Taking placing of
Agree: 1. The deduction of the score may serve as a reminder to students with
procrastination, helping them realize the importance of time management and improve
their efficiency.
2. No punishment on these students may discourage students who submit their
assignments on time, making them lose enthusiasm and copying to procrastinate next
time, thus the whole learning environment will be getting worse.
Disagree: 1. Since each student has a preferred and distinct way of learning, the deadline
may cause students who work hard but slowly to feel anxious and thus slow down their
paces to accomplish the task in turn.
2. Students may fail to complete the task on time due to some uncontrollable factors, and
these students can be given some flexibility in submitting their task, or a negative impact
would be exerted on them that they may be less motivated in the future.
Recommendation:1. Students need to manage their time more effectively and bring out
the ultimate of their potential to allocate time reasonably
2. If students find it difficult to accomplish the assignment on time, they may seek advice
and guidance from teachers.
Reason that makes it realistic: We are now in Industry 4.0 Era, people tend to use easy
ways of payment such as online payment, credit cards etc.
Advantages: There’s no need to carry around huge wads of hard currency.
Disadvantages: 1. It is easy for criminals to try to steal cards, or the information on them,
to make purchases online or in shops.
2. People usually don’t have small changes for newspapers or a cup of coffee. And even
when they are in trouble and need some cash to solve their situation, they can’t deal
without it.
3. People will be more impulsive because they only see the numbers which are minus,
while people will be more shocked when holding the banknotes for purchasing.
Agree with more roads: 1. The increasing number of private cars are inevitable trends in
modern society, which requires more roads to accommodate people’s living
surroundings.
2. The increase of building more roads and highway facilities means the decrease in car
accidents and traffic congestion.
Agree with improving network of public transport: 1. Improving the public
transportation’s network provides a better connectivity among cities and makes it
affordable for all class of people.
2. Better network of public transport contributes to environmental protection by the
decline of exhaust emission.
Advantage of Large shopping mall Time saving from shopping from such multiʹ complex
buildings could be significant factor. Majority of people prefer to go to the shopping
malls rather than the single stores because variety of options are available in one
complex.
For example, clothes, groceries, banks, pharmacies, cinemas, food courts, and restaurants
etc. are all available under a single roof and people get better environment from such
establishment.
Disadvantage of Large shopping mall Parking problems - excursive crowding in the
shopping complex, especially on weekends and holidays.
The prices in large shopping malls are often unreasonable and people end up purchasing
more than they actually need.
The research shows that a child who was born in an abusive environment is more likely
to grow up with the propensity for violence.
Disagree: 1. The children themselves, rather than their parents, should be more
responsible for what they have done. Most of us grow up learning that if things get tough,
mom and dad will find a way to bail you out, taking all the pressure off ourselves. This
can be truly dangerous, and as a result that children can easily become over dependent.
2. Whether parents should pay for their children’s behaviour depends on the age of their
children. If children can fully understand the consequence of their actions, it should be
considered as their own decisions and they should be totally responsible for that.
Agree: 1. Digital media provides all the necessary information in just one click.
2. Digital media also give the latest information about the particular topics with many
other options.
Disagree: 1. The traditional way of teaching will be extinct in the future.online and
students can easily copy other student’s assignments.
Ϯ. Digital media makes student’s work easy by searching information
2. Those skills and first-hand experience that the experiential learning can give is
something that traditional teaching cannot offer.
Disagree: It may affect teacher’s course process to some degree, because each student’s
speed is different, so it requires a corresponding course strategy and it requests higher
qualities of teacher.
Blessing: 1. Medical technology has enhanced people’s life expectancy to a large extent,
which releases a large number of people from severe diseases by injecting vaccines, such
as smallpox and chickenpox.
2. Moreover, some patients could get better within a shorter period of time by using the
advanced medical technology
3. Some people who get the malaria can be completely cured by taking medicine or
injecting vaccines, which reduces the rate of mortality and increase the life expectancy.
4. The medical technology could prevent people from catching certain illness by
improving the immune system
Cursing: 1. With the help of modern medical technology, people’s life expectancy can be
extended. However, some people have pointed out the negative aspects of this
phenomenon.
2. For those people who are suffered from severe diseases, their families may be faced
with a heavy financial burden because it is hard for them to pay the expensive medical
fee. For example, some patients need to be treated with chemotherapy which costs a lot
each time. As a result, their families may have to sell houses or borrow money from
others in order to extend the life of the patients. In this case, the medical technology can
be seen as a cursing for people.
3. Organizations should invest in clean, renewable energy sources, and use less chemical
materials on products. Finally, individuals should not only arise nature protection
awareness, but also implement actions such as walking, taking a bus or train instead of
driving.
Agree: 1. gorgeous buildings of the past represent the culture of a city and it is the
symbol of certain cities. Not only do these buildings enable individuals to get to know the
culture of the city, it provides an authentic feeling for people to learn the essence of a
city.
2. It creates avenue for the goverment when they invest on conserving historic buildings.
One of the biggest reasons for travelling is to have a look at the beautiful buildings and
take photos with them in a new city, which can add a lot of flavour to their journey.
2. Take up time and energy that are originally supposed to be devoted to study
3. Affect scholastic/academic performance/achievement.
4. Become money-oriented, lose interest/motivation in education
Disagree: 1. Improve learning efficiency, acquiring critical thinking, multitasking, time-
management and problem-solving skills
2. Learn to communicate, manage conflict and cooperate with others, associate academic
knowledge with practical experience to get a better understanding of what ʹ they learned
in classes.
3. Cut down on time wasting activities / more productive foster a sense of competition /
cultivate independence / more mature / feeling of achievement / more confident / aware
of / realize their values/abilities/talents/goals
4. Gain career experience, develop interpersonal or social skills, gives insight into future
job market
5. Relief financial burden, provide financial support for further or better education
Agree: 1. Effective study requires a great deal of time, which means focusing on
employment may distract study
2. The current education of all age students is more challenged than before, so everyone
has to pay full attention to achieve better results.
Disagree:1. Students can determine the number of hours they spend on work.
2. A certain amount of workload could help to improve study efficiency as internship
encourages them to think critically and independently.
Agree: 1. The mass media can spread the varied information from different angles in
the society.
