Others, however, argue that the circumstances of an individual crime, and the motivation for committing it, should always be taken into account when deciding on the punishment. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

Friendships that take place online are not as meaningful as those where people meet each other face to face. To what some extent do you agree or disagree?

In my point of view, online friendships are as worthwhile as face-to-face friendships. Firstly, online friendships can be just as genuine and profound as in-person ones. People often share deep thoughts and emotions online, forming strong bonds based on mutual interests and experiences. For example, many individuals find supportive communities online where they can express themselves more freely than in their offline lives. This can lead to meaningful connections that might not have been possible in face-to-face settings.

Some people say that arts subject such as painting or drawing should not be made compulsory for high school students. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Some people think that competition at work, at school and in daily life is a good thing. Others believe that we should try to cooperate more, rather than competing against each other.
In the contemporary epoch, from some individuals' standpoint, competition is useful in several sectors of our lives, such as work, educational establishments, and daily life. In contrast, other people believe that cooperation is more helpful than competition. Both of them have positive and negative aspects, in my opinion, cooperating with other people is the best approach in all places.
