one

of these senses. As far as I am concerned, the latter overvalues the former. The reasons are the following.
Firstly
Linking Words
, the
sense
Use synonyms
of
competition
Use synonyms
is the core strategy to obtain greater social resources in
this
Linking Words
modern world. Darwin's theory of evolution tells us the kernel of existence is to compete against each other.
Otherwise
Linking Words
, people would lose the opportunity to have children. In
this
Linking Words
more civilised era, resources,
such
Linking Words
as money and social status, are valued the most among human beings and can merely be obtained through
competition
Use synonyms
. The more
one
Use synonyms
possesses them, the higher the possibility
one

has to get a nice spouse and help
one

's family thrive.
For instance
Linking Words
, my neighbour Xiao Ming did not have the spirit of
competition
Use synonyms
at his secondary school. He did not care about his grade in the final exams and
thus
Linking Words
was not accepted by any high school. An urge for survival forces him to start working and no girls like him due to his poor resources. To stop
this
Linking Words
tragedy from happening again, we shall teach our kids how to compete.
Secondly
Linking Words
, the
sense
Use synonyms
of
cooperation
Use synonyms
is an auxiliary strategy for survival in
this
Linking Words
cruel nature. It is a must for people to know how to cooperate, but it should be
second
Linking Words
to the value of
competition
Use synonyms
.
That is
Linking Words
to say,
cooperation
Use synonyms
helps people to improve their communication skills and emotional intelligence, but as long as the
sense
Use synonyms
of comparison exists in
this
Linking Words
world, it shall not be the main value children should gain.
For example
Linking Words
, my friend Bob was good at history but bad at mathematics. He used to help everyone in class with his best effort in the history assignment and asked them to secretly pass the answers to him in the final exam of mathematics in return.
Nevertheless
Linking Words
, everybody sitting around Bob wanted to beat him in math, and
thus
Linking Words
betrayed him during the exam, which made him get the lowest grade in the class. In conclusion, we are human, and we need to know the tactics to survive in
this
Linking Words
modern society.
Therefore
Linking Words
, I consider the
sense
Use synonyms
of
competition
Use synonyms
more valuable than the
sense
Use synonyms
of
cooperation
Use synonyms
.
