The use of formalin and other dangerous preservatives in food has been serious problem for three reasons.

Firstly, formalin is not for human beings, but it is for biological specimens and experiments. Formalin in Biology is a 10% solution of formaldehyde in water which is usually used as a disinfectant or to preserve biological specimens. Thus, it is not for food preservatives. Of course when it is used for food preservative, it will be very dangerous to human’s body.

The second reason is that there is no tight control from the government. This condition makes the people’s health is really in a threat. When the control is weak and the use formalin was spread wide all over the Indonesian regions, and these days it has really happened, the citizen's bodies will be badly contaminated with the poisons. Fish or food traders still sell their products which contain formalin and dangerous preservatives. Can you imagine that our digestive system absorbs the substance that should be for the human and animal corpses?

Considering the reasons, we can make a conclusion that the use of formalin and other preservatives is really a serious problem if it is not resolved immediately.

______

 

The main idea of paragraph three is ....

• The government has not controlled the use of formalin firmly

• The human`s bodies will be harmful after consuming the formalin

• The weak control of using formalin is not threatening the human

• The human`s bodies will be harmful after consuming the formalin

Most people live in the cities. As the result, the cities become crowded. In my opinion, living in a city is not fun as you think. There are some reasons to support my opinion.

First, living in the city can affect casdiovascular health. Because of larger populations, cities can have higher levels of population, including noise pollusion. This could be damaging to your health in the long term. Too much exposure to air polution and city noise may cause damage to a person’s cardiovascular health.

Second, houses are more compact in urban areas. There are often fewer green spaces. It means you may not always be able to enjoy natural spaces. As we know that green areas help people to recover faster from illness and stress.

The last is the higher cost of living. People typically think of when considering moving to a city. Normal living expenses such as rent and utilities tent to be higher in big cities and you may have additional living experiences you wouldn’t have in the suburbs such as parking permits and laundry.

From those reasons, do you still think of moving to a crowded city?

Every year there is new evidence that comes out about the benefits of eating fruits and vegetables so naming all the reasons could take all day.
