Introduction

More people are moving to different countries. Now, many countries work together to help these people.

Main Body

About 304 million people live in a country that is not their own. Many people move to find jobs. For example, many people move from Mexico to the USA or from India to the UAE. Some people find it hard to move legally. People from poor countries have more problems. Because of this, they take dangerous trips to reach new countries. Seventeen countries in Africa want to help. They want to make migration safe and organized. They want to use better facts and data to make good rules. These countries also want to help people who move because of the weather. They want people to invest money in their home countries to help them grow.

Conclusion

Migration is growing. Countries must stop using short plans and start using one big, safe plan together.

🌍 The 'Movement' Pattern

Look at how we talk about moving from one place to another. In English, we use the word from (start) and to (finish).

The Pattern: Move β†’ From [Place A] β†’ To [Place B]

Examples from the text:

  • Mexico β†’\rightarrow USA
  • India β†’\rightarrow UAE

πŸ’‘ Simple Word Swaps

To reach A2, you can replace common words with more specific ones to sound more natural:

  • Instead of 'Good rules' β†’\rightarrow use 'Better rules'
  • Instead of 'Many people' β†’\rightarrow use 'Millions of people'
  • Instead of 'Bad trips' β†’\rightarrow use 'Dangerous trips'

βš™οΈ How to build a 'Want' sentence

When a country or person has a goal, use this simple structure:

[Who] + want to + [Action]

  • They β†’\rightarrow want to β†’\rightarrow help.
  • They β†’\rightarrow want to β†’\rightarrow make migration safe.
  • They β†’\rightarrow want to β†’\rightarrow use better facts.
