- When students study a foreign language, they should also study the culture and lifestyles of the people who speak the language. Do you agree or disagree?
- Today a large number of students /are learning a foreign language at school.
- But in the meantime, whether students should learn the culture and lifestyle of those who speak the language /has become a highly debatable issue.
- Speaking for myself, I think students should learn both language and culture.
- Language and culture /must be learned /at the same time /due to the reasons below.
- First of all, language and culture /are intertwined.
- There is ample evidence suggesting that learning a language /without knowing its culture is misleading, which means a language /is backed up by its culture.
- The second reason /is learning culture makes learning language more interesting.
- As we know, studying a foreign language /is not an easy task; hence it is necessary to incorporate the cultural part in the process /so that learning becomes more stimulating.
- A third point /I would like to make in support of this finding /is arousing the interest in the culture is the key to long-term learning.
- This is best illustrated with the example of bilingual people /who spend lots of time exploring the foreign language /while discovering new understanding of the culture.
- On the other hand, it is worth pointing out that there are also arguments supporting the opinion that learning culture /is a distraction in terms of foreign language education.
- After all, foreign language education /is more about learning the language; thus, spending too much time studying the culture /may make the learning lose its focus.
- Despite this, an apparent problem with this opinion /is without understanding its culture, a lot of language points do not make sense /because sometimes learning the culture is the pre-requisite of mastering the language.
- Consequently, we should not overlook the importance of learning its culture.
- For my part, after considering the arguments above, I feel that learning both language and culture /is the best way in this aspect.
- When students study a foreign language, they should also study the culture and lifestyles of the people who speak the language. Do you agree or disagree?

- Today, more and more parents depend on their children's grandparents for childcare. Do you think this is a positive or negative trend?
- At present, an increasing number of parents rely on their children's grandparents for childcare.
- In my view, this is a negative trend.
- It is obvious that depending on children's grandparents for childcare /bring about a host of issues.
- First and most importantly, the relationship between parents and children /is the most important relationship in the family.
- Indisputably, the love between parents and children /is the only unconditional love on the planet; therefore, if parents do not spend enough time /with their children, it is harmful for children's wellbeing and development.
- Another problem is grandparents are generally older, which means they probably do not have enough energy to look after very young children very well.
- It is true that childcare /is an exhausting job /which does not really suit senior citizens.
- In addition, it is unfair for grandparents to take care of their children's children /because elderly people have the right to enjoy life.
- It is obvious that childcare /is probably more than a full-time job /which requires a lot of effort and time - that is to say, grandparents who have retired /cannot savour their retirement once they have decided to look after young children.
- Certainly, I would acknowledge that not every couple /have the financial ability or the time to look after their children by themselves.
- This is due to the fact that living in modern society /is stressful /in terms of work and lifestyle.
- Having said this, however, parents /should still clarify what is more important to them - they need to know /how to priorities their life and strengthen their family ties.
- Therefore, overall I would argue that grandparents /would be ill - advised /to assume the responsibility for childcare.
- It would be wise for parents to look after their own children, which, I firmly believe, is in the best interest /of all the parties involved.
- Today, more and more parents depend on their children's grandparents for childcare. Do you think this is a positive or negative trend?

- Public concern has arisen about whether the government /should provide funding for arts or spend money /on public health and education.
- I tend to believe that the government /should allocate more financial resources /to public health and education.
- Public health and education surely /require more government funding /for the following reasons.
- The primary reason /we have to take into consideration /is that public health and education /are the pre-requisite of a healthy society.
- It is generally believed that looking after public health and education dramatically reduces the crime rate in the society.
- Apart from that, public health and education /are needed by most people.
- It is widely acknowledged that more people /rely on government funding in terms of public health and education; as a consequence, the needs of the majority /must be catered for first.
- More importantly, without public health and education, arts /will not have any foundation to be appreciated.
- In other words, nobody feels in the mood for arts /if their needs for public health and education cannot be met.
- I concede that arts play an important role in our life.
- Despite that, the government must prioritise areas that require funding.
- It is commonly accepted that public health and education /require more funding than arts.
- On balance, I would assert that the government would be well - advised to spend more money on public health and education /so that the world can become a better place.

- Some people think that for individuals, planning for the future is a waste of time. It is more important for individuals to focus on the present. Do you agree or disagree?
- Concerning the issue of whether individuals /should plan for the future /or focus on the present, I believe that individuals definitely /must plan for the future due to the following reasons.
- Planning for the future has a wealth of benefits.
- To start off with, a future-oriented person prossesses more clear objectives and incentives.
- It is a well-known fact that individuals /who have goals know what they want, thereby having more certainty in life.
- The second benefit /is planning for the future motivates the individual.
- As a matter of fact, most people's motivation comes from their vision.
- Above all, planning for the future /makes a person's development more sustainable.
- Indeed, without a future plan, even successful people /may feel disoriented and cannot understand /why they want to be successful; as a result, they may not be able to enjoy their success.
- I recognise that focusing on the present can reduce distractions and temptations.
- This is reasonable to the extent that focusing on the present makes a person more organised.
- However, having said this, planning for the future is still not a waste of time because lack of future plans might result in irresponsible and unhealthy lifestyles.
- In conclusion, I would argue that designing a future plan /is much more important than focusing on the present.
- Accordingly, it would be generally advisable for individuals to plan for their future first.
- Some people think that for individuals, planning for the future is a waste of time. It is more important for individuals to focus on the present. Do you agree or disagree?

- Some people think distance-learning can replace schools. Do you agree?
- With the development of modern technologies, the Internet is advancing at an amazing speed in present-day society.
- But when it comes to whether distance-learning /can replace schools, people hold conflicting views.
- In my mind, distance-learning /can never replace schools.
- Schools definitely have more advantages than e-learning.
- The primary advantage of schools /is that traditional face-to-face learning cultivates students' communication skills.
- It is universally believed that a person's communication skills /are of vital importance /in the contemporary world; thus, students /have to learn communication skills well at school.
- Another advantage of schools /is that teachers are able to cater for students' different needs /in the classroom.
- We all agree that when teachers can see students in the classroom, it is easier for teachers to identify students' needs and take actions accordingly.
- Last but not least, schools provide students with a healthy environment to expand their network.
- One need only look at the value of sitting in the same classroom for years to see the value of friendships developed at school.
- I admit that e-learning gives students more convenience /so that students can learn knowledge and skills at home.
- Nevertheless, e-learning does not offer any other real benefits /except its convenience.
- Based on this point, distance-learning /should not replace schools.
- In summary, online education /may have certain merits, but schools /can never be replaced by e-learning.
- I am convinced that schools will keep offering great value in the future.
- Some people think distance-learning can replace schools. Do you agree?
