Success is often measure by wealth and material belonging. Do you think wealth is best measure of success? What makes a successful person?
Success has long been synonymous with wealth and material possessions in our society. However, a closer examination reveals that this definition is narrow and limiting. While financial prosperity certainly plays a role in measuring success, it cannot encapsulate the entirety of what it means to be successful. In this essay, we will explore why wealth alone is not the best measure of success and what truly makes a person successful.

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?
Young people today are under pressure to do well at school and go on to higher education to find a good job. For this reason, many people think that non-academic subjects are a waste of time and that schools should only focus on more academic subjects. I would disagree with this opinion and in this essay will explain why.

Some people believe that it is good to share as much information as possible in scientific research, business and the academic world. Others believe that some information is too important or too valuable to be shared freely. Discuss both there views and give your own opinion.
With the rapid growth of technology, today we are facing a large amount of data in many fields, such as industries, hospitals, governments, etc. Some people argue that companies and other departments should share every information they've got, but other citizens believe this can not be a good attitude, because some data is important, and also vulnerable to abuse. While I understand the concerns of conservative people, in my point of view, sharing information is crucial in the contemporary world.
