The average standard of people's health is likely to be lower in the future than it is now. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

Some people say that the best way to improve public health is by increasing the number of sport 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.
There are two opposite opinions about methods that may help to make people’s health better. The first one is including as more physical activities as it possible and the second is apply other techniques, because sport has minimum effect on health.

Many people use distance-learning programmes (study material, post, TV, the Internet, etc.) to study at home, but some people think that it cannot bring the same benefits of attending college or university. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?
Over the last decades, the online world has completely changed our perception of reality, as well as our educational experience. Today more and more people and organisations opt for a distance-learning format, however, there is no mutual understanding on the matter of benefits that such a format provides. Personally, I strongly disagree with those, who reckon that online education is less advantageous than offline one.

Smoking not only harms the smoker but also those who are nearby. Therefore, smoking should be banned in public places.
