some of the arguments.
The use of seat belts has been proven to reduce the risk of injury or death in an accident.
Seat belt has become standard component in cars. The research shows that most car
accident will cause an injury to the head. Frequently, drivers or the passengers driving
 without seat belts die because of this. By wearing the seat belts, the injury will not happen
since belts restrain our body on the car seat when the accident happens.
Unfortunately, many cars, especially the old ones, don't have seat belts. This is because the
traffic conditions in the past were unlike the recent traffic conditions. The designer of old
cars didn't consider a seat belt as an important part. Besides, the drivers wearing the seat
belt will think that they are completely safe, so they may drive carelessly. They are safe,

8. Should performance enhancing drugs be accepted in sports?
The issue of using drugs to enhance athlete’s performance is controversial. Those who agree
to the use of drugs in enhancing performance say that most top players in all sports take
drugs to train harder and feel no pain during play. The trainers, sports doctors, nutritionists,
physiotherapists, and managers of the big names make sure banned substances are taken at
the safest and most efficient levels. The main effect of banning such substances has turned
performers and their coaches into liars and cheaters.
On the other hand, some still believe that performance enhancing drugs in sport should be
banned. Performance enhancing drugs are not only prohibited because they violate the spirit
of sport but because they can damage the health of athletes.
I think the idea of allowing them in sports could lead to a situation whereby sportsmen and
women are used as human guinea pigs for a constant flow of new, unregulated substances.
W hat argument is given by those who disagree with the use of performance enhancing drugs?
a) Athletes perform better. b) Athletes consume more drugs.
c) Athletes obey the rules. d) Athletes health is badly affected.

12. There are a lot of discussions as to whether children should be given homework or not.
Some people claim that children to enough work in school already. They also argue that
children have hobbies that they want to do after school, such as sports or music. A further
point they make is that a lot of homework is pointless and doesn't help the child learn at all.
However, there are also strong arguments against this point of view. Parents and teachers
argue that it is important to find out whether children can work on their own without the
support from the teacher. They say that the evening is a good time for children to sit down
and think about what they have learned in school.
Furthermore they claim that the school day is too short to get anything done that needs
doing and it makes sense to send home tasks like independent reading or further writing
tasks that don't need teacher's support.
On balance, I think that some homework is a good idea but that it should only given at the
weekend when children have more time.
