Those who advocate focusing on one subject believe that this education model can cultivate more talents who specialized in different areas and increase studying effectiveness . This is probably because students can devote more time and efforts in one subject and reduce pressure from other subjects . However , the drawbacks of this teaching method cannot be neglected . Most importantly , under such target-oriented education environment , teenagers may be hard to regret their original choice and change their specialized field in their further study . Moreover , the dullness of course may deeply influence their passion on study .

Admittedly , opponents may blame that English is making lesser-known languages disappear ever year . Hence , the culture heritage and nation identity vanish . However , this is really short-sighted , ignoring the rapid development of native economy and society .

Time and again , creative artists like Michaelangelo , Picasso , Salman Rushdie , Shakespeare etc . have made artistic works which gave a social message . Right from sculptures to paintings , books to drama and movies , all these artistic works have reflected the contemporary social issues of different eras . Creative works help to create social awareness by giving a social message .
1
Nonetheless , innovative works makes people realize things in a peaceful way and peep into their own conscience . It helps to raise issues and criticize the wrong doings of the governments . For instance , Bangladeshi writer Taslima Nasrin was accused of acting against the government , just because she raised a social issue . This type of approach is a hurdle in promoting creative minds . In addition , creativity also gives aesthetic charm .
1
"Unfortunately , many governments restrict the artists . Frank Zappa once said , "" Mind is like a parachute , it doesn ' t work if its not open "" . Restrictions would just curb the innovative ideas of the artists and would limit their brains . Like the media , artists should also be given the freedom to express their ideas freely . "

Co-operation is essential for teamwork . Educational systems emphasize on encouraging co-operative approach in children . We live in a social setup and mutual help and sharing only leads to success . A person can not learn or achieve everything by oneself . For instance , lions hunt in a team . It is only due to their teamwork that they are able to catch a prey and make task easy . In the same way , co-operative approach will save time , energy and will have a higher success rate .
1
Nevertheless , co-operation helps to understand other ' s perspective and learn by their mistakes . It helps to identify one ' s strengths and weaknesses as compared to others . A co-operative approach can create inspirational and motivational feeling seeing other people ' s achievements . However , competition is also as important as co-operation .
0
Unfortunately , the meaning of competiton has been modified in a wrong direction . An individual must compete with oneself only , instead of trying to beat others . Competition has helped the development of science and technology . Competition helps in improvement and evolution . For example , every other day , new cars are developed by companies which are more efficient than others . This kind of competition gives customers more options .
1
However , blind and selfish competition is detrimental . ' Your loss , my gain ' kind of competition can never be fruitful in the long run . Competition should be always based on self-improvement rule . A healthy competition which involves raising one ' s own level above others is the best approach .

"Capital punishment is given only in the "" rarest of the rare "" cases . Its first and foremost objective is safety of other human beings . When a criminal becomes a threat to the society , such that they can commit heinous crimes , then they are given capital punishment . Thus , capital punishment protects the society from hardcore criminals . "
0
Moreover , capital punishment curbs the inspiration and prospects of other hateful crimes . When a criminal mind knows the quantum of punishment , they will fear and not commit such crimes . Thus , the rate of crime and violence is effectively decreased .
0
Importantly , capital punishment saves a lot of government funding which is wasted in maintenance of these hardcore criminals . Criminals who don ' t have any chance of improvement or who have a past record of such crimes are , therefore , given capital punishment .

In most education systems , a child studies continuously from the age of 5 till 16 years of age . A relaxation of one year to young minds will give them a quintessential change . A continuous study pressure for over 10 years makes the mind saturated and like a robot , to follow instructions . Personally , a break will give students some time to refresh their systems , by traveling or following their hobbies . Importantly , when students start their university studies after a break , they will feel fresh and full of energy to take the new challenge .
0
However , there are also disadvantages . A break can disturb the focus of students and prove detrimental . When students work during these breaks , the feel of money gives them an illusion that such salary is enough for them and they go in a utopia . For instance , my cousin started working in a customer care centre after high school and got distracted . When he started his university studies , he failed miserably . Students can also indulge in smoking or drinking during this time . But , the break should be an optional thing . It varies from individual to individual , how they utilize that period . A break gives students more benefits than harms .

In the modern world , computers are used everywhere . Right from flying planes to sending a small document , computers are needed . They are used in space programs , wars , hospitals , schools and so on . Computers have made human life more easy , convenient and lightning fast . For example , in earlier days , if one had to send a message to someone in other country , it used to take months . But today , it can be sent in few minutes by typing a email and few clicks . Computers provide speed , increase efficiency , accuracy , precision , help to increase productivity and other countless benefits are provided by it .
0
However , everything has pros and cons . Computers have made humans over-dependent . Virus programs , privacy breach , leak of confidential documents , cyber attacks , identity theft , frauds etc . are some of its demerits , from a countless list . Computers expose children to vulgar materials . They have even invaded mental health of humans , for example , FAD ( Facebook Addiction Disorder - excessive use of social networking website Facebook ) . Computers have intruded our lives to the effect that a satellite can peep into our homes and privates lives . The recent case of Wikileaks , leaking confidential data is an example of how computers are harmful .

Co-education helps both genders to gel well with each other . It helps them how to behave and cooperate and work together . For example , students studying in boy ' s colleges do not generally know how to talk to a female or behave in front of them . On the other hand , females studying in girl ' s colleges are too shy to face boys . Co-education will help to eradicate this kind of demerit in both . Universities giving both genders equal opportunities , will prepare them for future challenges and will help in the long run .

Unfortunately , some male chauvinists think that women are incapable in particular fields , like maths , mechanical engineering , defense etc . This kind of gender biased approach is detrimental for the development of the society . Time and again , women have proved their mettle in every field . Women like Margaret Thatcher , Indira Gandhi , Mari Curie etc . , are symbols of women ' s intelligence and skills .

It is true that modern games may be , to some extent , beneficial for children to foster some skills , such as computer skills or the capacity to keep up with the latest trend . This is because children have to be proficient at computers and the Internet if they want to join online games , which , in fact , helps children acquire a particularly powerful skill at work in future . At the same time , children have the chance to experience the state-of-the-art technology , raising their awareness of innovation rather than stay conservative .
0
However , I think traditional games are still indispensible in children ' s learning process , even much more essential than modern games , especially in modern society . One primary merit of traditional games is that they foster children ' s communication skills . Unlike most modern games which focus on the interactions between children and machines , traditional games provide a relaxing and enjoyable atmosphere where children can chat , laugh and cooperate face to face . As a result , communicating with a variety of people will not be an issue for these children any more .

Taking care of thousands of citizens who suffer from disease or illiteracy is more urgent and pragmatic than building theaters or sports stadiums . As a matter of fact , an uneducated person may barely appreciate musicals , whereas a physical damaged person , resulting from the lack of medical treatment , may no longer participate in any sports games . Therefore , providing education and medical care is more essential and prioritized to the government .
0
Entertaining facilities such as cinemas , theaters and sports stadiums are mostly profit-oriented . Their existences are based on their marketing strategies , the condition of facilities and the volume of audience . The competition among each of these facilities is an inevitable part of the free market , which should not be interfered by government . Instead , the establishment of medical facilities or educational institutes is aimed to improve the health or education standard rather than earning profits , which deserves more funds from government .
0
In terms of time and space , technology makes it more efficient and effective to promote the traditional skills and ways of life . In the past , only when people went to the local place could they experience the specific traditional lifestyles . This means individuals who were engaged in work and therefore could not spare time to travel or restricted by traffic conditions had to miss the chance to appreciate the traditional skills . However , with the access to the Internet , one of the greatest innovations in modern society , humankind can acquire the traditional techniques displayed online anytime , anywhere .
0
Additionally , technology enriches the way of displaying traditional cultural heritage , making it more vivid and appealing . For example , China has successfully promoted traditional techniques in the Shanghai World Expo , using a variety of state-of-the-art technological methods , such as robots and LED screens . In fact , many tourists around the world marveled at the perfect synthesis of the modern technology and the traditional culture .

"One of the major concerns against freeing artists ' creation derives from the fear of social misleading which would destabilize the society ; however , I believe the audiences have their own judgement and are not likely to be misled or influenced by some art work . It is needless to say that art inevitably involves imagination , exaggeration and sometimes is purely fabricated ; regardless of whether the work of art is based on truth or not , it is the public ' s authority to determine how to interpret its meaning . If the art displays unreality , the public audiences certainly have the acumen to recognise its untruthfulness and only appreciate its art value ; if the art reflects the reality , then what would be the intention to ban it if it was not for covering the dirty truth ? Would it be autocratic if the government clamp down the artists who are telling the truth ? In a word , the notion of being afraid of social misleading is unjustified . "
0
Obviously , violence in the media is often portrayed as extreme as possible in order to attract audiences . This will definitely set a bad example for the immature audiences who , lacking correct parental guidance and abilities to differentiate the right from wrong , are prone to go astray by imitating the violent behaviors and committing real violent crimes as they regard the violence as reasonable and justifiable .

In the second place , the revolution in females ' right has brought about many benefits not only to themselves but society as well . The financial burden of families , for instance , has decreased significantly with both the wives and the husbands working to earn money . What is more , women have the outstanding instinct to take up some careers like healthcare or human resource management due to their patience and elaboration .
0
Admittedly , such changes do lead to some negative results like an upward trend in divorce rate or , under many circumstances , women find it difficult to balance their work and their traditional role as the wives . Also , children might enjoy less care from parents as they are both busy with their work . Yet everything has it upside and downside , women should find the best way to overcome such challenges .

"Specifically , price control institution has been used in plenty of social areas , for example , in the farming products and in the real estate area ; however , whether it can work out for alleviating traffic and pollution pressure ought to be evaluated . On one hand , governments have a macro-economic perspective to control price in various areas according to social demands . Consequently , it seems not easy to increase petrol price instantly . On the other hand , pollutions are not just caused by the burning of oil , chemical pollutants , extra lights , also constitute considerable amount of pollution . In addition , the improvements of work efficiency also attribute to the speed-up of working pace , resulting in traffic jams during rush-hours . "

First , it is unfair to restrict those public service advertisements which are creative and inspiring . In fact , they are not in the purpose of making profits but taking a role of disseminating valued culture , good moral traits and calling for helps for the disabled and the poor .
0
Besides , it is obvious that publicizing brand image or a particular product of mass media could boost sales for companies . In a larger sense , it could simulate household spending and therefore promote the economic development of the whole country . A recent study shows that after launching an advertising campaign , the sales revenue would increase by 40% , which is the very fact to verify its positive influences on economic .
0
That is not to say , however , that advertisements have no downsides . Of course , the advertising expenses lead to a higher product price and some of them express fake information , creating information asymmetry between consumers and companies . Yet , its merits still outweigh these downsides .

It is not surprised that exercise play a crucial role in ameliorating physical health . Any kinds of sports , such as jogging , swimming , or playing basketball , can effectively facilitate human respiration and circulation system . Moreover , these sports can also strengthen muscles and lessen surplus adipose tissues in human body . The latter one is of particular importance because nowadays more and more people are suffer from obesity . Many studies has points out that numbers of overweight people have increased in developed countries in recent years , which mainly results from insufficient exercises .

Firstly , pictures can influence the way people think . For example , nowadays horrendous images are displayed on the cigarette boxes to illustrate the consequences of smoking . As a result , statistics show a slight reduction in the number of smokers , indicating that they realize the effects of the negative habit . Not only that , the magnificent photograph captured by Kevin Carter , which portrayed a starving Sudanese child struck by extreme poverty has successfully highlighted the plight faced by the citizens in Sudan . Apart from that , images are also widely used in newspapers , magazines and advertisements . Thus , it is undeniable that images in the absence of words can obviously claim the attraction of many .
1
Looking from another perspective , written words are also vital in order to spread across certain messages . With only pictures , everyone is left to their own interpretation on how they perceive the images . Nonetheless , this is different when words are used to explain what the illustration is about . Furthermore , the primary way of educating students is also by this way . Academic textbooks these days are laden with words besides pictures to guide the readers to comprehend better .
0
First and foremost , it is easy to realize that languages , especially oral language , are a quite major part of culture of a country . It helps people distinguish between nations and even regions in a country . The clearance of minority of language means that a national traditional , customs and habitants do not exist . Governments should spend money on keeping and preserving these things for the rich diversity of cultures which make our world more interesting . What is more , it is a pride of the country with a rage of culture which is easy to educate people to love their country more .
0
Art is not the key determination of quality of life , but education is . In order to make people better off , it is more urgent for governments to commit money to some fundamental help such as setting more scholarships in education section for all citizens . This is simply because knowledge and wisdom is the guarantee of the enhancement of the quality of people ' s lives for a well-rounded social system .
0
On the other hand , some people oppose the argument , saying it is a waste of public money for the government to subsidize health care and education of each citizen in society , since a great number of people , in fact , have had the capacity to pay for the both privately . Instead , the government should give priority to more pressing problems related to social members ' wellbeing , such as soaring crime rate , AIDS epidemic or the shortage of infrastructure , which are requiring financial resources from the government to address .

There is no denying that our environment is damaged day by day due to the fact that excessive pursuit of economic development at expense of eco-system , which pose a great threat to the survival of wild animals . In contrast , zoo is a good alternative choice for protecting animals as various animals could be better protected by specialized staff . Once the animal got sick , professional vet will help them promptly . Thanks to the considerate care , the diversity of wild animal could be guaranteed .
0
Additionally , zoos afford a platform to education teenagers , helping to establish eco-friendly behavior towards animals . In the zoos , even though wild animals are caged , they have capability to walk in a limited area . When children pay a visit to the zoos , they still could observe the eating behavior or leisure activities among animals , which would definitely enrich their knowledge associated with different animals . Further , children could acquire the information regarding how to protect wild animals according to guided tour or volunteers .
0
On the other hand , complained about the drawbacks of zoos are often heard . It is true that some zoos are lack of systematic management which attributes to numerous wild animals die because of food shortage . Also , being caged in the zoos for long render wildlife lost the ability to survive in nature where is full of cruel competition among various animals .
0
Admittedly , some countries may place economic developments ahead of environmental protection , thus ruining the local environments . As these needy countries lack adequate financial and human resources , advanced technologies and experience , they have to rely on natural resources to maintain their living standards . Besides , people in the poverty-stricken areas are not likely to be equipped with knowledge to preserve the ecosystems . As a result , unchecked and reckless uses of the local raw materials may happen , which can put a strain on the natural resources . In this view , the economic development and environmental protection can be conflicting .
0
However , I believe the booming economy can be closely linked to the preservation of the environment . With people raising their awareness of the green economy , the products free of pollutants are increasingly prevalent among clients , which means eco-friendly businesses can make a favorable impression on customers today , triggering sales . For example , electronic bicycles powered by clean energy resources have been well received among people in recent years .
1
Furthermore , taking environmental consequences seriously can enhance working efficiencies . If a firm is environmentally conscious , it may have to make optimal use of its resources to improve its production lines and equipment , which can boost productivity . Therefore , it may spur its economic development . On the other hand , without the requirement of environmental preservation , the firm would still consume a vast amount of energy which constitutes a large part of its operational costs , being a hurdle to the economic development .
0
Admittedly , the government should give priority to public services and facilities . This is because the government plays the role of a leader among citizens , which should discharge the responsibility of making optimal use of the tax money to keep society safe and stable . Simultaneously , public services such as education system or medical care can meet people ' s basic demand of survival , security and knowledge , thus making them feel comfortable , which can lower the crime rate . Therefore , public services and facilities should be given adequate attention by the authorities to maintain social stability .
0
On the other hand , I believe arts should by no means been disregarded by the government . Individually , arts can enrich people ' s cultural lives . Currently , people are increasingly occupied with their work and studies due to the stiff competition . Consequently , they require various entertainment such as music , movies or books to them ease their minds and release pressure . Without arts , people would be at risk of suffering psychological problems .
0
First , critics of zoology argue that keeping animals in captivity is wrong because animals should be considered non-human persons and they should have the right of having freedom . This is so unfair for them to be taken out of their natural environment and to be kept in small enclosures . That is because , many zoos , especially the ones in developing countries , do not provide care and attention which their animals require . The animals are often undernourished and do not have sufficient quality and quantity of medical treatment . In addition , sometimes animals from hot countries have to survive in the cold winter of somewhere in Europe .
0
First and foremost , if there is control over artists ' ideas , they will definitely lose their sense of creativity in the long run . It is undeniable that when they are given the opportunity to express themselves , most artists will think out of the box and come up with spectacular Arts such as paintings or movies . For example , paintings by Da Vinci and Michallengo are admired even till now as they were not restricted during those times . In short , without any limitations , there will be more awe inspiring work from our artists .
1
Looking from another perspective , there are certain drawbacks if artists are not restricted . They might go deeper into certain aspects that can cause controversies in a country . To cite an example , Malaysia is a multiracial country whereby all the citizens live together in harmony and peace . In case there is anyone who brings up some sensitive issues in their films or books regarding any races , this might end up in some chaos among the society . Nonetheless , I believe that artists know their boundaries very well and would surely do not want their names tarnished just because of their unscrupulous acts .
1
First , it is generally understood that advertising is carried out with the main purpose of promoting different products and services or encouraging people to consume more . Advertisements are , therefore , very important for many businesses to increase sales and hence profits . Also , to consumers , advertising can bring them many benefits . For example , customers of telecommunication services will have an idea about the current offers of different companies and hence they can compare them and then have a better decision in choosing their internet or mobile phone plans . From all of these , it is easy to see why the idea that advertising is a positive part of life will garner strong support .
1
However , it can be seen that some people have argued against advertising due to its negative impacts . Firstly , a huge amount of different advertisements could be sent automatically by a system to personal phones or email addresses , this is generally known as spam , and causes discomfort or even annoyance to many people . Secondly , advertising can be very expensive and not every advertising campaign can be done successfully and brings good results . Therefore , advertising is believed by many , a financial burden to businesses .

First and foremost reason is that pursuit of nuclear technology one way or the other leads towards atomic weapons . Last century has witnessed the horrors of such weapons . If each country pursues the fusion and fission process some of them may try to mold it for military usage .
0
Another reason to fortify my opinion is that even civil usages of atomic power pose a dire threat of radio activity . For example recently there has been an incident in which an atomic power house leaked tons of radio active material into air when an earthquake hit the surrounding area . This unfortunate event proves that no matter how much careful we are such accidents are inevitable .
1
In a positive point of view , when people without jobs have hand phones that have access to the Internet , they will be able to browse the net for more job opportunities . For example , they can surf the The Star Onlines ' work section to find a job that is suitable for them . With the help of the net , they can also do more research on the work that they have found apart from looking up on how they can prepare themselves for the job . Not only that , the mobile phones can also be used to make calls with the companies in which they would like to work with . In short , if the government provides those without work with a mobile phone , they will be able to find themselves an occupation in order to live and survive .
0
Nonetheless , looking from another perspective , supplying hand phones to the unemployed is a waste of the taxpayers ' money . This is because the money instead of being used to supply the electronic gadget can be used for other useful purposes for the country . To illustrate this further , the money can be used to build more amenities for the public or given to the poor so that they can use it to help them earn a living . To conclude , the money can be used for other intentions rather than giving hand phones to the unemployed .
0
Furthermore , when hand phones are provided for free , many would want to take advantage of this opportunity . It will not be surprising that in order to obtain a mobile phone , they make themselves jobless . Some might even go to the extent of lying that they are on unemployment to make them eligible to get the phones . In this context , the public ' s money is spent worthlessly . On top of that , till now , there are no surveys or evidences that prove this method in effective in reducing the rate of unemployment .
0
Looking from another perspective , the use of CCTV cameras does cause controversy . Those opposing the CCTV systems feel that their privacies are invaded with the constant monitoring of the cameras . However , one must realize that safety is of paramount importance compared to privacy and prevention is always better than suffering from the consequences . Ergo , opponents of this system should try to comprehend the situation and take actions to prevent themselves from being victims of crime .

To begin with , it is undeniable that education is better in big cities in comparison with countrysides . For instance , in my country the best schools , universities and institutes are located in cities , and todays education is one of the most important parts of our children ' s life . Therefore , it is a good idea for children to past their first earlier life in the cities .
1
What is more , it is acknowledged that a large number of creational facilities are built in cities . Children who live in cities have a lot of entertainment . For example playgrounds , parks , science museums , cinemas etc . However , in countrysides we hardly ever see creational facilities . Children who live in countrysides most of the time pass their free time in farms .
0
What is more , when people work for themselves they make more profit for themselves , but in the other jobs you make profits for the other such as your manager . Unfortunately nowadays most of them pick up this profit without sharing a small sum of it with their workers , and from my point of view it is unfair .
0
Finally , there are some authorities in privat jobs that workers are always looking for them while they are working for the others . When you work for yourself you can punch in and punch out whenever you want . Sometimes some occasions happen to people for example a disease , sticking in a traffic jam and sometime going on a vacation . For all of them we have to ask for a permission , and most of the time we are not allowed .
0
Second of all , experience shows while people doing a job constantly , they become more experienced in that subject , so in the final effort they become successful with the high percentile . For example , scientists experiment a substance for a long time , after they gain lots of experience and knowledge about that subject they decide to make it final .
1
Firstly , day by day population is increasing , so human needs for food is increasing as well . We need farmland to grow crops such as wheat and corn , and there is no doubt that without food people cannot alive for more than some weeks . Therefore , farmlands are vital for human life .
0
Secondly , people need shelters to protect themselves from mother nature such as wind and flood and wild animals , so they need land to build their houses on it . Dwelling is one of the most important human needs after food which is undeniable .
0
Finally , human need some crucial things to continue their life , and most of them are industrial such as medicine . Therefore , some lands should be assigned to industry . Todays life has some difficulty which become comfortable with the help of industry .

"First of all , there are people who play a role and cheat the other individuals with their playing , therefore we have to be aware to never judge with their appearance . For example , some people cheat their fiance before marriage by showing a cheerful face and well spoken ; however , after getting marriage they show their real personality . "
1
Second of all , there are some people who are black skin , fat and frown , nonetheless they might be a great person for leaving and colleague . For instance , I have a neighbor who are old , black skin and frown and I had always panicked of her . One day in a cold winter while I was getting back to home from school I realized that I lost my keys , so I could not do anything before my parents getting back home . She asked me to stay with her till my parents come , also she was great in hospitality and her behavior was unforgettable . After that I understood , I had to never judge with people ' s appearance .

It is especially true if we consider the fact that a single international language plays a pivotal role in global economic cooperation . As businessmen from different countries have access to the same language , they can communicate with each other more efficiently and deeply on trade , which can intensify the transnational cooperation . In contrast , without the availability of the same language , there might be a chance that misunderstanding and conflicts would ensue over business negotiations , impeding collaborations between them . Therefore , a single international language serves an economic purpose .
0
Also , a universal language is an integral part of cultural communication and interactions . If people are equipped with a single international language , they can tell each other smoothly about their countries ' specific cultures such as the traditional customs or the modern lifestyles , which enables people to expand their outlooks , viewing the world in new angles . For example , when people travel to foreign countries , the local people can introduce the tourist attractions to such people with the command of the universal language , helping foreign visitors have an enjoyable exotic experience .
0
In spite of this , the disadvantages of the promotion of a universal language cannot be denied . To be more specific , a single international language may , to some extent , erode the cultural identity of a nation . This is because people may be impressed by the cultural values brought with the universal language , eroding a sense of national belong . For instance , some Asians are seeking individualism , previously denied by many Asian countries , due to the fact that they have gradually identified with such values expressed in American movies , which are imported by the governments as a result of the proliferation of English .
1
This is because following fashion trends enables people to keep up with the world ' s latest transformations , which is of vital importance if we consider the fact that people are living in a global village today . When individuals keep the habit of grasping the world ' s cutting-edge fashion information , they are gradually changing their attitudes to viewing the world , which means they are more open to accept diverse voices from people around the world . In contrast , if they stuck to their own fashion styles , disregarding the world ' s top fashion designers ' achievements , they would stay conservative in their own worlds . As a result , they might fall behind shortly .
0
Despite this , it is undeniable that following fashion trends constantly may undermine individuals ' personalities . Individuals purchase their clothes according to the latest fashion trends , which may result in the phenomenon that people would wear the same style of clothes . Consequently , the world would look monotonous .
0
In terms of ethics , it is inhumane to watch one ' s fellowman struggle against famine and poverty without doing anything to help , especially when the onlooker takes no effort to do so . Compassion , a virtue preached in almost all religions from Buddhism to Mohammedanism , is what distinguishes us human beings from animals .

"Economically speaking , such aid could also create a win-win situation . Underdeveloped nations no doubt receive direct benefits through such deeds . For developed nations , new medical problems may very well arise from the work in underdeveloped nations ; thus related research is conducted accordingly to conquer the problem , promoting the development of the pharmaceutical industry . The potential market in those poor countries , most of which has a huge population , is also a thing worth mentioning . By building a good relationship with them , wealthy nations can not only broaden their global market , but also facilitate future international commerce . The underdeveloped nations , in return , may export local agricultural products , mineral products with discount to the former , boosting each other ' s economy . "

Health education causes long-term positive effects on our next generations . First of all , thank to a full health education from their childhoods , children will have good habits of taking care of their own health and these habits may be kept in their adolescences . For example , if a child is educated to have a hygienic lifestyle at a very young age , he also keeps it when older . Secondly , health education will prepare for people especially children necessary knowledge to protect themselves from risks of diseases . Instead of afraid or panic , they may be calmer if unfortunately committing some normal diseases such as allergy or illness in seasonal changes . Many diseases which may be cured easily can turn to serious ones if we do not have right treatment . Health education will help people to have right choices of treatment to recover more quickly .
0
Preventative measures will help improve general health state of all citizens . For example , vaccines will guarantee that pregnant women and their babies are protected from serious infectious diseases such as flu , smallpox , rubella so on . When huge injection campaigns are organized throughout our country , the community ' s health state will be improved remarkably . As human resources play a key role in the development of a country , investing money to enhance the general health state is a totally right decision . In addition , because the cost of treatment is often much higher than that of prevention , the government can save a lot of money for our country ' s health budget .

First and foremost , today entertainment is easier for people to enjoy than ever before . The fact is that such news media as televisions , radios , or newspapers are bringing many news on entertainment sector from all over the world to everybody . People can sit in front of their televisions and watch whatever they want , from musical concerts to live football match . This is a convenient way of relaxation after hard work . Obviously , the popularity of news media is beneficial to human beings .
0
In addition to this , news media help people broaden their knowledge . It is clearly seen that mass media provide people with a variety of global news on all fields , including political situation , economic change , global warming , and so forth . Hence , there is a strong likelihood that today people are able to know the world better . This is particularly essential when the globalization process has been permeating into all areas of society . Indeed , the fast growth of news media is helpful for people worldwide .

It is undeniable that when the background of the convicted is ' dug ' deeper and is revealed to mass of anonymous people , his privacy is being jeopardized . If finally he is proven innocent , he may feel embarrassed to face the public . However , I am sure that the crimes done by criminals should be brought to light and the public should be aware of it so that they will not become a victim as well .

First and foremost , sports events are good chances for excellent athletes to meet and learn valuable experiences from one another so that they can improve their results , break records and bring victories to their own countries . Because a large number of people will gather in the host city for sport events , there are many good opportunities for discovering different cultures . Consequently , sport events with the spirit of healthiness , honesty and fairness can help strengthen understanding , friendship and solidarity among nations . After sharing competitive but interesting moments in each competition , the competitors often shake hands friendly and congratulate the winners , which can lead to an improvement in the relationships among nations .

Secondly , when children take jobs , they tend to be more responsible because whether they can earn money or not will depend on their effectiveness and attitudes in working . To keep their jobs , children will have to try their best to finish their duties . For example , if a child works as a shop assistant , he will have to keep an eye on good and products , calculate prices correctly and take responsibilities for any lost .

Experience gained through traveling to different places , meeting different people and even at job goes long way . It not only enhances the confidence of a student but also makes them independent . Student ' s who works tend to gather better financial resources which they can rely on during their university studies . This experience also makes them aware of what they would like to make of their life . They develop broader view and can make a better choice of their future studies or courses .

First and foremost , it is certainly true that university education is of paramount importance for certain professions such as doctor , engineer and lawyer . Without proper training and knowledge , it would be impossible for them to perform their best in their careers . Not only that , when they are in a university , they will have the opportunity to share their knowledge as well as to network for business associates and partners . This can benefit them in future when they intend to open up their own companies or hospitals .

Looking from another perspective , there are also a significant number of people who are very successful in their fields without going to university . Take for instance those who start their own business . These people depend solely on hard work and luck . Interestingly , for some of them it proved to be a profitable job . To cite an example , Michael Dell who is the founder and the CEO of Dell left college at 19 . Initially , he started his computer company in his college dorm room . Eventually , he used his earnings as well as his family ' s loan in order to progress to be who he is now .

In addition , people with natural talents are also most likely to excel in their life . This is especially true in sectors like entertainment and sports . The introduction of increasing number of reality shows have made it possible for all those lucky ones to triumph . To illustrate this further , David Archuleta who was once a nobody has now taken up a large space in hearts of many . Hence , it is evident that individuals born with talents have also a high chance to be successful .

First and foremost , if senior workers dominate the working sector , there will be lesser job opportunities for the fresh graduates . As a result , most of them will be forced to take up careers which are poles apart from what they had studied for . To illustrate this further , a medical graduate might find it very disheartened when he had to spend around five precious years studying medicine and at the end of the day , he will have to take up another profession rather than doctor due to the insufficient job opportunities available . On top of that , due to the lack of genuine passion on the work which was not of their option , there is a greater possibility for their performance standard to dwindle at their workplace .

Apart from that , not all elderly workers are physically well . Beyond that age , a large proportion of them have an elevated chance of contracting a multitude of health problems such as stress related diseases and cardiovascular illnesses . To cite an example , the stressful life that an aged teacher goes through will definitely take a toll on him . Consequently , they will not be able to give their best in whatever they are doing . Besides , the academic institution will have to pay for his medical bills , resulting in more loss for the institution . Thus , it would indeed be better if at an older age , opportunities are given to the younger ones .

Most people nowadays prefer to use the Internet to search for art work because the Internet really brings them convenience . We can browse the art work from all over the world at home . However , people may not get a spiritual experience since pictures online are only limited to a screen size . By contrast , the exhibits in museums or galleries are all life size and visitors can get a more direct felling . For example , only when we see the real mummy , can we experience mystique .

"In order to help visitors to learn more about the exhibits , museums hold various activities which make visitors be part of what they are seeing . For example , at American Museum of Natural History , you can make a bone-by-bone reproduction of the museum ' s stegosaurus ; at Museum of Art in New York , you can look at 17th century instruments while listening to their music . While if you "" visit "" the museum online , you may not able to get this kind of experience . "

Seeing an art work on computer screen is not the same as you watch it by your own eyes . For instance , you can ' t see the texture of the artwork which is very important to study the skills used by the artist . What ' s more , not all the details of the artwork can be shown on the computer screen . Some details might be dim since the resolution ratio of the screen is not high enough . These may influence the comprehension of the art work or historical objects .

Many people hold the opinion that past behaviour determines the future actions , which could be the main reason to support the idea of revealing the record to the jury . We must acknowledge that complete data concerning the history of a sued person creates more opportunity for jury members to build an overall picture of defendant ' s personality . Furthermore , past record might be useful to decide whether a person was able to perform a certain type of crime when it concerns serious crimes , such as kidnapping or a murder .
0
Nevertheless , in order for the jury to come up with an objective decision not depending on the past experience , the court should provide with details relevant to a particular case only . For instance , a defendant with number of past crimes has more chance to be found guilty compared to a person with no or lighter criminal record . Innocent suspects , eventually , can face unfair juridical decision and pay twice for their previous inadequate actions .

First and foremost , the Internet is an adequate source of academic information , which will potentially fulfill the needs of university pupils . Nowadays , not only are lectures available online , it is also applicable to find reference e-books as well as multi-aspect documents on the cyberspace . As such , the Internet has grown to become the largest virtual library ever . Moreover , with the use of the Internet , distance and time seem to be no more a hindrance . College students can save their time browsing for necessary information through the web instead of spending hours wandering in bookstores or libraries . Last but not least , the Internet offers a more effective and practical method of studying . While virtual flowcharts and animations may simplify complicated scientific processes , Google and Wikipedia are always accessible for detailed responses to every query .

In the near future , the Internet will become an indispensable part in academic training , for the enormous benefits that it brings about . Have you ever imagined what it would be like to stay at home and attend a lecture by a famous speaker in Finland simultaneously ? This fairy tale turns out to be true thanks to technical and internet advances .

Critics may argue that the Internet have several drawbacks which can affect the education system negatively , for instance internet abuse and black webs . However , we should bear in mind that these problems are mainly triggered by students ' wrong approach towards the Internet not the Internet itself . Thus , what we are to do is a change in learners ' attitude not an elimination of the Internet from academic study .

Admittedly , more lives will be saved by the use of effective medicines . The medical industry in developing countries is incapable of producing high-quality drugs . With advanced technology , the developed world has achieved remarkable breakthroughs in making medicines , which can cure a variety of serious illnesses . If people in poorer countries gain access to these drugs , their health situations may be better . The reduction in cost of medicines therefore shows the sign of humanity .

Firstly , it is well known and clinically proven that smoking is extremely hazardous to the smoker and others who have been exposed to the fume over a period of time . Recent death statistic released by the Malaysian Ministry of Health shows that the top killer was lung related diseases caused by smoking . A large proportion of death involved second hand smoker particularly young children and pregnant women who were vulnerable to these lethal diseases . Therefore , the number of fatality can be significantly reduced if a total ban on public smoking is implemented .

Lastly , either industrial waste or domestic waste produced everyday is badly polluting the planet Earth . For instance a large amount of unnoticed industrial waste released in oceans effects aquatic life to a large extent . Harmful chemicals present in industrial waste kills lot of sea creatures in oceans or rivers .

Admittedly , encouraging the workers to retire at age of fifty-five to release the positions for younger job seekers has some merits . Firstly , fresh graduates are likely to bring a number of practical and applicable ideas to meet the current needs of the organisation . This is because they have been instilled and imparted the most updated knowledge and skills at universities . Secondly , having a larger proportion of young adults could enhance the working effectiveness and efficiency . Compared with aged staffs , younger employees are often physically stronger and energetic which enables them to carry out heavy workload to meet the deadline .

The major opposing argument is to protect the safety of citizens . In other words , the government should disclose the information to the media in a timely manner , especially for disasters and outbreak of new diseases . Taking the SARS in 2003 as an example , the Chinese government limited the amount of information for public access which therefore causes numerous deaths . Even so , another perspective on this is to prevent the citizen from unnecessary fear and unrest .
