        	        	<description><![CDATA[<p>Hello Guru</p>
<p>Thanks for this essay.</p>
<p>It’s nice and simple and generally reads well, especially the second paragraph.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000"><strong>Topic Sentence: I’m Confused!</strong></span></p>
<p>However, the third paragraph is a little confusing. The problem is with your <span style="color: #800000"><strong>topic sentence.</strong></span> Let’s look at your layout:</p>
<ol>
<li>Intro: A career is important, but other things are important too.</li>
<li>Para 2: A career is not enough. We are social beings, and we need good health.</li>
<li>Para 3: (I think!) We need careers to survive</li>
<li>Conclusion: We need a balance.</li>
</ol>
<p>This layout is fine, but look at the topic sentence for Para 3:</p>
<p>You wrote:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>
However, social networking and health <span style="background-color: #ffff00">is</span> also important thi<span style="background-color: #ffff00">ngs</span> in somebody’s life.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Should this be in Para 2? Maybe it’s a typo, or you reorganized your essay and forgot this sentence. Anyway it’s very confusing -  I had to read and re-read.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000"><strong>Word Choice/Word Form/Usage</strong></span></p>
<p>In the intro you wrote</p>
<blockquote>
<p>
<span style="background-color: #ffff00">As per</span> some people career has priority in person’s life</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Don’t use as per -  it’s <span style="color: #800000"><strong>meaningless</strong></span>, and in any case it’s from <strong><span style="color: #800000">antiquated business letters</span></strong>.</p>
<p>Here’s one possible rewrite:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>
For many people, careers are the most important priority in life.</p>
</blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #800000"><strong>Articles</strong></span></p>
<p>You have a LOT of article errors.</p>
<ul>
<li>'Career' needs ‘a’ or ‘the’ or to be plural –‘careers’ -  <span style="color: #800000"><strong>throughout the essay</strong></span>.</li>
<li>There are some other things which are also very important i<span style="background-color: #ffff00">n pe</span>rson’s life. →  in <span style="color: #800000"><strong>a</strong></span> person’s life.</li>
<li>There are many reasons wh<span style="background-color: #ffff00">y ca</span>reer is not only essential thing → …<strong><span style="color: #800000">a</span></strong> career is not <span style="color: #800000"><strong>the</strong></span> only essential thing…</li>
<li>First of all, <span style="background-color: #ffff00">h</span>uman being is a social animal. → First of all, human bein<strong><span style="color: #800000">gs</span></strong> are social anima<span style="color: #800000">ls</span> OR <span style="color: #800000"><strong>A</strong></span> human being is a social animal.</li>
<li><span style="background-color: #ffff00">Person</span> can get all these things from their family and friends. → <span style="color: #800000">People</span> can get all these things  OR   <span style="color: #800000"><strong>A person</strong></span> can get...</li>
<li>A person can aff<span style="background-color: #ffff00">ord hap</span>py and healthy lifestyle for their family → <span style="color: #800000"><strong>a</strong></span> happy and healthy lifestyle…</li>
</ul>
<p><span style="color: #800000"><strong>Conclusion: Check basic errors</strong></span></p>
<p>There are <span style="color: #800000"><strong>six or seven simple errors</strong></span> in the final sentence in your conclusion. Try to eliminate them. Don’t think they are unimportant or that you will be more careful in the exam - you won’t. You will be <strong><span style="color: #800000">tired, stressed and in a hurry</span></strong>. Get in the habit now of checking your work and editing as you go along.</p>
<p>Punctuation is also important, even in handwriting. It's easy - one space <span style="color: #800000"><strong>AFTER</strong></span> the comma or full stop - nothing before.</p>
<p>You wrote:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>
<span style="background-color: #ffff00"> I</span> my opinion<span style="background-color: #ffff00">, no doubt </span> to <span style="background-color: #ffff00">get</span> a success in  lif<span style="background-color: #ffff00">e pe</span>rson nee<span style="background-color: #ffff00">d</span> to pay more attention towa<span style="background-color: #ffff00">rd c</span>areer<span style="background-color: #ffff00"> ,</span>but<span style="background-color: #ffff00">  i</span>s very important to maintain a balance  between the other needs of a happy life<span style="background-color: #ffff00"> .</span></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Here’s one possible rewrite:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>
In my opinion, to be a success in life, a person needs to pay more attention towards his or her career, but it is very important to maintain a balance….</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Overall, it’s a nice clear essay with many good points, but the topic sentence in Paragraph 3 really confuses the reader. And watch out for those basic errors in agreement and articles!</p>

        	        	<description><![CDATA[<p>In present competitive era it is very important to pay more attention toward career. As per some people career has priority in person’s life .However, there are some other things which are also very important in person’s life.</p>
<p>There are many reasons why career is not only essential thing in a person’s life. First of all, human being is a social animal. A person cannot able to live without any social interaction. Every individual needs love, support, help and security from other members of society.  Person can get all these things from their family and friends. So, social networking is an important thing in a person’s life. Secondly, a person can establish a good career if he is physically and mentally healthy. An individual can do anything in life with a happy and healthy mind and body. So, health is a   priority of a person’s life.</p>
<p>However, social networking and health is also important things in somebody’s life. In this highly competitive time career is a prime need in person s’ life, because without any successful career it is very difficult to survive. A person can afford happy and healthy lifestyle for their family if he/she has a good job. It is a strong argument which supports that career is a most important thing in a person’s life.</p>
<p>I my opinion, no doubt  to get a success in  life person need to pay more attention toward career ,but  is very important to maintain a balance  between the other needs of a happy life .</p>
