In other words, whatever the cause may be, it is equally dangerous. It has a lot of harmful consequences. Flood damages the living conditions and it takes a lot of time to recover from this disaster. Therefore, the consequences of floods must be known and steps must be taken to prevent it.

After-effects of Flood

Floods interrupt with the day to day functioning of the affected area. The severe floods sometimes cause mass destruction. A lot of people and animals lose their lives due to floods. Several others are injured. Floods also bring a rise in diseases. The stagnant water attracts mosquitoes causing malaria , dengue, and more illnesses.

Furthermore, people face power cuts due to the danger of electrocution. They also have to face expensive pricing. As the supply of food and goods gets limited, the prices naturally grow higher. This creates a big problem for the common man.

Most importantly, the whole country faces economic loss. The resources needed to rescue people and tackle this disaster demands a hefty amount. Plus, the citizens lose their houses and cars which they worked all their lives for.

Subsequently, floods also hamper the environment. It causes soil erosion and this degrades the quality of the soil. We lose out on fertile soil. Similarly, floods also damage flora and fauna. They damage crops and displace trees. Thus, the measure should be taken to avoid these grave consequences.

Ways to Prevent flood

The government and citizens must work together to formulate ways to prevent floods. Proper awareness must be spread about the steps to take when floods occur. Warning systems must be set up so people get sufficient time to save themselves. In addition, areas that are more likely to have floods must have tall buildings above the flood level.

Other than that, dams must be constructed strongly. The use of cheap materials causes dams to break. The government must ensure there is a quality building of dams to prevent floods.

In short, we cannot prevent natural causes like rain and the melting of glaciers. However, we can stop the manmade causes like breaking of dams, poor drainage system, installing warning systems and more. We should take inspiration from countries like Singapore that never experience floods despite having heavy rainfall for most time of the year.

Do you have any other suggestions for me? Regards, Samantha In about 80 words, write an email to Samantha to give her some advice. Model Answer To: [email protected] From: [email protected] Subject: Do not bottle up your feelings! Hi Samantha, First of all, I want you to know that it is completely normal to feel demotivated. However, you should try to talk to your parents about your feelings. It is important for us to share our feelings with other people so that they can help us find a solution to our problem. If you find it hard to talk about your feelings, you can write down the things that you want to say on a piece of paper. The most important thing is not to keep your feelings bottled up. I hope you will enjoy your online classes. Regards, Samuel USEFUL TIP When you offer a suggestion, you can give some ideas on how your suggestion can be carried out. 4 PART 01 SUCCES ESSAY PT3 1P.indd 4 14/09/2021 2:47 PM English PT3 Part 1 – Emails Model 2 Family Outing Model Question Read the following email from your cousin, Mei Ling.

Model Answer To: [email protected] From: [email protected] Subject: Family Outing Hi Mei Ling, A family outing during the weekend is a great idea! I wish to go on a trip too.

You can also build sandcastles or collect seashells. Once you are tired from all the excitement, you can have a relaxing picnic with your family. I think you and your family will have a blast at the beach! Regards, Jun Hong USEFUL TIP The subject of an email should briefly summarise what the email is mainly about. 5 PART 01 SUCCES ESSAY PT3 1P.indd 5 14/09/2021 2:47 PM English PT3 Part 1 – Emails Model 3 Class Party Model Question Read the following email from your class monitor, Fikri.

Pizzas come with many types of toppings so we can have a variety of flavours. It is also a lot of fun to share a pizza with friends. Besides, pizzas are more convenient as we can hold it with our hands. We do not need to prepare any plates or cutlery. From, Cindy REMEMBER! Your answer should be approximately 80 words long.

To: [email protected] From: [email protected] Subject: I am coming home this weekend. Hi Ashraf, I am coming home from the university this weekend.

Model Answer To [email protected] From [email protected] Subject Trains are the best! Hi Ashrul, I am glad you are coming home. Let’s catch a movie together when you are back. I think you should take the train. The train is fast and comfortable. It will save you a lot of time as it only takes 2 hours to reach our town from your university. It is also much cheaper compared to taking the plane. The train station is only a stone’s throw from our house so we can meet you there when you arrive. Your brother, Ashraf REMEMBER!

Lucas, I hope your first day back in school after the Movement Control Order (MCO) went well. Don’t forget to sanitise your school bag once you are home. There is a sanitising spray and sanitising wipes in the cupboard next to the door. Please let me know which type of sanitiser you prefer as I will be to the supermarket after work. Mom In about 80 words, write a note to your mother to tell her your choice. Model Answer Mom, I think I prefer to use a sanitising spray to sanitise my school bag and shoes after school. As my school bag is quite bulky, it is easier to use a spray. It is also more economical since a single bottle of spray can last for a few weeks. On the other hand, sanitising wipes have to be replaced regularly and they create a lot of rubbish since we have to throw them away afterwards. Please buy more sanitising sprays when you go to the supermarket later. I also need a bottle of hand sanitiser to bring to school. Lucas USEFUL TIP You can add extra examples of your own as long as they are related to the main topic to make your answer more interesting. 9 PART 01 SUCCES ESSAY PT3 1P.indd 9 14/09/2021 2:47 PM English PT3 Part 1 – Messages/ Notes Model 6 Note – Movie Time Model Question Read the following note from your mother. Tasha, We are going out for a movie tonight. Would you like to watch a comedy, a horror film or an action movie? Or would you like to watch something else? Please let your Dad know so he can book the tickets. Mom In about 80 words, write a note to your Dad to tell him your choice. Model Answer Dad, Please book the tickets for our movie date tonight. I would like to watch the new action movie, Ending Game. The movie is about a police officer whose children were kidnapped. I think it will be full of action and very exciting. The main actor is also a very talented actor. The movie was shot in Switzerland so it will be very scenic and different from what we have seen before. I think you and Mom will really enjoy this action movie. Tasha REMEMBER! You must choose from one of the options given in the question or suggest an idea of your own. 10 PART 01 SUCCES ESSAY PT3 1P.indd 10 14/09/2021 2:47 PM English PT3 Part 1 – Messages/ Notes Model 7 Message – Spend Time Together Model Question Read the following message from your friend, Suzy. Lily, I will come over at 11 a.m. tomorrow. Should we play board games, read magazines or make some desserts? Or do you have something else in mind? Let me know what you think so I can bring the things we need. Suzy In about 80 words, write a message to Suzy to tell her your choice. Model Answer Suzy, Why don’t you come over at 10 a.m. instead? That way we can spend more time together. I think we should make some desserts. I recently found a new recipe for chocolate cupcakes. It is made from dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate. I think it will be really delicious. We can decorate the cupcakes with some sprinkles and give it to our parents as a surprise. Don’t forget to bring your apron when you come over. I am sure our dessert will be delicious! Lily USEFUL TIP At the end of your answer, you can restate your choice to give it more emphasis. 11 PART 01 SUCCES ESSAY PT3 1P.indd 11 14/09/2021 2:47 PM English PT3 Part 1 – Messages/ Notes Model 8 Note – Family Dinner Model Question Read the following note from your sister, Melissa.

I would like to have Western food. We just had seafood last weekend so I want to try something else. Besides, my favourite food is pasta. The new restaurant is famous for their pasta dishes so I really want to check it out. They are also having a promotion right now. They have set meals for families which will be suitable for us. Zachary REMEMBER! Provide a few reasons to support your answer. You can also talk about why the other options are not suitable. 12 PART 01 SUCCES ESSAY PT3 1P.indd 12 14/09/2021 2:47 PM C Informal Letters Introduction 13 PART 01 SUCCES ESSAY PT3 1P.indd 13 14/09/2021 2:47 PM English PT3 Part 1 – Informal Letters Model 9 My Penpal Model Question Read the following letter from your penpal, Justin. 22 March 202_ Dear Darren, As you know, the All England Open finals took place yesterday.

As an avid badminton player yourself, what do you think about the two finalists: our national representative, Lee Zii Jia and the famous player from Denmark, Viktor Axelsen? From, Justin In about 80 words, write a letter to Justin to share with him your thoughts. Model Answer 23 March 202_ Dear Justin, Yes, I agree that it was indeed an exciting match especially during the final set! Although they are both very talented players, my personal favourite is definitely our very own, Lee Zii Jia! His badminton skills are very good and he is only 23 years old. His young age makes his achievements even more impressive. Did you know that he is from Kedah? As a fellow Kedahan, I feel very proud that we have an international athlete from our state. I look forward to his performance in the badminton world after this. From, Darren USEFUL TIP If you run out of ideas for your essay, you can try to relate the topic to your personal life or feelings. 14 PART 01 SUCCES ESSAY PT3 1P.indd 14 14/09/2021 2:47 PM English PT3 Part 1 – Informal Letters Model 10 Join the Club Model Question Read the following letter from your friend, Sarah. 12 April 202_ Dear Iqbal, I want to take part in some co-curricular activities.

From, Sarah In about 80 words, write a letter to Sarah to give her some advice. Model Answer 13 April 202_ Dear Sarah, How are you? It’s good that you want to take part in co-curricular activities. I think you should join the Reading Club. Reading is a very beneficial pastime. You can gain a lot of general knowledge from reading. You can also improve your writing skills. By joining the Reading Club, you can get to know other people who love reading too and meet people who share the same interests as you.

As we all know, one of the most important SOP is wearing a face mask at all times when in school. Recently, a survey was carried out by the Prefect Board to see if students are following the SOP. It was found that some students have not been disposing their used masks properly. Students have been carelessly leaving their used masks on the ground or in their desk drawers. The situation is especially bad after recess and right before school ends. It is important to not simply discard our used masks. Firstly, it pollutes the environment. It is also very unhygienic. If the mask is contaminated, it will expose other people to harmful bacteria and viruses. Moreover, it troubles the cleaning workers who will have to pick up after these irresponsible students. According to the SOP, used masks must be folded and tied with the earloops so that they do not unravel. Then, they should be wrapped with a layer of tissue paper before they are thrown into the dustbin. The school should put up posters about this matter around the school. This will remind students to follow the SOP at all times. Finally, the Prefect Board will also keep an eye on the students. Anyone who does not follow the SOP will be directly reported to the Discipline Master. This will ensure that the school remains safe during the pandemic.

Downside of recycling Concept of Imported waste recycling Imported waste Proper waste Illegal recycling management factories Write your article. Introduction • Explain the concept of recycling 225 PART 02D SUCCES ESSAY PT3 1P.indd 225 14/09/2021 3:27 PM English PT3 Part 2 – Theme: Environment Body • Downside of recycling – incorrect way of recycling – risk of pollution • Imported waste – from other countries – earn money • Illegal recycling factories – not monitored – bigger chance of pollution Conclusion • Stress on the importance of proper waste management Model Answer Imported Waste Recycling is the process of turning old unwanted materials into new materials that can be reused. This way we will use less of the earth’s natural resources that are depleting at a fast pace. Many types of materials can be recycled such as paper, metals, glass and plastic. However, there is also a downside to recycling. When it is not done correctly, recycling can lead to pollution. For example, some materials are not suitable to be recycled. These materials are often burned or buried in the ground. If they are burned, the burning process will release dangerous chemicals into the air. If they are buried into the ground, they will contaminate the soil. Apart from that, there is the issue of imported waste. Imported waste is when a country imports waste from another country for recycling. This is mostly done to earn money from the recycling process. Malaysia is also involved in the business of imported waste. In 2018, Malaysia imported more than 1 million tonnes of waste from countries such as the US, the UK and South Korea. However, much of the waste were imported through illegal means. The recycling factories are operating without permission from the authorities. In other words, the recycling process is not monitored. As a result, there is an even bigger chance of air and soil pollution as well as other environmental damage. In conclusion, proper waste management and recycling are important for Malaysia to become a truly well-developed country. This includes the issue of imported waste as we also do not want to become the rubbish bin of the world. WORDBank resources – materials that can be used depleting – becoming less damage – harm 226 PART 02D SUCCES ESSAY PT3 1P.indd 226 14/09/2021 3:27 PM English PT3 Part 2 – Theme: Environment Model 112 Earth Day Celebration Model Question Speech You have been asked to deliver a speech in conjunction with Earth Day celebration in your school.

This day was created by American Senator, Gaylord Nelson, to make people aware of the importance of keeping our planet healthy and clean. Earth Day is a perfect time to reflect about what you are doing to help protect the environment. Today, I would like to suggest three simple activities that we can carry out to save the earth. 227 PART 02D SUCCES ESSAY PT3 1P.indd 227 14/09/2021 3:27 PM English PT3 Part 2 – Theme: Environment The first activity is to learn more about the environment. Earth Day is a good time to make a commitment to learn more about the environment and how we can help to protect it. Read up on an issue such as pollution, endangered species, water shortages, recycling and climate change. Alternatively, learn about a region you have never encountered before, like the Arctic, the desert or the rainforest. Then give a short presentation to your class to share what you have learnt. The next activity is to cook a special Earth Day meal. Plan a menu that introduces locally produced food which is healthy and has minimal impact on the environment. Use vegetable and bean products as these use less resources to grow. If you would like to eat meat, look for locally-produced organic meat. Lastly, look into your closets and cupboards, and remove the things that are no longer useful to you. By giving away your old toys to younger children, you will learn two lessons. One is about giving to others and the second is about reusing and recycling instead of discarding things. Encourage your parents to do the same with their clothes, electrical appliances and books. Every one of us can do something to help the planet on Earth Day. Although our individual efforts may seem like a drop in the ocean, everything we do to help the planet counts, such as opting to walk to school or helping to clean up litter from our neighbourhood park! Thank you. WORDBank IDIOMS encountered – discovered or experienced a drop in the ocean – having a small impact – the effect of something impact on an important issue discarding – throwing away INFO CORNER Recycling one aluminium can saves enough energy to listen to a full album on your Ipod.

Many residents in the low-lying areas were trapped at home due to the rising water level. Several main roads, including Jalan Nyabor and Jalan Central were submerged. Among the affected buildings were the Sarawak House shopping complex, two hotels and a petrol station. Heavy rain and flood waters overflowing from the Upper Rejang River have worsened the situation. An official at the state flood operations room said that the river had remained above the alert level for the past three days. She said that five roads in Sibu outskirts were under 0.5 metres of water and inaccessible to small vehicles. These roads include Jalan Salim, Jalan Stabau and Jalan Bawang Assan.

The house, which is situated at a corner lot, is overgrown with weeds and strewn with rubbish. The house has been in this filthy condition for the past two years. The Chairman of the Residents’ Association, Encik Rashid Abdullah, who lives opposite the house, said that the house is a good hideout for drug addicts. Coincidentally, the occurrences of petty thefts around the neighbourhood have also been on the rise recently. His house has already been broken into twice and he says that he fears for the safety of his family. The house has also become home to stray dogs and cats which are a nuisance in the area. Residents living nearby have to endure the stench emanating from the house. A resident, who wished to remain anonymous, said the windows are so dirty that even if he stands close to them, he will not be able to see the inside of the house. He urged the Shah Alam City Council to take action against the owner. Shah Alam Councillor Puan Ana Razak said that the council would send a notice to the house owner, ordering him to clear the rubbish within seven days. ‘If the owner fails to do so, the council will clean up the house and bill the owner for the costs of the clean-up,’ she added.

The fire brigade was called in at around 3.00 p.m. Thick smoke billowed as the fire spread quickly due to the current dry spell and strong winds. 234 PART 02D SUCCES ESSAY PT3 1P.indd 234 14/09/2021 3:27 PM English PT3 Part 2 – Theme: Environment Twelve firemen in two fire engines from the Teluk Bahang Fire Station brought the blaze under control by 7.00 p.m. Teluk Bahang Fire and Rescue Department Chief Samsul bin Zakaria said a lack of water supply had hampered the firemen’s efforts to extinguish the blaze. Firemen were forced to utilise water from a nearby lake to supplement the water supply. As a result, he said, the firemen took close to four hours to bring the raging flames under control in the hilly area. There were no reports of property damage in the area.

The first problem concerns the access road to Sunnyvale Park. At present, there is only one main road servicing six residential areas, including Sunnyvale Park. When it rains heavily, the road gets flooded, thus blocking off the only means of access for residents. The problem has been highlighted in the newspaper many times, but nothing has been done to solve the problem. The residents want another road to be built as an alternative. The second problem is the lack of public transportation servicing Sunnyvale Park. The nearest bus stop is located some two kilometres from the entrance to our neighbourhood. Not all residents have private vehicles and it is inconvenient and taxing for residents, especially senior citizens, to walk that far. We would like the authorities to consider extending the bus route to cover our area. The residents have also been without telephone lines since we moved in six months ago. When we contacted the service provider, we were told that there was no urgency to install telephone lines as most people had their own mobile phones. We feel that this is a feeble excuse. It has caused a lot of inconvenience to those who cannot afford mobile phones. 236 PART 02D SUCCES ESSAY PT3 1P.indd 236 14/09/2021 3:27 PM English PT3 Part 2 – Theme: Environment Lastly, we need a dedicated space for the night market, which is currently in an inconvenient area and causes traffic congestion. The situation is worsening as the number of stalls is on the increase. There are many improvements that need to be carried out in Sunnyvale Park. It is hoped that the town council will take the necessary steps to remedy the problems as soon as possible.

The 30-kg reticulated python, also known as the batik python because of its body patterns, was later released back into the wild. Civil Defence officer, Lt. Muda Karim Hussin said the villagers alerted the unit after the snake caused a scare in the village on Sunday night. He said it took about an hour for the personnel to capture the python. ‘When we arrived here, we saw the snake heading towards the thick bush. We had to wait for an hour before our professionals managed to capture it,’ he added. According to the professionals, the snake had to be captured as it was dangerous and could swallow a goat or even a little child. The villagers were relieved that the snake had been caught and that there were no casualties or reports of property damage in the village. Lt. Muda Karim advised local villagers who encounter such snakes not to try and catch them on their own. They should instead call the professionals and monitor the whereabouts of the snake while waiting for help to arrive.

We saw many logging tracks on the hill near Empangan Batu in Ulu Yam, which can only be seen from the top of a hill in Taman Selayang Mulia. According to a resident, illegal loggers seem very adept at dodging law enforcers and they move to another site when one is raided. For example, lorries carrying timber from an illegal logging area in Selayang Utara are sneaking out at night through the residential areas to evade the authorities. Another resident, who lives near the site, said he used to see huge 16-wheeler lorries laden with timber emerging from the jungle at night opposite his house. However, he said that now all is quiet. He suspects that the lorries are using a different route and, as evidence, he pointed to the logging track visible on the hill. The residents hope the Selangor Forestry Department and the Selayang Municipal Council will put an immediate stop to the illegal logging activities in the area.

Introduction:

Flood, simply put is an overflow of water from several sources. The nature of the world is to have dry land and water. When water gets on dry land in large quantity flood is said to have occurred.

Causes of Flood:

There are several events that can lead to a flood.

A few of them are highlighted below:

1. Heavy rain pours.

2. Melting ice and snow.

3. Rising sea levels and the overflowing river.

4. Bad drainage systems.

How Flood Affects our Environment:

A flood is by far a negative occurrence. Heavy flooding can have a damaging effect on our environment and the infrastructures in it. First, they can destroy houses and make them inhabitable. Also, they can remove sand from farmland making it difficult to grow crops. Aside from the above, flooding also contaminates clean water causing diseases and ailments.

Conclusion:

Governments around the world can reduce the risk of flooding by building a solid drainage system. We as individuals could also help by stopping drainage blockage.

Any dry land filled by excess water is called flood. It is a natural calamity caused due to several factors.

Reasons for Flood:

The reasons for floods can be natural and unnatural caused due to human activities. When there is excessive rainfall in river banks and coastal areas, there is an increase in water level which leads to overflow of water into the nearby dry land. Also, natural calamities like earthquakes cause Tsunami in oceans which leads to flooding of lands close to beaches. In heavily populated cities, due to congested buildings and roadways, flooding happens as there is not enough room for water to drain. In such cases clogged drainages lead to even more flooding of the area.

Global warming has resulted in the melting of glaciers which increase water levels of rivers and flooding of river banks. Deforestation also plays a major role in flooding.

Effects of Flood:

Floods cause large scale destruction to life and property. Buildings, roads and bridges are heavily damaged. Vast acres of crops are destroyed. Arable lands turn barren and clogged with salts. Countless homes and cattle get washed away. All electronic and digital communication seizes. Many lives are lost. And it does not stop there. Post flood, there is a huge risk in the spreading of water borne diseases. Scarcity of food and basic necessities arises. On the whole, floods cause multiple hardships and turn the livelihood of affected people upside-down.

Effective weather forecasting systems are to be maintained by the Government for timely intimation and evacuation of flood prone areas which will greatly help in keeping the many losses due to floods in check.

Flood is a natural disaster that involves overflowing of water over a region of land that is dry under usual conditions. It submerges the area with water. They are the most common kind of weather-related disasters and are a costly hazard. The level of flood can vary a lot – from a few inches to a level that goes up to meters high like a roof level of a house.

The causes of floods are many. They can happen during heavy rains when the drainage system is unable to handle the amount of rain fall. It can also happen even if low levels of rain occur continuously for many days. Floods can occur when the snow melts as temperature changes and it can result in bulk movement of water in the plains. Rivers can overflow sometimes and create flood in the neighboring regions. They can also be a result of breaking of dam which can flood the nearby areas.

There has been increase in the frequency of floods recently. Because of global warming, the average temperature of sea has increased significantly. This has led to higher rate of tropical storms in the Caribbean. It is also responsible for increase in sea level because of melting of ice caps and glaciers.

Floods cause large-scale loss to life and great damage to properties. Floods cause severe damage to agricultural regions of the affected area. There is loss of life of humans as well as animals. People and the government both suffer from loss in financial terms. Re-building of affected areas takes a lot of time and money.

In India, there are many regions which are affected by floods. Some of these are the Gangetic plains, coastal Andhra Pradesh and Orissa, Brahmaputra valley and South Gujarat. Within this year, more than 70 lakh people were affected by floods in India.

Flood is one of the recurring natural disasters which is an outcome of above average rainfall and accumulation of excessive water in every living area. Floods may occur due to overflow of water from the reservoirs or due to heavy down pour of rain in places where the drainage systems are not properly maintained.

Water may look so harmless and peaceful until the large quantities termed Floods harms us.

Common Causes of Flood:

Some of the common causes of Flooding are Heavy Rains, Overflowing Rains, Broken Dams, Urban Drainage Basins, Storm Surges & Tsunami’s, Channels with steep sides, lack of vegetation and melting of snow and Ice. Although the causes of floods are varied, most of the causes can be managed if not prevented.

Global Warming and Floods:

Another primary factor of Flood is increase in the atmospheric temperature i.e., Global Warming. Heating up of earth’s surface can lead to melting of ice glaciers and ice caps which leads to the rise in sea level thereby leading to overflowing floods in the coastal regions. Global Warming brings instability in the climatic condition of the earth, where one part of the world experiences floods and the other goes through drought.

Consequences of Flood:

Floods mostly disrupt the normalcy of living things on the planet. Floods are a great threat to the living things; floods also make way for mosquitoes to thrive thereby leading to all communicable diseases such as malaria, Dengue etc. Another impact of floods is loss of drinking water . Floods also lead to power cuts, damage of crops and soil erosion. Floods can also have an economic backslide, thus putting the country at risk.

Preventing Floods:

Some of the measures that can be done to prevent Floods are:

i. To ensure the meteorological departments are well equipped to provide flood warnings to the indicated zones.

ii. Flood resilient homes with efficiency to waterproof homes and moving electric sockets which moves higher as the flood rises.

iii. Protecting wetlands and planting trees systematically can help alleviate the direct floods.

iv. Stop encroaching of river beds and allowing the rivers to take its natural course can drastically bring down floods.

Floods can be scary, but it is in the hands of human beings to ensure it doesn’t impact our daily life. Water storing areas such as ponds, lakes and other water reservoirs should be maintained. Floods can be avoided by improving the soil conditions thereby allowing easy water absorption. Flood barriers can be used as a defense during Flood crisis.

Floods can either occur naturally or they can be facilitated by environmental factors that destruct the flow of water. Flood incidences have increased due to global warming. Global warming is an adverse effect of environmental pollution that causes a rise in temperatures on the earth’s surface. Global warming is associated with intense climatic changes like heavy storms, snowing and raised sea water levels. These changes in climate contribute to flooding. A flood is the spilling of water on dry land surfaces and causes it to submerge. It occurs when water overflows from the water bodies beyond its usual boundaries. Floods are destructive to the environment.

Types of Floods:

There are three main types of floods. Surge floods are floods that occur in the coast regions due to surges and tidal changes that occur in the sea or ocean. Hurricanes and storm surges on the sea or ocean can cause minor, moderate or major floods. The extent or severity of the floods are determined by the strength, size, speed and directions of the surges. Surge flood are usually severe and massively destructive.

Another type of floods is fluvial floods that occurs due to overflow of rivers. Rivers overflow due to heavy rains that increase water levels in rivers beyond its capacity therefore resulting in floods. Heavy snowing can also cause fluvial floods when the ice melts. Fluvial floods are risky when dams are involved because the increased levels of water in rivers creates immense pressure that cause increase pressure on the walls of dams and cause breakage which results in excessive flooding and environmental destruction.

The other type of floods is pluvial floods. Pluvial floods are caused by surface water as a result of heavy rainfall. Pluvial floods are destructive because they disrupt the drainage systems and cause an overflow which affects structures. Pluvial flooding occurs together with surge floods and fluvial floods. Although pluvial flooding does not involve a lot of water, it causes massive destruction of the environment and the infrastructure.

Causes of Floods:

Floods occur naturally due to some environmental factors. Heavy rains can cause an overflow of water form water bodies. Breakage of water body boundaries like riverbanks or walls of dams. Catastrophes like tsunamis and surges in storms cause heavy flooding. During heavy rains the lack of vegetation on the surface of the earth.

Adverse Effects of Floods:

Foods are destructive in nature and have negative impacts on the environment and the ecosystem. Floods cause death of living things and humans. Destruction of property and infrastructure negatively affects the economy of the region affected and economic activities are at a standstill due to disrupted livelihoods. Migrations from areas that are prone to floods is common, which results in overpopulation in urban areas. Financial constraints are experienced due to the rehabilitations from flood destructions. Prevention of floods that result from natural causes is a challenge.

In conclusion, it is evident that floods are destructive. The adverse effects of floods affects normal livelihood and the environment.

Flood is one of the natural calamities which is known to wreck a lot of havoc. There are so many different instances wherein floods are known to damage the whole area and bring massive loss of life and property as well.

Let us check further into the possible causes of flood and how we can eradicate it too.

The Causes of Flood:

Of course, there can be a lot of different cases of floods. Some of the key ones among them are as follows.

Heavy rains: owing to climate changes, many a times, it so happen that it rains torrentially. If the rain is much above normal, it can lead to flooding.

Broken dams: Dams help in keeping the water level in check. If the dams get broken sometimes, it is likely to lead to flood.

Tsunami: Natural calamities like tsunami is likely to create problems of flood and can bring massive loss of life and property.

Global warming: Owing to the increase in global temperature, the ice cap is melting and the increased level of water in the river bed is going to cause a flood.

Of course, there can be a lot of other reasons too which leads to flood and it is important to keep an eye on the water levels to issue a warning well in time.

The Mitigating Steps:

Now that we know the key causes which leads to flood, let us focus on some of the best mitigation measures which you can take to steer clear of this problem.

Flood Warning System:

This is by far the most important thing which one needs to do. It is important to have a sound flood warning system in place. When you have a dedicated system, it can help warn people who can move to higher altitude or take the right steps.

Restore Rivers to their Natural Courses:

Owing to the excessive development work which we have been carried out and harming the environment, too many rivers have diverted from their natural courses. This is another important reason for excessive flood. So, the right thing to do is to help in restoring the rivers to their natural course as it may prevent flood.

The Global Warming Remedial:

Action must be taken to cure the problem of global warming as it is definitely the cause of too many natural disasters. By choosing to cut the level of air and water pollution and minimizing the use of non bio-degradable products, we may be able to directly or indirectly help in controlling the problem of flood and its aftermath.

Modern Day Construction:

While flood is a natural calamity which may sometime come unannounced, it is important that we construct buildings in accordance with the modern technical advancements. The buildings should be so made that they are above the flood levels and they should be sturdy enough to withstand flood as well.

So, these are some of the important points which you should keep in mind. While some of them are ways by which we can prevent the implication and aftermath of flood, a few of them would help in preventing its occurrence as well.

Whenever any calamity occurs, it is important to do your bit to create awareness. The kind of destruction which can happen is whopping. By knowing about it a little ahead of time helps people be better prepared for it.

The bottom line remains the fact that we should all try and minimize the negative impact we are having on the environment. Doing this will ensure that we will be able to curtail the frequency of natural disasters like flood.

Flood is simply defined as the overflow of a very huge quantity of water that covers a very large area of land and leads to the destruction of land and properties and sometimes lives in the areas that are affected. A lot of regions in the world experience flooding every year. A flood basically occurs when there is excessive rain and there is no proper or good drainage system. The amount of flood is different from place to place and the extent of destruction also varies. For the overflow of water to be classified as flood, the area of land affected has to be mostly dry. Flooding can also happen as a result of water overflowing from bodies of water like lakes, oceans and rivers. Floods cause mass destruction. The effects and destruction caused by flood can take many years to fix and repair.

There are a lot of causes of flood; a few of them are discussed below:

1. Heavy Rains:

As discussed earlier, flood is mostly caused by an extended period of rain. This can happen if the quantity of rainfall is a lot more than the capacity of the drainage system. Flood can also be a result of high intensity rainfall in a short period of time.

2. Snow Melting:

Mountains that were covered with snow in the season of winter start to melt once temperature begins to rise. The sudden rise of the temperature causes the snow to melt and this leads to the massive movement of a lot of water to the plains and lands around. If the area receiving the water does not have a proper and good drainage system that will help in getting rid of the large quantity of water, there is going to be flooding. Flood that is caused by snow melting is also called a snowmelt flood.

3. Dam Breaking:

Dams are constructed to be able to hold the water that is flowing downwards from an area of land that is higher. The energy of the water can be used to turn and power propellers that can be used for the generation and creation of electricity. The dam can sometimes break when they can’t hold a large quantity of water and this causes the areas nearby to experience flooding. Sometimes, excessive water can be released intentionally by the dam to stop the dam from breaking which also results in flood but the flood from the intentional release of water isn’t as harsh as that from the dam breaking.

4. Water Bodies Overflowing:

Rivers and other water bodies can overflow sometimes and this leads to a situation that is flood like in the areas nearby. The areas that are low lying and are near the water body are the ones that are affected the most during the periods of water overflowing downstream.

5. Coastal Region Winds:

Hurricanes and very strong winds have the ability to carry sea water into coastal lands that are dry and this is a serious cause of flood. The coastal regions can experience severe damage and destruction. Tsunamis and hurricanes are widely known causes of serious devastation to areas of coastal lands.

Apart from all of the causes of flood discussed above, it is very important to note that the major cause of flood is global warming. The frequency and rate of flood has drastically increased recently. Researchers have said that the average temperature of the sea has wildly increased because of global warming and it has led to the increased sternness and rate of storms that are tropical in and around the Caribbean. The storms are said to have caused the countries in the region experiencing heavy rainfall. Global warming causes an increase in the atmosphere’s temperature and also causes the ice caps and glaciers to melt which in turn causes flood in a lot of regions. Global warming is believed to have a very major effect on the ice caps at the poles and it is believed that the situation is only going to get worse with time.

Overall, the climatic conditions of the earth have gone through a lot of very major changes and it is believed that global warming is the main cause of all of the change. It is believed that global warming is the reason why there is extreme drought in some places and serious flood in other places. Even though there isn’t much we can do about the glaciers melting or rain, we can do our part by building very good and reliable drainage systems that can handle water.

What is a flood? In normal terms, the excess availability of water in a region then it can usually hold is called flood. Floods are usually heard of it in news and through channels as every year, large portions of India are drastically affected by floods. It is mainly during the monsoon season with the onset of rain, we hear of different floods and the havoc they have caused to humans, animals and plant life. It is, therefore; very important to understand what floods are all about?

Types of Floods and their Causes:

Flood is not just the excess rainfall we talk about. There is a lot more to it. For instance, there are Flash Floods in which there is a sudden heavy downpour due to a cloudburst and the entire area is flooded within minutes. In India, areas in the states of Himachal Pradesh, Jammu and Kashmir and Uttarakhand witness occurrence of flash flood every year. Similarly, we have river floods in which the areas around a river are flooded due to the swelling of the river. Some parts in Delhi witness river flood every year due to the overflowing of the river Yamuna due to excessive rains and the excess flow of water from the Hathnikund Dam. Another type of floods is the inland flooding . In the case of inland flooding, the area witnessing a rainfall get flooded with the roads and lanes all filled with water. This happens usually when proper drainage system is not in place or is inefficient due to severe blockages which obstruct the flow of water and leading to flooding of lanes and roads in the city. Again, Delhi and Mumbai are cities which see such floods even after an hour of continuous rainfall. People living in coastal areas are prone to coastal floods . These floods are usually caused by high tides or Tsunami which bring huge volumes of water on the land thereby flooding it. Another reason for coastal floods is global warming due which the rise in sea level temperatures has led to the subsequent rise in water level in coastal areas. Coastal areas of Kerala, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and Orissa witness such floods every year.

Deadliest Floods in Indian History:

India witness floods every year in different states. In fact, some regions are sure to be flooded with the onset of monsoon season. However, there have been occurrences of the flood which have caused massive destruction and hence are termed as the deadliest floods. Hence there is a need to know about them so as to understand and analyse what can be done in order to minimise such destruction in future years.

Deadly floods are a common occurrence in India after every few years. One of the deadliest floods in recent times was the flood in Gujarat in the year 1979 in the Machhu Dam-II. The Machhu Dam-II flopped on Aug. 11, 1979, discharging the full power of the Macchu River on the town of Morbi. The flood thus created in western India caused somewhere around 1,335 deaths, as per the Press Trust of India at the time.

Another of the deadliest floods in India is the one that shook Bihar in the year 1987 in the Kosi River. In any case, the Kosi River is prone to floods and is flooded almost every year. However, this year was particularly exceptional. The most decimating surge in Bihar’s history happened in 1987, when an avalanche obstructed the Bhote Kosi River, making it surge and crush more than 1.7 million homes. As per the statistics of the state, government flooding led to the death of 1,399 individuals and 5,302 animals.

The Tsunami that struck coastal India in the year 2004 was another such disaster which engulfed a number of lives. An extent 9.0 quake under the Indian Ocean on Dec. 26, 2004, set off a tidal wave that crushed southern India. As per the Government statistics 10,749 individuals died, 5,640 went missing and 2.79 million people were affected by the wave. It likewise devastated 11,827 hectares of products and demolished the occupation of 300,000 fishermen.

The Recent Kerala and Kedarnath Floods:

The most noticeably bad climate-related floods in India’s history happened in June 2013, when a few days of overwhelming precipitation activated blaze surges and avalanches in the northern territory of Uttarakhand. The downpour struck amid the bustling visitor season in Uttarakhand when a huge number of Hindu pilgrims rush to the region to visit its memorable sanctuaries. The rain happened some time before the start of rainstorm season, getting numerous off guard. An expected 4,094 individuals died and about 1 million were influenced by the catastrophe in Uttarakhand and neighbouring Himachal Pradesh, the worst affected being the region around Kedarnath. The military was brought in to evacuate around 100,000 people from rocky parts of the state, where they had turned out to be caught by the avalanches.

The recent floods in Kerala are another perfect example of how human activities have led to calling of nature’s ire in different forms such as floods. Had it there been a proper drainage system with no blockages, Kerala would not have witnessed such a massive flood.

The Need for Action:

We must not forget that older civilisations emerged around rivers and seas only and they just vanished with time due to the ever-rising water level on the earth. With the recent back to back occurrences in Kedarnath and Kerala, it is high time the Government as well all of us sit down and think what harm we have done to nature. The blooming of industrial units with no waste management in place, the inefficient drainage system and the careless attitude of both the Government and the people are all collectively responsible for these disasters. Not all disasters can be avoided, but, at least measures can be taken to minimise their impact or at least the ones caused by own carelessness can surely be avoided. It is for own good and for the benefit of future generations that we all do our bit to protect the life on earth from the backlash of nature.

Long Essay on Flood 500 Words in English

Flood is one of the recurring natural disasters, which is an outcome of heavy rainfall and the accumulation of excessive water in every living area. Floods may occur due to overflow of water from the reservoirs or due to torrential downpour of rain in places where the drainage systems are not adequately maintained. Water may look so harmless and peaceful until the large quantities termed Floods harm us.

Floods can take place naturally, or environmental factors that destroy the water flow can help to facilitate them. As a result of climate change, the occurrence of floods increased. Climate change is a detrimental result of deforestation, which allows temperatures to increase on the surface of the earth. Global warming is linked to intense climatic changes such as heavy tempests, snow and rising seas. Such atmospheric changes lead to flooding. A flood is the leak and submergence of water on dry ground surfaces. It occurs as water flows outside of the normal limits from water sources. Flooding is environmentally destructive.

There are three main types of floods. Surge floods are floods that occur in the coastal regions due to surges and tidal changes that occur in the sea or ocean. Hurricanes and storm surge on the sea or ocean can cause minor, moderate or significant floods. The extent or severity of the floods is determined by the strength, size, speed and directions of the surges. Three main flood types exist. Surge inundations represent floods that take place in the coastal regions as a result of sea or ocean fluctuations. Hurricanes and sea or ocean storm can cause small, modest or debilitating flooding. The volume or magnitude of the flux depends on the strength, size, velocity of the floods. Usually, flooding is extreme and enormous.

Pluvial floods are another form of a flood. Surface water due to excessive runoff causes pluvial inundations. Pluvial floods are damaging as they disrupt the drainage networks and create systemic flooding. Pluvial drainage and rain and erosion occurs. While pluvial floods do not involve much water, the environment and infrastructure are massively destroyed.

Naturally, some environmental factors are responsible for floods. The overflow of water forms of water bodies can cause heavy rains. Boundaries of bodies of water such as banks of the river or lakes are breached. Massive flooding causes disasters like tsunamis and storm uprisings.

Floods harm the ecosystem and the habitat and have a detrimental effect. Floods cause death to both living and human beings. Destruction of land and infrastructure has a devastating effect on the impacted region’s economies, and commercial development is at a standstill due to damaged livelihoods. Migration from flood-prone areas is regularly leading to overcrowding in urban areas. The rehabilitation of flood destruction is causing financial constraints. It is a challenge to avoid floods caused by natural causes. In conclusion, the disruptive essence of flooding is clear.

It was the rainy season and, for one whole week, the rain poured . The water level in the river rose steadily until the water spilt over, flooding many low-lying areas.

My village was one of the areas affected and we had to move our belongings to higher ground. There, we waited for rescue teams to arrive. The whole village was submerged in about one meter of water. The currents were swift and merciless, sweeping away livestock and furniture.

Red Crescent members could be seen busy old folk, women and children trapped by the rising waters. Flood victims were taken to a Flood Relief Centre. Here we were given hot drinks, porridge and milk for the babies. Some had to be given clothes and blankets as they could not save anything in time.

After three days, the rain subsided and the flood waters . It was such a relief to see the sun again. Flood victims began to move back home, to clean up the place as well as to assess the damage.

537 words essay on Scene in A Flood Affected Area

537 words essay on Scene in A Flood Affected Area. Flood is one of the highly devastating natural calamities. It is a regular phenomenon in India. Every year thousands of lives are lost in flood. Lakhs of people are rendered homeless.

Property worth cores of rupees is washed away. Every year government spends hundreds of cores of rupees to rehabilitate the flood victims. Thus, flood creates an extra burden on the exchequer.

The sight of flood affected area is horrible. Last July I got an opportunity to visit my ancestral village in Darbhanga district of Bihar. My uncle lives there. I was caught in flood. At the same time, I got a chance to have a horrible experience there. One night I was fast asleep, suddenly I woke up to hear a loud noise. Water had entered the house. The barrage on the Gandak River had broken and the river was overflowing its bank. People were fleeing for their lives. My uncle’s house is a three-storeyed building. People had come there to have a rescue. I was also woken up from the sleep, as I had slept in the ground floor. I along with so many people was asked to move to the second floor. People were alarmed. They were mostly those people living in mud huts. They were crying for their belongings. They had fled empty handed. They had left all their belongings in their homes which were certain to be washed away by the flood.

Image Source: 185.26.182.219

In the morning, I went to third floor to have an overview of the scene. I was shocked to see the terrible sight. There was nothing except water there. In some far-off places huts appeared as tiny small toys. Poles, pillars and trees were submerged in water. At some remote places people were standing on the roof top to escape from being washed away in flood. A large number of cattle were seen being flown away in mighty current of flood. Standing crops in large expanse of areas were washed away. There were no activities. Life seemed to have come to a halt.

People had nothing to eat. Therefore food packets were being dropped for them. There was an occasional noise of flying helicopters. The flood victims had rays of hope in their eyes to get something to eat. The next day the administration made arrangement for the food and shelter of those victims. The ravage of the flood continued for two-three days. Then the water began to recede. People took a sigh of relief. There was joy of returning to their homes. At the same time they had the bigger challenge to re-start their lives. Mending their homes, arranging their cattle, starting agriculture, were a few questions which they had to solve. Though the government gives financial relief to the flood victims. Unfortunately, they fail to reach the needy and the targeted. They are sucked in the mid-way. So, the naked reality of life is to be faced on their own.

The tragic scene of flood has haunted my mind. I still shudder at the mere thought of those scenes. But to millions of Indians this is a stark reality which they are destined to face routinely every year. Government should do something serious to sort out this problem.

my flood experience essay pt3

  • suggest ways to prevent snatch theft

55 comments:

Thank you for the very useful tips. I'm wondering about the word limit though. The question says to write between 120 to 150 words. How closely do we have to follow it?

my flood experience essay pt3

This is a bit tricky because it all depends on your school teacher. My advice is ask your teacher what to do and listen to her. MOE has given the guide lines but it's still up to the respective school teachers to allow the number of words for students to write because at the end of the day it is they who are going to mark the papers.... As for my students I ask them to write 250 words.

my teacher said we can use more than 150 words.. I wrote 319 words on the pt3 trial

Teacher can I send my essays to this blog for marking?

I'm quite busy with my work right now.....but, you can send your work and I can check it for you when I have the time....ok! Send it to this email add [email protected]

teacher, may I ask your opinion on what should I do in order to widen my vocabs? My teacher told me that my vocabs seems to be limited,though.afterall, I'm not a person that can read a dictionary. Plus, if I've got questions regarding this subject, may I email you?

Reading is one way you could increase your vocab base.For example, read the local STAR newspaper. Look for news about crimes, road accidents, flood etc and jot down the terms used for describing the incidents. You can a scrap book to write down the vocabs...later, go through them and try to use them in your writing... All the best...! ***You may email me for personal development only not for your school work or school assignments...ok!

my flood experience essay pt3

Teacher could please teach me full format for article? :)

Hi Huda, There is no specific format for an article. Writing an article is just like writing a normal essay. Give a 'TITLE' for your article and depending on the question, you can write for example.... by Huda at the left end corner of your article.

Teacher~~~~~where r u now

I was busy, therefore no time to check on my blog....I'm still quite busy with my lesson plans....Yes, is there anything I can help you with, Huda...?

Hi how to write the third paragraph ? Help me pls��������

Dear student, let me be firm here....I do not believe in giving fish to my students-no matter how hard they ask for it- I believe in giving them the fishing rod. I just tell them to go fish themselves for I have taught them how to fish and also given one or two fish to them....In current global scenario, one must learn to be independent and not rely too much on teachers for help. Therefore, I would strongly encourage all you students out there to give your best and learn from mistakes---to be an expert angler one needs to be very patient and skillful -- same goes with writing an essay....!

Teacher where r u ?

I wrote 403 words for my PT3 Essay trials today. The word limit is the same and 4 points were given but they required us to give two more points of our own aswell. I'm wondering if any marks would be deducted? If so, how many and will it effect my grade a lot?

You have written a very long essay - I am sure your teacher will penalize you because the required words are roughly 180 - depending on your teacher's discretion it can be 200-250 words. Anything more than that is way too long....but, it all depends on your teacher.

Did you write anything about the beach.....?

Teacher how can i remember the vocabs...sometimes when i don't know about the meaning of the words..i search it in the dictionary but i'm still cannot remember it until tomorrow...why...i don't think that i must always chek out it in the dictionary when i'm gonna to use that word..i mean hear not just one word but more than that...i don't know what i'm suppose to do...especially for my essay...if my vocabs are limited and lack..how can i make the good essay for pt3 this year...can you help me teacher(helpful teacher)..?

From what you have mentioned I can see that you do really put a lot of hard work to improve your English vocabularies...it's a good start Aiman....but, as you know there's no short cut to success...therefore, in order to improve your vocab-do a lot of reading and writing essays in English and ask someone to check them for you...the best person would be your teacher....All the best Aiman...

Teacher how can i remember my new vocabs..?for example,when i am reading for a book...the wimpky book.i found one word that i normally seen it before but do know its meaning...i find it in the dictionary but tomorrow i lost everything about it....i'm trying to remember it but i can't..why teacher..?how i can fix my problem to improve my english for my pt3 this year??can you help me??

Good afternoon,teacher.I am writing essays recently and posted them on my blog.I hope teacher can check and comment about them. This the link: http://studytogether1234.blogspot.my/search/label/PT3%20Essay

I write this essay and hope teacher can check it. Snatch theft cases have been bandied about by the public.Local dailies also shows that the number of snatch theft cases escalating and ringing alarm bells across the country.Recently,I became an eye witness of this cruel action.The incident just occurred right in front of my eyes. It was a windy day and I was walking to my school for my extracurricular activities.I was striding on a leisurely way as the weather was favourable.On the opposite road,Mrs. Tan,my neighbour was waiting to catch a bus for work.I waved to her but she did not notice me as she was engrossed texting on her handphone.I continued my walk to school. On the opposite direction of road,there was a motorcycle coming furiously.Their faces were covered with helmets.I did not give much thought about them as I was going to late to my school.Out of blue,the motorcyclist zoomed past her and the pillion rider snatched Mrs. Tan's handbag.She had butterflies in her stomach when she felt a strong tug on his handbag.She tried to get back her handbag.He held her handbag strongly.Mrs. Tan screamed at the top of her voice for seeking help.The pillion rider kicked her in cold storage and they successfully snatched her handbag. I was stunned at that moment.I could not think of anything.However,I managed to note the registration number of the motorcycle.I quickly ran to Mrs. Tan and tried to lend a hand to her.She was in trauma.Her arms were bruised.I quickly decided to call the police and lodged a complaint.I also called Mr. Tan,her husband to bring her back home.Mr. Tan,drove his car as fast as lightning and arrived at the scene in the nick of time.He brought his wife to the clinic which is a stone's throw from that place. I was frightened by the incident.Upon walking to school,I was thinking about the incident.I was sad for Mrs. Tan and at the same time angry with the thieves.They were willing to harm the other for money without humanity.I hoped not to be a witness of this incident again in the future. Safety precautions have to be taken in order to prevent from being a snatch theft victim.Snatch thieves usually home in women who become a sitting duck.In order to be safe,women should learn martial arts to protect them.Besides,we should not walk in deserted lanes alone.We should also be on the lookout of suspicious people.Lastly,do not flaunt money and valuable in public places.As the saying goes,prevention is better than cure.

You have written quite a lenghty essay. Good for you Sathya... 1)Snatch theft cases have been (bandied) about by the public- what is "bandied" in this context. 2)Some of the words used do not fit in or are inappropriate. 3)Sentence structure and grammar needs improvement. 4)Use appropriate adjectives... *Overall it is nicely written...keep up the good work and all the best...! ReplyDelete

Bandied means discussed by the public

dear madam, thank you for your sharing. i want to ask you on the last question in pt3 exam. it is on the novels. is it a compulsory question? as in my school, we never have a single question on the novel in our previous exams. i hope you may clarify on this. thank you.

Yes, it is a compulsory question and I am not a madam(lol).

Thank you for your sharing, it is really helpful. May i ask you a favor? i have a problem, which i do not understand clearly about the novel, how i met myself. how should i write it to get full marks? thank you in advance.

Sir/madam can i know?? Article essay same with another essay or not

Article 1. Must have a 'TITLE' 2. Writer's Name/Signature 3. 5 paragraph essay That's all....

hello madam is there any tips for pt3 this year

hi,I'm really appreciate this essay.So,can i ask if 'I witnessed the incident,so how should i do?"and what should i express for the feeling

You're welcome..as for your question,you can read my sample essay above.

Whenever I write an essay,I have trouble controlling the number of my words and keep writing 370 to 500+ words (And sometimes more which annoyed and impressed my teacher at the same time) Any tips on how I can write shorter essays?

My suggestion :- Intro - 20 words Point 1 - 35 words Point 2 - 35 words Point 3 - 35 words Conclusion - 25 words Total words of 150. Now, this is just a simple format which you can try and use. Ask your teacher how many words (max)she would allow you to write and then do your own arrangement...ALL THE BEST!

Thank you very much for the useful notes. I know how to plan it but I couldn't really describe it amazingly to impress teacher when I start to write especially the bombastic word/phases. How can I elaborate it as teacher did above? My elabrote quite sucks

Dear Anonymous, one the most common reasons why students find it hard to express their thoughts is due to lack of reading articles or books or anything which had got to do with English. Reading materials written in English will help them to write better essays.Plus reading also will increase one's vocabulary list and sharpen their style of writing.

Teacher, may I send teacher some of my essay for teacher to mark? I really hope to improve my english before the major examination arrives

Now I'm free and I don't mind checking your essay...(you caan send it to this add (https://drive.google.com/drive/my-drive)try and see if cannot I'll give my email add....

May I know how I can improve my descriptive essay skills?

Hello. May I know how will you guide your students to write during PT3? According to the KSSM format, you can only write LESS THAN 150 WORDS. During the real PT3 exam, are we allowed to write more than that? According to my teacher, I shouldn't. Moreover, my teacher has 100% not taught me the technique for the 150 words essay. As students, it is extremely complicated to write less than 150 words. I need some explanation. SO, FOR THE PT3 2019 AND SO ON, ARE WE ALLOWED TO WRITE MORE THAN 150? TQ.

Hi, a good question. Well, personally, it is difficult to write a 120 words essay if you are good but if you are not then it is not a problem.Yes, in the previous PT3 exams, students were allowed to write more than 150 words but in the new 2019 PT3 format, students are advised to write about 80 words for PART1 and about 120 words in PART 2. The reason is to train students to write within the limited word scope and not to drag too much on unnecessary explanations.

Hi teacher..may I ask you something??Can I just make the essay very simple..means, I just make it short..just kind of 1 paragraph???Can I do like that in my exam??It is because I'm always forget to do more than 1 paragraph in my essay (exam) because the time is too short actually..For me, I should make an essay story for 1 hour actually.But, it doesn't mean that I got too many ideas come out but I'm too weak to do essay in exam

No, you are not allowed to write in one paragraph. If you find it hard to write 5 paragraph, you can try a 3 paragraph essay that is INTRO(1)-BODY(1)-CONCLUSION(1). Start with an INTRO (first paragraph). Cram all your points in BODY (second paragraph-one paragraph) and close it with a CONCLUSION (third paragraph - one paragraph). Keep it all in the limit of 120 words if you can.

Hi teacher..Can I ask you something?? By the way, I'm a bit confused on making conclusion in my essay actually..I'm not really understand on how to make it..Can you give me some tips?? Will you??

Hi WawaZzz, very interesting comment. Writing a conclusion for English essay is a bit tricky because it depends on the type of question and essay format. If, the format is a letter then you can use the type of conclusion I have given in my sample letter essays on this blog but if it is a different format then you have to write a proper conclusion for it. There is no so called right or wrong conclusion for the English essay. For more tips on writing essays read my sample essays on this blog and watch my videos on my https://www.youtube.com/user/Kopitiamenglish ...ok

Hi teacher!.Can I ask you somrthing? Why you use proverb?

It helps to spice up your essay. Proverbs also can be used to teach and educate your readers.
