Example 1

Many people believe that women make better parents than men and that is why they have the greater role in raising children in most societies. Others claim that men are just as good as women at parenting. Write an essay expressing your point of view.

The view that women are better parents than men has shown itself to be true throughout history. This is not to say that men are of little or no importance in childrearing; instead, they are most necessary if children are to appreciate fully the roles of both sexes. But women have proven themselves superior parents as a result of their conditioning, their less aggressive natures and their generally better communication skills.

From the time they are little girls, females learn about nurturing. First, with dolls and later perhaps with younger brothers and sisters, girls are given the role of career. Girls see their mothers in the same roles and so it is natural that they identify this as a female activity. Boys, in contrast, learn competitive roles far removed from what it means to nurture. While boys may dream of adventures, girls’It conditioning means they tend to see the future in terms of raising families. Girls also appear to be less aggressive than boys. In adulthood, it is men, not women, who prove to be the aggressors in crime and in war. Obviously, in raising children, a more patient, gentle manner is preferable to a more aggressive one. Although there certainly exist gentle men and aggressive women, by and large, females are less likely to resort to violence in attempting to solve problems.

Finally, women tend to be better communicators than men. This is shown in intelligence tests, where females, on average, do better in verbal communication than males. Of course, communication is of utmost importance in rearing children, as children tend to learn from and adopt the communication styles of their parents.

Thus, while it is all very well to suggest a greater role for men in raising children, let us not forget that women are generally better suited to the parenting role.

Example 2

The benefits of computers to modern society far outweigh the disadvantages. Discuss.

There have been two opposing views about using computers in modern times. One view states that using computers makes everyday life much easier and they must be widely used. Another view, in contrast to the first one, believes that computers have many disadvantages and therefore it should not be used at all. It is a matter of choice, to choose the first issue or the second one.

Those who support using computers in everyday life usually mention the benefits of computers on the job, or at home or maybe as consumers. For example, on the job, we usually do our work much faster if we use a computer; at home we can contact libraries or many other resource areas for information by using computers and also consumers can use computers in order to do their work faster. Therefore, it is useful to use computers widely around the world.

Another issue proclaims that using computers causes loss of jobs for many people and also losing the privacy of individuals. These machines can do multi-jobs at the same time without any need for people to help. Losing privacy is another main important disadvantage. For any professional person in using computers may easily reach the personal information of the individuals due to lack of security system.






In conclusion, it is necessary to use computers and do something about their disadvantages. I do believe that, as time passes, the technology of computers can reach a point to overcome their deficiencies and solve those problems mentioned so far.

Example 3

Many young people find their first day at high school or college difficult, because they feel very alone. What do you think are the other difficulties they face on their first day? What can schools and colleges do to make them feel more comfortable?

It is not uncommon these days for high school or college freshmen to feel lonely on their first day at school. They get lost on campus, fail to catch sight of any familiar face or have nobody to turn to for help. In my view, this increasingly common and serious phenomenon is an indication of the wide gap between these students’ unrealistic vision of school life and disappointing reality.

Some of the difficulties students encounter concern logistics. For example, they are puzzled as to the location of the students’ cafeterias, where to register, or how they can retrieve information from the school library. To tackle these problems, a well-organized “orientation session” starting from the very first day would seem helpful. Students feel more at home if they have a detailed campus map, with every place they need to go marked on it.

More often, students’ sense of alienation arises from their own assumption of inadequacy as they face the new period of an independent life. This is natural enough after long years of childhood, when they were completely under their parents’ control. On their first day in the new environment, they are frustrated to find that what they aspired for -“a brave new world” -turns out

to be a strange and alien one, and they are afraid that they may become even more disillusioned in the days to come.

Yet, with efforts from both the school and the students, the prospect of their gap being bridged is far from dim. Students should be encouraged and motivated to recognize the fact that they are now beginning to be responsible for themselves. To make this transitional period go smoothly, students should be given the opportunity to prepare themselves. Schools and colleges can invite prospective students for a brief campus tour before the new term starts. Junior or senior student can be organized to share their own experience of campus life with freshmen. As a result, students will develop a confident feeling about themselves as capable people.
