In many countries schools have severe
problems with student behavior.
What do you think are the main causes of
this? What solutions can you suggest?
Give reasons for your answer and include any
relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.
Introduction
How true it is, we get respect with direct proportion
of our behavior to others. When students behave in a rude way or in an
irresponsible way then of course it is hard to deal the same for the school
authorities. Once we go in introspection of the causes of such temperament
of students towards school management then particularly attitude of today’s
student comes in to lime light. Several others things are there, I will
open the whole matter before reaching to a concrete conclusion in coming
stanzas.
Body para 1
Attitude of a student is formed by
various things like his family background, mutual respect of his family for
him, his self-image, his personal targets in life, teacher’s attitude towards
him and his active participation in studies. By taking into account all
these primary factors, the picture goes clear about the current
disposition of students into school premises.
Body para 2
We live in a world of cause and effect, students
are not solely responsible for this deviation in behavior, and a
dedicated approach from the side of family and school authorities is required
in this to make the things easy and on their place. Parents should take initiative
to spend time purposefully with their kids to understand them and to
encourage them towards a love based and peaceful life.
Body para 3
Teachers also play a vital role in life of
students in shaping their destinies and in helping them in
becoming a meaningful and asset like for their nation. Teachers should
come forward to foster a healthy self-esteem in students so that they
can start respecting themselves and should embark living a value based and
morally respectful life.
Conclusion
More than students themselves,
their families and teachers are quite responsible for taking them on a place
where they are right now. With collective responsibility they can make the
picture beautiful.

Universities should accept equal number of
male and female students in every subject.
To what extent do you agree or disagree with
the opinion?
Introduction
The world has always been male dominated. It is
clearly seen that males are encouraged more to pursue education and to
get employed with that qualification. Good news, from recent years, is
coming from every corner of the world that females are also walking with same
marching (rubbing the shoulders with) on the path of education along with
males. Universities are vitally preferred by females to study after finishing
the basic schooling. There are several factors within the family that
decide whether a male or female candidate will move to higher education or not
and I will discuss all those reasons in coming paragraphs.
Body para 1
As far as, the role of
university is concerned, it should open his arms equally for both sexes. By
giving same respect and welcome to both sexes, universities will also promote
the sense of equality among students. It will also increase the
effective competition between students. Everyone is free to fly in today’s
time so it is quite natural that universities should take the equal intake
of males and females. Moreover, there are certain fields where both sexes
can do wonders like software industry, thinking based jobs and behavioral
skills based jobs so they both should get the opportunity. Every subject is
great if greatly pursued so it should be an open opportunity for males and
females to go for it.
Body para 2
Apart from taking care about sense of
equality, it is also vital to keep in mind certain things
about opening a subject for both sexes. Like there are subjects in which naturally
males are comfortable or interested and vice versa for females. They are
certain subjects in which males and females are required as per their
natural talents so automatically in those subjects there would be a
misbalance in strength of students.
Conclusion
From the whole discussion, it is quite
evident that it is right to open arms for both sexes with equal
love on the part / end / behalf of university. There should be a sense
of equality for males as well as females.
Solved sample 18
In some countries young people are encouraged
to work or travel for a year between finishing high school and starting
university studies.
Discuss the advantages and disadvantages for
young people who decide to do this.
Introduction
How true it is, every coin has two facets. It
is great to have a gap between studies when a student finishes his high
school and choose to have some practical eyes for his coming life. Working
or travelling to explore the things turns experiences into meaningful life
lessons for someone who has just completed his high school. Furthermore,
I will explicate the whole matter in coming paragraphs with absolute clarity
and vitality.
Body para 1
A great quote from a leading thinker is if
a person has not travelled across the world then he allowed his third to stay
closed. With travelling or working routine, a student gets ideas on
how to behave in a practical world, how to present himself to others, how to
search a lifestyle for coming life and of course, how to choose an identity
for his rest of life.
Body para 2
One more perspective is
there behind the notion of working before entering into university
which is when a student chooses to work and with this; he somewhere
enables himself to utilize the education of his schooling into practical
substance. Automatically, he comes in a position to take an unbiased
decision for his rest of life.
Body para 3
Certainly, there are also ill points of the
same situation and they are likewise, if a student chases a
work culture or a travelling experience then he may or may not be return back
to his educational career. Moreover, if he chooses working for some organization,
he may miss the joy of senior qualification and corresponding job
opportunities. There are chances for him to turn into low paying jobs
for rest of his life if once he chooses to go for money at that stage of
his life.
Conclusion
The best thing about choosing to work and
travel before embarking university studies is it will bless the
pupil a third and real eye to view the practical world. It is a great option
to choose. One, who is committed to live his life at fullest, must
go for a study break and should give himself an opportunity to widen
his horizons.
Solved sample 19
Some people think that a sense of competition
in children should be encouraged. Others believe that children who are taught
to cooperate rather than compete become more useful adults.
Discuss both these views and give your own
opinions.
Introduction
Competition is really a powerful tool to
inspire children to grow more and evolve more in all walks of
life. Sense of competition instills a powerful and positive spirit
to learn more things in children. (General fact) Of course, if competition
is healthy, productive and leaning focused then it is of high value.
Sometimes, children go beyond their regular limits in various areas of their
lives just because of other successful examples of that area. Both
cooperation and competition seem to have lasting impacts still I will
explicate the matter clearly before touching any concrete conclusion. (Thesis
statement)
Body para 1
I will take both views parallel in my discussion, As
far as competition is providing ability, learning, skills, confidence, depth
and maturity; it is really of great value. Sometimes, it is seen
because of unnecessary competition, children do damage their naturality
and creativity. Every child is unique and full of infinite unknown or
unexplored talents. It is not good to throw him in the fire of
competition without analyzing the possible consequences of the
same.
Body para 2
Another perspective for children is,
installing a sense of cooperation in them. To live in a peaceful and
continuous growth oriented world, it is of huge importance that
children in the school age must learn how to share and how to make a healthy
cooperation based deal to others. It is a powerful feeling that is life
transforming. As in society, we all are interdependent so it is urgent
to understand mutual feeling and provide adequate support.
Conclusion
This is of quite significant use to have a
young nation of mutually respect based spirit with a great attitude of
mutual cooperation. In a nutshell, competition is essential to
grow and to expand as far as it is healthy, productive, learning based
and positive. Along with this, creating adults with an attitude of mutual
cooperation is equally fruitful.

Research indicates that the characteristics
we are born with have much more influence on our personality and development
than any experiences we may have in our life.
Which do you consider to be the major
influence?
Introduction
Natural is natural. Of
course, the DNA plays its role. The heredity has its own influence.
The birth situations and mindsets of parents of an infant clearly
play a crucial role in deciding his personality later. Likewise, a
child has taken birth in a creative, cultural and awareness based atmosphere
automatically he will be a responsible, polite, caring, self-dependent sort
of person in his young age. By keeping both aspects in mind I will be
stating my opinions in coming paragraphs.
Body para 1
It is mostly observed by psychologists
worldwide that the talent with which a child takes birth;
he does not update or hone his talent and remains limited in his thinking and
influence. Somewhere, it is important to have a balance between the
gifted talent and skills that a person acquires in his lifetime. It is quite
true that inborn talents help a person at all stages in his life.
Body para 2
One cannot turn his face off towards the
essentially of incidence that teach and train us in meaningful ways
sometimes intentionally and sometimes unintentionally. Really, it is of huge
worth that happens to us in lifetime. Some incidents shape / hone /
construct us completely and transform our mindset. And the ability to
interpret those accidents is naturally gifted to us and sometimes we
acquire that capacity with sufferings.
Body para 3
It is a proper equation balancing between
what is natural and what is acquired in lifetime. As you come with a
specific trait due to your family legacy so that will be a part of your personality
lifetime and it is up to you, how you utilize that in shaping your life. On
the other hand, certainly, what goes around us sticks to us. So nurturing
has its own impact. History has proved that people with average
gifted skills but with rigorous hard work along with learned skills like
service to society, continuous betterment in capacity to learn, explore and
evolve, had transformed their signatures into autographs.
Conclusion
Natural with nurturing based stuff does the
wonder. Both have their importance. Certainly, nurturing is
primary in shaping a person’s destiny through his lifetime. (Conclusion)
People should respect their natural gifts and should be ready to learn from
lifetime happenings. (Restating opinion)
Solved sample 21
Today the high sales of popular consumer
goods reflect the power of advertising and not the real needs of the society in
which they are sold.
To what extent do you agree or disagree with
the opinion?
Introduction
Without telling about products, it is hard to
sell them. (General fact) Advertisement is a great thing when it
meaningfully communicates the positive and productive aspects of a product or a
service but the same advertisement becomes a caution when it unnecessarily
creates an illusion in the mind of consumer. Yes, of course, advertisement is
playing a key role in today’s world in opening the minds of people about the
new possibilities of a product or a service. (Paraphrasing) Coming
discussion will reveal a concrete conclusion on the matter of pluses and
minuses of advertisement. (Thesis statement)
Body para 1
Both perspectives have their own significance
on their own. First, I will honestly express my ideas
on how advertisement is proving itself as an asset in mass media. In
the world of cut throat competition and in the presence of hundreds of
products in the market, a well-designed and properly conveyed
advertisement reflects the plus points of a product for that it is
designed.
Body para 2
Moreover, advertisement is great in case of consumer
goods as they are useful in our routine practices and they make us aware
about the essential features of goods so that one can take an insightful
decision about buying of them.
Body para 3
On the contrary, one cannot deny from the
fact that sometime advertisement are far away from reality
and they successfully create an illusion and misconception. What happens
is, people are emotionally charged and pumped up to but things that they
actually do not need at all. Most of the people automatically get
caught in the creative trap of massive and repeated ad commercials. It
is true, up to certain extent, advertisements are forcing people to buy or
creating a false need among consumers and they start feeling like they
must need this and without the purchase of this their life is incomplete.
Conclusion
Both aspects are vital to consider,
but meaningful part is advertisement empowers the customers when they
communicate productively and meaningfully about a product or a service.
Advertisement culture should be encouraged with meaningful base ideas.
Solved sample 22
Some people believe that visitors to other
countries should follow local customs and behavior. Others disagree and think
that the host country should welcome cultural differences.
Discuss both these views and give your own
opinion.
Introduction
Travelling expands the horizons of the
traveler. When you go to some country, you go with a clear
intention of exploring new possibilities and new opportunities of
looking at life. When you travel you learn a lot. But also, there are certain
things which you should keep in mind to ensure your success in your
mission of expanding your conscience about how things work in that
country. In coming paragraphs, I will clearly put light on both scenarios
before reaching to a final word.
Body para 1
The primary thing for a visitor is to follow
the code of conduct of that country to positively mix with the local
culture and tradition. Here is a truth also; once you respect others
automatically you get respect from others. In a position of mutual respect,
both parties win. With the intention of respect and appreciation for the
host country’s culture and disposition, the visitor will be benefitted more and
will come back with a huge collection of happy memories. Intention of
knowing things with an eye of great regard for the host country people and
places must be encouraged within the explorers.
Body para 2 (on the contrary or the opposite
view is)
A different perspective on the same topic is the
host country should also be willing to accept the cultural difference in a
meaningful way and they should be open to learn new concepts if they
found the opportunity of such kind. It’s all about openness and
willingness of two parties about each other if they both want to make winners
out of themselves.
Body para 3
A difference of language, eating style, clothing,
perceptions and geographic diversity is quite obvious between two different
nations and in this situation, it is an ethical and moral duty of both
parties that they should respect and welcome such differences creatively. By
having this attitude, they both will add-on each other.
Conclusion
Respect from both sides is must to ensure a proper
exchange of worthy cultures and traditions. Moreover, visitors
should show a healthy respect for the host country’s culture and legacy.
Solved sample 23
Today the high sales of popular consumer
goods reflect the power of advertising and not the real needs of the society in
which they are sold.
To what extent do you agree or disagree with
the opinion?
Introduction
There is no doubt that advertisement industry
is on fire in today’s time. Products and services are defined
and presented in such a way; it creates a temptation in the minds of
people that they must buy these things. Advertisement is a powerful tool
of telling the concept of a product likewise what it is, how it works and how
it adds values in the life of users. There are certain mixed views about the
matter; I will explicate this in coming paragraphs to present a clear final
saying.
Body para 1
One of the fastest growing industry’s all
over the world is advertisement one. There are companies in the field of
consumer goods like LG, WHIRLPOOL, GODREJ, SAMSUNG, IFB and HAIER who invest
billions annually on telling people about their products worldwide. One
cannot ignore the excess of ads and somewhere, ads are controlling various
television platforms like daily television serials, sports events, reality
shows and movies.
Body para 2
It is so true that some ads reveal a picture
of products that is far from their actual need and
desire. The whole concept of making ads is based on the generation of lack
feeling in the mind of consumer that arrives after watching the ad.
Body para 3 (on the opposite view)
On the contrary,
ads are meaningfully creating huge awareness about new technology and
new offerings in the market just to make the life of people easy and
fast. Worldwide lots of people are working days and nights to create
magical presentation of product and services to make sure that people should
take the message behind the ad. One more thing, there are numerous
products in the market so somewhere people also need powerful means
to know which one suits their needs well.
Conclusion
Ads play primary role in sharing meaningful
things about latest offerings in the market but when ads are
bombarded like anything they create a baseless need in the minds of
people.

Some people prefer to spend their lives doing
the same things and avoiding change. Others, however, think that change is
always a good thing.
Discuss both these views and give your own
opinion.
Introduction
Change is always hard at first, messiest in
the middle but gorgeous at the end. It is powerfully said by
motivational industry genius Robin Sharma. It is so true that people
avoid change in life without knowing that change is the only thing in life that
is inevitable. Change is hard because it needs constant upgradation of
lifestyle and living etiquettes. People have different opinions about
change, some favor while some ague it, profoundly. By keeping this in mind,
I will clearly present my stance in coming paragraphs before reaching to
some concrete statement.
Body para 1
People avoid change and choose to live same
life over and over again. Such people start blaming life for not
giving them enough opportunities to grow and to expand. It is totally senseless
to live a life of no change and expecting nice things in days to come.
Body para 2
On the contrary, there are people who
respect change in life and always eager to change for better things and
results. Change is constant and they get it. Everyday life sends new
opportunities to everyone but the people who love to change and to
update themselves are the ones who embrace these awesome prospects. Change
is always great and provides new possibilities of how things can be and how
meaningful life can become.
Body para 3
One must recognize change as inevitable part
of life and should ready himself every time to grab the
infinite opportunities that change carries within itself. People who
change with time and love change are the people who are not much liked by
people who refuse to change themselves for better. It is totally
interesting to make change as essential growth element and embrace
change with open hands and open mind to live life in full
dimension.
Conclusion
Change is must and it is quite meaningful to
live life by taking change as a necessary season of life than avoiding
it. People should love change to reach the next level of success in
life.

Some people think that parents should teach
children how to be good members of society. Others, however, believe that
school is the place to learn this.
Discuss both these views and give your own
opinion.
Introduction
Good manners are essential to
live a good life. Manners are something that a child learns from his
family and from school as well. Both these places are very much foundational
in establishing a moral framework in child. However, the topic has been
always a debatable one because the role of both parties in shaping a child’s
destiny is vital. In coming stanzas, I will throw light on some concrete
ideas belonging to this.
Body para 1
Primarily, the parents of a
child are his first teachers as they educate him to think, to feel, to
express, to listen, to share, to laugh, to walk, to smile and almost every
minute thing at very basic level. Moreover, a child is also very
much sensitive to learn things from his parents because on them he
trusts blindly. Apart from this factor, one more thing is also
there, parents can think about their children beyond the possible and they
are much more connected to their children biologically as well as
emotionally. So it’s quite clear that role of parents in educating
their children towards moral values and basic know-how of life is
totally imperative.
Body para 2
Another sound perspective on this issue is
also available and that is about the role of schools in installing
worthy manners in children. The role of school atmosphere is of
huge importance in teaching moral skills to children as school and children
enjoys a healthy time interval for years on daily basis.
Somewhere, school teachers are second parents of a child and they seriously
mean this job. Importance of school is worth considerable as far as
preparation of a child to become an asset for society is concerned.
Conclusion
The significant perspective on subject of role of parents
and teachers in creating a responsible social citizen out of a child is that they
both have key roles to play in this. Both parties should go hand in hand in
raising a child towards becoming a super kid.

Nowadays, the way many people interact with
each other has changed because of technology. In what ways has the technology
affected the types of relationships people make? Has this become a positive or
negative development?
Introduction
With evolution, new things emerge.
There are certainly new ways of doing things in all walks of life
because of the absolute development of technology worldwide. The
basic art of communication is also influenced with this revolution
of technology. It is quite clear that art of sharing thoughts and
emotions is very ancient art as well as a basic need of people. Today
also, people love to interact with people but the platforms have
changed. The mindset behind using the sources to share views has
transformed. In coming paragraphs, I will explicate the both grounds to
reach a concrete conclusion.
Body para 1
Technology has hugely impacted the communication
patterns and it has provided magical opportunities of connecting to
people with whom we want to connect anywhere in the world. Technology
has reduced the time interval in connecting with somebody at different
location. It also increased / enhanced / magnified / amplified the clarity of
communication. It has also reduced the cost of interaction in many ways. Now
one does not need to travel to know the wellbeing of his beloved.
Certainly, relationships got affected with this new current of advancement in
the means of communication.
Body para 2
Perspective of establishing a relationship
and maintaining it has largely changed / altered / shifted /
transformed because things have become superficial. Yes technology has given
us wings but also it significantly reduced the physical interaction
or face to face interaction within people and as an impact of it,
today the relationships are suffering a lot / drastically.
Conclusion
Development is positive if one considers the
advancement parts like speed, accuracy, range of connectivity and opening
of new horizons but it is quite dangerous / detrimental if one looks /
focuses / observes the naturality and emotional strengthening of relationships.
Toolkits of 21st century must be utilized with proper care as
it should maintain / retain / sustain the intimacy and respect of
relationships.

Increasing the price of petrol is the best
way to solve growing traffic and pollution problems.
To what extent do you agree or disagree?
What other measures do you think might be
effective?
Introduction
Quite common concern of the day is Issue of increased
traffic and pollution for humanity and environment. A
nation should be very much responsible towards reducing both these
issues. Here, the concept is about taking some concrete steps to mitigate
the traffic and pollution problems. One way of doing it, is by increasing
the petrol prices so that the vehicle users should think twice before taking
their vehicles somewhere unimportantly. Somewhere, it is a good step towards
creating a mindset like petrol is costly and one should be careful in using his
vehicle for meaningful tasks. Both views are looking quite impactful in
first glance but to measure / testify / ponder / check / observe their vitality,
I will explicate them in coming paragraphs.
Body para 1
I am not totally agree (I am partially agree / I do have
a biased opinion for) with the opinion of increasing petrol prices to
create a balance for environment as petrol prices are not the sole
factor behind the traffic and pollution issues. There are certain other
steps those can also be proved quite effective in creating a lasting
balance for environment. By implementing driving rules and policies
strictly, we can ensure good consequence. Aged vehicles should be
banned from further use. By promoting the concept of car-pooling, we
can nicely secure our climate as it will reduce the number of cars of road
as well as the probabilities of accident. Vehicle should be given at
a certain age to children and it should be followed strictly. These are certain
ideas to strictly modify the existing situation.
Body para 2
Public transportation should be in the mainstream
and it should be magnetic or green fuel based so that it will be negatively
influence our environment. A great movement with the help of media
can be started to make common people aware about usage of public
transport and its powerful impacts on country’s health and economy.
Awareness is the main thing in this because as people get awareness about a
thing like it is causing / affecting / treating our country and economy badly,
they automatically start taking actions to make the situation better.
Conclusion
Issue of traffic and pollution is a big one and
it can be certainly controlled by taking strong steps and one of them is
increasing the petrol prices. Apart from raising petrol prices, other
initiatives must be welcomed to render proper traffic climate within the
cities.

In some countries the average weight of
people is increasing and their levels of health and fitness are decreasing.
What do you think are the causes of these
problems and what measures could be taken to solve them?
Introduction
Lifestyle of people has been totally changed and
the consequences of this are quite severe. It is true that people
are living a comfortable, hi-tech life and having everything available
that was somewhere beyond imagination few decades earlier. There are
powerful impacts of fast lifestyle and easy means of living life on health of
people. Health is wealth; it is significant even in today’s times. Both views have
solid grounds and worth considering and before reaching to a concrete
solution, I will explicate it at length in coming paragraphs.
Body para 1
Talking about the causes of this decreased
level of fitness, there are various factors likewise food
quality, eating habits, stuff of the food, passive lifestyle, sitting routine,
rich availability extra comfortable transportation means and era of
virtual gadgets. Online revolution is somewhere also responsible to
bring fatness in people as there are easy and fast / quick / instant
shopping options are available. One
more thing, there is almost every useful item is present / available with
shopping list / spree. Interest towards indoor activities and games has also
touched the sky and this is causing inactive lifestyle.
Body para 2
If there are problems so there exist
solutions as well. One can take powerful steps to
ensure a fit and slim body likewise he can choose to wake up early,
choose to take fast foods occasionally, decide to use stairs twice a day
instead of using lifts every time, can take the bold decision of living an rich
and purposeful life with vision of daily learning. A person without vision
and definite goal is destined to enjoy ill health in his life.
Conclusion
Health issues are quite common in today’s life but
the active lifestyle nicely coupled with a meaningful purpose of life is
can be a rich source of living a fit and fulfilled life. People must nurture
the thought of active lifestyle and fit body in their communities
and it will be an appreciable / substantial / commendable move.

Some experts believe that it is better for children to
begin learning foreign language at primary school than secondary school.
Do the advantages of this outweigh the disadvantages?
Introduction
Learning a new language is always fruitful
and provides us new avenues to understand and explore our world.
This present subject is of huge debate that whether students at primary
level should get trained for a foreign language or this should be done
at secondary level. Both directions are looking imperative with deeper
insights, before reaching to a meaningful conclusion; I will explicate
every aspect thoroughly in coming stanzas.
Body para 1
Main idea
Students at younger age have a keen curiosity towards
getting news eyes to feel the outside world. There is a famous wisdom
also that says if you have a new language with you then you have an
additional vision for your life. There are certain things that are great
with primary school children like powerful learning attitude, innocence towards
new things and a great discipline to work on new stuff and a freshness of
mindset.
Body para 2
Supporting idea
It is of huge importance to install a foreign
language in the minds of primary students because it opens
their mind towards the new possibilities and new horizons across the
world in which they live. At primary age, naturally their have a fresh
slate with less things in it so it is quite easy and effective to make
them understand the foreign language. Certainly, knowledge of a new
language will provide them confidence, wider approach, creativity, sense of
bigness of their world, new thinking ways and lot possibilities.
Body para 3
While there are some contrary views to the
situation also likewise, somewhere, it is also urgent to
consider this point that once they finish their primary school they must be
liberal to learn the new language. One more powerful scenario is at the
age of secondary, they will be in a position to feel the importance and
the availability of changes that new language will bring in their lives.
Somewhere, at the secondary stage, they will be more open about
understanding the career broadness that learning of new language will incorporate
in their professional look.
Conclusion
Eventually, I pen down saying that it
is highly impactful to equip the primary students with foreign language
than at the level of secondary. For sure, this will enable them with
linguistic tools in much lesser age.

Some people believe that unpaid community service should
be a compulsory part of high school programs (for example working for a
charity, improving the neighborhood or teaching sports to younger children.
To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Introduction
This is a powerful idea of engaging
high school students in activities where they learn humanity, working for
bigger causes, adding values in other people’s life, making
the world more beautiful than they found it and creating lasting impressions
on the minds of people to whom they will serve. I do strongly agree
with the opinion of applying unpaid community programmes in school
curriculum.
Body para 1
Ultimately, the sole aim of education is enabling the
student in finding his inner music in a way that he can serve the world
meaningfully and can live a purposeful life in all respects. When
the question of inspiring high school students towards unpaid community
services comes, it is a practice of huge worth in all dimensions.
A student with a wider social knowledge, with better understanding
of adding values in the lives of people and with clear understanding
of give and take principle of social success in life, can prove himself an
asset for his society.
Body para 2
Somewhere, it is also true that with these
services, he will automatically learn the importance of right attitude,
polite voice, mutual respect and sense of togetherness. One of the
most fruitful aspects of this scenario is the student will take more
interest in his studies because now he is in a position to interpret the
reason like what is the use of him in society and how he can add
more values in other’s life.
Body para 3
An eye opening fact is that it
will add simplicity and purity of thoughts in student’s life and he will
live an intense life with a sense of completeness and a sense
of purpose. Indirectly, a shallow and half lived life will abandon
the student automatically because now he is doing some real work for
mankind.
Conclusion
The idea of encouraging high school students towards
unpaid community services is of immense importance in all aspects hence
it should be welcomed with open heart. Educational institutes must come
forward to implement such steps with absolute involvement.

Some people say that the best way to improve
public health is by increasing the number of sports facilities. Others,
however, say that this would have little effect on public health and that other
measures are required.
Discuss both these views and give your own
opinion.
Introduction
The subject of health is always been of huge
concern. Somewhere for the government, it is also a hard
assignment to implement proper strategies related to providing
better health facilities. There are people who think like spreading the
sports facilities is fruitful step while others are strongly disagree
this. In coming paragraphs, I will clearly explicate the both scenarios.
Body para 1
Initiative of bestowing more sports
facilities is an appreciable one. Once a person goes through
sports schedule daily obviously he keeps his body active and fit.
Apart from physical fitness, sports also introduce a toughness in mental
abilities which is very good. The best thing about sports facilities is,
it is not an expensive project when we look at its consequence at mass
level in long run. Certainly, people can be inspired to use physical
exercises in their morning and evening routine as a daily dose of
exercise medicines.
Body para 2
But apart from introducing sports facilities,
there are certain other measures are also which are quite meaningful
in this regard. Likewise, people should be motivated to take walk at
least twice a day for 2 kilometers. They should also be guided to take
fast food occasionally in their daily routine.
Body para 3
One more interesting fact about public health
is,
most of the people do not try anything new in their routine and choose to
become fatty in their physical shape. They should encourage
themselves to learn new things, new skills, new arts and new concepts
because by this they will be utilizing their creative powers in
purposeful works and along with this, they will be making themselves free
from a stress based lifestyle. Such initiatives are far more
powerful than providing sports facilities on mass level.
Conclusion

Solved sample 32
Every year several languages die out. Some
people think that this is not important because life will be easier if there
are fewer languages in the world.
To what extent do you agree or disagree with
this opinion?
Introduction
Language is a kind of asset for
any religion or culture. As the size of earth and number of present
traditions are quite high so it is natural / obvious / spontaneous that
we have hundreds of languages and thousands of regional languages. More is
the variety of people living on earth so more is number of languages spoken by
them. But the picture / scenario is changing. Languages are reducing
drastically every year because of globalization.
Body para 1
The concept of one earth and one world is
great in the sense of spreading equality and a sense of mutual
cooperation between various countries of the world. However, it is strongly
giving its positive feedbacks as well as negative ones. One
of the ill feedbacks of this is the regional languages and even sometimes
the national languages are leaving / emptying their place and going
out of trend. Because of earning reasons, people globally prefer
to use languages which are acceptable and are languages of common
trade.
Body para 2
Somewhere, the urbanization is
also forcing people to move from their traditional lifestyle to advance
and city-based lifestyle so in this transition, they are choosing
/ opting to use city-based accents and languages. But certainly,
there are positives also of this situation; it is quite easy to interact
with people if they recognize our language. And if we have few languages
then naturally the communication will be proper and meaningful. Dying of
languages is not a planned thing it is happening naturally with the
evolution of mankind. Of course, life would be easier and interesting if
people have few languages to interact and to understand. Language barrier
will be removed up to a large extent.
Conclusion
With loss of a language,
its cultural legacy goes away which is not good for the strength of cultural
diversity but on the other side, if we prefer easiness of communication
among several civilizations then it is a-boon-kind-of-situation.
