Some people think that a sense of competition in children should be encouraged. Others believe that children who are taught to co- operate rather than compete become more useful adults. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
Cooperation

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

possesses them, the higher the possibility Use synonyms

For instance
, my neighbour Xiao Ming did not have the spirit of Linking Words
competition
at his secondary school. He did not care about his grade in the final exams and Use synonyms
thus
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 Linking Words
this
tragedy from happening again, we shall teach our kids how to compete.

Secondly
, the Linking Words

of Use synonyms
cooperation
is an auxiliary strategy for survival in Use synonyms
this
cruel nature. It is a must for people to know how to cooperate, but it should be Linking Words
second
to the value of Linking Words

. Use synonyms
That is
to say, Linking Words
cooperation
helps people to improve their communication skills and emotional intelligence, but as long as the Use synonyms
sense
of comparison exists in Use synonyms
this
world, it shall not be the main value children should gain. Linking Words
For example
, 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. Linking Words
Nevertheless
, everybody sitting around Bob wanted to beat him in math, and Linking Words
thus
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 Linking Words
this
modern society. Linking Words
Therefore
, I consider the Linking Words
sense
of Use synonyms
competition
more valuable than the Use synonyms
sense
of Use synonyms
cooperation
