  1. Nicky, I want you to work on the C&C topic, which seems to be an informative essay. Do not rely on the personal experience and opinions. Rather, go to this website:http://www.wunderground.com/,and find substantial examples that show the differences between Guangzhou and Urbana. Again, don't simply say "the sun is too shiny in Guangzhou while the sunshine is friendly in Urbana." Since we're working on ACADEMIC writing, it's always significant to be objective when you mention facts.
