Age of Marriage

The bar graph shows us the decline, over the past few decades, in percentage of women aged 15-19 who are married in many Arabs countries. The table gives us the age of first marriage for men and women in many Arab countries, plus Turkey and Iran.

From the chart graph we figure out that the percentage of women between fifteen and nineteen who are married has fallen during the past few decades. The UAE had the most dramatic fall in the percentage of young women who are married, followed by Libya and Kuwait.

The table of age of first marriage demonstrated the men’s marriage were in the mid and late 205.On the other hand the women’s marriage was in the early to mid 205.

UAE saw the most dramatic fall in the number of teenage brides. In addition the women marriage in the other countries dropped considerably which means more women these days are facing difficulties in marriage.

Traffic congestion

Traffic congestion is a serious problem anywhere in the world but in the island of Abu Dhabi its worse because if a main street is blocked it causes a delay in almost all the island. Now I’m going to discuss the causes and solutions of traffic jams in Abu Dhabi.
First of all, the population increases all around the UAE. Another problem is that there are more females and young drivers. One more cause of traffic jams in Abu Dhabi is that there are more tourists which means more taxis and buses going around in Abu Dhabi. Another problem is the summer climate in Abu Dhabi. It is so hot that people have to drive instead of walking in over 32 C weather.
Now I’m going to discuss the solution of these problems. First we need more parking in Abu Dhabi and more fines for people who cause accidents. Second we need to make the application of driving licenses available at the age of 21. Third Abu Dhabi needs a policy on the taxis drivers and bus drivers that they need to have an experience on Abu Dhabi roads. Finally is the summer climate and because we have a high temperature in the summer we need a metro so people don’t use their own cars.
In conclusion, the most important problem is the population increase and the best solution to this is to make the important buildings outside the island.

Argument : Using moblie phones while driving

There are many cars accidents happening all the time all over the world, Also there are many reasons why people are having too many accidents. One of the big reasons is that people are talking on mobile phones while driving.
There are always two sides to any argument, Sometimes having your mobile phone with you in the car is helpful because there are a lot of things that the phones can do nowadays; for example if you don’t know how to get to somewhere you can call for help or you can use the phones maps. My friend was driving to KSA and his car broke down and he called for help so without his phone he will never get back to his home so it’s helpful sometimes.
Another side of this argument is that having your mobile phone with you in the car while driving is so dangerous because it’s a big distraction for the driver and as we know nobody can concentrate on two things at a time. A further view, a research that has been done in the UAE years ago shows that 30 percent of the accidents happening everyday are caused by drivers talking on the mobile phones while driving.
Having your mobile phone with you in the car while driving is no problem, but using your mobile phone while driving is a big problem. I think any device in life is helpful and made for purpose but you have to use it correctly.
