There is no doubt that globalisation has benefited the world by bringing together people, business and nations. People who criticise it stand in the way of progress. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
In the contemporary world, globalisation has been becoming integrated in all processes in today's life. It gives many benefits for internetional trades and making strong bonds between continets.

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.

With an increasing population communicating via the internet and text messaging, face-to-face communication will become a thing of the past. To what extent do you agree with this opinion?
Nowadays it is easier to communicate with others even if we are a long distance apart, the internet is proof of this and has helped us as a society to keep in touch despite the distances. However many people believe this has not only given us facilities but also problems like losing face-to-face communication while encouraging screen-to-screen communication. Even though I think this is true, I will explain why this is not necessarily a bad thing for society.

With the development of social media, more and more youngsters are being allowed unsupervised access to the internet in order to meet and chat with friends which can lead to potentially dangerous situations. What solution can you suggest to deal with this problem?
Nowadays, social media is commonly used everywhere. Especially, the young generation uses social media for making new friends without any restrictions. They can easily involve in any uncertain condition. This was always debatable but has now become more controversial, with many people claiming that it is hazardous while others reject this notion. The substantial influence of this trend has sparked controversy over its potential impact in recent years. According to my perception, social media is becoming more popular day by day. We cannot stop youngsters from using it but we can restrict them and observe their usage.

SOME PEOPLE BELIEVE THAT SONG LYRICS WICH GLORIFY VIOLENCE AND CRIMINAL LIFESTYLES SHOULD BE BANNED. DISCUSS THE ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF SUCH A BAN.
Nowadays, there are more and more song lyrics that talk about stories of criminal lifestyles and their advantages in term of money, authority and respect. Initially, started from rock music, it has evolved now into trap or rap music. Because of this, some people argue that these songs which glorify violence and a negative lifestyle should be banned. In this essay, I will try to explore any possible advantages and disadvantages of this topic and finally, I would state my own opinion regarding the matter.
