i understand that each year the grades at GCSE improve, but does this mean that the students are actually more able at their subjects?

Right. I know that GCSE results improve each year according to the grades people get. But does that mean the students are actually performing better? Is a student now better at thier GCSE subjects than a student a few years ago?

'poet'? When referring to the poet I usually use 'the lyrical self' but I'm sick of that one too.. so what are some others?

Also.. what are some other ways to mention the structure, figures of speech and so on in a poem? I usually begin each paragraph using 'structurally,....' or 'musically,...' but it gets annoying.

I'm writting a couple of essays discussing a couple of poem for school so I wanna be as formal and sophisticated as possible. Any tips?

Thanks in Advance!

The situation is girls and boys squabbling on My Space. Nothing is threatened to the person, nor was anything said to person about hurting in any way at home, or at school. Picture was sent to others stating only that person in the picture was a fake and a phony, and how to recognize a fake. Students called into office at school and threatened with "Cyber Stalking", and at parent meeting about incident parent also told student could be facing possible expulsion. Can the school intervene??? Person who was depicted "fake" had been taunting others for over a year! Person who posted picture of person had turned the other cheek for entire year, and posted picture like the straw that broke the camels back. Thank you, I need information ASAP!!

I wrote this poem when I felt really bad. It's entitled
World of Different People.

In this world we're living
You'll never know who's real
Some maybe pretending
While some just do their will

I hate to admit it
That most of us are fake
But we can't concede it
'Cause we are afraid

Some maybe true
And hope their your friends
Shows up when you feel blue
Friends are they until it ends

Your friends may not know
'Cause you keep secrets to them
But it's you who know
That you're not open to them.


Well, what's your opinion? If it's bad please tell me, I won't feel bad. Thanks!!!
