Some people believe that unpaid community service should be a compulsory part of high school programs (for example working for a charity, improving the neighbourhood or teaching sports to younger children). To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Today, there are mixed views as to the high
school
students
' unpaid community
services
. Some people believe high
school
 programs have to contain volunteers to force their
students
. In my view,
this
 will be an enormous experience for
students
 and helpful for them. Admittedly, high
school
students
' unpaid community
services
 contain some drawbacks.
To begin
 with, many
students
 have applied to universities for their future careers, and some universities require some volunteer hours.
Thus
, many
students
 participate in many kinds of association
services
 as volunteers to get the volunteer hours.
For example
, many
students
 in Korea back many elderlies or child amenities and they get volunteer hours.
However
, many
students
 do those activities halfheartedly.
Therefore
, the
students
 cannot get any impressions or experience from the works,
consequently
, those kinds of activities might be wasting time for the
students
.
However
, I believe forcing unpaid community
services
 will do good to high
school
students
. It is true that most high
school
students
 will be a part of society as adults in the future,
thus
, they have to learn about the responsibility of adults and the role of part of society.
Therefore
, they can learn those responsibilities and the part to back the communities through volunteering.
Furthermore
, people generally can feel some achievements and happiness when they help someone,
accordingly
, the
students
 will feel those positive feelings.
Consequently
, it will play an important role in the advanced society in the future. In conclusion,
students
 can get advantages from doing free social
services
.
Although
 their activities are not sincere, the student can learn the role and responsibilities of adults.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
