After that the third paragraph will show the differences between the two subjects and the last paragraph will show the conclusion and I have to show my opinions in both subjects and show if I prefer one of them.

How to make olive oil

Olive oil is an important material in our food. It’s rich with vitamins and proteins. Today I will talk about how olive oil is made.

First of all, the olives are harvested by hand or with sticks. They are collected in nets beneath the trees. Then the leaves and stones are removed and the olives are washed before crushing to remove any remaining impurities .Then the olives are crushed by granite stones within 24-36 hours of picking. The olive paste is layered on mats and it’s put under pressure from a screw or hydraulic press. At last the liquid is collected and put through a centrifugal separator to separate water and impurities from oil. Finally the oil is canned or bottled and distributed in the market.

As we see the production of olive oil is a big process and it’s not easy. To make a good quality oil you shouldn’t keep the olives after harvesting for a long time, otherwise you will have a poor quality of olive oil.

Narrative writing contains 4 main paragraphs:

The introduction: the past continuous is used in it e.g: I was drinking water when Zayed cried.

Paragraph 2: we should describe what we saw e.g: suddenly the driver hit the man and ran away.

UAE & Brunei

There are many places tourists love to spend vacation in like the UK, Malaysia, Brunei, the UAE, and the USA. Today I will talk and compare about the UAE and Brunei. Both countries have similarities and differences. And I will try to focus on these two issues.

The most important similarity is Islam. Both countries are Muslim and they learn and study it in schools. Oil is another important thing ; both countries have big reservoirs of oil and they depend on it for their income. Also the two countries have hereditary monarchies , so there is no election system to choose the next president.

There are many differences. The climate in the UAE is very hot in the summer and cooler in the winter.In Brunei the climate is the same all the year. The driving system in the UAE uses the left side for the driver, but in Brunei they use the right side and the road is opposite. Also the currency in the UAE is the dirham, but in Brunei the currency is the ringget. The UAE is located in the Middle East region, but Brunei is located in East Asia.

I haven't been before to Brunei but it is as modern a country as the UAE and I hope I could visit it in the future.

Comparing between Abu Dhabi and Fujairah

I want to compare Abu Dhabi and Fujairah.In this essay I will list the similarities and differences between these two wonderful towns.

Like Abu Dhabi, Fujairah is a member of the union; both cities have the same culture and heritage. Both have their own ruler who cares about the interior situations. Both Emirates have an airport and sea port.

However, there are many differences. Although both Emirates have their own ruler, Fujairah follows the federal government in Abu Dhabi. Also Abu Dhabi has more big towers than Fujairah. Fujairah has more beautiful beaches than Abu Dhabi. Also Abu Dhabi controls a larger area of the UAE than Fujairah. Fujairah is cooler than Abu Dhabi most of the year, but in the winter Abu Dhabi is cooler because it’s desert.

In fact I like both Emirates. I’m from Fujairah, but I live, work and study in Abu Dhabi. Both Emirates have good advantages, but at the end I have to go back to Fujairah to stay there , die and be buried there too.

How to make orange juice

Orange juice is a very important juice. It contains Vitamin C which is important for use help cure the flu. Today I will talk about how the orange juice is made.

First the fruit is unloaded from the lorries .Then the fruit is graded to remove unwanted damaged ones. The good fruit is moved to the washer machine to wash it. Then it is moved to the sizer. After that the fruit is moved to the juice extractor . The waste is given to the animals to feed them. The juice enters the evaporator machine at a high temperature to kill any germs. Then the juice is sent to another stage to change the concentration of the juice. After that the juice is kept in refrigerated storage until the last stage which is the juice is canned and shipped to other countries. When the juice reaches the juice company, they will add some water to change the concentration of the juice. Finally the juice is bottled and sold in the supermarkets.

Many people think making orange juice is an easy job but it has to be done in several stages to make good quality juice before any one drinks.
