The growing numbers of overweight people is putting a strain on the health care system in an effort to deal with the health issues involved. Some people think that the best way to deal with this problem is to introduce more physical education lessons in the school curriculum. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

The growing number of overweight people makes a health care system a more concerning issue to be tackled immediately.

Art is an inseparable part of human existence; therefore, it is also a part of a high school programme. However, there is still a lack of consensus on whether it should be compulsory or not. While each of these views has both pros and cons, I believe that arts courses should be obligatory for all students.

Fresh produce is more frequently being exported by air into countries where it is out of season or impossible to grow. The advantages of this are that consumers can enjoy a wider range of fresh fruit and vegetables all year and some countries rely on imported food to feed their people. However, this puts tremendous strain on the environment because of harmful farming methods and pollution produced by airplanes.

Some people think that universities should accept equal numbers of male and female students in every subject. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

These days, people's lifestyles are so varied from the prior owing to the fact that women like men can do a rage of the work, so a group of people believe that it is important that universities have the same figures for both genders in various fields. In my opinion, we have to think both sexes are the same as each other, and based on their exams accept them for every subject inasmuch as populations have different abilities; moreover, some works are better for one gender.

Some people believe that there will be approximately 29 million vehicles by the year 2000, which made them argue that there should be a replacement for cars and an international law to control car ownership and use. This essay agrees with the notion above because reducing the number of cars on roads will clear the air pollution and make the roads safer for cyclers.

There is an opinion asserting that a lot can be inferred that tutoring from other sources is much easier to learn than instructing in universities and schools. These interpretations can provide us with an insight into how these institutions could provide a quiet place for learning.I, however, agree with the given statement on the basis of financial constraints and connecting between students and teachers.

Marketing is a powerful tool widely used by businesses to attract potential customers. Among the numerous methods of advertising, emphasizing that products are new or have unique features has become the most popular strategy. This approach stems from the limitations of advertising mediums and the need to capture consumer attention quickly. In my opinion, this trend is a positive development because it fosters innovation and offers consumers a variety of choices.

It is well known that a great number of Britain's elderly population opt to move to aged care where they are well looked after. Sometimes it is paid by the government. In my opinion, although families should pay for this care, governments should give economic support when needed. I will argue the reasons in the ensuing paragraphs.

Fashion trends are difficult to follow these days and it’s widely believed that they primarily exist just to sell clothes. Some people believe that we shouldn’t follow them and that we should dress in what we like and feel comfortable in. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion

It is commonly believed that it is very difficult to follow fashion trends and they still exist just to sell clothes nowadays. Otherwise, some people say citizens should dress in comfortable dress also what they like. I fully agree that citizens should wear anything that they want because I believe a comfortable dress makes people more confident rather than just following the trends.

It goes without saying that communication has a significant role in business development.

There is no denying the fact that staying on the phone or watching TV is enjoyable, but it has its disadvantages.

In my opinion, excessive screen time can diminish children’s mental abilities. This essay will discuss how this can cause children to lose focus in school and weaken their social skills.
