Boys and girls should study separately at different schools

Undoubtedly, education plays a crucial role in the existence of the society. Currently the majority of schools are co-educational.

I totally disagree with the statement above. I strongly believe that studying together is extremely necessary for individuals. Firstly, the world is not separated for males and females. In the childhood people tend to be less vulnerable to failures in relations. In consequence at school they learn how to socialise with another sex, which assists them in avoiding social mistakes in the future. Secondly, while studying together pupils may find out some psychological features of another gender. Finally, contradictions between boys and girls motivate both to study harder in order to be better than another sex.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some conservatives claim that productivity and efficiency of getting education will increase, if pupils are taught separately. Psychologists have already proved that boys have natural abilities to technical subjects, while girls are likely to be skilled at mastering humanities. Subsequently, co-educational schools do not have individual approach to students depending on their gender. Moreover, passion and affection seem to distract pupils from studying.

However, I still insist on my opinion. It surely goes without saying that love improves personalities on the ground that they are eager for being better to please a partner. So, they study harder.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should pupils be diminished an opportunity to study together. If schools were not co-educational, the majority of people would not be able to communicate with another gender.

A man that does not know the history of his/her country is like a leaf that is not aware of being a part of a tree

It is common knowledge that a person is a citizen of that country where s/he was born. Under some circumstances one can change a citizenship or have a double one. Undoubtedly, a person considers himself/herself to be a citizen of that country where his/her heart is.

I totally agree with the statement above that a person ought not to be ignorant of the history of his/her motherland. Firstly, if a resident has no knowledge of the history of his/her native country, s/he will not take part in historic festivals, where people become mentally united. Secondly, being unaware of the events of the past, a citizen cannot keep up a conservation with compatriots. Finally, griefs, sorrows and failures have always been consolidating nations. If a person has no idea about mistakes of his/her ancestors, s/he does not have any patriotic feelings.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some people claim that it is senseless to learn the history of the motherland. Present is much more significant that the past. Moreover, interactions with other citizens may bring a person a feeling of felicity and patriotism.

However, I still insist on my opinion. It is usually said that history repeats itself. In consequence a citizen ought to be good at national history in order to prevent his/her motherland from the same disastrous mistakes in the future.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should a person ignore the life of his/her ancestors. If the humanity did not rely on the history, the world would turn into chaos.

Having a computer at home will allow children to have better education

Undoubtedly, education plays a vital role in the fortune of a personality, that is why teenagers are made to study hard. It will not be an exaggeration to claim that the majority of parents do their best to provide their offsprings with everything they need for getting education, for instance, personal computer.

I totally agree with the statement above that installing a computer improves productivity of studying. Firstly, computers are considered to have connection to the Internet. In subsequence, it is thought to give a user an access to dozens of virtual libraries, where new knowledge may be obtained. Secondly, a system of online tutoring has already been developed. So, students from remote and rural areas may have lessons with renowned and qualificated teachers. Finally, films and books in the original may be downloaded from the Net, with the help of which foreign language skills can be mastered.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some conservators claim that a computer will lessen a wish to learn as there are a lot of things to be distracted by. For instance, some pupils become addicted to playing computer games and stop doing homework. Moreover, students seem to be devoured with interacting and communicating with peers via social networks.

However, I still insist on my opinion. Time spent on playing computer games can be limited by parents with the help of computer settings. So, a pupil has more time on studying.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should parents ignore installing a computer. If everything is controlled by adults, the process of getting education becomes more efficient.

Billions of dollars are spent on space exploration projects annually. Some people believe that this money should be used to solve problems on Earth

It will not be an exaggeration to claim that in the epoch of technologies a lot of money is allocated to exploring the space, while the humanity is still facing an innumerable host of social and economic problems.

I totally agree with the statement above that before travelling to other planets all problems on your own one should be solved. Firstly, millions of residents tend to live below the poverty line. Some money ought to be spent to decrease the number of people in need. Secondly, currently there are a lot of endangered animals. Some funds should be sponsored to create necessary conditions to increase the population of such animals. Finally, there is still a lot of undiscovered on the Earth, for instance, medicine for AIDS, HIV, cancer and other illnesses.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some people claim that space explorations should be sponsored as much as possible. Actually, the humanity is facing some environmental problems which may result in need of moving to other planets. Before living in Mars or Saturn people have to explore it attentively. Moreover, curiosity of renowned scientists should also be satisfied.

However, I still insist on my opinion. Unconsciously, if authorities spent enough money for coping with pollution, there would not be a necessity to move to other planets.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should governments ignore needs of people on Earth. Money on space ought to be spent wisely.

(250 words)

The best things in life are free

Undoubtedly, a person is believed to live for something. His/her fortune is considered to be based on some pleasures, interests, achievements and relations.

I totally agree with the statement above that happiness may be obtained without paying anything. Firstly, health cannot be bought with money. To be sound a person should not worry about stuff and should live in harmony with nature. Secondly, an individual feels satisfied, when s/he gains some new information and broadens his/her horizons. In fact, new data may be obtained freely. Finally, life experience, which nurtures wisdom, is gained while coping with difficulties that are not paid for.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some career makers claim that satisfaction and pleasure can only be purchased with money. What brings them felicity is power and mightiness. To become influential, they have to earn great sums of money. Besides, luxurious things, such as cars, apartments, jewellery, are also thought to be the main goals to achieve.

However, I still insist on my opinion. In fact, luxuries do not make their owner feel that someone needs him/her. To become happy, a person should have family and friends who do not envy of his/her success and will support him/her if she gets in trouble.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should a person be focused on earning money. The most wonderful moments cannot be purchased.

Teenagers should be allowed to read whatever books they like

Undoubtedly, reading is not rising in popularity currently. Despite this fact, some adolescents are still keen on skimming some literature, which is thought to be rather inappropriate to them.

I totally disagree with the statement above. I believe that the youngster ought to be forbidden to read some types of literature because such stories tend to influence adolescents^, minds harmfully. Firstly, mentality has been proved to depend on what people are engaged in. Subsequently, teenagers may become mentally-unstable because of violent scenes described in, for example, war stories. Secondly, in some populistic books unhealthy way of life is propagandized. So, teenagers start smoking, drinking alcohol, consuming drugs in order to look cool as it is narrated in such literature. Finally, according to humane ideas teenagers should not be allowed to read about erotic issues.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some liberals claim that teens are to be allowed to read everything they are interested in. In fact, devouring books may be a great emotional and psychological boost to their inquiring minds. Moreover, after reading some stories they may become motivated and inspired, which will improve their productivity and efficiency.

However, I still insist on my opinion. It will not be an exaggeration to claim that teenagers are not experienced enough to limit the impact of inappropriate content. Undoubtedly, adolescents may be boosted by a splendid book, but it might popularize racism, discrimination, sexism. Subsequently, a child may become perilous to interact with.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should parents ignore what their offsprings read, because inappropriate literature may pose threats.

(273 words)

Life in the countryside is not for young people

Actually, people may live in two places currently: in megacities or in villages. Now there is a tendency when the youngster leaves their small native land for cosmopolitan cities.

I totally agree with the statement above that living in rural areas is not suitable for adolescents. Firstly, at this age people ought to get a higher education, which is impossible in some remote areas, because there are no universities at all. Secondly, adolescence is supposed to be the time for entertainment. In consequence, young people usually get bored in villages. Finally, in small towns people’s lives are always discussed there. It may be extremely irritating for adolescents, because they are not experienced enough in not paying much attention to rumours and gossips about themselves.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some people claim that a village is a perfect place for adolescents to reside. In rural areas there is less air pollution. The majority of production may be grown by themselves, which means that there are no antibiotics and pesticides in them. All mentioned above makes young people healthier. Moreover, grandparents need their grandchildren’s help. So, it is a teenager’s duty to assist the elderly.

However, I insist on my opinion. It will not be an exaggeration to claim that the present generation is not strong enough to do activities which were done by our ancestors. The majority of young people will only moan about helping their grandparents.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should the youngster avoid living in megacities, because they are supposed to be more convenient for adolescents to reside in.

(275 words)

The Internet is the biggest evil of our time

Undoubtedly, an innumerable host of inventions have been made recently, which have changed the existence of the humanity profoundly. One of them is the Internet. The majority of people have become accustomed to always using it.

I totally agree with the statement above. I personally believe that the World Wide Web ought to be regarded as the most awful invention, because it tends to do harm to its users. Firstly, surfing the Net is related to looking at the screen, which causes eye strain and vision loss. Secondly, while using technical targets people have become keen on playing computer games, which may result in obesity, because gamers stop moving. Finally, the content published in the Internet is not controlled properly, so it might be dangerous to people’s mental health. All points mentioned above prove how hazardous surfing the Net can be.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some individuals claim the Internet is a blessing for the humanity. Actually, people from rural areas now have access to lectures, books, educational films, which improve their education. Moreover, the current situation in the world, for instance, politics, economics and other latest news may be obtained immediately.

However, I still insist on my opinion. In fact, the main source of income for the majority of websites, both educational and informational ones, is advertisement. To say nothing of distraction, they also make impulsive people purchase unnecessary stuff immediately. The Net raises the society of consumption.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should individuals use the World Wide Web unconsciously, because it has a terrible impact on them.

(274 words)

Good books are only those books that everyone likes and understands

Undoubtedly, reading seems to play a vital role in the existence of the humanity, because It tends to broaden people’s minds and raise the best traits of character. But, in fact, not all literature is so beneficial to book worms.

I totally disagree with the statement above. I believe that the usefulness of a book cannot be estimated by its popularity. Firstly, in different historic epochs various genres were fashionable. So, readers were ashamed to admit that they did not appreciate the book in order not to seem out-dated. Secondly, a book may have a successful promotion, but not a useful content. Finally, the quality of books is revealed by the point if it stands the test of time.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some people claim that if a book id devoured by the majority, it is worth reading. Actually, a host of individuals may not be wrong. Moreover, if a book is senseless, nobody will read it and it will not become popular.

However, I still insist on my opinion. It will not be an exaggerating to assume that now there is a spiritual decline in people’s mentality. So, currently customers’ will is to devour stories as primitive as possible. Undoubtedly, simplicity has never been a proof of quality.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should people regard a book by its popularity. Personal experience is much more valuable than reviews of fashionable journalists.

(248 words)

The potential of music includes healing people

Undoubtedly, music is a kind of art. It is thought to be a universal language, because it may be understood by people of all nations and ages. Besides, music seems to influence people in various aspects.

I totally agree with the statement above. I do believe that music makes listeners healthier and sounder. Firstly, it has already been proved that classical music enables people to release tension and get rid of stress. Secondly, physicians are sure that listening to quiet and soothing songs assists individuals in reducing headaches. Finally, special rhythm of music before going to bed improves the quality of sleep. Subsequently, in the morning a person feels more refreshed and relaxed.

However, there is another point of view on this issue. Some individuals claim that music is not capable of healing them. Actually, rock music tends to sound extremely aggressive and it provokes a feeling of fear and exposure. Moreover, listening to music via headphones makes listeners deaf.

Nevertheless, I still insist on my opinion. Actually, people should listen to music they enjoy. In this case the hormone of happiness is produced and listeners start feeling positive emotions, which improve their mental condition.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should individuals avoid listening to music, because it is extremely beneficial and useful for their health. If the humanity did not listen to music, people would be exhausted and furious.

(238 words)

Risk-takers are more successful in life

Undoubtedly, everybody wants to become successful, because in the majority of cases success is thought to be a synonym to happiness. But, in fact, becoming successful is extremely complicated.

I totally agree with the statement above. I do believe that a person’s success depends on how risky s/he is. Firstly, risk-takers tend to notice all chances, which may help them to succeed. Secondly, such people tend to be not afraid of losing everything, because they are groovy. So, every opportunity is used. Finally, they make decisions faster than more rational people, subsequently, their activity is more productive and efficient.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some people claim that it is impossible for risk-takers to succeed in life. They seem to act and later think. Moreover, their irrational behaviour usually ends in losing everything.

However, I still insist on my opinion. All risk-takers always weigh up pros and cons of their action, which prevents them from making mistakes.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should people avoid being risky, because only in this case it is probable to succeed. If there were not any risk-takers, there would not be any millionaires.

In future robots will replace pets as people’s companions

Undoubtedly, a host of inventions have been made recently, which have changed the existence of the humanity profoundly. Specialists tend to anticipate that in near future machines will totally penetrate our life.

I totally disagree with the statement above. I do believe that pets will never be replaced by atomised machines. Firstly, animals are a part of our ecosystem. If they vanish, nature will destabilise, which will influence our environment badly. Secondly, robots do not look so cute as pets do, subsequently, children will be afraid of machines. Finally, animals seem to feel people’s emotions and act in such a way to encourage a host or, on the contrary, to sympathize. Evidently, robots are not capable of it.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some people claim that in the epoch of technologies they would rather have a robot than a real pet. Actually, hosts will not have to pay for special food, vaccines, clothes and stuff like that. Moreover, if a person becomes exhausted with robot s/he will just turn them off, which cannot be done with real animals.

However, I still insist on my opinion. Actually, a pet is supposed to be a friend of a human being, so it is not an object to save on.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances will people own robots instead of pets, because it is impossible to betray a friend. If people were not keen on keeping animals, now they all would use Tamagotchi.

(255 words)

Collecting is one of the most boring hobbies

Undoubtedly, hobbies play a vital role in the existence of the humanity, because they exist individuals in getting rid of stress and escaping from dull reality. One of the most widespread hobbies has always been collecting something.

I totally agree with the statement above. I do believe that there is no duller passion than collecting things. Firstly, this hobby does not involve communicating with like-minded people, so there is no chance to share ideas, musings on this issue. Secondly, collectors seem to search manically for things, so their lives turn into routine, because they are only focused on collections. Finally, looking for things is extremely time-consuming.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some collectors claim that their hobby is the most exciting, alluring and compelling. Actually, people are satisfied with everything that has already been collected. So, such stuff makes them feel positive emotions. Moreover, in some cases collecting involves travelling from all over the world in order to exchange. Unconsciously, visiting new places is refreshing.

However, I still insist on my opinion. Actually, while travelling collectors tend to be concentrated on their things, but not on sights and places which are worth visiting. They just avoid the beauty of countries where they go to.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should people be passionate about collecting, because it prevents them from admiring the world around them. If all people released tension in collecting, the humanity would become narrow-minded.

(250 words)

Ecotourism is useful for the environmental protection

Actually, the 21^st century is renowned not only for a host of technologies, but also for a variety of ecological problems, which surely have been spawned by the activity of the humanity. In order to prevent their development some measures ought to be taken.

I totally agree with the statement above. I do believe that ecotourism assists the humanity in getting rid of ecological issues. Firstly, if a person is an ecotourist, s/he has to travel by bike or on foot. In this case no harmful gases are released into the atmosphere. Secondly, eco travellers do not destroy natural habitats. Finally, while eco travelling people do not throw away litter, subsequently, no soil erosion is provoked.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some sceptics claim that eco-tourism does not have an impact on improving the ecology and in some cases even makes it worse. In fact, some rural areas are extremely vulnerable to any people’s actions. In order to save them tourists cannot go around there. Besides, eco-tourism is only gaining popularity currently. So, the majority of individuals travel in such a way to seem fashionable.

However, I still insist on my opinion. In fact, nature needs people’s help. Tourists may collect rubbish, plant more trees, which will assist the nature in recovering, despite its vulnerability.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should individuals avoid eco travelling, because our environment suffers from ecological problems. If the society were indifferent to it, the Earth would be impossible to live on.

Background music should be used while students are writing their tests at school

Undoubtedly, music is supposed to be a universal language, because it tends to be understood by people of all nations and ages. That is why, it seems to have penetrated all spheres of our life, for instance, advertisement, education, business and so on.

I totally agree with the statement above. I do believe that at exams students ought to listen to some music. Firstly, it assists people in realising tension and getting rid of stress. Secondly, classical music has been proved to improve efficiency while working or studying. Finally, soothing sounds are likely to make people more concentrated and focused on tasks.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some strict teachers claim that no music can be used during lessons. Actually, it will distract adolescents from tasks. Moreover, there will always be arguments what music should be on.

However, I still insist on my opinion. In fact, because of background music any side noises will not be heard. So, it helps students not to be distracted by whisper, street noises and those students who go out of the classroom.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should people avoid turning on background music while passing a test, because it is really beneficial. If music were used, test results would be much better.

Videogames should be used in class

Undoubtedly, a host of recent inventions have changed the life of the humanity profoundly. As for education, laptops, computers, the World Wide Web seem to be used in every school of developed countries.

I totally agree with the statement above. I do believe that the usefulness of moderate use of videogames is difficult to exaggerate, so students ought to be allowed to play them at school. Firstly, computer games may give a pupil a basic financial education as the game suggests wise expenses with the aim to bring a player’s empire to economic welfare and prosperity. Secondly, there are some educational videogames, where students have to practise maths, foreign languages in order to succeed in it. In consequence, a pupil improves his/her knowledge in a game form. Finally, some shooters assist in relieving stress, so pupils will be less aggressive in relations with each other.

However, there is another opinion in this issue. Some anxious parents assure that there is no more evil and destructive invention in the world, but a computer game. Actually, pupils may become addicted to them, which will cause mental disorders because of violent elements in shooters. Moreover, videogames are supposed to distract adolescents from studying.

Nevertheless, I still insist on my point of view. In fact, if a person is always concentrated on studying, the process becomes less efficient, because a pupil feels fatigue. Videogaming is a great opportunity for him/her to distract from studies, which will boost his/her productivity later.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should tutors prevent students from playing computer games, because it is extremely beneficial.

Humour is the best way to solve conflicts

It will not be an exaggeration to claim that arguments should not be avoided in interaction with people, because their constructive solutions may be extremely beneficial to opponents. Besides, conflicts have to be solved as efficiently as possible.

I totally agree with the statement above. I do believe that there is no more useful and perfect method of conciliating rivals, but jokes. Firstly, humour generates pleasant emotions and prolongs the expectancy of life. Secondly, a joke is a laconic way of expressing musing, so, it takes less time to solve an argument. Finally, friends are supposed to laugh at each other, consequently, humour helps people to stay comrades, but not rivals.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some individuals claim that it is impossible to get rid of a stressful conflict with jokes. Actually, in some cases they may be misunderstood and the opponent does not know how to react to them. It provokes a deterioration of relations. Moreover, frequently they are rather rude.

However, I still insist on my opinion. For some people a joke may sound offensive, because it reveals a grain of bitter truth. Undoubtedly, people should not become furious about it. Jokes are better than satire, they mean no harm.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should people ignore using humorous sketches while having arguments. If jokes were not a useful method of solving problems, some conflicts would last forever.

Summer is the best time for vacations

A need in rest has been proved to be a biological necessity of a person, that is why people are unable to work continuously without any breaks. Holidays are supposed to happen extremely rare, so individuals pay great attention to how their vacations are organised.

I totally agree with the statement above. I do believe that there is no more perfect and ideal time for holidaymaking, but summer. Firstly, having vacation at the seaside and swimming there is possible only in a hot season, which is completely useful for those, who have skin disorders. Secondly, in summer individuals may enjoy fresh fruits, berries and vegetables, which are rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Finally, it takes people less money to travel in summer, because they do not have to spend it on means of transport and accommodation. Extreme adolescents may hitchhike and sleep on beaches or in tents.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some individuals claim that summer season is the worst time to have holidays. Actually, there is a swarm of midges in the air. Moreover, the rays of the Sun may cause skin cancer, which is difficult to cure.

However, I still insist on my opinion. Moderation of being in the Sun is extremely healthy, because the lack of vitamin D, which is produced by the Sun, provokes the development of rickets.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should holidaymakers ignore hanging out in summer, because it is healthy and cheap. If summer were awful to have a vacation, beaches and parks would not be so crowded with tourists.

Social networks are a great way to fight loneliness

Undoubtedly, a host of inventions have changed the existence of the humanity profoundly. Actually, the majority of people have at least one account in a social network currently and users seem to spend more than an hour per day chatting there.

I totally disagree with the statement above. I do believe that social networks do not tend to create a feeling of fellowship with anybody. Firstly, chatting with strangers does not develop communicative skills in real life, that is why a person faces the same problem of getting acquainted with someone in the society. Secondly, while interacting via networks a person physically stays alone, so a sense of being necessary to someone cannot be achieved. Finally, loneliness has been proved to be a permanent feeling. Consequently, it may not be eliminated by infrequent use of social networks.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some psychologists claim that a person does not feel isolated, while communicating with peers in the Internet. Actually, there a user chats with people from all over the world, so one may get a feeling of vigour to the whole planet. Besides, via social networks a shy adolescent shares his/her ideas, musings, emotions without fear of being laughed at.

However, I insist on my opinion. It will not be an exaggeration to claim that bravery in the World Wide Web provokes phobia of interacting with peers in the society.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should individuals be sure that social networking will assist them in solving psychological disorders, because a person’s status in Facebook or Twitter is fiction in reality.

It is impossible to anticipate the developments of the society

Undoubtedly, a host of inventions have been made recently, which have changed the existence of the humanity profoundly. Actually, a way of living and thinking has been fluctuating and this process seems never to stop.

I totally agree with the statement above. I do believe that spending time on foreseeing the future is impractical, because prospective of society’s modification are extremely miscellaneous. Firstly, in this case a person has to be skilled at many sciences from psychology to physics and chemistry, which is, unconsciously, impossible. Secondly, crazy and bizarre ideas of inquiring minds tend to stimulate the world’s development, but they are rather difficult to predict, too. Finally, environment is dependent on natural phenomena, which are not controlled by the humanity.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some self-confident scientists are sure that it does not take a multitude of efforts and a plenty of time to model the future of the society. Actually, history repeats itself. Moreover, judging by inventions and purposes, why they have been invented, it is rather obvious what impact they will have.

However, I still insist on my opinion. It will not be an exaggeration to claim that inventors try to disguise their innovations in order not to become plagiarised, that is why their developments are not disclosed at public, only to the authorities.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances is it possible to model the future of the humanity. If it were achievable, a lot of current social and economic problems would have already been solved.

Practical skills are more important than theory

Undoubtedly, at universities, institutions, colleges students become acquainted with formulas, statistics, information, which will be necessary for them while working. At work they tend to gain some experience, which assists them in becoming professionals.

I totally agree with the statement above. I do believe that the more a person is skilled at something, the more successful s/he is. Firstly, practice develops a better understanding of a subject. Secondly, without practice a worker will not be able to cope with real problems. Finally, it takes less efforts and time to practise rather than cram data and theory. Consequently, practice inspires a worker to become more skilled at his/her occupation.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some people claim that the significance of theoretical knowledge is difficult to exaggerate. Actually, without information a person will not be able to start doing his/her work, because s/he can not do it. Moreover, while learning students do not face any failures in comparison to a real life, that is why theory is thought to motivate a student to know more.

However, I still insist on my opinion. Actually, students are explained some perfect situations to, which seem not to happen in the reality. Subsequently, theoretical knowledge cannot be applied in real situations.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should individuals neglect practice, because it is supposed to be 80 percent of success.

One foreign language is not enough in the contemporary world

Undoubtedly, modern students pay much attention to learning at least one foreign language, because it is thought to improve their career prospective. Moreover, there are also a lot of pupils, who thrive on being skilled at more than two languages.

I totally agree with the statement above. I do believe than bilingualism does not provide a person with prosperous living, because in current society a professional needs to be good at at least three languages. Firstly, profitable businesses are considered to be run as international companies where qualificated specialists from all over the world work. To communicate efficiently employers have to speak at least two foreign languages. Secondly, learning new words and grammar structures improves memory, which is extremely important for people in the epoch of information. Finally, being proficient at foreign languages lets individuals travel more without any barriers.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some conservatives claim that knowing a mother tongue and English is enough. Actually, the English language is spoken all over the world. In addition, if a person is good at two languages, s/he will always find a job as an interpreter, so s/he will always be able to make both ends meet.

However, I insist on my opinion. The society is changing rapidly, which means that in a decade the English language as an international one may be replaced with Chinese, Arabic or Russian. So, knowing English now will not provide a person with the stability in the future.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should people ignore learning the second language, because it may boost their careers.

In the future traditional shops will disappear and all shopping will be online with home delivery

In the epoch of technologies an innumerable host of inventions have already been made, which have changes the existence of the humanity profoundly. For instance, now shopping can be made online without going out of a house.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some claim that the convenience of online purchasing is difficult to exaggerate, so traditional shops will be declining in popularity and in the end vanish. Actually, online shopping enables a person to possess an item fast, which is especially beneficial in the hustle-and-bustle of modern cities. Moreover, a consumer may get some stuff from all over the world, so s/he is offered a wide range of choice.

However, I still insist on my opinion. A buyer is threatened with getting a pig in a poke. In the majority of cases nothing can be done to return money back.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances will the Internet shopping replace a traditional one, because the first one is rather risky.

Good clothes open all doors

Since times immemorial people have been doing their best to look attractive. In today’s world an individual may become more fascinating and enchanting with the help of surgery, cosmetics and brand clothes.

I totally disagree with the statement above. I believe that good traits of character, but not an outfit is a key to successful being. Firstly, a person is usually estimated by his/her attitude to other individuals. If s/he is attentive and polite, s/he is considered to deserve being respected and interacted with. Secondly, most of all a person is admired when s/he is not afraid of difficulties and is ready to break through them. Finally, the majority of people are happy to communicate with intelligent individuals, who are curious to talk to, because they always boost ideas.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some claim that if a person’s clothes leave much to be desired or s/he looks scruffy, nobody wishes to interact with him/her. It can be explained by the fact that clothes seem to make a first impression and, subsequently, attract or, on the contrary, alienate. Moreover, a personality, who takes care of his/her look, is regarded to sort his/her thoughts and strive for the better.

However, I insist on my opinion. I assume that an individual, who cares much of his/her appearance, tends to be egoistic. In consequence, s/he may be ignored, because arrogance is thought to be one of the most awful sins.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should a person do his/her best to look as much fashionable as possible, not caring about his/her inner world.

Labour migration should be banned to avoid terrorism

Currently in the epoch of globalization moving to another country to earn money cannot surprise anybody, because it is an extremely widespread tendency. But, undoubtedly, migration is also linked to other global problems.

I totally agree with the statement above that one of the reasons of terroristic attacks is labour migration which ought to be prohibited to provide the humanity with security. Firstly, migrants tend to leave their homeland, where they have to make both end meet, and move developed countries. There they seem to be ready to do all work, even illegal, to earn as much money as possible. Secondly, people who leave their motherland literally for nothing, having no plan, are desperate, so they are easy to manipulate and be made to act for somebody’s reasons. Finally, migrants seem to be offended by the unfairness that their native countries are less developed than European ones, the USA and that the latter prevent African governments from becoming stable. In consequence, African people are ready to take revenge.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some politicians claim that labour migration must not be banned, as it does not result in terrorism. Actually, it is a violation of rights to prohibit somebody to move. Moreover, migration system is organized carefully, so government servants keep an eye on migrants and their activity.

However, I insist on my opinion, because the majority of migrants try to avoid paying taxes, so they penetrate into the country and work their illegally.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should labour migration be uncontrolled, as it results in terroristic attacks.

Society needs changes in a low system to prevent revolts and riots

It surely goes without saying that currently the society is facing some urgent social problems, which, undoubtedly, ought to be solved. One of them is that citizens do not really understand state politics and consider it to be inefficient, which tends to result in rebels and instability.

I totally agree with the statement above that if a law system is modified, residents will mostly support the authorities and no revolts will strike the stability. Firstly, all rebels tend to be caused by injustice. In subsequence, if citizens become equal by judicial system and no unfair cases occur, riots will not be held. Secondly, the main social issue has always been corruption. If corrupt officials were punished properly, citizens would respect the authorities. Finally, if the rights of citizens are observed, they will have no reason to rebel against the power.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some individuals claim that riots cannot be stopped at all. Actually, they are usually sponsored by the opposition. So, judicial changes will have no impact on them. Moreover, residents tend to blame the government for their faults. They assume that the people ought to be helped by the power in any cases. In consequence, they will always find something to accuse of.

However, I insist on my opinion. If the authorities implement their politics fairly, there will not be any opponents at all. If there are some, they will be expelled by citizens.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should the improvements in the jurisprudence be ignored as it has a profound effect on the fortune of citizens.

The growth of cities is harmful for the environment

Unconditionally, humans^, actions have a great impact on nature. Due to technological progress peoples^, way of life, moralities, relations have modified. But nature laws will never change.

To start with, I totally agree with the statement above that cosmopolitan cities have a terrible influence on nature. Firstly, as the cities are growing, a necessity of cars is increasing. In fact, they release exhaust fumes, which result in air pollution. Secondly, the process of building cities demands some non-renewable resources, for instance, wood, water, precious stone, metal. Consequently, there is a depletion of natural resources. Finally, in capitals population is gaining. The majority of them are throwing litter, which is the reason for soil erosion.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some residents claim that the nature does not seem to be suffering from urbanization. Actually, a host of saplings are being planted in order to make green zones. In addition, currently in megacities recycling programmes tend to be organized, which assists in saving renewable resources.

There again, I insist on my opinion. It will not be an exaggeration to assume that trees are being planted to have some material for producing paper and making rooms for herds of cattle. So, sapling will be cut down within 20 years. Undoubtedly, it leads to deforestation.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should individuals ignore drawbacks of urbanization, because its disastrous effect on our environment is difficult to exaggerate. A number of measures should be taken to make the repercussions less harmful.

Arguments among siblings always lead to a cycle of hatred and violence

Unconditionally, the only people who an individual may rely on, are members of his/her family. We are always apt to live peacefully and to behave politely with our relatives. However, sometimes we have some silly quarrels with them on the subject of stupid stuff.

To start with, I totally disagree with the statement above that quarrels of brothers and sisters usually result in physical struggles. Firstly, if a small kid if offended by his/her sibling, he/she tends to cry and call parents for assistance. Secondly, siblings are considered to be kind to each other, so their conflicts do not result in fighting. Finally, such arguments tend to be facetious. No struggle is necessary to find a constructive solution.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue that the consequence of siblings^, arguments is violence. People claim that teens are psychologically-unstable, that is why they may easily become angry and furious and fight with a brother/sister. Moreover, some infantile people find the only way to prevent quarrels by beating both of them.

There again, I still insist on my opinion. In kindergartens and schools children are always taught to be kind and friendly to everybody, especially to relatives. Actually, there psychologists always reach children how to cope with anger and fury.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should parents be frightened with that fact that their offsprings may have conflicts, because they turn out to be usually solved constructively without violence.

The production and sale of genetically-modified food should be banned

Unconditionally, it is literally impossible to imagine our existence without recent developments. Actually, all of them are aimed at making our life easier. But the question is if technology is a curse or a blessing for mankind.

To start with, I totally disagree with the statement above that genetically-modified products should not be consumed by people. Firstly, as far as I am concerned, natural resources, such as land, water, are not necessary for growing genetically-modified food. Subsequently, making it does not result in depletion of non-renewable resources. Secondly, more products can be produced as no natural recourses are needed. This may solve the problem of starvation in Africa. Finally, because of abundance of products at the market food may be purchased at lower price.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some conservatives claim that GMO products ought to be prohibited. Actually, such food is harmful for health, because it does not contain vitamins and minerals. Moreover, genetically-modified products have not been checked properly by scientists. So, it is perilous to consume such products.

There again, currently a lot of chemicals and pesticides are being used in order to grow vegetables and fruits. Contrary to such plants, such harmful nutrients are not used in the process of making GMO food. So, these products are less dangerous to consume than «natural» one.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should people avoid eating GMO food, because it turns out to be useful.

Filmgoers should rely on reviews when choosing a film to watch

Unconditionally, cinematography plays a vital role in the existence of the humanity. Actually, good films teach us be responsible for our actions, love your parents, take care of them and other significant life lessons. And the question is how filmgoers should find out if a film is breath-taking or dull.

I totally agree with the statement above that before watching a film people have to flick through reviews of both critics and average watchers. Firstly, surveys tend to reveal both strong and weak sides of a film. Secondly, in reviews it is usually said if cast of a film play professionally and naturally. Finally, reviewers tend to narrate the plot, which assists individuals in finding out if the film will suit their preferences.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Son conservatives claim that reviews ought not to be read before watching. Actually, sometimes they contain spoilers. Moreover, now there is a tendency, when reviews are written by bots, consequently, they are senseless and destructive.

However, I still insist on my opinion. Most sites do not want their reputation to become worse. Subsequently, administrators control carefully what is written in reviews and who has written them. In fact, these precautions let watchers avoid reading fake reviews.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should people ignore looking through film reviews, because they tend to be extremely informative and useful. If they were senseless, nobody would write them.

Our world should be impossible without poetry (1)

Unconditionally, poetry seems to be less popular now than it was centuries ago. It will not be an exaggeration to claim that currently it is difficult to find a person, who is obsessed with reading it.

I totally disagree with the statement above that humans would not survive without poems. Firstly, people would not live without electricity, because it is the only opportunity for them to warm up their houses and themselves. Secondly, it is impractical to exist without education, because while studying humans broaden their horizons and self-actualize themselves. Finally, the humanity cannot live without money, because in the majority of cases it is the only way to purchase products, clothes.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some romantics convince that mankind will degrade and finally die out without poetry. Actually, poems give residents a chance to express themselves. Moreover, it is extremely extraordinary to tell your beloved partner that you love him/her in a poetic form.

However, I still insist on my opinion. It goes without saying that there are a lot of kinds of art. So, humans may reveal their feelings, musings with the help of cinematography, sculpture, painting, music. Subsequently, people may originally declare their love without poetry.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should people be sure that they will not survive without poems and compositions. Points mentioned above prove otherwise.

(237 words)

Our world would be impossible without poetry. (2)

Unconditionally, it is literally impossible to imagine the existence of the humanity without art. In fact, it assists individuals in getting rid of stress, becoming more intelligent and determined. One form of art which really expresses people’s feelings is poetry.

I totally agree with the statement above that humans cannot exist properly without poetry. Firstly, learning poems by heart gives people an opportunity to improve their memory. Secondly, poems tend to broaden individuals’ minds and, consequently, develop their imagination and creativity. Finally, with the help of poems we are able to find out distinguishing features of the history of our ancestors and customs and traditions of other nations.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some pragmatic people claim that there are much more significant things than poetry. Such individuals confirm that the humanity will not survive without a computer and the Internet. Actually, having access to the Internet means having access to dozens of libraries, where people may gain knowledge. Besides, computer games also help us to improve concentration and reaction.

However, I still insist on my opinion. It surely goes without saying that computers cannot assist an individual in expressing ideas, feelings, musings, meanwhile poetry may. In fact, one can extraordinarily express his/her love to his/her beloved person with the help of poems even written by other authors, while talking about passion via social networks is considerably boring.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should individuals ignore devouring poems. If there were not any poetry, the world would degrade and become primitive.

Graffiti is an art form that should be respected and admired

Unconditionally, art plays a vital role in the existence of the humanity. A new form of art, which is gaining in popularity, is graffiti.

I totally disagree with the statement above that graffiti ought to be marvelled at. Firstly, this type of art means painting on walls of different public buildings. In fact, painters make harm to property of other residents. Secondly, there are too many graffiti drawings currently, meanwhile the real art appears to be unique. Finally, the majority of graffiti painters do not often have a special education, which proves that they are not real artists.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some adolescents claim that culturally-minded people are to be fascinated and amazed by graffiti. Actually, graffiti painters are extremely talented, that is why even without education they create masterpieces. Moreover, some graffiti makers draw paintings devoted to the theme of patriotism, history and culture. Undoubtedly, aspects mentioned prove that this kind of art deserves respect.

However, I still insist on my point of view. Patriotic, historic and cultural graffiti dominated in megacities. Speaking about suburbs and small towns, there paintings are mostly dedicated to some criminal thigs, such as drugs, alcohol and cigarettes, which of course do not provoke positive feelings.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should people consider graffiti to be a real art, because it has a disastrous impact on person’s mentality. If it ought to be admired, a host of galleries would be graffiti ones.

Women should be forced to change their name when they get married

Unconditionally, it is literally impossible to imagine people’s life without relationships. It will not be an exaggeration to claim that after getting married both grooms and brides have to face some changes. For instance, women are to change their second names.

I totally disagree with the statement above. I believe that females ought to decide themselves whether to change their name or not. Firstly, women appear to have rights to act as they like, if their actions do not make harm to other people. It is said in the Convention of UN on human’s rights. Secondly, men do not have the right to force anybody. In fact, it is also written in the document mentioned above. Finally, making someone do something reveals low moral qualities and low intelligence.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some strict men claim that wives must change their second names despite their wills. Actually, a wife belongs to a husband after getting married to him, that is why she has to accept everything that is demanded. Moreover, this action is a tradition, that has been kept for decades.

However, I still insist on my opinion. Currently people are equal, so a female is an individual, but not a thing. So, she cannot become a property of anybody. In consequence, she is independent enough to choose her second name on her own.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should womankind be forced to change their second names after getting married.

Our grandparents say that their way of life used to be much more secure

Unconditionally, our world is constantly changing. As technology develops, ways of lives, moral qualities of the humanity change too. It surely goes without saying that some preferences and hobbies of our generation seem silly and strange for our grandparents.

I totally agree with the statement above. I strongly believe that the existence of our ancestors was not so perilous as modern lives are. Firstly, with the development of science cars and planes have become faster, which results in a great number of accidents. Secondly, high level of unemployment leads to the increase of crime rate. Actually, there are a lot of offences currently, for instance, mugging, blackmailing, fraud. Finally, the majority of teenagers are keen on extreme sports, such as parachuting, paragliding and diving. Subsequently, there are some cases, when people become disabled or die.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some ancestors claim that living in the 20^th century was much more frightening than living in the twenty first one. Actually, in the previous century the Second World War broke out. Besides, some medicine was not discovered, which caused mass deaths. Some illnesses could not just be cured.

However, I still insist on my opinion. The most significant global problem is terrorism. Terroristic attacks tend to occur unexpectedly, meanwhile during the Second World War civilian population knew about the danger and were ready to repulse the attack.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should people consider the 21^st century be less perilous than the 20^th one, because there are still a lot of dangerous situations, which residents even do not know about.

There is nothing we can do to save the environment

Unconditionally, the humanity has made a lot of harm to the nature. Besides, humans’ health depends on the condition of the environment. Subsequently, some measures have to be taken in order to save future generations from extinction.

I totally disagree with the statement above. I strongly believe that «Better late than never», so the nature can still be saved. Firstly, people should recycle paper to prevent trees from being cut down. Secondly, if we stop dump rivers and lakes with litter, fish and underwater life will not become extinct. Finally, humans may also use ozone-friendly sprays, which will result in remediation of the ozone layer.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some pessimists claim that it is literally impossible to improve the situation, because the planet has been dumped for so long. In fact, a lot of species, for instance a dodo or a Cavian lion, are extinct. They can not be reborn again. Moreover, currently air is extremely polluted. It contains great amounts of carbon dioxide and small concentration of oxygen. Such people are sure that they are unable to make air fresh again.

However, I still insist on my opinion. Scientists have proved that trees are filters that take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen. Subsequently, the only action which people have to undertake is to release less chemicals into the atmosphere, that may be achieved by using less cars.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should people consider helping the nature to be useless, because points mentioned above prove that the environment can become cleaner if necessary actions are undertaken.

Consumers should read books than watch their film versions

It surely goes without saying that first books had been published earlier than first films were produced. Moreover, currently there is a tendency when a movie is made according to a book.

I totally agree with the statement above. I strongly believe that individuals had better read books rather than watch their film versions. Firstly, reading a book assist people in enriching their vocabulary. Secondly, when a reader is concentrated on a book, s/he is considered to remember correct spelling of a multitude of words. Finally, the majority of renowned books were written centuries ago. Consequently, while reading them a person can find out what his/her ancestors’ language was like.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some people claim that books may be thrown away, because films may always be watched. Undoubtedly, it is not time-consuming. Moreover, modern blockbusters seem to be extremely realistic, capturing, while books are just white papers which do not depict actions and are too difficult to concentrate on.

However, I still insist on my opinion. Actually, books are to develop humane imagination, which result in modifying individuals’ mentality. Films have been proved to not provoke brain activity, so, they make people primitive.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should individuals ignore reading books, because the more we read, the more intelligent we become.

People should do sport rather than watch a sporting event on TV

Undoubtedly, sport plays a vital role in the existence of the humanity. Since early childhood people have been involved in it. Besides, currently a host of sport events are broadcast on TV.

I totally agree with the statement above that individuals ought to do physical activity systematically, but not only watch sport broadcasts. Firstly, when a person is keen on sports, s/he develops one’s mental strength and persistence by setting goals and achieving them. Secondly, specialists have already proved that when a person does sports, his/her body releases endorphins, which makes a sportsman feel happy and relieved. Finally, sports tend to develop team spirit.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some lazy people assume than watching a sport event is more enjoyable than doing sports. Actually, when a person is involved in physical activity, s/he is vulnerable to be injured. Moreover, most kinds of sport need some equipment, which somebody cannot afford.

However, I still insist on my opinion. In fact, when a person does sport under supervision of a coach, injuries and traumas can be avoided.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should people ignore being involved in sport, because it is a great opportunity for them to stay happy and healthy.

Hard work can compensate the lack of talent in the process of becoming successful

Since times immemorial individuals have set goals which they try to achieve during their existence. The majority of people have always wondered what is the key of success.

I totally agree with the statement above that the main factor of success is hard work but not natural abilities. Firstly, those people who do not have any special talents are not afraid of failures, while skilled humans seem to be beware of losses. Secondly, some talents may deteriorate if they are not practised regularly. Finally, people deprived of skills tend to be persistent, steady and determined as they have to put a lot of efforts into their activity, so they reach their goals, while talented individuals turn out to be infantile, because they always rely on their skills and luck. Unconditionally, luck is not a permanent state.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some people claim that natural abilities play a more significant role in overcoming hardships than persistent work. Actually, despite of a host of efforts that are put into people’s activities, a work of a talented person is always deeper in research than an activity of unskilled one. It is just an axioma. Moreover, the society considers talent to be a unique feature, so men and women usually adore talented people, by than motivating them.

However, I still insist on my opinion. If an individual devotes all his/her time to mastering his/her skills and achieving goals, s/he tends to be respected by those, who surround one. The society realizes how much s/he works and assists him/her in everything.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should untalented people be frustrated about the lack of natural abilities, because hard work conquers all.

Organized travel is not as interesting as independent travel

Undoubtedly, the importance of travelling is difficult to exaggerate. Actually, currently, there is a great multitude of ways how individuals can explore the world.

I totally agree with the statement above than spontaneous journeys are more intriguing than planned ones. Firstly, when a person wanders, s/he tends to bump into new places and sights, which are not shown on a tourist map. Secondly, while travelling independently tourists need some information, so they have to ask residents for help. Such information reveals some special secrets about the culture, history and cuisine. Finally, while travelling on his/her own s/he does not have to adapt to other members of a tourist group.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some travellers claim that planned journeys seem to be safer and more practical than travelling alone. In fact, if a person is a member of an organized group, s/he will not face any difficulties in booking a hotel or a flight. Moreover, when an individual travels in a group, s/he runs a low risk of being robbed.

However, I still insist on my opinion. While choosing a hotel and a flight via the Net independently, a traveller finds out some features about nation’s habits, ways of life, which assist him/her in getting used to foreigners’ mentality.

In conclusion I would like to stress once more that the more people travel on their own, the more fascinating their journeys are. If a person travels independently, s/he gains better experience.

A teacher should always be strict

Undoubtedly, the importance of studying is difficult to exaggerate. It surely goes without saying that behaviour of a teacher at lessons is extremely significant in students’ efficiency and productivity.

I totally disagree with the statement above. I strongly believe that tutors should be kind and open-hearted. Firstly, strict tutors tend to teach students in an organized and linear way, so, there is no room for developing creativity. Secondly, when a teacher is friendly, a student usually reveals his/her character, so a tutor can find a specific and individual way to develop him/her. Finally, a kind teacher is considered to make a quiet atmosphere at lessons, which unites pupils.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some people assure that tutors ought to be severe. Only in this case a teacher can make pupils concentrate on tasks and not be distracted by other thoughts. Besides, a strict mentor seems to create a competitive atmosphere, which makes students work efficiently.

However, I still insist on my opinion. It will not be an exaggeration to claim that strict masters frighten students. Actually, pupils feel under pressure, subsequently, they do not boost ideas.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that if all mentors were friendly, students would be more mentally-developed. The stricter a teacher is, the more restricted the students’ minds are.

In the digital age museums are still important

Undoubtedly, the importance of culture is difficult to exaggerate. Currently there is a great multitude of sources, where a person can gain information. Museums are the most traditional.

I totally agree with the statement above. I strongly believe that museums are of great significance despite developments in technology. Firstly, special tours are provided. There guides are usually obsessed with their work, so they introduce their material enthusiastically, which captures visitors’ attention. Secondly, in museums people are likely to meet individuals with whom they share common interests. Finally, buildings of many museums are also historical heritage due to their architectural uniqueness.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some people claim than museums are a thing from the past and in the epoch of technology they are useless. Actually, culturally-minded individuals can find out necessary information via the Internet, because many museums have their websites. Besides, buildings of museums seem to be in bad condition because they have not been restored for a long time.

However, I still insist on my opinion. Unconditionally, it is better to see once than to hear one hundred times. So, despite of the Internet people still need to go to museums.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that if there were not any museums, the humanity would lose a spiritual connection with the past. The more exhibitions individuals visit, the more educated they become.

Music is something that distracts people from daily routine

It surely goes without saying that music plays a vital role in the existence of the society. Since times immemorial the humanity has been listening to it.

I totally agree with the statement above. I strongly believe that music assists individuals in escaping from everyday problems. Firstly, music helps listeners to relax and relieve stress. Secondly, songs encourage people to dream a little. Finally, music makes individuals plunge into their inner words and concentrate on their mental energy and meditate.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some people claim that music stimulates them to remember about daily routine. It will not be an exaggeration to claim that the society tends to listen to music all the time, so, while having problems, people do it. Afterwards, while they listen to the same music, they remember about previous difficulties.

However, I still insist on my opinion. Actually, popular songs are dynamic, so they are motivational. In fact, when a person listens to is, s/he can remember about circumstances which they had to overcome, but music makes them feel determined and self-confident. So, individuals do not pay much attention to the previous problems.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should people ignore listening to music, because it is a great way to escape from dull reality.

Russian is easier to learn than English

Undoubtedly, learning foreign languages is of a vital necessity currently. It surely goes without saying that they differ from each other by grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation. So, some of them are extremely difficult to master.

I totally disagree with the statement above. I strongly believe that it takes a person more efforts and time to upgrade Russian than brush up the English language. Firstly, the difficulty of Russian grammar is impossible to exaggerate. Actually, in comparison to English verbs, Russian ones have conjugations. As for nouns, they must be inclined, meanwhile adjectives have their cases and genders. Secondly, a lot of Russian words are formed with the help of one origin, but, in fact, all of them have the same translation in English. Finally, some Russian sounds cannot be pronounced correctly by foreigners.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some linguists claim that learning English is much more difficult than practising Russian. Currently a great multitude of words are borrowed from English, such as «a distributor», «a computer», «a retailer» and many others. Moreover, the English language is abundant with idioms which are impossible to remember.

However, I still insist on my opinion. It will not be an exaggeration to claim that the Russian language has also a variety of idioms which are used in everyday life. Without knowing them a foreigner will not be able to socialize in Russian society successfully.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should Russian people ignore mastering the English language, because it is much easier than their native one.

High school students should study only the subjects they choose

Undoubtedly, education plays a vital role in the life of modern students. The older they are, the more subjects they have to study.

I totally agree with the statement above. I strongly believe that it is much more efficient for students to practise only these skills which they will need in the future. Firstly, a variety of subjects are unnecessary for students and they get bored with them. So, they study badly. Secondly, in the end of a term teenagers have to pass a host of exams even of unnecessary sciences which is extremely stressful. Finally, learning extra subjects is a waste of time, because students will not practise them in the future. Consequently, undergraduates will forget some material immediately.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some individuals assume that students should be taught a variety of sciences at high school. Actually, they broaden peoples’ minds. Moreover, a lot of information seems to improve teenagers’ memory and develop their creativity.

However, I still insist on my opinion. It will not be an exaggeration to claim that a person can not be skilled at everything. When s/he has to cope with a multitude of subjects, s/he is usually bad at all of them, even at those, which are necessary for them as they do not have enough time to practise them.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should undergraduates be overloaded with unnecessary knowledge. If students had an opportunity to practise only their subjects, there would be more qualified specialists now.

School classmates make the best friends

Undoubtedly, friendship appears to be the most vital and significant role in the existence of everybody. Actually, it is extremely complicated to find a true friend.

I totally agree with the statement above. I strongly believe that the most loyal and dedicated friends can be made only at school. Firstly, classmates have known each other for so long, so, they have already accustomed to bad habits of each other. Secondly, schoolmates have overcome together a lot of troubles, from bad marks and arguments with parents. Finally, misfortune is considered to unite. As for teenagers’ one, it is a strict teacher.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some people claim that school is not a perfect place to make friends with whom friendship will last forever. Kids and adolescents are obliged to spend approximately half of their day at school. So, teenagers do not have enough time for making comrades out of school. Besides, having spent a couple of years together, individuals are used to each other. It is like a habit.

However, I still insist on my opinion. Fellows at school experience some confusing moments such as the first love, the first party, the first betrayal. Actually, they socialize together. This fascinating and awe-inspiring moments unite friends and cherish forever.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that classmates may become best friends. The more time they spend together, the more united they become.

The most important thing in life is family

Undoubtedly, individuals ought to have a sense of life, which will stimulate their productivity and efficiency. Without a purpose, a person’s life will turn into a senseless existence.

To start with, I totally agree with the statement above. I strongly believe that a happy family tends to be the only aspect which is necessary to have. Firstly, a person will never become betrayed by a true family. Secondly, relatives make an individual develop himself/herself. S/he would rather do some helpful things than disappoint members of his/her family. Finally, relatives turn out to be the only people who are not envious of person’s achievements and success.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some careermakers claim that a family should not be strived to. Money is suggested to be the key to all cheerful and fascinating moments of life. With it a person is influential and mighty. Besides, there are some selfish people, who are interested only in themselves and even avoid being in the society. So, a family is stuff for them.

However, I still insist on my opinion. In the worst life situations, a person is supported only by his/her family, but not money. True relations make humans happy. So, introverts will be fed up with their loneliness in the end of their lives. As it is said: «A person needs a person».

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should people ignore a family. If relations did not exist, the humanity would become miserable and stressed-out.

The most important thing in life is health

It is common knowledge that people are dependent on their health. So, the majority of them do their best to improve it or just not make harm to it.

I totally agree with the statement above that health must be a top priority to a person. Firstly, if s/he pays much attention to his/her health, s/he endures his/her life expectancy. Secondly, health enables an individual to look attractive. Undoubtedly, s/he is extremely satisfied with being admired at. Finally, healthy people do not seem to be exhausted, stressed-out and frustrated. Inspiring humans are rather pleasant to communicate with. So, health assists people in developing healthy relationships with family and friends.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some yuppies assure that a great amount of time should not be spent on caring about health. They assume that all efforts must be striven to promotion in order to satisfy ego. Besides, what a person ought to be concerned about is money which s/he is paid to.

However, I still insist on my opinion. It will not be an exaggeration to claim that people’s motivation, inspiration, mental power are dependent on their health. Without it a person is unable to work efficiently.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should people ignore taking care of their health. If the humanity were irresponsible about it, the life expectancy would be shorter.

Extreme sports help to build character

It is common knowledge that people go in for sports for different reasons. Some are eager to keep fit, while others take up sports in order to release tension. Besides, there are some brave individuals, who go in for extreme sports.

I totally agree with the statement above that challenging sports are a great opportunity for individuals to become stronger personalities. Firstly, extreme activities are considered to teach sportsmen that there is nothing that is impossible to cope with. So, athletes seem to become more determined and persistent while overcoming difficulties. Secondly, doing challenging sports athletes their muscles. As it is usually said: a sound mind in a sound body. Subsequently, athletes become more conscious and even tempered. Finally, extreme sports are expected to be perilous and hazardous. A person has to pay much attention to his/her equipment, in consequence s/he is taught to be responsible.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some scaremongers assume that challenging activities have no beneficial influence on humans’ minds. Being rather dangerous, such sports make athletes feel depressed and frustrated, which results in mental diseases. Besides, an athlete who has taken up extreme activities may be too proud of his/her achievements, which makes him/her boastful, selfish and ill-mannered.

However, I insist on my opinion. Extreme sports are a challenge for an individual. In fact, breaking through stress makes him/her determined and self-confident.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should people ignore going in for extreme sports, because such activities are extremely beneficial for their minds. More individuals are involved in challenging sports, stronger and mightier they are.

If there is a computer at home children will waste much of their time on videogames and social networking

It is common knowledge that because of technological breakthrough many innovations are available to everyone currently. For instance, a computer is used literally in every family now.

I totally agree with the statement above. I strongly believe that adolescents would rather surf the Internet than do their homework. Firstly, teenagers are usually attracted by something new and extraordinary. Undoubtedly, virtual reality is much more capturing than dull studies. Secondly, social networks enable teens to interact with their peers and chat about everything. Gossips turn out to be much more fascinating that history classes. Finally, videogames are a marvellous source of entertainment which assists adolescents in releasing tension and escaping from daily routine.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some loyal parents claim that teenagers had better hang out with friends or go in for sports than clue to the screen of the computer. It will not be an exaggeration to assume that socializing is a key activity for adolescents. Besides, a success in sports brings more satisfaction and felicity than online chatting.

However, I still insist on my opinion. Teens have a tendency to be involved into the virtual reality. Many of them turn into introverts, that is why they are dependent on their devices, where they enjoy triumph and victory, for example in computer games.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances will adolescents ignore a computer. Unfortunately, they prefer to be challenged by shooters, strategies than to be concerned about real life.

Introduction of strict rules at schools will motivate pupils to learn more

Undoubtedly, education plays a vital role in the existence of the humanity, that is why since early childhood offsprings are made to go to kindergartens, schools and study hard. But some are rebellious enough to ignore education.

I totally agree with the statement above that pupils’ productivity and efficiency will increase, if strict rules are introduced. Firstly, lack of compliance implies sanctions. In fact, nobody is eager to be shamefully shouted at in front of mates. Secondly, strict rules make teenagers realize that they are in the society. Actually, adolescents feel conscious and responsible, so work harder. Finally, in some schools a pupil may be expelled because of underachievement. But teenagers do not want to make their parents miserable, so the first do their best not to be kicked out of school.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some rebels claim that restrictions will only provoke misbehaviour of troubled teenagers. They tend to show a protest to something by breaking the rules. In addition, bending the restrictions gives adolescents an opportunity to show off among peers. In consequence, the rules will not be followed and efficiency may even decrease.

However, I still on my opinion. Classmates will not really appreciate if someone is always breaking rules, because all teachers get distracted by his/her and spend lesson time on shouting at him/her. Subsequently, they are not satisfied with the fact that their knowledge and precious time is stolen. So, they will bully the loser.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should schools ignore introducing the rules, because they beneficially influence students’ process of studying.

Joining criminal groups is provoked by social instability

Undoubtedly, the humanity is facing many social problems, which are closely related to each other. Two of the most urgent and biggest issues are the volatility of the society and crimes.

I totally agree with the statement above that flourishing of criminal gangs is the result of social insecurity. Firstly, crime enables people to keep both ends meet. Some join gangs to earn money fast. Secondly, the majority of parents are busy with work to provide their children with all necessities. In consequence, offsprings get out of their control and start committing crime inspired by hardened criminals. Finally, there is a fall in morality, so socially-unstable adolescents are not afraid of doing harm to the society.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some claim that people join criminal groups relying on other reasons. Actually, it is a great opportunity to show off and become respected in the community. Besides, some are not qualified enough to get a job, because they are lazy and undetermined. So, they earn money illegally.

However, I still insist on my opinion. The level of unemployment is rising every now and then. It may be explained by the fact that employees, who are eager to avoid taxes and lessen expenses, have to operate illegally, contributing to the underground economy. This kind of wish is provoked by the fear of losing money and becoming poor in the epoch of instability.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that the more unstable the society is, the more crime thrives it has.

Misunderstanding with peers often results in psychological stress and unpredictable consequences

Undoubtedly, life in the society implies interacting and communicating with people around you. But in some cases, a personality may not be understood by others.

I totally agree with the statement above that miscommunication has a profoundly negative impact on people’s mental condition. Firstly, misunderstanding makes teenagers be afraid of expressing their own ideas, so they have to act as the society has decided. Secondly, bullied people beware of trusting somebody, so in the future they tend to be lonely. Finally, psychological traumas caused in childhood are difficult to cure for the vulnerability of children’s psychology. So, in the adulthood nothing can be made to cope with them.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some claim that beneficial influence of miscommunication on people’s mind cannot be exaggerated. Miscommunication often provokes tears. So, since early childhood a person is taught how to control his/her emotions at public. In addition, s/he becomes less vulnerable to insults and bulling.

However, I still insist on my opinion. If a child does not take his/her emotions out, mental disorganization tends to accumulate. In the future they may turn into inability to live in the society.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should conflicts be ignored. They are harmful to values of a person.

A person who is fluent in a foreign language can easily teach it.

Undoubtedly, the importance of being skilled at at least one foreign language is difficult to exaggerate, that is why people seem to do their best to learn it. They enter different courses, hire tutors, while others, having mastered their foreign language skills, offer their service.

I totally disagree with the statement above. I believe that being good at something does not let a person explain it to other individuals. Firstly, one has to get some pedagogical education in order to find out how different kinds of material should be explained to. Secondly, qualified teachers realize how to make friendly atmosphere while teaching and how to interest students. Finally, amateurs are not experienced enough to plan their lessons efficiently. All mentioned above means that professional teachers tend to be much more productive and effective.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some people claim that having mastered his/her foreign language skills, a person may teach it without any difficulties. Actually, such teachers may reveal their own methods in practising languages. Moreover, if a person is efficient in something, if s/he is good at grammar and skilled at lexis, s/he can easily explain such aspects to other, because s/he understands them.

However, I still insist on my opinion. It surely goes without saying that a student needs an individual approach. So, there is no method that is beneficial to everybody. Only teachers know how to find it.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should a person do some work unprofessionally. Without special education, one can not teach somebody a foreign language.

Public libraries are becoming less popular and they will soon disappear

Undoubtedly, reading profoundly effects people’s minds. Few decades ago the only source of getting books was libraries. But now as an innumerable host of inventions have been made libraries are declining in popularity.

I totally disagree with the statement above. I do believe that under no circumstances will libraries become closed, because they will always be attended by book worms. Firstly, for some readers libraries are a source of inspiration and motivation, because they are full of determined, persistent and reflecting learners. Secondly, at such places book worms can make new acquaintances with people with the same hobbies, interests and preferences. Finally, some books are rather expensive, especially for students, so they have to go to libraries. All aspects mentioned above prove that libraries will always be full of visitors.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some individuals claim that there is no more necessity in libraries, so they will soon be closed. Actually, E-books are thought to be much more convenient to use, so purchasing them prevents a person from going to a library. Moreover, now all books are available, so a reader may purchase it and it will stay his/her property forever. There is no need in returning it.

However, I insist on my opinion. It surely goes without saying that there are some rare books, which are difficult to find. But libraries do strive on possessing them, so a person may read it without any complications.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that libraries will be closed, if there is nobody to visit them. But reasons mentioned above indicate that libraries will always be attended.

A person who is fluent in a foreign language can easily work as an interpreter

Undoubtedly, knowing at least one foreign language is thought to be essential for a person, who has a craving for achieving a set of goals. This can be explained by the fact that being bilingual seems to open all doors and be a key to success.

I totally agree with the statement above that being skilled at a foreign language one may become an interpreter without any difficulties. Firstly, those, who are good at languages, have precise pronunciation, so their speech will be understood. Secondly, bilingual people are good at their mother tongue and another language. In subsequence, they may interpret from their native language to a foreign one or conversely. Finally, bilingual individuals may easily pass some language international exams, which will prove their knowledge and stand them out in a crowd of other interpreters.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some people claim that if one is skilled at any language, s/he will not surely be successful. Actually, being an interpreter demands fast reaction and flexible mind to reveal the sense of reference. Moreover, interpreters are mostly hired in some economic and governmental fields, so an employee has to know some terms and understand what s/he talks about. Consequently, a person ought to excel in this field and get some proper education.

However, I insist on my opinion. Unconsciously, reaction and concentration may be improved by training. So, practice makes perfect.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should a person be afraid of working as an interpreter, if s/he does not have any education, but knows a language well.

It is always best to wear a business suit when you have an interview for a job

Undoubtedly, looking for a job is extremely difficult and significant process in the existence of residents, because an occupation has a great impact on people’s wealth, health and mood. Moreover, humans are usually afraid of having an interview for a job. The problem is what clothes employers should wear to get this job.

I totally agree with the statement above that if a person is eager to find a job he has to put on an official suit for an interview. Firstly, when an employer wears a business suit he seems to be accurate and punctual. Certainly, punctuality attracts employers. Secondly, such person appears to be intelligent and illiterate. Unconditionally, educated humans are necessary for a company. Finally, people who wear business suits seem to have high moral qualities. They are usually patient, determined, persistent and motivated. These qualities mean that it is easy to interact with him/her at job.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some adolescents claim that it is unnecessary to wear official suits when an employer has an interview. They say that employers firstly take into consideration education of a person, his/her experience. Moreover, manners and communicative skills seem to be looked for by employers.

However, I insist on my opinion. There is even a proverb: «You are judged by appearances at first but by your mind later on». So, an employee has to wear a business suit to make the first impression.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should individuals ignore what to wear at job interviews, because an employer firstly notices your appearance but later only your education.

The clothes people wear influence their behaviour

Since times immemorial people have been wearing clothes in order to warm themselves and certainly because of morality. Besides, clothes have always been a way to express oneself and to show off.

I totally disagree with the statement above that there is a connection between what people wear and how they behave. Firstly, a human psychological type is determined by nature. Secondly, mood seems to control person’s behaviour. Finally, the way an individual communicates depends on his/her attitude to these people. For instance, if friends have has an argument with each other, their relationship will be terrible.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some psychologists claim that clothes have been proved to effect peoples’ actions. Those who wear bright and colourful clothes are inspired to show off and laugh louder. On the contrary, those individuals, who have put on some business suits, behave in more peaceful and reserved manner.

However, I still insist on my opinion. I do believe that people’s views on this theme is stereotyped. If they see a person in a suit, they consider him/her to be successful and intelligent, while an individual in bright outfit may be supposed to be a boaster. Unfortunately, in the majority of cases the society, but not an individual determines his/her behaviour.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should people analyse a person’s character, manners, moral qualities by clothes s/he wears, because these traits are not expressed in outfit.

A person should never make decisions alone

Since times immemorial human beings have always faced various difficulties concerning their health, studies, family, socialization and existence in general. So, in order to overcome such obstacles people have to decide how to behave and what exactly they should do. Actually, some humans prefer making decisions on their own, meanwhile another ones have got used to undertaking problems with somebody.

I totally disagree with the statement above that a human is not advised to solve tasks without anybody. Firstly, when one is alone, it is easier to concentrate on a problem, because nobody interrupts his/her thoughts and distracts him/her from the work. Secondly, taking into consideration all opinions, it is more complicated to make a decision that will suit all preferences. Finally, working in the company means that one of the members may wrongly be blamed for offers and activities.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some people state that opinions of one’s partners will broaden one’s horizon and assist in looking at the difficulty in another way. Moreover, friendly individuals can help somebody in various ways, for instance with money, with a piece of advice, with their influence on somebody. Subsequently, one will, undoubtedly, undertake an obstacle.

However, I insist on my opinion, one should not rely on other people’s counsels, because currently most individuals are envious of somebody’s success, that is why, their advice will negatively influence one’s existence and in the end, one will have to solve much more problems.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should people trust other humans and act as the latter advise.

The modern man could not survive in the jungle

To start with, since times immemorial humans have been developing themselves and the world around them. Actually, all innovations are considered to make people’s existence easier. Moreover, all inventions appear to increase life expectancy of the humanity.

I totally agree with the statement above that contemporary residents will die in the woods. Firstly, there is no clean water in the jungle, so it is a probability to become poisoned. Secondly, modern humans are not accustomed to high temperatures, that is why they may die from sunstroke. Finally, there are a lot of poisonous insects, plants, reptiles, for instance snakes, mosquitoes and so on. Undoubtedly, consuming them will result in disfunction or even death.

However, there is another point of view on this issue. Some people state that it is possible for them to live in the jungle. In fact, tents may be set up and no animals will hurt you. Moreover, humans can kill animals and afterwards eat them.

Nevertheless, I still insist on my opinion. As for tents, they can be easily destroyed by monkeys, elephants, tigers. Consequently, there is no protection from wild animals in the jungle. In addition, there is no special equipment in the jungle that lets people keep killed animals properly. Dead animals can become rapidly rot and poisonous.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should humans live in the jungle, because it may cost them their life.

It is difficult to understand jokes from other countries

To start with, there are approximately 250 countries in the world now. Undoubtedly, all countries differ from each other and have a lot of specific peculiarities.

I totally agree with the statement above that jokes of other peoples are virtually impossible to reflect over. Firstly, various countries have different cultures, to be exact customs and traditions. So, lack of knowledge of distinguishing features of national holidays will not let us understand their jokes. Secondly, some jokes concern historical events of a definite country, which are unknown for residents of other countries. Finally, different nations have different mentality. Subsequently, a joke, which seems ridiculous and funny for some nations, may seem offensive for the other ones.

However, there is another opinion on this issue. Some people claim that jokes from other nations may be easily understood. In fact, with the help of dictionaries humans can easily interpret a joke from a foreign language to their native one and, consequently, understand it. In addition, currently most people have access to dozens of libraries, so they can easily find out the information about history and culture of other countries.

Nevertheless, I still insist on my point of view that foreign jokes are complicated to laugh at. In different languages there is a diverse variety of idioms and phrasal verbs, which appear to have different meanings. Moreover, books do not reflect the nation’s attitude towards historical events and national holidays. But most jokes are unquestionably based on peoples’ preferences and opinions.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances jokes from other countries may be understood due to different culture, history, mentality and languages.

It is better to go shopping with friends

To start with, shopping plays a vital role in the existence of the humanity. It assists individuals in getting food, clothes, relieving stress and escaping from everyday routine.

I totally disagree with the statement above. Firstly, purchasing underwear clothes should be done only by ourselves because this stuff concerns our private life. Secondly, while shopping it is extremely complicated to make plan which will suit all preferences, foe example, somebody has to buy products, another person wants to purchase clothes, meanwhile the third one is extremely exhausted and is eager to go home. Finally, when a person does not have enough money to spend on something, s/he feels extremely confused and downcast among friends.

Nevertheless, there is another point of view on this issue. Some people claim that going shopping with friends is better than doing the shopping alone. Actually, friends may advise you what piece of clothes becomes you the most. Moreover, shopping with them is more cheerful, because you can express your feelings and laugh with them.

However, I still insist on my opinion. Unfortunately, currently a lot of people are envious of their friends, that is why they can advise you to purchase both expensive and vulgar clothes. In addition, discussions and jokes can be distracting and a person can easily forget what s/he has to purchase.

In conclusion, I would like to stress once more that under no circumstances should people go shopping with friends, because it is less efficient and productive that doing the shopping alone.
