What is school for ?
What is school for ?
School is where you prepare for the future.
It has classroms, it has more computers and other commodities.
It is to study in:
What can we do to improve our future ?
Poem based on Philip Larkin's, Days.

How to write numbers in English
This is the list between numbers zero to twenty.
If a number is in the range 21 to 99, and the second digit is not zero, one should write the number as two words separated by a hyphen.
In English, the hundreds are perfectly regular, except that the word hundred remains in its singular form regardless of the number preceding it (nevertheless, one may on the other hand say "hundreds of people flew in", or the like)
So too are the thousands, with the number of thousands followed by the word "thousand"
In American usage, four-digit numbers with non-zero hundreds are often named using multiples of "hundred" and combined with tens and ones: "One thousand one", "Eleven hundred three", "Twelve hundred twenty-five", "Four thousand forty-two", or "Ninety-nine hundred ninety-nine." In British usage, this style is common for multiples of 100 between 1,000 and 2,000 (e.g. 1,500 as "fifteen hundred") but not for higher numbers.
Intermediate numbers are read differently depending on their use.

Oxford
Oxford is a cold city , it love a famous university. The University I've some important museums, Brigdes and libraries. Oxford i'ts beatiful and it's have a lots of shops, films, restaurants, bars. There are a lot of opportunities to do many things. It's nice to live there. However the city is too busy with students and tourist and I've have a lots of people in a small city. I think Oxford would like me because it has a lot of thinks to do.
