In my opinion, self-study using the internet can only be done by high school students who grow mature enough to discriminate the truth and fake, which cannot be done by primary school-children. Senior students are prone to having their aims set for the future, which could make them focus on their interest, and neglect what is out of it. However, rarely would all these adolescents be able to have mental stamina to finish their online courses, given the fact that they can get distracted by a single notification. Statistically, only 5% of people finish their online courses whether it is free or charged. When primary school-children are concerned, it is irrefutable that they need schooling since it is rudimentary knowledge that serves as a basis of any human accomplishment. Without proper fundamental knowledge that is taught in the early schooling years, it is almost impossible to acquire novelties on one’s own in the later stages.


In conclusion, while there is a belief that the internet can replace schools in terms of education where children can learn various subjects according to their interests at any time, I reiterate that this is not a universally-acceptable idea as the internet is full of inappropriate contents that can ruin children, and schools’ environment and qualified teachers make them enjoyable to go to both to study subjects and learn social values. Even if applied, senior students are the only eligible ones since their minds are highly likely able to distinguish the information type.

The quality of education is getting worse and worse these days. It is, thus, suggested that students be given a chance to give evaluations about their teachers, while others oppose this view claiming that it will lead to disrespect and reduction in discipline. Although it might be sensible to ask students for feedback about teachers in order to improve the quality of lessons, I do not think this should be applied universally everywhere as students may not always be fair to judge.


It is true that people need to get criticized so as to grow in their careers. At schools, some teachers, nowadays, tend to approach lessons carelessly, they might even conduct lessons without a proper preparation. This, in turn, affects the quality of knowledge students are supposed to get, gradually leading to knowledge degradation among youth. To prevent such misdemeanors, it would be profound to allow students to provide feedback about teachers, their lessons. Having received these, school authority can urge instructors to be more cautious, or give admonitions or instructors can even get laid off in the case of failing what they are asked to do. This will be a practical trigger to make teachers work on themselves, try to come up with novelties during lessons to conduct lessons in a more engaging way, eventually increasing the quality of education at school.


However, there could appear certain side affects of applying such a system at school. Students might start to look down on their teachers, given the fact that instructors can get sacked because of children’s opinion. Students can even become more arrogant and extremely delicate to converse with. In certain situations, teachers are supposed to be strict, say when a student has not done homework, or forgot to bring it to school. When students receive warnings, they can develop a sense of hatred towards teachers, thus, end up with pouring scorn on them. This will certainly result in the loss of discipline in the class, and students might even behave disrespectfully feeling too free.


In my opinion, teachers need evaluating; but it should not be entirely done by students only. I think involving experienced teachers in this would be a far better option. As invigilators highly likely have much experience, they can assess the performance of other teachers, say younger ones. The reason why I think skilled teachers should be engaged in it is their expertise; they are highly likely aware of ups and downs in class, they know how to work with students, and there might even be children from different backgrounds. Children from wealthy families are prone to not behave well, they can write unfair feedback about teachers when their misbehavior gets attention. Experienced teachers, on the other hand, would not make assumptions, but they would observe classes, and then provide feedback to teachers after lessons without the involvement of a third party.


In conclusion, while some say that students’ evaluation and criticizing about teachers at school can have a positive influence to enhance the education quality, I think that involving expert teachers as well would be even better as they have enough expertise on how to judge.

The technology has revolutionized many facets of our lives, including the means of transportation, such as cars, buses and lorries. There is a view that all these modes will be able to operate without drivers on their own. While this development may facilitate better traffic conditions with less accidents, as well as helping the disabled, there are certain downsides of this trend that can be seen in employment and security system.


Introducing driverless vehicles can create convenience for the user. Many accidents, happening on roads, are caused by human faults; abrupt braking or merging can cause accidental situations. Robotic vehicles, however, are free from human defects, and can operate at high accuracy, observing the road from all sides. Based on their cameras, they can predict potential crushes, enabling the traffic move freely without shockwave or bottleneck congestion. It can also be beneficial for handicapped people, who might find it challenging to commute to a certain place without a driver. Concerning the buses and trucks, driverlessness would reduce the financial costs required to provide drivers. States may invest that saved money into other spheres, such as education or manufacturing industries, and increase the literacy rate among citizens, ensuring a promising future for government.


Despite the advantages, there will highly likely emerge certain issues with technologically-driven cars. The most significant disadvantage is the potential invasion of privacy. That is, when all means of transport get operated by technology, the risk of gaining access to their system, a type of cybercrime, can become a concerning issue. Criminals could exploit it to their advantage, blocking roads to do a bank robbery or assassination, for example. A growth in the unemployment can be another downturn of such a phenomenon. Drivers of public and agricultural transportation sector will get laid off, and they might face trouble in finding a new job given the fact that they are skilled in driving only. High maintenance costs will be another disadvantage for the government, since looking after the technology and repairing it need professionals who might ask for a fortune as their pay, and the components of the technology do not cost a little money.


In conclusion, although autonomous vehicles can have a number of merits like reduced traffic jams and reduced accidents on roads, safety and redundancy concerns can be attributed to the disadvantageous sides of this idea.

Treating unsatisfactory situations has become a topic of debate these days, with some saying that accepting them is the most sensible way, while others oppose claiming that people ought to find solutions. Although conservative customs and communistic equality may make the first argument sound justifiable, I believe that ceasing is not a proper option.


It is true that some people hold an opinion of not trying to improve their existing situations. One of the primary drives behind this common phenomenon is following the traditions and people around. People in some areas are conservative, meaning that they might be skeptical towards new changes. Instead, they may prefer leading an orthodox lifestyle, a life inherited from their ancestors. Owing to such an attitude, these people, unfortunately, highly unlikely to be able to learn new skills. Even in the case of one showing willingness to trying new things out, conventionalism can halt this person from doing so, since such communities are mostly too judgmental to misdemeanors.


However, proponents of the opposing view suggest that people endeavor to avoid accepting detrimental situations. Human-beings possess an innate desire to explore new activities, challenge themselves in order to make their life better. Never would the mankind be able to reach today’s advances unless they have inborn curiosity. All the discoveries and inventions that have been made so far were thanks to that natural longing. Take modern digital gadgets as a vivid example of this idea. Were it not for them, people would find communicating with each other much more difficult, and this cutting-edge technology has eased the lives of billions of people. Therefore, the notion of trying to improve unwanted conditions seems plausible.


I think the chief reason why people advocate for accepting the fate is probably their lazy mentality. Seeing people around at the same level as they are, people may not want to get out of their comfort zone, securing a decent social position. This stereotype can especially be seen vividly in some African nations, where almost everyone shares equal status, thus, sees no reason to do something extra. However, I think it is implausible to adhere such conservative mindset, as it would be criminal to abstain people from delving into finding resolutions to their issues. Unskilled people can have internships and gain expertise, and become eligible for a competitive salary, while an unsatisfactory job can be replaced by a desired one, which may take awhile to reach top positions. In the case of Cristiano Ronaldo, one of the best footballers of all times, who has achieved a lot of triumphs thanks to working hard to improve his deprived background.


In conclusion, even though there is a claim that urges people to accept undesired conditions, I believe such an attitude mainly forms from traditional living practices and shiftless approach of individuals. I think by letting themselves be curious and working hard, people stand a chance of improving their disadvantageous points, say jobs or low pay.

Some people think that hosting an international sports event is good for the country, while some people think it is bad. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

There is a controversy over the topic of organizing global sports events, with some saying it is beneficial for the host, while others view this point negatively. Although doing so can be practical for the country in some ways, its consequences sound more alarming.


One of the biggest incentives of proponents of organizing global sports events is tourism. That is, when hosting such tremendous sports occasions, countries can get noted by people watching these events, and fans coming to watch them live can go sightseeing while they have free time. This would probably be the best marketing strategy to promote historical heritages, cultural diversity, and traditional values the country possesses, and by engaging tourists in some cultural activities, government stands a chance of making them more enthusiastic. These people, then, may share such first-hand experience with their family and friends when they get back home, which might lead their close ones to select this country as their holiday destinations. Not only do all these bring fame and popularity for the host country, but they also mean considerable financial boost for the economy, since people paying visits highly likely buy various things, particularly national outputs as souvenirs.


On the other hand, there might be some detrimental sides of hosting worldwide sports events. Chaos and violence that might break out during the opposition of aggressive fans can be an alarming issue government would have to deal with. In the cases of not being able to prevent such messes, the host is highly likely to get infamous as being irresponsible. Moreover, a huge flow of people coming outside the country can sometimes behave recklessly, throwing litter anywhere around, causing significant pollution. While supporting their teams, these people can shout, use different kinds of musical instruments, all of which contribute to noise pollution, and people living nearby the sports venues, can suffer from it. In worse scenarios, these locals might even face severe issues if they have serious chronic health problems with their mental stability. Furthermore, to organize such events, governments have to make heavy investments into building new facilities, or reconstructing existing ones, most of which venues will probably not be used frequently after the event ends.


In conclusion, while some claim that hosting international sports events is useful for the country, I think that its downsides are far more severe.

Around the world, more and more people today are living in urban areas. Why is this? What problems does this cause?

Rural-to-urban migration has become a prevalent phenomenon these days. While better public and living facilities, and higher chance of getting a competitive salary can be the major contributors to urbanization, I think this may pose a number of serious issues, such as different forms of pollution, increased crime rates, and social inequality.

It is a common perception to consider cities as a great place to live in, and there are several factors to take into consideration. Advanced public services are probably the utmost drive behind this migration since cities can offer a wide range of high standardized facilities. Better educational opportunities with the proliferation of newly-built schooling institutions along with far advanced medical access naturally make the life in cities much more appealing than living in countrysides, areas where it is challenging to find a decent educational or medical establishment. Economic chances also play an inevitable role before moving to cities from rural areas. It is generally far easier to find highly-paid jobs, and make a good amount of money within a relatively short period of time.

Additionally, the design of modern cities, in other words infrastructure they have, should also be given attention, for basic facilities, such as roads, bridges and other utilities, make cities stand out to choose to reside in. Not having to be able to enjoy such necessities in rural areas, people develop an inclination to living in cities. Apart from that, industrialization bears another weight. thanks to it, city dwellers tend to have much hectic lifestyles, and that is what most people moving to urban areas chase, as most of these people are highly likely to put up with the slow pace in countryside, they might like a higher rhythm.

However, a huge flow into urban areas can breed some serious problems which can be difficult to deal with. Overpopulation may result in the rise in cost of living, housing accommodation prices can basically soar. This growth consequently leads recently-come people to confronting trouble to find an appropriate place to live in; because of housing shortages and not having enough money to afford a decent accommodation, people unintentionally go for slums - a big threat to cities. This will certainly make people anxious and tense, and people can commit crimes to make a living, contributing to the rise in crime rate.

More alarmingly, the adversity of overpopulation can also be seen in pollution. When there are excessively a lot of people, this will cause traffic congestion, as a result of which air pollution gets worsened. Not only air pollution, but it can also breed noise and light pollution, the former emerging naturally owing to the large number of people, and the latter happening to enlighten nights. Little awareness do people have on how much strain on infrastructure they can cause, potentially leading to waste management problems. All these will eventually bring about worsened public health, and there might even be urban sprawls at the end.

In conclusion, although public and financial benefits may incentivize urban people to moving to cities, it can be an antithesis of this by creating issues in housing and crime along with general welfare of people.
