The Internet is for...

Globalization is coming upon us. One of the most powerful tools at its disposal is the Internet. The internet is a network, capable of transfering data between computers. This network consists of sites, online blogs, facebook and twitter.

The Internet is a good tool to express yourelf to the world. Blogs and forums were the first to indroduce this capacity. Afterwards came facebook and twitter, which introduced micro-blogging combined with social connections. In addition to communication, the internet introduces commercials. These commercials usually cost less than T.V commercials. These commercials can help small businesses rise.

However, the Internet is not safe. Sites like Facebook and Twitter tend to share more information with the world then(sp.) we(ww.) intend to. This makes cyber stalking, information gathering and harassment a lot easier. In addition to that, Facebook and Twitter sell the information they gather about their customers to advertisement companies(explain what is wrong about that).

In conclusion, I believe the internet is a good tool for communication. People around the world can meet and share. However, it is a dangerous place, and should be used with high care(phr.)

The Mezada

Israel might be a small country, but its far from being not interesting. It has beautiful sights, old historical sites and even new and modern cities. Israel has a little bit of everything, but one thing stands out the most.

Mezada, This place Includes a big historic event. It has magnificent architecture and a breath taking view. Lets begin with the history, Mezada was built by Antioch because he was certain that someone is(gr.) going to attack him. He built a fort on top of a mountain. Inside the fort there was a big palace. The architecture is(gr.) amazing, and Antioch overcomes(gr.) tough problems by amazing engineering.

However, the place has another story. When the Romans wanted to kill all Jews in Israel, a group of them gathered in Mezada, which was long ago abandoned. After the Romans found them there, they attacked the fort. The Jews did not want to give the romans the pleasure of killing them, so they just committed suicide.

Mezada is an architectural wonder and a place with a great tale of bravery. This is the perfect place to visit when you come to Israel.
This is great, but you were supposed to pick an opinion essay topic, not a description. However, you've done a great job, so I'll grade your essay anyway.

The is A hidden I in team.

There are generally 2 types of sports. Team sports and individual sports. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages. Here I will discuss the difference and the benefits of each type of sport.

Team sports like soccer,(or) basketball etc... (מיותר) tend to have less individual skill(s) involved in them. That means that if one player is really good, while the rest of the team is not as good, the shining player might loose because of them. However, in Individual(sports) a different problem arises. If you are not a very good player, than your chances of wining are slim, and you can't use the help of (your) teammates, (like) for example, (in) chess,(or a) 100m runs(ww. - race).

I prefer Team sports because I like being able to support and being supported by my team. I think that the fun factor in team sport and co-operation is greater then(sp.) (in) individual sports. Also, I believe that sports is a great tool for making friends. Team sports encourages(gr.) communication and people can easily meet other people this way.

In conclusion, I think Team sports are slightly better then(sp.) individual(sports). However, individual (sports) has(gr.) its(ww.) benefits. I am a more(wo. - more of a) team based sport person.(phr. - player my self).
Quite good actually...
