It is said that today in some nations people have chosen increasingly to live alone more than the past. I strongly believe that it is a negative development.
Living alone is a new trend which many people specially who live in developed countries tend to it. However, this lifestyle can reduce their quality of life. When people live alone, they may bear weight all costs and responsibilities. For example, they may face skyrocketing housing prices and living costs. As a result, they may rent or buy an inappropriate house or may not be able to manage their costs. This leads to a reduction of their quality of life.

Some people think that countries should limit the amount of food that they import and mainly eat products from their own country. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
A lot of countries trade products with other nations. Some individuals would argue that these countries must limit these imports and focus on their own production as the main source of nutrition. I believe that it is better to maintain the import of food from other countries because it is a good way to keep a variety in the supermarket for customers and possibly get better food quality.

Some university students want to learn about other subjects in addition to their main subjects. Others believe it is more important to give all their time and attention to studying for a qualification. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
Become expert in a such specialist qualification is a must amongst the students. Some higher educational institutions aim for their pupils to study not only fundamental ones but also additional educational program courses, meanwhile, others assume that it is more critical to allocate their time and pay attention to the subject that they are qualified. I perceive that this condition would have some impact on the students later on. Thus, I would like to explain both of those conditions and the following additional reasons.
