Sastavak se ocjenjuje prema ljestvici za ocjenjivanje koja se sastoji od etiriju kriterija: Izvrenje zadatka (usp. ilustrativnu ljestvicu za ocjenjivanje Izvjetaja i sastavaka u ZEROJ-u) Koherencija i kohezija (usp. ilustrativnu ljestvicu za ocjenjivanje Dosljednosti i povezanosti u ZEROJ-u) Vokabular (usp. ilustrativnu ljestvicu za ocjenjivanje Opsega vokabulara i sposobnosti koritenja vokabulara u ZEROJ-u) Gramatika (usp. ilustrativnu ljestvicu za ocjenjivanje Gramatike ispravnosti u ZEROJ-u). U tekstu koji slijedi objanjen je svaki od kriterija.
Izvrenje zadatka odnosi se na dva glavna elementa: Razradba zadane teme (razvija neku temu) Struktura (sastavak naglaavajudi bitne argumente i navodedi pojedinosti koje podravaju iznesena shvadanja). Kriterij Izvrenje zadatka odgovara na pitanje je li pristupnik obavio zadatak. Prvi element, Razradba zadane teme, odnosi se na pitanje je li pristupnik odgovorio na sve dijelove zadatka ili samo na neke. Drugi element, Struktura, odnosi se na glavne misli (koliko jasno pristupnik naglaava glavne misli), potporu (koliko su glavne misli poduprte dokazima i primjerima) i format (potuje li pristupnik format sastavka koji sadri uvod, glavni dio i zakljuak).
Kriterij Koherencija i kohezija izveden je iz ilustrativne ljestvice za ocjenjivanje Dosljednosti i povezanosti u ZEROJ-u (2005:129). Prema toj ljestvici korisnik: moe rabiti ogranien broj kohezivnih sredstava kako bi svoje izriaje povezao u jasan, dosljedan diskurs moe uspjeno rabiti razliite veznike kako bi jasno oznaio odnose izmeu misli. Koherencija se odnosi na pitanje: Kako lako itatelj/ocjenjiva moe pratiti slijed pristupnikovih misli? Kohezija se odnosi na pitanja: Kako dobro pristupnik rabi kohezivna sredstava u svrhu povezivanja svojih misli? Kako dobro pristupnik rabi pravila o strukturiranju odlomka u svrhu organiziranja naina predstavljanja svojih ideja?
Vokabular se odnosi na dva glavna elementa: raspon tonost. Raspon vokabulara izveden je iz ilustrativne ljestvice za ocjenjivanje Opsega vokabulara u ZEROJ-u (2005:115).

Tonost vokabulara izvedena je iz ilustrativne ljestvice za ocjenjivanje Sposobnosti koritenja vokabulara u ZEROJ-u (2005:115). Prema toj ljestvici kod korisnika: ispravnost izbora vokabulara uglavnom je na visokoj razini, premda ponekad moe dodi do zamjene ili pogrjenoga izbora rijei, no bez zastoja u komunikaciji.
Gramatika se odnosi na dva glavna elementa: raspon tonost. Raspon gramatikih struktura odnosi se na pitanje rabi li pristupnik sloene strukture ili se mora oslanjati na uporabu jednostavnih struktura.

Prema toj ljestvici korisnik: prilino dobro vlada gramatikom i ne pravi pogrjeke koje mogu dovesti do nesporazuma dobro vlada gramatikom; mogu se pojaviti povremeni previdi ili sporadine pogrjeke te manje netonosti u strukturi reenice, ali to se dogaa rijetko i esto se moe naknadno ispraviti.
Animals used in experiments for medical purposes Oujak 30, 2011, 18:07:42 Citat: +1 One of the questions facing society today is whether animals should be used in scientific experimentation. some people believe there are reasons why animal testing should be done and others believe that animal testing is morally wrong. In these essay I would like to present arguments of both sides. Firstly, a good thing about testing animals is that many cures for diseases are found which helpspeople saving lives. The second point is that these same testings aren't done on human beings and of course people don't want to do experiments on other people, if they have animals. Finnaly, abig concern, as always, is money becouse it's a lot cheaper to do experiments on mice and rats than do some fancy experiments whixh demand a lot more money. On the oter hand, I believe that ther are more negative sides of anumal testings than the positive ones. For instance, those poor animals suffer, feel pain and tjat is wrong. No human life is more valuable than life of an animal. Secondly, animals are held in awful conditions, small caves and they will never come out of there, and experience a normal life. I believe that's cruel. The tird point is that sometimes anima testings are conucted without the need. For example, testings for cosmetics. There are a lot of cosmetic products which are not tested on animals and are still good and safe for people, and that opens a question why aren't all products like that, obviously it's possible. In conclusion I would like to say that it's a shame that animals have to be used for any scientific experiments. As far as I'm concerned I would do medical testings on people who are on death row i prison becouse they did horrible things, and would live innocent animals alone. However, until another way is found, I can see no other way of solving problems that effect both humans and animals. No one should be happy about this necessity and we have to find other methods.

Adult children living at home Travanj 04, 2011, 21:36:23 Citat: +2 People have divided feelings about adult children living at home. While some point out how good it is for the whole family, others believe that they are lazy and irresponsible. They think that they are incapable to be independent members of the society.
The major advantage is that they are adults and they can help by making money for the whole family. It is also good for their parents because they are getting old, and they will be happy to have some help around the household and someone to talk to. In addition, they are saving a lot of money. Living with parents under the same roof is cheaper then living alone.
On the other hand, in most cases they are incapable to live their own life. They do not know how to manage their finances and take responsibility for the obligations. Also, they usually do not have enough experience to live by themselves one day. Parents often do not want to push them away. They think that they are helping them but they are just raising adults with the needs of children.
To sum up, adult children living at home definitely bring benefits. They are helping around the house and saving money. However, they are mostly limited by having too little space for their own growth. They do not have enough space to become responsible and hardworking adults.

Vrlo jednostavno, ali jasno i lijepo, bez uoljivih znatnih pogreaka. Uz prikladnu temu (a koja ne bi bila doslovno ponovljena u uvodu) bez sumnje odlian, lako mogude i sve tono (raspon vokabulara - ponavljanja - ostavlja mogudnost za oduzimanje jednog boda ako bi bili izrazito strogi, ali sumnjam). Dobar primjer kako se pie esej - ne oekuje se savrenstvo, samo dojam da znate to radite. Adolescence is the unhappiest time in most people's lives! -esej Travanj 04, 2011, 20:23:51 Citat: 0 Dobar dan! Evo pokusala sam napisat nekakav esej, nadam se da je u redu i svaka kritika i pohvala je dobrodosla! Nemam nikakve smjernice, samo zadanu temu koju nam je profesorica dala. Hvala Adolescence is the unhappiest time in most people's lives!
Just like every period of life, being adolescent can be a pretty rough time. Some people says it is the unhappiest time, while other says it is the most happiest time in our life.
The major advantage of being adolescent is the fact that we are growing up and we are progressing in physical and mental way. We develop ourselfs in the better and more considered young people. As we are getting older, we are more ambitious about our future. For example, everyone of us is trying to get in the colledge we want and succeed in it.
On the other hand, there are many bad sides of being adolescent. For instance, no one take us seriously and mature for making our decisions on our own. Like, no one trust us. They all think we are still children with no responsibility. Secondly, we are all responsable for every act we made and we are taking consequences on our own. For example, if we steal something, we can get punish or something even worse. It can be togh right? Thirdly, adolescence is the period of life when little problem seems like big one.
In conclusion, although adolescence can be a good and happy time, especially in our developing period, it could also have a lot of minuses. In my opinion, the biggest argument against adolescence is that we are still naive and acting like kids in some situations. Despite all of that, it is the best period in my life.

Just like every period of life, being adolescent [ovdje je moralo idi 'adolescence' jer 'being adolescent' nije razdoblje] can be a pretty rough time. Some people says it is the unhappiest time, while other says it is the most happiest time in our life.
The major advantage of being adolescent is the fact that we are growing up and we are progressing in physical and mental way. We develop ourselfves in the better and more consideredate young people. As we are getting older, we are more ambitious about our future. For example, everyone most of us is are trying to get in the colledge we want and succeed in it.

For example, if we steal something, we can get punished or something even worse. It can be togh right? [ne znam to je ta reenica trebala znaiti, ali opdenito suzdrite se od retorikih pitanja u eseju iz stranog jezika, a osobito u njegovim sredinjim odlomcima] Thirdly, adolescence is the period of life when every little problem seems like big one.
In conclusion, although adolescence can be a good and happy time, especially in our developing period, it could also have a lot of minuses. In my opinion, the biggest argument against glorifying [ili tako neka rije je nedostajala da bi bilo smisleno, ne moe se davati argument protiv postojanja neega to jednostavno prirodno mora postojati] adolescence is that we are still naive and acting like kids in some situations. Despite all of that, it is has been the best period in my life.
Esej ne zadovoljava neke od kriterija mature: dan je samo jedan (i to kaotino razraen) argument za (a 3 protiv, koji isto nisu ba jako pregledno razraeni) te zakljuak nije jasan, a i naslov je ponavljan u uvodu (i opdenito je malo previe ponavljanja i izraza i ideja). Dosta pravopisnih i drugih pogreaka (nastojala sam ispraviti one uoljive koje bi ocjenjivai mogli zamjeriti), no ostvarena je osnovna struktura i ideja, bio bi prolazan, na odgovarajudu temu bio bi najmanje za ocjenu dobar, mogude i vrlo dobar. Pa kad si me ved osobno prozvao, pokuat du. Iz engleskog: 1. na strukturu - moraju biti 4 odlomka i to tono tako: 1. uvod (navedete tvrdnju koju ste dobili, samo koliko je mogude svojim rijeima, i kaete neto o njoj, obino tu dobro doe rije 'nowadays' ), 2. argumenti za, 3. argumenti protiv ako se odlui sloiti s tvrdnjom odnosno 2. protiv, 3. za ako se odlui ne sloiti s tvrdnjom (u svakom dakle sluaju mora biti argumenata i za i protiv i to po 2-3 razraena argumenta, znai ne samo navedeni nego barem jedna reenica posvedena svakom), 4. zakljuak (i obavezno u njemu "svoje miljenje") 2. povezivanje - imate popis rijei kakve trebate rabiti http://drzavna- matura.com/index.php?topic=218.0 naravno nije poanta ba samo u prikladnom koritenju tih rijei nego i da sve skupa izgleda kao smislena cjelina (no i ako samo te izraze dobro upotrijebite moglo bi vas lako izvudi i na 4 :F ) 3. kakav-takav raspon gramatike i vokabulara, da nije ba sve present/past simple nego prikladno simple/continuous i na prikladnim mjestima bi se mogle nadi neke modal verbs (can/could/may/might...), ne ba sve jednostavne reenice povezane s and nego i zavisno sloene, ako zna neku prikladnu kompliciraniju rije upotrijebi ju ak i ako nisi 100% kako se pie, ako zna vie rijei za isti pojam koji spominje vie puta ili vie slinih rijei upotrijebi svaki put razliite rijei (npr. think/believe/suppose/assume...) 4. ne raditi "glupe greke" s pisanjem jednostavnih rijei (npr. it's/its, they're/their - iako bi u eseju ove skradene oblike opdenito trebalo izbjegavati) - a da se to izbjegne, proitati na kraju cijeli esej paljivo jo jednom (smije (uredno) kriati) - i naravno ne pisati skradenice kao na chatu :F 5. drite se teme (to sam zapravo trebala staviti prvo :F jer je moda i najvanije) - ne moraju svi argumenti biti "pametni" ni "istiniti", no moraju biti vezani uz temu, nemate prostora za digresije
