Many employees can now do their work from home using modern technology. However, this change may only benefit the workers, not the employers. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
With modern sophisticated technology, instead of travelling to work, a greater number of workers are working from home, connecting their computers or other devices to the internet. As such, working traditions have changed with a new trend nowadays, while others believe that it only satisfies the employee rather than the employer. In my opinion, although both views have merit, I strongly agree that working remotely does not only satisfy personnel but also the management.

Learning English at school is often seen as more important than learning local languages. If these are not taught, many are at risk of dying out. In your opinion, is it important for everyone to learn English? Should we try to ensure the survival of local languages and, if so, how?
Studying English is generally perceived as more essential and has a lot more urgency than a native local language subject as English is deemed as a global language. Consequently, this results in a diminishing number of local language speakers. Although learning English is still quite important, it has many other mediums that can contribute to the language introduction. Hence, this essay will elaborate on the urgency for more attention towards the preservation of native languages in both school and everyday life and some potential efforts needed to preserve them.
