It is argued by some people that spending time reading the news in newspapers and on TV is useless and worthless because there is no link between news and human life. In my personal point of view, I disagree with that point of view. There are some reasons why it is valuable to spend time reading the news in newspapers and watching the news programs on television. The

first

reason is that updating the information frequently give readers more choices of jobs. There are a lot of companies using newspapers as a means of staff recruitment.

Therefore

, job seekers have more opportunities to apply for their suitable position. Another advantage of reading newspapers is being aware of danger in society. The reported crimes in newspapers will raise awareness of citizens about bad things

Write about the following topic: 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? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.
We are now living in the era of globalization. Therefore, English is a language which is spoken universally in all parts of the world. Nowadays, we see that English as a language is being taught more as compared to local languages in school. If it continues, many local languages will be diminished. In my opinion, It is very vital for every person to learn English as it has lots of pros but leaving behind local languages is not a recommended thing. We need to ensure the existence of local languages and we will discuss how this can be done.
