    #16. How to have a satisfying working life?

    It is true that some people know from an early age what career they want to pursue, and they are happy to spend the rest of their lives in the same profession. While I accept that this may suit many people, I believe that others enjoy changing careers or seeking job satisfaction in different ways On the one hand, having a defined career path can certainly lead to a satisfying working life. Many people decide as young children what they want to do as adults and it gives them a great sense of satisfaction to work towards their goals and gradually achieve them. For example, many children dream of becoming doctors, but to realise this ambition they need to gain the relevant qualifications and undertake years of training. In my experience, very few people who have qualified as doctors choose to change career because they find their work so rewarding, and because they have invested so much time and effort to reach their goal On the other hand, people find happiness in their working lives in different ways firstly not everyone dreams of doing a particular job, and it can be equally rewarding to try a variety of professions; starting out on a completely new career path can be a reinvigorating experience. Secondly, some people see their jobs as simply a means of earning money, and they are happy if their salary is high enough to allow them to enjoy life outside work. Finally, job satisfaction is often the result of working conditions, rather than the career itself. for example a positive working atmosphere, enthusiastic colleagues, and an inspirational boss can make working life much more satisfying, regardless of the Profession In conclusion, it can certainly be satisfying to pursue a particular career for the whole of ones life but this is by no means the only route to fulfillment

    #15. Are the ex-prisoners the best people to talk to teenagers about the dangers of committing crime

    It is true that ex-prisoners can become normal, productive members of society. I completely agree with the idea that allowing such people to speak to teenagers about their experiences is the best way to discourage them from breaking the law In my opinion, teenagers are more likely to accept advice from someone who can speak from experience. Reformed offenders can tell young people about how they became involved in crime, the dangers of a criminal lifestyle, and what life in prison is really like. They can also dispel any ideas That teenagers may have about criminals leading glamorous Lives. While adolescents are often indifferent to the guidance given by older people, I imagine that most of them would be extremely keen to hear the stories of an eⅹ- offender. The vivid and perhaps shocking nature of these stories is likely to have a powerful impact. The alternatives to use reformed criminals to educate teenagers about crime would be much less effective. One option would be for police officers to visit school and talk to teenagers . This would be useful in terms of informing teens about what happens to lawbreakers when they are caught, but young people are often reluctant to take advice from figures of authority. a second option would be for school teachers to speak to their students about the crime, but I doubt that teenagers would see teachers as credible sources about this topic. Finally, educational films might be informative but there would be no opportunity for young people to Interact and ask questions In conclusion, I fully support the view that people who have turned their lives around after serving a prison sentence could help deter teenagers from committing crimes

    #14. Should we protect wild animals?

    Some people argue that it is pointless to spend money on the protection of wild animals, because we humans have no need for them. I completely disagree with this point of view In my opinion, it is absurd to argue that wild animals have no place in the 21st century. I do not believe that planet earth exists only for the benefit of humans, and there is nothing special about this particular century that means that we suddenly have the right to allow or encourage the extinction of any species. Furthermore, there is no compelling reason why we should let animals die out. We do not need to exploit or destroy every last square metre of land in order to feed or accommodate the world s population. There is plenty of room for us to exist side by side wild animals, and this should be our aIm. I also disagree with the idea that protecting animals is a waste of resources. It is usually the protection of natural habitats that ensures the survival of wild animals and most scientists agree that these habitats are also crucial for human survival. For example rainforests produce oxygen, absorb carbon dioxide and stabilize the earths climate. If we destroyed these areas the costs of managing the resulting changes to our planet would far outweigh the costs of conservation. By protecting wild animals and their habitats. we maintain the natural balance of all life on earth.In conclusion, we have no right to decide whether or not wild animals should exist and i believe that we should do everything we can to protect them.

    #13. Benefits and drawbacks of video games

    Many people, children in particular, enjoy playing computer games. While I accept that these games can sometimes have a positive effect on the user, i believe that they are more likely to have a harmful impact. On the one hand, video games can be both entertaining and educational. Users or gamers are transported into virtual worlds which are often more exciting and engaging than real-life pastimes. From an educational perspective, these games encourage imagination and creativity, as well as concentration, logical thinking and problem solving, all of which are useful skills outside the gaming context. Furthermore, it has been shown that computer simulation games can improve users motor skills and help to prepare them for real-world tasks, such as flying a plane. However, I would argue that these benefits are outweighed by the drawbacks. Gaming can be highly addictive because users are constantly gIven scores, new targets and frequent rewards to keep them playing. Many children now spend hours each day trying to progress through the levels ot trying to progress through the levels of a game or to get a higher score than their friends This type of addiction can have effects ranging from lack of sleep to problems at school, when homework is sacrificed for a few more hours on the computer or console. The rise in obesity in recent years has also been linked in part to the sedentary lifestyle and lack of exercise that often accompany gaming addiction In conclusion, it seems to me that the potential dangers of video games are more significant than the possible benefits.

    #12. Advantages and disadvantages of books, radio and television

    Play Episode Listen Later Nov 13, 2019 2:19


    There are various benefits and drawbacks of books radio and television as ways to convey information. In my view, television is definitely the most effective one of these three media. The main advantage of books is that they are usually considered to be reliable sources of information, people tend to refer to books when they want to research a subject in depth, and for this reason they continue to play an important role in education. On the other hand books quickly go out of date, and therefore they are not the best medium for communicating news stories. Radio is a much more effective medium than books for the communication of up-to-date information. We can listen to news broadcasts about events as they happen, and a key benefit of radio is that we can listen to it while doing other activities, such as driving or working, the main drawback of radio when compared to books or television is that there is no visual element: we cannot see what the broadcaster is describing. In my opinion, television is the most effective of these three media because it brings us closer to reality than a book or radio programme ever can. For example, we can watch events as they take place on the other side of the world, or we can see the body language of a politician who is being interviewed. The disadvantages of television are that programmes tend to be short and interrupted by advertisements, meaning that information is presented in limited depth. In conclusion, although books radio and television each have their advantages and disadvantages, it seems to me that the impact of elevision is greater.
