What are the differences and similarities between play and work

#differences #similarities #work
Since the creation of mankind, there have been play and
work
. And whenever a new era passes, games develop and there are new businesses that no one has ever practised before. In
this
 essay, I will explain the similarities and differences between play and
work
. There are many similarities between play and
work
 as they both have rules to abide by and if you break them you will be fired or lose.
Secondly
, both of them need either physical or mental strength.
For
example
, industry and playing basketball require physical strength. Education and the game of chess need mental strength.
Also
, a person can combine the two, where his
work
 is his favourite game.
For
example
, a person who loves football can be a football player, who earns money from his favourite game as a
work
. And there are some differences between
work
 and play.
First,
play is only for fun and there is no seriousness in it, unlike
work
, where it must be serious about the subject.
Secondly
, playing has no responsibility and does not depend on people's
lives
, but
work
 has a great responsibility and depends on other people's
lives
.
Finally
, playing does not have a financial gain or a monthly salary like
work
. An
example
 of
this
 is the doctor, he must be responsible and serious because people's
lives
 are in his hands and he will definitely have a monthly income ,unlike games.Another
example
 is the pilot, as he must be serious and careful at the time of flight because he has many souls with him and he is responsible for their
lives
. In the end,
although
 there are some similarities between play and
work
.
work
 is much more important than play.since without
work
Add a comma
,work
show examples
 you will not be able to live.

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
