There is a lot of pressure on young people today to succeed academically. As a result, some people believe that non-academic subjects, such as physical education and cookery, should be removed from the school syllabus so that children can concentrate on academic work. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Students nowadays are under a lot of pressure to achieve academical success in order to get into a good university or secure a well paid job. For this reason some people argue that schools need to focus on academic subjects and vocational subjects should therefore not taught at schools. I would argue that while academic skills are important, schools need to teach a wide range of both academic and more skills-based subjects.

Smoking is a major cause of serious illness and death throughout the world today. In the interest of the public health, government should ban cigarettes and other tobacco products. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
In the modern era, there have been accompanying issues with smoking which can be a considerable cause of severe physical health issues. There are some people who believe that accepting smoking tobacco products including cigarettes should be regulated by a government as this increases a massive risk for society members in indirect smoking including children. However, this can be considered as overstepping if a law might be established at the government level. For this reason, I have different viewpoints from them.
