Some people think government should ban dangerous sports, such as sky diving and rock climbing. Do you agree or disagree?
In recent years, the discussion surrounding the prohibition of perilous sports activities like skydiving and rock climbing has garnered significant attention. While some argue for the preservation of individual freedom and the exhilaration these sports provide, I firmly contend that the government should indeed impose bans on such activities. This stance is rooted in the paramount importance of safeguarding human lives, minimizing societal burdens, and fostering a culture of responsible recreation.

Some educationist think that international exchange visit will benefit teenagers at school. To what extent do the advantages outweigh disadvantages?
Travelling and learning about a new place, culture, standard of living of different people from various countries from a very young age would help children have better growth and development. International visits to different countries and exploring places with friends and teachers would have both advantages and disadvantages to the teenagers at school. In my opinion it has more benefits compared to the drawbacks.
