Some university students want to learn about other subjects in addition to their main subjects. Others believe it is more important to give all their time and attention to studying for a qualification. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
Some students think it’s important to study other subjects at university apart from their main subject. Others believe students should only focus on one area. In this essay, I will argue that learning other subjects alongside our main one is very important.

Some people believe that it is best to accept a bad situation, such as an unsatisfactory job or shortage of money, Others argue that it is better to try and improve such situations. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
In modern society, parts of the population believe that accepting a bad situation such as a lack of money or a displeasing job is a wise choice, while others think that effort should be made to make a difference. From my perspective, people need to try to make the situation brighter.

Some people believe that unpaid community service should be a compulsory part of high school programs (for example, working for a charity, improving the neighborhood or teaching sports to younger children). To what extent do you agree or disagree?
In today's world, there is an ongoing debate about whether unpaid community service should be a mandatory component of high school education. While some argue that this practice can be burdensome for students, I strongly believe that integrating community service into the high school curriculum is essential for both the personal development of students and the betterment of society.

Some people think that sports is very important for society. Others, however, argue that it is nothing more than a leisure activity. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion
Some believe that sports play a crucial role in uniting communities, while others argue that they are merely a source of entertainment and an unnecessary financial burden. Although professional sports require significant funding, I believe their positive impact on social cohesion and community pride outweighs the costs.
