Olive Oil

How olive oil is made

Producing olive oil is a fairly long and difficult process but if you follow these steps you should end up with good quality oil.

First, between September and December, the olives are harvested by hand or with sticks and rakes. Then they are collected on nets beneath the trees. After that, leaves and small stones are removed and the olives are run through a washer to remove any impurities before crushing. Then, within 24-36 hours of picking, the olives are crushed by granite millstones. The olive paste obtained is layered on mats which are put under pressure from a screw or hydraulic press. The liquid produced is collected and put through a centrifugal separator to separate the water and impurities from the oil. Finally, after centrifugation, the oil is obtained.

Superior olive oil is amber in colour and opaque. The less acidic the oil, the better the quality.

Reflection 3

Sometimes I have to use the present passive in process essays, so I have to use is or are + past participle.
For example:

The most important note is how to use irregular verbs in the correct way.
The rest of a process essay is similar to a procedure essay like linking words which are First, Second, Then, After that, Finally and the introduction, the main and the conclusion.

The UAE and Brunei

The UAE and Brunei are similar in many things. First of all both are beautiful countries and both are safe, modern and organized. The UAE and Brunei are Islamic countries and both have a kindly, helpfull and friendly population. In addition both countries have a strong economy and good concern in industry, education, health and sports. Also both have large natural resources of gas and oil.
Both the UAE and Brunei are different in many ways. For example the location of the UAE is in the Middle East whereas Brunei is in the Far East. Another difference is the language. The UAE speaks Arabic, but Malay is the language of Brunei. Also the weather is totally different. In the UAE it is cold or hot, but in Brunei the weather is moderate all the time.
Both are interesting countries and have a lot of wonderful places. Although both are oil countries, they have a big concern in tourism. There are many places to visit and many things to do. Both have many 5 stars hotels, a lot of malls, museums, beaches and parks. I think the UAE is more active in different sectors than Brunei. Also the UAE is more modern than Brunei, but the last one still has wonderful natural and quiet areas.
