About comments


What has the comments others have posted on my blog 
taught me about my own writing?

 Thankfully enough, some people commented on my blog posts about my writing. They've  pointed out my spelling mistakes that I usually make, corrected my grammar errors, and suggested better sentence structures for me to write a better paragraph. Every single comments were very helpful to me. They made me to be careful about spellings, to learn more about grammars that I didn't know, and to think before writing about fancy sentence structures.    



What have the comments I have posted on other blogs 
taught me about writing?

 I'v never commented on other students' writing before, so it was very unique and positive experience for me. While commenting on the blog posts of others, I could find a lot of mistakes and errors. It was strange that I couldn't find a single mistake on my own writing when I wrote it, but I was able to find other student's mistake very well. I figured out that this is not because I am better at writing. It's because I simply don't pay attention when writing. The comments I have posted on other blogs taught me the attitude. I should write my writing with the feeling of commenting my own writing just like l did to others.

Reasons and Examples paragraph


Smoking is good for nothing


 Smokers should quit smoking as soon as possible for three reasons. First, smoking defects human body badly. According to National Health Insurance Service -(1), carcinogen -(A) rate of smokers is 6.5 times higher than nonsmokers. Smoking will squeeze your life span. Second, smoke made by smokers effect other people around. That means, smokers are harming nonsmokers every second. Research team of the World Health Organization says -(2), six hundred-thousand people over the world die every year due to passive smoking. This is such a public harm that every nonsmokers want to eliminate and, this is why Korea's government decided to expand non-smoking area recently. Final reason is about public order and environment. Smokers tend to spit on the ground anytime abruptly. They also illegally throw cigarette trash on the road. Cigarette butts -(B) are one of the world's biggest garbage and, almost 3.5 trillion cigarette butts are trashed every year. Moreover, contrary to common thoughts, cigarette butts need several years to be decomposed in the soil. -(3) This is a very serious problem to our mother nature. In other words, Smokers are overtly violating public orders and also polluting environments. However, nonsmokers overlook their behaviors because there are so many of them doing it, but it's needless to say that nobody wants public places to become filthy with saliva and trash. In conclusion, smokers should quit smoking if they worry about their own health, other nonsmokers' health, public regulations and environments.
