Have you ever heard Gen Zs who were born roughly between 1997 and 2012? Some of them have been adults. Different from people who were born before them, they grew up with technologies, such as high-speed internet and smartphones. As a result, most of them are more likely to do everything online instead of in person. They get information from social media which also changes their ways of making friends. Just shaking your phone, the people who shaking their phones at the same time will be show on the screen. It sounds fun, and you can choose one of them to be your friend. You can also seek for the people who live nearby and send a request to them for making friend with them. Though it looks like more and more people making friends online, in fact, just more and more Gen Zs have grown up. Recently, I have heard another new word, Gen Alpha. Though all of them are still children, I am afarid of saying more about what they will be as adults. If friends are still necessary for them many years later?or friends have been replaced by robots.

Hello Italki tutors! Would be grateful if you could check my IELTS response to Writing Task 2 on the pic. Many thanks in advance!!! Child obesity levels are increasing dramatically all over the world. This essay will first suggest that the biggest causes for this are sedentary lifestyle and abundance in junk food and then argue that the government could resolve this issue by introducing nutrition lessons at schools and supplying canteens with healthier products. The foremost reason for children obesity is sedentary lifestyle. The more time they spend indoors glued to their phones and computers instead of engaging in outside activities with their peers, the more overweight they become because of the calorie surplus. Furthermore, being exposed to a wide range of foods, which are oftentimes not so healthy, children’s calorie intake increases, making them gain more weight. For example, there is a large number of fast-food restaurants in Kyiv, and when young students return from schools they often stop by such places and buy these foods instead of eating staple meals at home. Possible solution to this problem would be to introduce nutrition courses at educational establishments. When added to education curriculum, students would gain more knowledge about eating healthily and restraining from unnecessary mealtimes. Furthermore, if schools purchased wholesome alternatives, pupils would gain less calories. In other words, if instead of juices and cookies, schools procured fruits and berries, and cooks prepared sugar-free compots, children would maintain a healthier diet and be less prone to obesity. To conclude, children become obese when not move around enough and fall for unhealthy foods. However, if governments urged schools to educate children about nutrition, and purchase healthier products, this problem could be solved.

TBLT is used in its original meaning to refer to genuine Task-Based LT (language teaching), in which ‘task’ is the unit of analysis at every stage in the design, delivery and evaluation of a language course. Such tasks can include visiting a doctor, conducting an interview, or calling customer service for help. This makes TBLT especially popular for developing target language fluency and student confidence. The difference between the two is that while task-based teaching/learning refers to a teaching approach based on meaning-focused tasks, with little attention given to grammar, in task-supported language teaching "tasks are seen not as a means by which learners acquire new knowledge or restructure their inter-languages, but simply as a means by which learners can activate their existing knowledge of the L2 by developing fluency" (Ellis, 2003: 30). A significant advantage of genuine TBLT is that appropriate structures, vocabulary and collocations are retained in the input provided by pedagogic tasks (positive evidence), since that input is elaborated to achieve comprehensibility, not simplified, as in traditional grammar-based course books, with the loss of genuine usage that is entailed. For example, the same task will usually be more or less difficult for learners with or without background content knowledge or of lower or higher L2 proficiency. Task-supported LT simply means use of miscellaneous pedagogic tasks unrelated to learners’ real world needs to practice items in a synthetic linguistic syllabus of some kind, usually a traditional grammatical, lexical or notional-functional syllabus. TST offers learners a more meaningful engagement and a more negotiated syllabus than CLT and TBI when conducted in three phases: planning, acting and reflection. Task-supported LT suffers, therefore, from most of the well-known problems (irrelevance to student needs, psycholinguistic implausibility, boring lessons, etc.) characteristic of skill-building approaches that
