CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTION
Suggestion
Based on the findings and discussions of the research, the researcher offers ideas that address the teacher, especially the EFL teacher and the next researcher. Sherry, one of the younger students, was taken to the hospital with bruises on her abdomen. Although cases of bullying are common, it is unfortunately not seen as a major problem.
A recent survey conducted by the National Child Protection Commission showed that more than half of bullying incidents go unreported due to the fact that it is considered normal in some parts of society. It is estimated that hundreds of children miss school every day due to the fear of being bullied by other students and in some extreme cases they choose to home school, or in severe circumstances they stop studying altogether (http://www.bullyingstatistics.org /content/facts-on-bullying.html). Since bullying is common in our society, it is important that everyone should be made aware of this social evil.
Accepting bullying in any way, shape or form means that you are taking part in it, whether directly or indirectly by remaining silent. Some people may consider taunting someone as funny, even if it is anything but funny to the person on the receiving end. It is very possible that bullying can occur at your school, so it is the responsibility of each student to protect their classmates and try to stop bullying.
Remember, bullying is everyone's problem; therefore, everyone must be part of the solution. To say what you hope for the future, use the present ( or the future, although it is less common:. He learned how to make the desert bloom and the plants of the earth increase their abundance.
Perhaps more than at any other moment in the history of the world, society, government and statesmanship must be based on the highest code of morality and ethics. Perhaps this fear is a greater danger than the danger itself, for it is fear that drives people to act foolishly, to act thoughtlessly, to act dangerously. How can we say it is dead, as long as large areas of Asia and Africa are unfree.
During the discussion with the teacher and classmates, offer your personal reaction and understanding of the text. If you were given the opportunity to give a speech to all the presidents and prime ministers of the world, what would you talk about?
