Some people think that because some children find some subjects such as mathematics and philosophy difficult they ought to be optional instead of compulsory. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion.

Some people think that some children need to choose what subject they want. Others believe that they should only be allowed to
study
the subject that schools think it necessary
such
as mathematics and philosophy. In my point of view, I agree with the first group. There are some benefits of making some objects optional.
First,
it can be easy to see that if some
subjects
are optional, children can get motivation in studying. It is easy to understand, no one likes to
study
some
subjects
that they do not want because for so many reasons
such
as they do not good at it or they hate it for some reason.
Moreover
, it saves time for
students
if they
study
subjects
that are related to their future jobs.
For example
, some
students
want to be a doctor,

subjects
and be responsible for their choice. In life, they need to be independent, and not always depend on their parents or others, f in the future, they are poor or anything else can happen, they have to be responsible for their choice.
In contrast
, there are some drawbacks to making some
subjects
optional. Some
students
do not have knowledge about the long-term result of their choice. Some
students
make instinctive choices and do not care about the long-term result.
Moreover
, some
students
are influenced by their friends and make a decision depending on what their friends want to
study
instead
of their needs. In conclusion,
although
many people think that
students
need to
study
some
subjects
compulsory, I personally believe that
students
have to choose what subject that they want is better.

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
