Education for young people is important in many countries. However, the others think government should spend more money for education in adult population who can not read and write. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
The focus of
education
has long been a subject of heated debate around the world. While
some people hold the view that special attention should be directed towards illiterate adults, others place emphasis on youth
education
. Although
well aware of the significant importance of improving adult
literacy, I am of the opinion that the majority of educational resources should be allocated to young learners.
On the one hand, it is necessary that the governments put an end to the perennial problem of adult
illiteracy. Poor literacy and numeracy skills prove the major obstacles to occupational mobility. More specifically, it is an irrefutable fact that in Vietnam, a considerable number of agricultural workers are unable to move from traditional manual jobs to skilled manual jobs or non-manual jobs due to a lack of education
. Accordingly
, the ever-persisting problem poses a grave threat to the well-being of individuals and the development of the economy.
On the other hand
, mobilizing financial resources to increase the quality of youth
education
is much more important than resolving adult
illiteracy. First, since children are the future pillars of a nation, the neglect of education
for youngsters leads to far-reaching consequences by creating a new generation of low-quality human resources, which in turn impedes economic growth. Moreover
, as the young’s ability to learn is normally better than that of adults, youth
education
proves more beneficial and effective than adult
education
in the long term.
To recapitulate, although
I concur that actions should be taken to eradicate adult
illiteracy and innumeracy, I would reaffirm that more attention ought to be paid towards youth
education

The Greeting
Depending on the style and aim of the letter, you will need to adapt your greeting.
Always start an informal letter in the ways:
- Dear + name
- Hi / Hello + name
‘Dear...’ is more appropriate, so stick with this.
For a formal letter there are two options for the greeting:
- Use Dear Sir or Madam if you don’t know the name of the person you are writing to.
- Use Dear + surname if you do know their name, e.g. Dear Mr Smith or Dear Mrs Jones.
