some people think that children who spend a lot of time reading children's story book are wasting their time which could be better used doing other more useful activities. To what extent do you agree?
There is no denying the fact that some people believe kids are wasting their time when they spend a lot of time reading stories instead of doing other activities. While it is a commonly held belief that sharing in other activities may be more beneficial. there is also an argument that opposes it. In my opinion, I consider that reading has many benefits for children.

Present a written argument or case to an educated reader with no special knowledge of the following topic: News editors decide what to broadcast on television and what to print in newspapers. What factors do you think influence these decisions? Do we become used to bad news? Would it be better if more good news was reported? Use your own ideas, knowledge and experience and support your arguments with examples and relevant evidence.
It is a questionable issue what should be telecast and what should be printed in newspapers by the decision of news editors. This essay will include answers with explanations of what decisions influence and how they affect and are reported such as firstly positive news as updating weather forecasting and health-related news, and lastly, crime and political issues could be negatively influenced if showing bad ways.

Some people believe that younger family members should be legally responsible for supporting older family members when they become physically, mentally and financially unable to take care of themselves. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Certain people believe that younger generations ought to provide for their elders, once they lose the capability to do it themselves. Past several years trend among youth steadily increased, by taking responsibility for older family members. I completely agree with the mentioned statement. Analyzing the advantages of a secure retirement, as well as the obligation that younger people take on themselves, will prove my point.

Studying with a group of students in a classroom is more beneficial than learning online at home. To what extent do you agree or disagree? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.
Each individual has their own set of strengths and weaknesses in studying. Some people prefer to sit in their own homes, enabling them to study at their own pace. Critics against this argue that studying among peers in a classroom has more advantages. I strongly disagree that a classroom setting has more benefits due to its strict pace and rigid schedule.

Some people say that parents should encourage their children to take part in organised group activities in their free time. Others say that it is important for children to learn how to occupy themselves on their own. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
