Traditional skills and lifestyles play important role in modern society , in terms of healthcare , environmental protection and cultural inherit . Although technology takes convenience to humankind , it also contributes to unhealthy behaviors of life , like sedentary lifestyle . Instead , traditional ways of life is a great complimentary for modern life and highlight the importance of work life balance . Meanwhile , due to the fact that traditional skills rely little on fossil energy , it is more environmentally-friendly , which should be promoted to reduce the threat of climate change . Furthermore those tradition-related things convey traditional culture and values . These are important foundation of modern civilization . Protection of tradition can provide the possibility to better understand ancient culture and utilize them to tackle modern problems .

Some people who hold different viewpoints may advocate that protecting traditions consume too much financial budget compared with the incoming it takes . In spite of the fact this kind of business bring limited contribution to government finance , it should be emphasized that the expense is trivial compared with the potential value of traditions . Therefore the government authorities and education institutes should work closely together to promote the traditional skills and ways of life , so as to make people to realize the value of them .

A strong competition sense helps children having urge to learn or to practice for being the best among peers , and this factor is initially arises from the schools and parents , to encourage children to get the highest scores through the grading system . Even though a competitive child is usually more motivated to pursue a goal or to face difficulties independently , but it is also risky that children are becoming too competitive to cooperating with others . Being competitive leads them to success , but could also restrict them in many ways . For example , it might be hard for a competitive person to deal or manage in a team work project .

On the other hand , cooperation is also an essential quality for children , no matter in school activities or in communities . Having a good cooperating spirit helps kids to communicate and get along with others , which gives them more possibility to solve problems or to achieve a goal easily by working as a team . After all , in society , there is hardly anyone who could has big achievement by oneself . For example , famous singers or movie stars , despite of their talent to make them successful , there are always a team to manage works or deal with things .

On the one hand , it is clear that most advertisements so exaggerate the quality of their products that they often ignore some negative effects of what they sell . In addition to this , all of things are advertised as the best ones result in the confusing for users in picking out the most suitable goods . For example , some kinds of shampoo , namely Sunsilk , Clear , Dove are publicized as magic items to recreate injured hair with the number of other benefits . However , the fact is that not all customers are satisfied with what they bought under the introduction from advertisement .
| 1 |
On the other hand , it is undeniable fact that advertising market gives lots of working opportunities from producers , writers to models and cameramen for all of people as long as their qualification adapt to the demands . Moreover , advertisement enables to support users in getting accustomed to enterprises and know thoroughly items sold from these producers . Take Coca cola for an example , this drinking firm is well-known as one of companies invested a major part of their money in advertising . No wonder why this drinking title becomes more and more familiar with customers around the world . Last but not least , online advertisement is one of the easiest approaches due to their potential gains such as cheaper cost , convenience and easily observing .

"Striking contrast , labor working in the merchandise factory receive coin of dollar even they make a hundred of 15 cm Buddha temples a day . In any case , a musician playing "" I swear "" several times receives different earnings that Padang got because the musician re-plays the song without any creation . Moreover , government cannot equalize the price of creation of modern artist because there is no certain parameter to value it , art value is about taste . "

"First of all , many of us would agree to the fact that people ; who prefer working longer hours , do not find time to focus on their health . By working too long , they often become tired , lazy and reluctant to carry out physical exercise in order to remain fit and healthy and eventually loose health and become sick . Moreover , they become extensively addicted to their work and become workaholic type persons . The repercussion are so severe that their families and friends remain deprived off their attention and in the end they end up losing balance between their family and personal life . "
| 0 |
"Secondly , these workaholic people do not spend time for the contribution of society by actively participating in any social campaign . As they usually remain busy in their office so they do not find leisure time for such social activities . For instance , I would take my boss ' s example ; he has been working for extended hours in office for many years . Recently , his health and personal life was drastically affected as he broke up with his wife and his family life has totally been in chaos and cries . He started regretting afterwards and now trying to manage his work but it seems to be too late for him . "

Money is undeniably pivotal , but ways of earning it is also various . A person ' s great prosperity does not state that he has gained it ethically by himself . Nevertheless , a man can only achieve his accomplishment through hard-working , dedication and passion . Whether it is a personal or a social achievement , that man is laudable .

In addition , products usually look more gorgeous and with good quality in advertisement , people are more likely to buy goods impulsively without a second thought . A good advertisement can convince people to believe that it is what they want , even though it is not the real needs of the society . And there are always people purchase particular products swayed by advertising which makes it a trend to follow for other people who is unnecessarily need it .
| 0 |
However , buying habit is a very personal things for individuals , the advertisement is not the only cause for people to buy , sometimes it depends on one ' s needs and ability of consumption . It is unlikely to buy things impulsively for adults who have concern of arranging disposable income . Most of them have to allocate the money if they doing other purchase . On the other hand , children and adolescents who is not economic independence is more possible to buy things impulsively without considering whether they need it or not , since they do not have financial pressure from life and ability to define what is necessary .

To start with , all people who are able to work should pay tax to the government , as it is the most important source of government ' s revenue , which is mainly used to serve all citizens . For example , a large proportion of the tax is spent on national defence and in maintaining social stability , so that every one can work and live in a peaceful environment . The tax is also used to pay the salaries of workers working in public service sectors , such as teachers and police officers . Although these workers do not produce profit directly , what they do is for the well-being of the whole society .
| 0 |
However , I would argue that citizens have other important responsibilities to fulfil apart from paying tax . As we know , there are impoverished or disabled people in every society , needing help and support from others . It is true that the government can provide some fund to ease their difficulties , but such financial help is usually far from enough . In such case , aids from more capable or wealthier citizens are particularly crucial , which are a great complement to government support . Another responsibility all citizens should take is to maintain social stability together with the police force . There are criminals in every society , and the number of policemen the government can hire is limited . So it is quite necessary for the local residents to take actions and ensure the safety of the communities , by doing things like reporting suspicious activities to the police department .

A very important responsibility of media is to publish information about the current affairs as quickly as possible specially when there is a crisis . This helps readers to get updated and act accordingly . For example , when the aircraft MH 370 went missing , everyone wanted to know the details about this tragic incident . The friends and families of passengers and crews were impatient to know the truth . In such situations , newspapers and magazines can not respond as fast as digital media . Instead of waiting for next publication , people can get trustworthy information about the current incidents from internet within an hour or two . This explains why digital media will rule over paper and magazines .

People often want to access news from past for various reasons like to prepare for research , satisfy interest , etc . For example , one research fellow may want to know how a small village named Oramaki in Japan was suffering after Second World War . It is very difficult to get this sort of information from past in newspapers and magazines as one has to know before where to look at . But internet provides efficient search facility where one can search the topic and get the details . This feature of digital media is not supported by newspapers and magazines .

To begin with , I agree that in order for people to cover their daily and general needs they need money as well . However , aspects such as : friendly colleagues , environment and work-place condition , sometimes , have even more impact on person ' s happiness and quality of life . People , for instance , who don ' t like their co-workers and working condition are considered less satisfied with their jobs , despite of a high salary . In this sense , it is also one very salient proof of the accuracy of my position .
| 0 |
Further and even more importantly , most of the satisfaction of a job comes to people from their professional achievements , skills and the position they reach . In other words , career promotion or getting some kind of credit from the administration of a company or organization are , likely , more enjoyable achievements than getting a high salary . For example , people , who work in monotonous jobs , where no achievements or a new positions can be reached feel themselves more dissatisfied , even though they have a very good salaries .

The best thing about internet is the availability of information in the form of text , image or video related to almost everything and through computer children can access internet to gather knowledge on the subjects they are studying or they are interested about . As an example , students preparing for delivering speech on a certain topic can browse through internet to learn each and every minute details of the subject matter . It ' s hard to get everything at a same place unless children are not familiar with computers . That is how , computer impacts children on a positive note .
| 0 |
Nowadays , computers enable people to prepare presentations , draw complex graphs and pictures , document thesis in a simple though efficient way . When children are allowed to play around with computer from a very early age , they get acquainted with the previously mentioned skills and become expert before facing professional world . For instance , students who used to prepare Microsoft PowerPoint presentation for their school projects , get an edge over others at an early stage of their career . From this , it ' s clear that computer has a positive effect on the children .

To begin with , children from poorer families are prone to have bad habits such as : crime , thievery and thuggery . Moreover , these people will not have an access to a good education . As a result , they can be proselytized into bad isms . For example , most of the terroristic groups try to attract uneducated people , because the person with better education has a wider outlook , which will allow no brainwash . In this sense , people with lower level of education have more proneness to be attracted in such isms .

To begin with , I agree that sedentary lifestyle lead to many serious health problems . The main reason why people are becoming so addicted to sitting at their homes even for the whole day is an advance technology . In earlier times , for instance , even the types of entertainment tools were not in large numbers and all of them required physical presence and as a result they had more outdoor activities . Nowadays people , especially inhabitants of cities , are spending most of their time on sitting in front of TV or other tools .
| 0 |
Nevertheless , there are some other causes why people are experiencing serious medical problems . Firstly , the environment of the modern world polluted very significantly from greenhouse gas emissions and other gasses . Many people , for example , are suffering from allergy because of these gasses . Secondly , foods with a low quality such as fast foods , junk foods and any genetically modified ones are influencing to our health very negatively . Finally , life becoming more stressful due to some recent problems such as traffic gam , traffic accidents and others .

To begin with , children might not be really comfortable with the use of a language other than their native tongue when they are in their kindergarten years . Learning at school must be convenient for them if they speak in a way that they are used to . Moreover , teachers think that foreign language most likely leads to confusion for children who are yet to start learning . Another important thing to consider is that the teacher should be well-trained in the use of this specific language , so quality education will be delivered .
| 0 |
"Nevertheless , it is undeniable that kids are amazing learners , and the best time to hone them is in their younger years . The introduction of foreign language will be new to them ; however , their curiosity will drive them to learn and comprehend . In this way , grasping a new language will be natural to them . In addition , the positive impact of this strategy is beneficial to both learners and teachers . Teachers will not find it difficult to make students learn such new concept in their teenage years . It is certainly clear that the advantages of early introduction of foreign language outweigh its disadvantages . "

Furthermore , the increasing development of tourism is a boon to travelers as well . The provision of direct airlines makes it possible for them to travel conveniently and comfortably . With adequate local facilities and services available , they can spend more of their holidays having fun and relaxing . In addition , both locals and tourists can experience more cultures than ever before , and they can be more open-minded to eliminate preconceptions and deepen mutual understanding among nations .

On the one hand , the benefit that professionals or students get by connecting from home is enormous . For one , it helps working people to maintain work life balance . The best example is the new mother who can join her work as well as take care of her baby . People also get the desired flexibility in terms of working hours . For students too , studying from home is an attractive option . They save the travelling time to Universities and utilize that time on their studies . In a busy city like Tokyo , students waste a lot of time in travelling . Thus , the advantages that people enjoy by working or studying from home , are obvious .
| 1 |
On the other hand , one part of the society , has doubt over the productivity of people who prefers to work or study from home . Many employers argue that once an employee works from isolation , he or she spends a lot of time in communication via phone or email with colleagues . This harms an employee ' s deliverable . Teachers think that students get affected too as they can not clear their doubts in study topics instantly . Due to this they lag in their studies . These factors affect people who work or study from home .

There is no doubt that some behaviors of the tourists are not welcome in the local area . Firstly , some people leave the rubbish after visiting the attractions . Therefore , those local residents have to clean the place frequently so that the new batch of tourists will have a tidy and neat environment . Moreover , tourists may offend the local people due to their different culture background . For example , Indians don ' t eat beef since they worship cows . Thus , if tourists want to respect the tradition , they will not order any beef in the local restaurant .
| 1 |
On the other hand , in order to avoid the conflicts between foreigners and locals , people are trying to understand different culture and find solutions . For instance , tourists are given the brochures about the local traditions and customs before they visit the place . Furthermore , the tour guide are willing to help tourists to understand the culture from other countries . Thus , the possibility of the conflicts is reduced because the understanding between both parties .

It is true that some celebrities tend to show off their images in front of the public . For example , some movie starts enjoy wearing luxury brand clothes and showing their expensive life style in front of the media , thereby gaining the public attention . If they continue to behave in such a way , it will create a misleading image to young people who may think that extraordinary life can be achieved without hard work . Consequently , the attention of young people may become focused on chasing the dream of celebrity status . This is detrimental to study and work ethics and habits .
| 0 |
Nevertheless , I believe that other celebrities do set up role models to young people because of their visible accomplishments . Firstly , celebrities such as sports player whose performance and professional skills can be directly seen by their fans . This means that people understand that the great deal of efforts on training is directly linked to their results . Therefore , this kind of self-made celebrity can inspire children to develop their talents through application and perseverance . Secondly , other celebrities such as musician also have achieved great success in their career . Take Michael Jackson as an example , his works are widely spread around the world , and have been extremely welcomed by the younger generation . His songs spread the idea that people should care about each other , which suggests to young people how to become a good member of society .

But on other hand , watching TV for a continuously long hours can adversely impact children health . For example , they can get poor eyesight in early ages of childhood , and also develop back pain . Sometimes , students watch restrictive programs not allowed for their ages and this can have major psychological consequences . Many times , students get addictive to their favorite programs like Cartoon channels , or baseball and easily get distracted from study during exam period and this can seriously impact their grades .

First and foremost , old workers are not a patch on the younger ones for their unchanged paradigm . The old were raised in poverty , probably caused by war , look at the world from a negative and pessimistic point of view . The misery is so ingrained in their mind that they refuse to change , or more precisely , to accept the existence of such modernity . For example , most would rather choose to piece together parts of a machine than have it done by a robot for their disbelief of its efficiency and safety compared with human ' s capability .
| 0 |
Last but not least , knowledge is worth mentioning as a key factor to help young workers outrank the elderly . Who would the employer choose , an old man with old-fashioned education and a young man who is not only good at fundermentaly subject , but also knows how to program or how to speak foreign languages . Not to undermine old workers , but their lack of authority over such basically required fields in this day and age leads to their incompetence in every modern workplace .

It is felt by many that the usage of machines is harmful for health of humans since machines decrease the work done by people . For example , in many institutions staircases are replaced by lifts now a days . People opt for elevators instead of climbing one or two flight of stairs . It is confirmed in a number of researches that daily usage of elevators in workplaces promotes obesity . So this example clearly shows the linkage between using machines and adverse health effects .
| 1 |
On other side of the coin , many people believe that usage of machines makes work easier and less time is consumed for doing similar amount of work . Take the example of use of food processors in kitchens . The work of chopping , blending , grating , kneading has become so easy that people can not imagine their lives without this simple machine at their homes . Thus it is very obvious that using machines makes daily tasks less time consuming and less cumbersome .

First of all , traditional skills and ways belong to value of culture . They make differences between countries . Every country has unique tradtions which show their creation , intelligence . Consequently , people feel pround of their country , so they keep reserving conventions . For example , ways to build a house in every country are different and they distinguish between countries .
| 0 |
In addition , in some cases that traditional way can not replace by a new technology . Lot of people like to use traditional things because if their quality and durability . In paticular , vases are made by hand would be used more . Futhermore , there are plenty of works that using traditional way is unique method . For instance , making cone hats from leaves have to use hand . Not only because there is no machine for the work , but also it looks more beautiful when it is made by hand , so resulting in greater value economy .
| 1 |
The last thing is about education . Traditional skills and ways of life will help youngsters study and know more history . Methods which their ancestors used in the past will be displayed again for new generations . After that , they might create somethings that are useful for life .
| 0 |
Secondly , it is believed that when youth follows celebrities it affects personality of young people in a bad way . Adolescents follow not only the make up and attire of their favorite stars but also their behavior . For instance recently in a poll conducted by an American magazine it was found that most of the parents and teachers complain that teenagers use derogatory words and abusive language at home and at schools . So , this example makes it obvious that these glamorous celebrities have a poor effect on the conduct of young people .
| 1 |
Another reason is order to gaining higher education degree as it is required to establish a person ' s career . These days , it is so hard for young people to get a proper job when they have not degree certificate from Universities . So , learning from human ' s history , education provides someone to widen his or her knowledge and experience for facing the real situation of workplace through subject taught in college . According to this opinion , giving equal education for both men and women is a must .

To start , non-smoking public would be undoubtedly benefited by enforcing such restrain . Prior to 1980 ' s public places in Sri Lanka , illustrates unpleasant situation where people smoked freely . Even in public transportation they engaged in this intolerant bad habit , some instances that lead to belligerent incidents . After enforcing restrictions the situation came to control and this act as benefit rendered to the public .
| 1 |
In addition to this , introducing smoking ban in public places would greatly discourage people from engaging tobacco puffing . For instance , further enforcement banned smoking in capital in Sri Lanka has reduced this consumption related diseases and deaths , as per the ministry of health . As this shows , smoking restrictions has successfully daunted public from this bad puffing that put less strain on country ' s healthcare systems .

First of all , tourism plays an indispensable role in nurturing the economy in a way it is meant to be . Basically , places of interest often locate in the wilderness areas , of which economy , before their appearance , haven ' t blossmed yet . Not until the investment of some companies do chains of hotels and services spring up . It will , by all means , attract considerable attention which goes hand in hand with the enormous income for the local residents . In other word , tourism helps divert the local economy to its right direction , which exploit the best out of its own potential .
| 0 |
Secondly , even though environmental damage is inevitable , it is not tourism to be blamed for . In order to turn a wilderness into a place of attraction , the planners must have taken the nourishment of the sceneries into thorough consideration . To be precise , for instance , a fortune is spent on trimming the trees , watering the flowers , preserving and balancing the local fauna and flora , in the hope of beautifying the wild . Not to mention ecotourism , a new kind of environment-friendly service , which gives all environmentalists and nature lovers a hand in raising the awareness of people in protecting their coexistent creatures . Because of that , tourism should not be alledged to be notorous for its detriment to the ecological diversity .

Future IT has also aroused concern on health issues . The existence of Skype , Viber or Yahoo has notably reduced even the longest distance into one click . As a result , rarely do people go out of their comfot zone , provided with snack and air conditioner , to assemble with others in flesh . Needless to say , their action will make a beeline for obesity , short-sighted , diabetes and other heart-related problems .

In tradition , a person should look back at the past , mainly by means of custom handcraft or antique lifestyle , to progress . Understanding why , and how our predecessors survived through thick and thin will probably be invaluable lessons for us today . Also , study form their mistakes helps us accomplish our goal with smooth sailing .

"Firstly , capital punishment is a form of revenge which creates violent culture . Crimes kill someone which is illegal ; nevertheless , the government use law to punish them , which is the same way they sinned but in a legal one . As a fact that the criminal is repeated second time ; also , it is regarded as the "" legalized revenge "" to victims ' family . Hence , death penalty neither controls the violent in society nor creates a violent culture . "
| 0 |
"Secondly , nobody has the right to take another human life . It is undeniable that the rights of life are the basic and vital rights of a human being . No one has the right to take the life of a human ; even if he committed murder . If you kill a criminal , you become a criminal . Moreover , if we think that killing is the best way to solve the problem , it is neither unethical nor immoral . In short , crimes seem to increase due to the capital punishment . "
| 0 |
Finally , with some of serious criminals , capital punishment is an easy way out . Criminals should be punished for their misdeeds . If they kill someone and end their life by dead without paying for their sins , it is so easy for them . They do not undergo any pain or misery . Why do not we have other wisely punishments ? As we can see some industries such as mining , oil and gas extraction , reclamation , etc , needs many labors . Why do not punish them by doing something meaningful for the country - it is better . Moreover , rehabilitation and education is also a better way in order to prevent or minimize offensive acts .

First of all , the zoo should be considered as a means of education with regard to providing real and vivid materials for learners . With zoos , pupils will have a chance of observing the habit and unique instinct of , for instance , a lion or a crocodile . At a higher level , it is of university students ' benefits to do biological research based on practical statistics and live recordings , which otherwise would not be at hand . This means that the zoos conduce to the acquisition of knowledge at various levels .
| 0 |
Secondly , the zoo also serve as a means of ecological protection . Nowadays the process of globalisation is accompanied by the encroachment upon natural habitats , which consequently calls for the help of zoos . What is more , the ever-increasing huntings are having a heavy toll on rare and specious species . Only when zoos appear are such distinction-driven animals as : giraffe , panda , koala or leopard provided with their own inaccessible territory .

"Despite of the above arguments , i still strongly believe that the government should try to preserve minority languages . This is because language can be seen as much more than just one method of communication . In addition , forming a language must be undergone thousands of years ; thus , it deserves to be respected and preserved . Last but not least , language is one of the essential factors creating the differences and unique cutures in the world . Therefore , saving the use of that kinds of languages in this case generally is the most important element of the cultural diversity ' s preservation . "

To begin with , outstanding academic students are eligible for university due to their intellectual advantage . To be precise , such abstract or complicated informatin , easily absorbed by those students , may prove as a matter of pressure for those who lack equivalent skills . Besides , it is undeniable that one deserves what he has done . University is like a gift presented to those who have gone to great length to attain .
| 0 |
However , university is not just about academic studies but also a place to nurture artistic talent and develop soft skills . Therefore , it should be up for grabs for a majority of young people , who wish to pursue their passion as well as develop comprehensively .
| 0 |
Furthermore , teaching staff are professional and experienced in terms of promoting children ' s communication skills . For example , after many years of teaching experience , teacher are able to know how to help children to develop important life skills such as learning personal boundaries , facing future problems and learning important conflict resolution skills . By contrast , parents are facing difficult generation gap with their children because they are less likely to know how to handle family conflicts in an efficient way .

On one hand , i agree that money is very essential in order to meet human ' basic needs . More specifically , people tend to choose high salary jobs so as to not only help themselves but also support partially or wholly their family ' s living needs such as food , clothes , accommodation , education , medication . It is obvious that people who are woking in art or painting industries , for example , will find it quite difficult to live comfortably and enjoyably . This is because they are doing what they love , their income however seems to be quite low compared to many other career paths .
| 1 |
On the other hand , i believe that if we are passionate about what we are working , we are likely to achieve success easily in that field . There are plenty of people , who are now really successful , have started working in challenging as well as competitive fields as singers , dancers and painters . Besides , important factors in choosing a job such as level of happiness , satisfaction of jobs , personal relationships , professional skills , working environment , managers and colleagues should not be underestimated . Finally , some people choose a career due to their desire to help others and contribute positively to their countries and societies .

One can not deny the fact that if petrol and fuel taxation are raised , people might hesitate choosing a personal automobile . Taxation may have tackled the environmental issue simply by diverting people to public transportations such as trains , buses or ferries . Additionally , for those who have already afforded a car , there is a likelihood it is restraint from usage on long journeys or to crowded cities .
| 0 |
However , taxation on flamable resources might backfire by conducing to inflation . To be precise , the more costly petrol is , the higher the price of necessary product : rice , meat or even vegetable . Consequently , people have to turn to cheaper alternatives , which might cause the abundance in goods and later on , economic crisis .

Another point that should be taken into account is countries that import oil will be more dependent on the exporters , both politically and financially . Suppose that the those countries cut down on its oil support , other nations will have to pay more as well as release beneficial policies for them . America , for example , has recently drawn its intervention in Russian crisis only due to the influx of oil .

First of all , we need to consider that police armed with guns or any other kinds of legal weapons just attempts to protect not only civilians but also himself . As a result , criminals todays are very sophisticated so they spend a large amount of money to acquire modern weapons to cope with the police and serve their own nefarious needs . Thus , citizens in that society can be shot by both police and offenders accidentally . Moreover , while on duty , not only are private citizens affected but facilities such as cars , houses , streets are likely to be destroyed by guns . Therefore , a society that its police force carries guns will be definitely seen as a highly violent one .
| 0 |
Secondly , police force carries guns only in high crime societies . Hence , people and police in those ones usually deal with dangerous diverse crime ' s categories such as theft , robbery , murder , rape , vandalism , arson . Obviously , Those are possibly the strongest evidences to determine a society suffering a high level of violence .

To start with , since technology was introduced , student have been exposed to a wide range of information , which neccessarily broaden their minds . The internet , for example , provide knowledge in the form of news , radio talks , tapes or reseachs on any particular fields . There , the students can not only ascertain concerned subjects but they can also get access to relevant issues and discuss with people worldwide .
| 1 |
Another point that students may benefit from technology is the shortened time for learning . The modern world provides learners with the mp3 , the mobile phone or the laptop that help them , especially language learners , listen to recordings everywhre or read documents anytime . Therefore , students will develop their skills at a greater pace . Moreover , the internet again , is an inexhaustible resource of visual aids , such as educational games , sounds or images with which students may absorb abstract concepts taught at school more briskly and thoroughly .

Firstly , it is undoubtedly that thanks to modern technology invented recently , human life has been improved dramatically . Air-conditioners , computers , cellphones , washing machines , for example , is likely to be seen as greatest inventions helping people to reduce stress and time for other activities . Moreover , applying technological science into the preparation of medications also plays a significant role in saving the number of patients ' lives .
| 0 |
However , some negative aspects of technological process need to be mentioned clearly . In spite of bring fantastic advantages , technological products have devastated the natural environment indirectly through its production process . This is because exploiting and collecting raw materials as well as essential fuels to serve the production of technological products have destroyed nature seriously . Last but not least , technology may decrease a great deal of creativity in certain groups of people especially children and the youth due to the dependence upon available achievements .

Admittedly , reducing the proportion of violent content in TV shows could , to some degree , decrease the overall crime rate . However , in order to tackle this problem more effectively , governments must first prohibit any types of violent content in all children ' s television programs . As a result of mental immaturity , most youngsters are incapable of distinguishing right from wrong . Little wonder , then , that by watching these violent TV programs and videos , juveniles will become very aggressive and offensive and have a great tendency to commit crimes . Therefore , it would be rather necessary for governments to establish an intensive law that prevents teenagers from watching these violent and brutal TV Shows and movies .
| 0 |
Nevertheless , it would certainly be a violation of adults ' civil liberties , if governments implement such a restricted regulation on these TV shows or movies that only for mature audiences . Frequently , adults watch horror video or war movies for relaxing themselves after a busy day . For whom , such media sources are mere materials of relaxation and entertainment . Considering that these mature minds are capable of being responsible for their own behaviors , they certainly have the right to watch TV shows or movies that are appealing to them .

On the one hand , I agree that a police holds a responsibility to tackle of violence in the urban or suburban areas using a gun . An obvious example of this happens in The United State , a man killed more than ten people in the cinema using a weapon , while a police shot in the foot to paralyze him . Obviously , police officers can force a criminal to surrender , because they have a weapon which will prevent an escaping criminal who poses a serious danger to the public . As a result , some military weapons need encouraging for police officers to protect the public and minimize the rate of violence .

On the other hand , there are some reason why the level of bloody increases significantly in the communities . Firstly , the number of unemployment rate has risen to 15 percent in several globalized and non-globalized countries . Many well-qualified and well-educated person cannot earn some money to live comfortably . Secondly , cost of living in the big city is extremely expensive , so this problem impresses some people who live under the poverty line to do anything to pay their basic needs . Many baggers chose to be a pickpocket in the public transport , for instance .

To begin with , the classmates themselves creat a competitive atmoshphere which incent the children . In high school , for instance , an individual cannot resist studying painstakingly through day and night when the others who are astoundingly ambitious and set sights on prestigious universities around the globe are doing the same . From a psychological perspective , the feeling of being subordinate to their peers exert enormous pressure on the children , which subsequently transforms into some sort of stimulants and boosts the children ' s academic performances .

Environment pollution one of the primary reasons why life in cities is becoming worse than ever before . Exhaust from transportation , especially cars , and factories ' tosix fumes can lead people to face with various respiratory deseases . Besides , water pollution makes people ' s health become more critical . The fact is that dangerous bacterias and germs in polluted water can go indirectly into people ' s bodies and create severe problems , which may result in death if the patients are not treated in time .

Moreover , it is likely that many foods in big cities are not safe for people to eat or drink . Recent investigations reveal that toxic foods are sold pervasively in today ' s market . Also , overpopulation may make people suffer from infectious deseases , especially cough , sneezing and illness . Furthermore , living in such cities also means living in high crime rate areas . Unemployed workers or school dropouts can easily commit crime from petty offence to felony such as burglary , pickpocketing , trickery , vandalism , smuggling or even murder . Earning money for living becomes more difficult , living healthy in such places is getting harder also .

First of all , it seems to be true that if there is gun control somehow crime has to decrease because fewer guns available mean less crime . However , this is not as simple as it sounds .

Moreover , there will be law non-abiding people anywhere in the world , either polices or common citizens . As a result , the root of violence is criminal mind not the weapon itself . Therefore , if a government wants to control crime in a community , it is important to manage their people ' s actions rather than gun used in violent crimes .

In a developing country , not many can afford to send their children to school . There are government schools where tuition fees are practically free but they are not aplenty and mostly are situated in the cities . They are not reachable by children who live in the mountains or islands . These children whose parents are either farmers or fishermen , can hardly eat three meals a day , let alone afford to pay for transportation to get to these schools everyday . As a result , these children remain uneducated and will have the same fate as their parents .

"Moreover , it seems to me that not many people can exist in the celebrities ' world without any talents or achievements . We are giving chances to many teenagers to show their intelligence in different talent shows , for example ; The Voice , X Factor or Next Top Models etc . As a result , to become a star and an inspiration for people , a person need to have real talent to compete with other candidates . Thus , only money and glamour look are not enough for a person to be recognized anymore , it is importance that they have to have achievements in order to be a muse to youngsters . "

In the first place , spending too much time on mobiles phones many exert an adverse effect on our social skills . For example , as people , especially teenagers increasingly tend to focus on their phones , they may lose their interests on daily activities such as meeting with friends , and this lack of communication may impair their future negotiation and interpersonal skills . Moreover , continuous use of mobile phones may also damage children ' s eyesight and physical posture . As a result , it is harmful for us to use mobile phones frequently .

Furthermore , the growing number of mobiles games will impact their mental development . For instance , there many game applications available online and many of them are quite aggressive in nature . In these games , children are rewarded to help their characters to kill or shoot monsters or characters controlled by other players , and this many lead to development of aggressive feelings , thoughts and behaviors . Consequently , frequent conflicts may occur during communication .

However , we may perceive this issue from different viewpoints . Mobile phones , such as smart phones , has made our communication easy and convenience . The reason is that , as most of the telecommunication companies provide us with access to the internet via our phones , people are able to enjoy sending instant messages and making international calls free of charge . Thus , mobile phones have shortened the distance of communication .

On the other hand , it is possible for ordinary people to participate in some actions of environment protection , and they also can benefit from the improvement of environment . For instance , many people driving private cars could cause air pollution , and overusing plastic packages would affect the environment . If people can gradually change some lifestyles in these daily activities , this will have many significant impacts on environmental improvement .

An even more detrimental fact is that detailed reports of crimes exposured on the press may provide the potential criminals with instructive learning materials , which would be hard to obtain otherwise . This may help those who are in the process of panning a criminal act perfect their plans , avoid the pitfalls and make themselves harder to be tracked down by the police . Thus , without the prevention on criminal details , the unlawful behavior would be more and more severe and the social harmony would be broken .

"Secondly , the tax reduction for parents of children studying in private schools would lead to a waste of public capital . Obviously , this reduction would cause a difficulty to the tax calculation ; therefore , the government would have to recruit a greater workforce in order to handle this sophisticated issue . In addition , the government would also pay the salary for the excessive officials , and this would result in insufficient investments in other crucial public sectors such as education or health care .

Many parents supporting for the idea of tax discounts claim that such tax payments are unfair for them . They point out that it is irrational to require them to pay for the taxes they do not use . Nevertheless , we also pay for the public services that we even do not experience a chance to employ like police or fire brigade . We certainly do not hope for a reduction for these sorts of taxes .

However , despite the drawback mentioned above , technology has also made some contributions to the maintenance and study of traditional cultures in some ways . Internet has aided to assess the young generations to the cultural identity of many nations from all around the world . With the help of advanced methods , many art masterpiece has been well restorated and well preserved . Modern devices also assist the scientists to study the ancient societies much more deeply , hence discovering more cultural traces .

On one hand , boys and girls have the diversity in psychological modes and individuality . Most of male students tend to use their left brain to think and act , and they are more rational and logical than girls in many cases . For instance , there are more male scientists and engineers in comparison with females around the world . Many boys are interested in science and technology , while a number of girls like to learn literature , education and arts . Besides , girls are more likely to prefer some jobs related to emotion and communication , such as teacher , singer and interpreter . This means that girls differ from boys in mind and behaviour to a large extent , and they both have better ability in the specific aspect .

Furthermore , it can have a negative affect on these students to require them to choose a subject in equal proportion of gender , and that does not conform to students ' personality traits and mental development . For example , a girl , who is interested in literature , is arranged into an engineering department , but she is unlikely to focus on her subject , and this also can block the girl ' s future development and career prospect .

On the other hand , universities should encourage more girls to choose science subjects and more boys to study the humanities , and this could avoid imbalance of gender in some subjects . It would affect students ' mental health to study in the environment of single gender .

The first impression of the celebrities seems that they are rich while not having to work hard . This gives children the idea that it is not necessary to study hard at school for a better career and earning a living . Further more , they will not value other people ' s hard work and take everything for granted .

Meanwhile , not all celebrities are role models . It is not uncommon to see on the media that some of them are committing to crimes or misbehaving such as being addicted to drugs or alcohols , having messy sex lives . Worse still , without proper parenting , children may perceive that this is the cool life people are supposed to be living .

Of course , some celebrities , e . g . writers , passionate entrepreneurs are good examples to children for they share fascinating stories or how to pursue their goal by doing something that has a meaning to them and may change the world .

The first reason why education and preventative measures should receive a greater budget is the potential improvements in health system . I believe that decreasing the number of patients in the health system can lead hospitals and healthcare centers to be managed effectively which will result in better treatments for current patients . Therefore , society should be educated and became aware of health issues so that the potential precautions on the way of illnesses can be taken instead of trying to provide treatment for the increasing number of patients .

The second reason why governments should allocate more budget on prevention from illness and providing health education is the welfare of the society . In my opinion , there is nothing more important than health in a human ' s life and the happiness and welfare come with health . Therefore , a government ' s role should be providing means that lead its citizens to learn how to prevent from potential illness that can cause misery in people ' s lives . For example , the marketing campaign of Ministry of Health in Turkey which aimed smoking problem among the youth increased the well-being of those who quit smoking and adapted a better lifestyle after the campaign .

The second reason why I believe that fatherood is as important as motherhood is the dynamics of the relationships today . In my opinion , we are living in a society that puts a significant importance to gender equality in every aspect of the life , including relationships . For instance , a family formed by a woman with a housewife role who looks after the home and takes care of children and a man who brings money home can not be seen anymore in today ' s society . Instead , all of the couple duties are performed equally and interchangeably by individuals . Therefore , I believe that having and raising children should not be different than any other daily activity .

On the other hand , studying hard will give children a better future . Studying hard gives children with a plenty of knowledge and skills for their future . Naturally , children will be growing up and looking for their job . For instance , children who always studying hard and getting high achievement , it will be easy to pass qualification for work and they are more likely to find great work at multinational company . If they working at multinational company as the result is they can earn higher salary . The message is when you always studying harder than others you will get best results .

At the same time , playing sports will give good effects on children . There are many popular sports among children such as football , basketball , and volleyball . Also , there are many benefit when children doing sport . Firstly , children who always playing sport like football , they will be active as a person and learn to become team-player . It will be good for children , because indirectly they will learn how to socialize each other as a team . That will make children getting lots of friends , so they can contribute positively to community . Secondly , playing sport makes children getting healthy and become children ' s well-being .

On the other hand , the significance of competition is that how to become more excellence to gain the victory . Hence it is always said that competition makes the society more effective . However , when we consider about the question that how to win the game , we always find that we need the cooperation . The greater our goal is , the more competition we need . Take Olympic games which is a form of competition for instance , it is hard to imagine how an athlete could win the game without the training of his or her coach , and the help of other professional staffs such as the people who take care of his diet , and those who are in charge of the medical care . The winner is the athlete but the success belongs to the whole team . Therefore without the cooperation , there would be no victory of competition .

Secondly , it is crucial to keep one ' s identity for they need a connection back to their country as well as teach their children their value of origin . For instance , children immigrated to a new country will face social troubles in school with new friends . In this new environment , parent should find friends coming from their same country so that they can socialize in a very familiar manner as feeling being home . Fail to create this familiarity makes them felt isolated , in the extreme can lead to social disorder like autism . Hence , it is clear that keeping the cultural traditions in the destination countries is tremendous important .
