Some people believe that it is wrong for professional athletes to compete in the Olympics because their strong financial backing and training give them an unfair advantage over the other athletes. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Some would argue that it is unfair for a high-skilled sportsman to struggle in the Olympic games because their high salary and preparation make their participation dishonest compared with the other competitors. However, in this essay, I would disagree with this opinion because this competition spends among professionals, their pieces of training and money are on the same level. But the Pharmaceuticals and political issues make a difference.

It is true that people, including scientists and tourists, can easily access off-the-beaten-track places like the South Pole these days.

Nowadays animal experiments are widely used to develop new medicines and to test the safety of other products. Some people argue that these experiments should be banned because it is morally wrong to cause animals to suffer, while others are in favour of them because of their benefits to humanity. Can animal experiments be justified? Are there any alternatives?
There is a controversial debate on animal experiments. While it cannot be deniable that essential scientific discoveries are attained by experiments on animals, this phenomenon should be banned because of its inhumanity. This essay is devoted to justifying the view and proposing solutions for this problem.
