The UAE between the past and the present

There are some countries which are developed faster than the others. I am going to write about one of these countries. The UAE was one of these countries which showed a big development in the last thirty years. In this essay I’m going to compare and explain life in the UAE in the past and in the present.
There are many aspects which are similar between the two periods. The first similarity is that in both periods the same Arabic people are using the same language. In the past the number of educated people was lower than the present which is reaching 90% of the UAE local. The students are going to schools and colleges to study as opposed to the past where they used to go to the mosques, but in both situations people were willing to learn as much as they can. Although there are many similarities between the two ages, there are some differences between them. One of the differences is that people used to live in extended families, whereas nowadays families are more common. People used to live in houses built with clay and stones, but nowadays they are living in high buildings and villas.
As we can see, there are similarities as well as differences between the past and the present. In my opinion, the present is much better than the past. I really hope that my country will keep developing, so my kids will get a better style of living.

How to make butter by hand


The flowchart below shows the procedure for how to make butter by hand. Making butter is very easy. I am going to discuss and describe all steps.

First, we have fresh milk and have to check the quality and fat content. Second, leave the milk to cool. Then, separate the cream. After that, place the butter in a jar. Next, churn the cream. After that, wash the butter with cold water to remove remaining buttermilk. Next, add a small amount of salt for flavor. Then, cut and wrap the butter. Finally, store the butter in a fridge.

As you can see, the procedure is very long but if you follow it you will make good quality butter.

ATM

I am going to write about an ATM machine or cash point where customers take amoney in many places in the country.

Fifty years ago, people received their salaries or their money by hand and that was very dangerous because if they lost their money they lost all of the salary of the month. In the modern years there are ATM machines. The ATM machines make life easy and help to keep their money in a safe place.The ATM machines are in many places likes banks,supermarkets,colleges and a lot of places. In every ATM machine there is a small camera to watch around the machine to keep the place safe from thieves . When you want to use the ATM machine ,you must insert your Visa card in the machine . Then choose the language ,then write the amount of money that you want to take .

I think this invention is very good because it makes the life easy and safe for the people and I am sure here are many people happy with that machine.
