As life expectancy is increasing, people work after retirement with pay. Alternatively, some people start to work at a young age. Are these positive or negative impacts?
It is considered that individuals' life durations are rising, and they devote their lives to their work with a salary. Therefore, most of them start working at an early age. According to my opinion, these trends have detrimental effects on human beings because they don't have time for relaxation, and also face difficulty in finding jobs for the young generation. Secondly, the youth also lose their concentration from their studies although it is beneficial for them as they gain experience it ruins their studies schedule. I will discuss this in detail in the essay below.

Some people believe that children can learn effectively by watching TV and they should be encouraged to watch TV both home and school. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
In modern society, due to the development of technology, the time that children spend watching TV has increased. Some people may have claimed that there are more advantages to learning by watching TV. However, I personally disagree with this statement because many TV contents are less likely to be educational.

Some people believe that unpaid community service should be a compulsory part of high school programmes (for example working for a charity, improving the neighbourhood or teaching sports to younger children). To what extent do you agree or disagree?
It has been suggested that high school students should be involved in unpaid community services as a compulsory part of high school programmes. Most of the colleges are already providing opportunities to gain work experience, however, these are not compulsory. In my opinion, sending students to work in community service is a good idea as it can provide them with many valuable skills.
