The following paragraphs of this essay will analyze two factors that support my opinion while establishing my point as well.

Since the first type of sport humankind has invented dozens of competitive activities. Most of them are healthy and handy, on the other hand, others could be even dangerous.

Some experts hold the view that it’s better for children to start learning foreign language at primary school rather than secondary school. give advantages and disadvantages.

Most educators believe that the sooner you learn the language, the more time to learn, less to learn, and fewer inhibitions. Although heir is more enthusiastic and likely to retain a native-like accent when learning a foreign dialect at an early age, confusion and delay in wording development could highly occur. In my opinion, students are far better off gaining knowledge of other languages despite the challenges that they will inevitably face.
