Today, the 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?

In this new millennium, profitable sales of desired customer products solely depend on the branding of the product which does not consider the direct requirements of the society. Likewise, I agree with this notion, as buyers are greatly influenced by exaggerated commercials on social media, and they don't invest their money wisely in the inevitable needs.

Some people are of the opinion that children should be rewarded for good behaviour. Others think they should be punished for bad behaviour. Discuss both views and give your personal opinion and reasons.

The minds of the children can be shaped during the early years of their life so caregivers have to be cautious about their behaviour. A few people ponder that offspring should be presented with a reward for showing the best behaviour while others postulate that they should be punished when they misbehave.This essay will discuss both sides of the argument in detail and provide evidence as to why I am personally in favour of motivating a child when they behave in a good manner with everyone.

school teachers used to be the source of information . However, some people argue that teachers are not as important as before as the increasing variety of information resources. Do you agree or disagree.

Although it is believed by certain people that the role of teachers has been superseded by the growing number of informative resources.In my opinion,I completely disagree with this perspective as an evolution of any kind of technology can never replace the intelligence and skills of an instructor.

band

Teenagers should never be put in the same prison with adults no matter how serious their crime is. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this?

Nowadays, youngsters are getting involved with various crimes in society which warrants a jail term. It has been suggested that they should not be kept with the grown-ups for specific reasons, and I agree entirely with the opinion. This essay will discuss why these two groups should be separated in jail.

Increasing the price of petrol is the best way to solve traffic and pollution problem. To what extent do you agree or disagree? What other measures do you think might be effective.

While there are apparent enormous benefits of increasing the fuel rates to curb the problem of pollution and traffic congestion but there are significant discernible drawbacks such as preventing a section of society from accessing personal vehicles. I agree with the former statement to an extent. However, there are alternatives that are beneficial for society at large. Explicated below are the reasons for my assertions.

band

Some people believe that non academic subjects should be removed from the syllabus so that children can concentrate only on academics. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Subjects in the classroom course work are chosen meticulously so that they enlighten the students' learning process. However, non-educational domains receive a conflict welcome as the school of thought consider that it breaks the child's attention, whilst others deny it. I strongly contempt the former conviction and elucidate my point of view with suitable reasoning.

band

It is sometimes said that people should be encouraged to get married before they are 30, as this is the best both for individual and society. Do you agree or disagree?

Some people think job satisfaction is more important than job security, while others believe that having a permanent job is better than enjoying the job. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

Government investment in the arts, such as music and theatre, is a waste of money. Governments must invest this money in public services instead. Do you agree or disagree?

Some people believe that ministry should advance more money in entertainment and others believe they should be devoted to community facilities. The public should be provided with basic needs by the official such as school, collages, and hospitals while lack of these can harm their survival. It is agreed that investment should be made to benefit people’s need. In my opinion, the absence of learning institution and health administration can increase literacy and death rate in society which can lead to economic problems in a country.

This essay will discuss the causes of rural-urban migration and profer solutions to it.

Big salary is much more important than job satisfaction. Do you agree or disagree? Provide relevant examples if necessary.

It is argued that earning lots of money is more significant to people than being happy at a job. This testament disagrees with this statement. I believe that people are increasingly concerned about the risk of stress-related ill-health frequently experienced by them at highly paid jobs and they care more about the feeling of fulfilment at work.

band

Some people believe that people have the right to university education and government should make it free no matter what their financial background. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

It is often said that students have the right to higher education and the nation should provide it for free of cost irrespective of their economical status. However, in my perspective, I strongly believe that it should not be considered a privilege and there should not be a compulsion on the part of the state to make it available without any cost.

band

Countries are becoming more and more similar because people are able to buy the same products anywhere in the world. Do you think this is a positive or negative development?

The world is becoming smaller every now and then. All the products are mostly available to potential customers all over the world. Even I agree that the nations are turning out to be more or less similar as most of the items are easily available globally.

Some people believe that teaching children at home is best for a child’s development while others think that it is important for children to go to school. Discuss the advantages of both methods and give your own opinion. Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

Education is considered to be the chief architect in the growth of a child and many think that a school is a go-to zone for educating them, whereas others opine this notion and believe home is the best place to educate a kid. In my opinion, the school provides more benefits, as a young mind can evolve better around each other. Though, both the standpoints have their own merits which shall be discussed in the forthcoming paragraphs.

In a number of countries, some people think it is necessary to spend large sums of money on constructing new railway lines for very fast trains between cities. Others believe the money should be spent on improving existing public transport. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

The expenditure on public transport is under debate. Pertaining to this, certain advocates believe that the maximum expenses should be diverted on the development of the novel rail tracks for superfast trains while some critics oppose the idea as they feel that the present modes of travel must be improved. However, in my perspective, I strongly believe that there is a need for bullet trains for faster connectivity.
