Here is some useful phrases from the article which i've read:

1) bring to mind. "The sight of beautiful, able-bodied actors wearing breathing tubes and living for the moment might bring to mind the 2014 hit The Fault in Our Stars..."

Example: I have a great idea! It's just brought to my mind

2) commonplace. "As well as becoming more commonplace, terminal-teen romances are becoming more medical, which is a double-edged sword."

Example: We all do commonplace things every day.

3)  draw some critisism. "Five Feet Apart has already drawn some critisism for glamourising CF, and promoting dangerous practice (the “six feet” rule is there for a good reason)".

Example:Many writers  had drawn some critisism in the 20th century.

4) to shy away. " The story, set entirely within a hospital, does not shy away from the oppressive treatment regime."

Example: Many criminals try to shy away from the punishment.

5) cliches.  "It is difficult to sneer at a movie about a real illness, even one that’s riddled with
 cliches..."

Example: There are a lot of cliches in modern films and books

    Hello Julia,

    thanks for your post.
    Some things to remember:
    Example 1: not quite right; you need to add what it brought to mind...an idea? some memory/recollection
    Example 3: why the Past Perfect?

    Did you find completing this task useful?

FOR AND AGAINST ESSAY Eating Meat is Good and Necessary for People Eating is the big part of our life. Meat is a product that plays an important role for human organism.Nowdays there are a lot of people who don't eat meat,and it is their choice. Moreover, there are a lot of arguments about eating meat is good or not.  First of all, meat contains a huge amount of protein,which is actively involved in the strengthening and development of our body. For example, it is involved in the creation of hemoglobin which supplies our blood with oxygen. Moreover protein is one of the basic nutrients necessary for human. The second point is that meat gives us strength, and especially for men it is very important to be strong. If we don't eat meat we become weak and lethargic. Another reason is that meat contains a lot of elements that are responsible for the quality of our skin,hair,nails, and without it, for example,our hair will fall out and nails will deterioate.

Blogpost One:Yayoi Kusama review-about as artistic as a lava lamp   Dear All, Recently I've read an article in the Guardian. I've chosen it because i saw the picture(which you can see below) on the first page, and i wanted to know what it is and it seemed to me interesting. This article was about Yaoi Kusama's instalation Infinity Mirrored Room in the Victoria Miro Gallery in London. The author of this article Jonathan Jones wrote about his impressions after he visited this place. He couldn't take this instalation too seriously, and he thinks that it doesn't reach  inside people's heads and they don't feel anything when they see it. He compares Infinity Mirrored Room with lava lamps. Jonathan doesn't consider that it is art, it is more like fashion show for him. Actually, i haven't heard about Yaomi Kusama before and i haven't seen her works,but when i saw a photo of this instalation i was impressed and i liked it.  Also in the...
