For instance, the statement “The trains are always late” is only true if what it describes is the case, i.e., if
it is actually the case that the trains are always late. This is false in Auckland. Sometimes trains are on
time, and sometimes they are early. Someone may impatiently complain that the trains are always late
to express their exasperation with the train system, but strictly speaking what they say is false

It is true that bananas have no bones, and I do like bananas, but I like bananas because they are tasty
and healthy, not because they have no bones. I would thus say something false if I said “I like bananas

There are many arguments both for and against the application of the death penalty. Many people in

And many times i have convinced myself that a shirt looks good when I try it on at the store, just

Some current debatable / hot issues that I'm concerned about is violence on television.

Some people believe that violence on television and in computer games has a damaging effect on the
society. Others deny that these factors have any significant influence on people's behavior.

For example, if children are experienced to violent on a series, they could understand that it is normal
behaviour between people, and they would treat in the same way to friends. In fact, not only a
teenager, but also adult people might be affected by visual media.

I strongly believe that the authorities in each country should set the rules about the restriction of using
television and video games according to age groups. because social platforms and especially media have
a significant impact on people’s daily life, and most importantly, on societies.

no one wants their bad points to be exposed. Astrological signs are often quite generic so we can relate
to ourselves as much as possible. and they are often accompanied by positive statements or predictions.
The effect has shown us that people will see their own personality in any zodiac sign.

There are pictures of this creature on the internet.

Some soul research organizations have found that the weight of the person after death is slightly
reduced, they believe that this difference is the weight of the soul, thereby confirming the existence of
the soul. Some soul research organizations have used a special advanced optical instrument to project
the dying person. They discovered that there is a light that separates from the human body before
death, right after that, the person actually enters death. They think it is the soul and the human body
being separated.
