I would therefore argue that although there are disadvantages of the current trend to live

More and more students are choosing to study at colleges and universities in
foreign countries.
Do the benefits of studying abroad outweigh the drawbacks?
These days many of the students are adopting foreign universities and colleges for their
further education. I believe that this has more benefits than drawbacks.
The disadvantage of this development is the distance that result between families.
Although many social media applications now offer video calling services where people
can interact and talk to their loved ones but still the face to face interaction has no
match and it is highly likely that a person will come to visit his family once or twice in
year to spend time and greet with them for a short period of time.
Despite this, there are significant advantages it can bring into people’s life. Firstly, it
means people get a chance to explore other parts of world that will let them to learn
other cultures, traditions and languages. For example, people from South Asia often go
to West for further studies and vice versa.
In addition to this, most of the students prefer to have a degree from a university or
country that can elevate their career. It is highly likely that one university or a country
excel in the fields of life. For example, on one hand Japan and Germany are very good
in automatic sectors while USA in other fields of life like Telecommunication, medicines
and energy sector. Therefore, a student can look into other institutes around the globe
according to his core specialization that lack in his country of origin.
I would therefore argue although there are disadvantages of the current trend to study in
foreign colleges and universities, they are outweighed by advantages. It can enrich the
career of a person and improve his productivity overall.
More and more parents are allowing their children to play on computers and
tablets as they think that children should learn technology skills.
Do the advantages of this development outweigh the disadvantages?
Body para: disadvantage, health problems, lack of social network
Advantage: improvement of intellectual skills,
Adv: Due to busy work env, the parents are forced
These days many of the parents allow the children to use computer and tablets for their
different use. This is primarily due to the fact that they believe the child would learn the
advancement of technology by using these gadgets. I believe that this has more
benefits than drawbacks.
The disadvantage of this development is related to health problem and lack of social
networking. If a child continue to play on these stuffs for long duration this will affect
their health. A report published in Pakistan in Jan 2020 which highlighted the number of
Migraine patients in Pakistan that increased to almost double in past few years primarily
due to radiations that emerge from the mobile, computer and tablets. On the other hand,
if a child spend his most of time in front of screens, it is highly likely that he will lack
social networks even among his family members.
Despite this, there are significant advantages it can bring into children’s life. Firstly, it
will enable the child to take relax from his/her boredom life. Also, it help in improving the
cognitive thinking and intellectual skills of a person by playing games. According to
WHO, those children who like to play games on computer are likely to be more efficient
and have more IQ level.
In addition to his, in this busy world both of the parents are usually at work in day time
and they get tired after arrival from office. Thanks to these gadgets, now they can
manage other tasks well by engaging the children with useful videos and games.
I would therefore argue although there are disadvantages of the current trend to let the
children play on these stuffs, they are outweighed by the advantages. It can increase
the intellectual ability, improve the brain nourishment and help the parents to engage
their child.

In order to solve traffic problems, governments should tax private car owners
heavily and use the money to improve public transportation.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of such a solution?
Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own
experience or knowledge.
Write at least 250 words.
Traffic congestion in many cities around the world is severe. One possible solution is
that the Government to take revenue from private car drivers by enforcing a heavy tax
and utilize that money for overhauling the public transport. This essay will discuss the
benefits and drawbacks of such a measure.
One of the first benefits of such measure is that the heavy taxes will discourage the
drivers to use their own cars because it would be too expensive to drive. This would
mean this will start using public transport and that will lessen the traffic problems and
also the pollution. Another benefit is that the improvement of public transportation. It is
universally truth that when number of customers increases for a particular product then
the net sale and eventually quality of products improves. Therefore, if the trend of using
public transport increases then the quality of public transportation would definitely
increase. The additional money generated can be utilized for betterment of public
transports.
Nevertheless, there are drawbacks to such a solution. First and foremost, this would be
burden on car owners. At present, people pay a lot inform of taxes to government and
additional taxes will add the expense of a common man further. In addition, this type of
tax is usually fixed type which a poor or middle class person will be unable to bear
however, richer people are likely to afford. It is therefore not a fair tax.
To conclude, this solution is worth considering to improve the current situation, but there
are certain advantages and disadvantages of introducing such a policy.

R1-Calibre or status, improvement of their skin to look youn
E1: Health: skin damages from chemical
In today’s world, the use of skin whitening products have gained much momentum from
the people. The market of these products have become much profitable and this essay
will examine the reasons why people use these products and the effects this has on
people’s health and society.
The principal reason that people use skin whitening items is because of the fear that
they look older. These products soften the part of a body and make one look refreshing.
For example actors who play on television must look young and vibrant all the times so
-they use these kind of products in order to look younger. In addition to this, people also
use these products in order to maintain the status in a society they live in. In this way
the more expensive the product is, the higher will be the status of a person using it.
However, despite the fact that skin whitening product improve in self-esteem of a
person, these products are dangerous in longer run. These items are made from
chemical which are not good for human health. The skin of a person varies from another
person and those chemicals might react to one’s skin which is sensitive. Also, use of
skin whitening is not good for society. Because of theory that “white” is always better
than “black” and thus skin whitening products will further add on discrimination among
society.
In conculsion, people use whitening product, caught in perception, that these products
actually whiten the skin. However, consequences of using these kind of products must
be highlighted because these kind of products not only harmful for health but also give
discrimination among society.

Society: Abundance of old people
The trend of delaying a child is becoming very common and this essay will discuss the
reason behind this and potential effect of this on a family and society.
The principal reason for delaying the child is due to employment status of a woman. As
more and more women are joining workforce, the trend of late marriages and thus a
child is increasing. This is due to the fact that woman want to be remain fit and do not
want her professional life to get disturbed by getting additional responsibility of a child.
Also, both the parents need to enjoy the single life due to much stressed job. They
prefer to remain without a child for relatively longer period of time till they get relief from
their respective employers. In many cases, the expensive childcare cannot be afforded
by parents and thus this option may not be suitable for parents to carry on.
There are number of possible impacts on both the family and society. First and
foremost, late child can increase the problems within family like with growing age it
become really difficult to raise a baby and also it can trigger problems during pregnancy.
It is widely accepted that the younger woman have a capacity to absorb the pregnancy
pain and this absorption tend to decrease with age. Also, the late child impact on the
society because in this case there would be older people. The positive side of this
development is that there will be availability of vast skill set. Negative side of this impact
is definitely less young people to take care of older people.
In conclusion, there are number of reasons for late child by the parents in their life, and
this can have number of impacts both positive and negative. Given the fact the society
is continue to adapt it, this trend is likely to continue.’
