Some people think learning a foreign language at school should be compulsory. To what extent do you agree with it? Use your experience or examples to support your viewpoint.

 Language is a way to communicate with each other. I believe language is one thing that makes humans different than animals, and all the achievements of humankind can be due to language. In this essay, I am going to give some of the points on the side of making learning a foreign language compulsory at school.

Children are the future of the nation. They started from the pond and here the pond refers to the family. Now, they are in a lake which is a school and if they learn to swim properly, they will reach the sea. What I mean to say is, learning a new language opens up new horizons. They will understand foreign people. In this globalized world, that is one of the superpowers.
Secondly, it helps them to understand new things. Think about how many new books they can read. For example, for me, English is a foreign language. If I was just using my mother tongue, I would be limited to the number of books that I could read.
Finally, children's minds are flexible and can grab things quickly. That means it is better to let them learn a foreign language early in their life. They will understand faster, which will help them in their life in the future.
In conclusion, considering all these things, I am in favour of the foreign language at school being compulsory.

More and more countries spend large amounts of money on the restoration of historic buildings instead of on modern housing. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this analysis? What are advantages and disadvantages of this? Support your writing with your experience or examples.

  Historic buildings are our heritage and show our culture. Nowadays, more and more countries are spending large amounts of money on the restoration of historic buildings instead of on modern housing. I totally agree with this analysis and in this essay we are going to explore the advantages and disadvantages of it. Firstly, historic buildings are a representation of our ancestors and represent our roots. There is no example of prosperity without firm roots, which we can see in multiple civilizations throughout history. Secondly, these are tourist attracting monuments, and can give an economic boom for the country. Restoration of historic buildings will help to keep this tourist flowing to the country, which can be beneficial for the whole country. On the other hand, if you just invest money in old buildings, you will miss out on modern development. If your resources are spent on the past, there might be very little future. Furthermore, if an area is covered with old buildings, the...

A good listener is better than a good talker in a social situation. Do you agree or disagree?

  I read a book once which talked about how to become a good communicator, and the answer was by being a good listener. I totally agree that a good listener is better than a good talker in a social situation. In this essay I am going to present my point and explore the idea. Firstly, to manage a social situation, you need to understand the situation and the best way to understand the situation is to listen carefully. Then, try to look at a problem from a different perspective, which is a good way to solve it. Secondly, most of the time problems are created because of the words. It is often clever to be silent in a social situation, rather than to speak. Rather than a roar, an act of kindness is needed in social situations, which will elevate your personality. Furthermore, in some situations and especially in social situations, silence means power. It is recommended that in a business meeting, the main person or a chair person should speak at last, so that they can listen to all the...

Do you agree that the rise of artificial intelligence raises ethical concerns?

  Artificial intelligence is a very new technology, and is believed that it will bring a lot of change. With the rise of artificial intelligence, there is also a rise in ethical concerns. Actually, people are afraid of it. I do agree that artificial intelligence raises ethical concerns. In this essay, I am going to discuss some of the points that made me believe that thing. Firstly, it is a new technology which is still in the development stage. People need to fully explore it before it is made more generalized. Secondly, artificial intelligence that can mimic the human mind with the raw metal body is a very powerful thing. The power of it is emance and, on the wrong hand, it will do enormous damage to the whole society and human race. However, a lot of companies who are working in the field have taken this into consideration. Lastly, if machines become intelligent, it will create a huge problem for employment. All the non-technical jobs and some technical jobs are better performed...
