2. (17/01/2015) Some people think that there should be some strict controls
about noise. Others think that they could just make as much noise as they
want. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
ANSWER:
It is argued that some essential
measures should be applied to control essential measures: to create a rule or
law that is necessary or important to
noise. While some individuals say that promote or stop some type of behavior
they have the freedom to make noise as
they like, I would argue that it would
be better to reduce noise. reduce noise: to lessen the amount of
noise from some source, like from
traffic, machines, clubs, etc
On the one hand, some people like to

various reasons. Firstly, many of them

It is true that many people think that

causes for this feeling can be identified,
but I believe that some solutions could
help to allay those fears.
The perception that society is unsafe stems from [phrasal verb]: result

stems from at least two important
causes. Firstly, the widening gap

the factors behind the rising crime rate

On the other hand, I believe that there
