The utilization of animals as commodities has sparked a heated argument between those who believe that it is in our nature to make the most usage out of it no matter how the process may look like and those who believe certain standards should be imposed when it comes to it. I would say that the latter provides the best argument considering the fact that as a human it is our moral responsibility to encourage ethical practice.

Some people believe that university students should be required to attend classes. Others believe that going to classes should be optional for students. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion. Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.
Few people opine that students pursuing higher education must definitely be present for classes, while others think that it should be an individual choice, this can be due to the fact that university students are mature enough to take their own decision, however, I agree with the former idea as the necessary skill can only be gained by attending classes.
