It is too expensive to look after and repair old building. This money should be spent on building modern buildings instead. To what extent do agree or disagree?
There is a debate about whether money should be spent on maintaining and repairing old buildings or used to construct modern ones. Some believe that the cost of preserving old structures is too high and that investing in modern architecture is a more practical choice. While I understand the benefit of modern buildings, I disagree with the idea that old buildings should be neglected.

Some experts believe that it is better for children to begin learning a foreign language at primary schools rather than secondary schools. Do the advantages of this outweigh the disadvantages?
Some authorities think that it is more favourable for pupils to begin studying languages at primary school instead of secondary school. This essay will argue that the advantages of this outweigh the drawbacks. The essay will first demonstrate that the earlier someone learns an additional language, the more likely they are to master it and that it brings added cognitive benefits, followed by an analysis of how the primary disadvantage, namely confusion with their native tongue, is not valid.

Some people believe that computers are more a hindrance than a help in today’s world. Others feel that they are such indispensable tools that they would not be able to live or work without them. In what ways are computers a hindrance? What is your opinion?
Indeed, the personal computer is an epoch-changing innovation, transforming how humans live and work fundamentally. While some believe that machines have become a must-have nowadays, there are certain aspects in which these devices can impede human development, and to fully utilise their potential, one must strike a balance between treating them as a tool and an obsession.

Learning English at school is often seen as more important than learning local languages. If these are not taught, many are at risk of dying out. In your opinion, is it important for everyone to learn English? Should we try to ensure the survival of local languages and, if so, how? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.
Many people believe that it is more essential to learn English than local languages. However, these languages may disappear if people are not taught them. I argue that everyone should learn English, but also should try to make some effort to retain local languages. In this essay, I will explain why I think both English and local languages are important and how to save local languages.
