Introduction

The Australian Federation of Islamic Councils (AFIC) has problems with its leaders. At the same time, more people in Australia are fighting because of religion.

Main Body

The leader of AFIC is Rateb Jneid. Some people say he took money from the group for his family. The group did not have elections. A government office said AFIC might lose its special status as a charity. Many people are now angry at Jewish people. The government is studying this problem. They want to know the difference between talking about politics and hate speech. Also, many people are angry at Muslims. A man named Aftab Malik says the government does not do enough to stop this. He says hate is growing because of the words politicians use.

Conclusion

Australia has two big problems. One group has bad leaders and the country has more religious hate.

⚡ The "Some / Many / More" Scale

In this text, we see how to talk about amounts of people without using exact numbers. This is a key A2 skill.

1. The Gradient

  • Some (A few) →\rightarrow "Some people say..."
  • Many (A lot) →\rightarrow "Many people are now angry..."
  • More (An increase) →\rightarrow *"...more people in Australia are fighting."

2. Quick Grammar Rule These words always go with plural nouns (things you can count):

  • ✅ Some people
  • ✅ Many problems
  • ✅ More words

3. Simple Swap Instead of saying "10 people are angry," you can say "Many people are angry." It sounds more natural and professional.
