Answer

It Ends With Us is a book I read recently. It's by the author Colleen Hoare. It's mainly a story about two teenagers, Atlas and Lily, and how they just handle their life going through high school, adolescence, and just domestic violence at home. Both of them come from very, very different families. However, they have one common determining factor between them, which is domestic violence. The abuse that they've seen their moms go through is just insane, and they connect through that on a different level. They're actually in the same high school, but they never speak to each other until Atlas actually crashes into an empty house next to Lily's villa. When Atlas is homeless and he doesn't have anywhere to go, he just comes and breaks into the house next to Lily's, and Lily helps him with all the daily necessities like clothes and food, medicines and stuff. Furthermore, their friendship blossoms into love, but it doesn't really fructify as Atlas has to leave. This book really gave me a lot of knowledge about domestic abuse and how to deal with it.

If I am able to create a new law in my country, I will generate a law of Project Completion, whereby governments complete a project, they execute a project, they implement it, whether from the new regime or the past regime, they should actually try to execute the project, there should be a continuation of project, not that when another president or another regime or government emerges, that they will abandon the past project, which leads to waste of resources, waste of money, waste of time, and is making the country to go bankruptcy, because they continue to waste money on unnecessary new development, when they have not finished or executed the previous plans and projects they have implemented.

I personally feel a new law for giving spaces to ambulance must be considered the first in my country as Bangalore is known as one of the far most country which is jam packed with traffic so I personally prefer there are new traffic laws that have been brought into the country so that the law gives a specific road only for ambulance to travel and no other vehicle will be allowed to travel in that particular lane. So this change would bring a major impact on the society of saving many people's life also many women during the pregnancy feel a hard time travelling during the ambulance so I feel traffic should not be one of the main concern when people suffering for their lives also I undoubtedly feel this change of law would bring a major growth to the society's pride. This growth would not only resolve much of the problems but also give a clear cut end to the traffic system and rules which is being adjourned and considering this law it would be a very helpful view for each and every country to follow this and consider this as one of the most important thing that every traffic rules should contain.

Band 6

If I have the authority to introduce laws in our country, I would happily introduce two laws that are possibly If I have the authority to frame a new law for my nation, I would like to introduce two kinds of laws Firstly, on capital punishment and then on no concept of money the purely run on basis of ethics Furthermore, I would like to express thoughts on capital punishment I introduce this law because of prevailing the heinous crimes and the crime rate going upwards in the city and most of the parts of the country so introducing the human capital would decrease the crime rate and illegal activities and brew fear in the people so they will not commit the crimes and illegal activities Further, there would be peace and stability in the nation and secondly, introducing concept of no money is because everything will be accessible by everyone a better health, a better education for their children there will be no inequality in the states and there will be fair treatment among all classes, all the race, all the sex and this will help in equinormous and egalitarian society so these laws will help build a better nation

Band 6

I would really like my country to introduce a new law that rules against the abuse of drugs. We know that drugs have a very negative effect on the behavior of people. But sadly nowadays it is widely reported that children from a very young age to elder people, everybody is addicted to drugs. This is causing problems in our communities. Children are being very aggressive, youth are getting distracted and they are getting more and more into crimes. So a strict law against this kind of abuse would bring in more peace in terms of reduced drug usage. I believe that if the drug abuse is reduced there could be more peace and harmony in the community right now.

Band 6

Although numerous laws are already made, but I would like to go through them. Although numerous laws have already been made, Deathwing said there is one such law that I would like to introduce. So if I get a second bite to Cherry, I'm not going to miss the bot. This is because I believe that this law is going to change a lot and in other words, I would say it is going to bring a sea change in the lives of not only the underprivileged but also to the medium families. So let me tell you a bit about this law. Well, the law is about not paying the whole amount immediately in the hospital. To answer this question, how I came up with the idea, well, I have to say that if my memory serves me well, it's a matter of nearly two years back when I visited a hospital and where I saw a doctor was reluctant to check the patient. This is because they were not having enough money. So at that time, I was feeling down in the dumps because I imagined myself in her situation. So since that time, I've decided that this law should be made so that the people who are not affluent can take the help of it. And as far as my feeling is concerned, I will be flying literally high. This is because it would give me a great chance to bring great changes in my life. But to cut a long story into short, this is the law that I'm really so into and I would like to bring it in our society.

Band 6

The one law, if I would be given a chance to implement would be traffic violation law. This law, this particular law is what I would like to bring is because there are a number of people in our society who just violate the traffic rules and think it is a great achievement. I would like to bring up this law so that everybody becomes punctual and discipline themselves to follow the rules. This would help them to reach offices on time and also be ready at home to reach to the particular destination on time. This would increase the punctuality among people and also help them to help them to understand how much India has given freedom to its people and be gratitude. A number of people just violate any of the traffic rules and are just fine with it. The traffic, this law will help them to pay fines and would be sending them to jail if any of the laws are violated. It would increase a sense of responsibility and fearlessness and this in fact would reduce the number of accidents that are occurring currently. They would feel more responsible towards the roads, towards the people who are traveling and would maintain their dignity and be careful and would be more careful when they are driving. They would also wear helmets and be safe and also let other people live.

Band 5-6

The new law that I think that should be implemented in my own country is minor vehiclism. Because that is the law which should be implemented in every country, not only in my country. As being a medical professional and working in hospital, I have seen many cases, many RTA cases, that is road trauma accident. That is a very dangerous thing that I have seen. So I think that this law should be introduced in my country, that the minor people who ever take vehicles and move on road, their driving license should be cancelled. Their driving license should not be introduced in their entire life. Because this should be strictly followed by the entire person in the country. And the government and the police officers should be very strict in terms of this. Because there are many trauma accidents happening on the roads without the perfect experience that children are

Band 5-6

If something happens with her, laws are meant to be followed for the benefit of the society. Here I would like to talk about a law which I really not want to make, but just the amendment that I want in the previous laws which already exist in the society, but people actually don't follow them strictly. So I want government should enforce those laws that should be stringent and followed by people and I think one of the important law from those will be the protection of girls. In the society, girls are not allowed and they don't have liberty to move freely here and there. They are always in that taboo of living at homes, not going out at the night, even for working parties etc. Because it's just the mindset of the people that something would happen like the rape cases are in the society. So I want strict laws for the protection of the girls. If somebody have done the rape of a girl, the punishment would be death statement to the person. So that it would be a remarkable example that nobody would dare to do the crime in future. This kind of punishments can stop for these heinous crimes so that people would be afraid to commit those crimes.

Band 5-6

So, the law, it is very simple. In my point of view, the law, it is just a step taken by the government to guide the public in proper way, path. So, the law, it is, it is a very simple law. The, strictly, every fine, there should be the fine for the particular activities or action taken by the peoples in any surrounding or in their localities. So, the things, so things can be changed by that law. It can be the very less in accident, we can prevent accident by doing such, by applying such things. Moreover, additionally, we have to apply this law in roadside, especially in traffic, highways and or even in small roads, small roads, localities, locality roads. So, there should be the camera particularly in every area, in every signal. And whenever anyone jumps a signal, not following the proper rule of the,

Band 5-6

I don't know much about law, but if I had to say, I think the protection of the women is very important in our society, because day by day the rapes and cruelty towards women is increasing. So if I, in my opinion, the law will take women to watch some edge. So even after introducing some of the laws like Nirbhaya and Disha, most of them are not so appropriate and also helping them. So I will now tell you a law that is very useful to women, like a different app is Nirbhaya that is very useful to women. However, most of the women have to carry a cell phone for this and they have to download the app so that they can be easily recognized and they have to on the location every time for this to introduce into their phone. One should get punished cruelly if any cruelty of the women happens and it is decided by the court. So I feel that women are increasing the cruelty against the women is increasing day by day. So this law will make most of them or some of them will decrease.
