Topic:
Some people think that dangerous sports should be banned, while others disagree. Do you agree or disagree? Give reasons and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge and experience.
Answer:
From the evidence of the history, dangerous sports have been more preferred by people than other competitions. Despite this fact, some people hold the opinion that these deadly sports should be banned as they may hurt athlete’s health and even ruin their lives. I disagree with this view and believe that such sports can easing international tensions and bring people together.
Firs of all, the history has shown that extreme competitions could even interrupt battles and bring nations together to stadiums. From the ancient world, when Greeks and Romans would leave battlefields to participate in the gladiators games. To the modern politics disputes, when athletes from Israel and Palestine would forget their differences and compete fair and peacefully in martial games. Moreover, these sports usually attract the world’s attention that could force leaders to stop their disputes and review options to make partnerships with the opponents.
Secondly, dangerous sports can bring people with different background together. For example, my country is a multicultural one, but people are still divided into ethnical groups. However, MMI fights is a national sport and people with different culture and believes would support our sportsmen and sportswomen during the season together as one. It is clear that these competitions greatly benefit our community teaching the citizens tolerance.
Nevertheless, it is impossible to ignore arguments against dangerous sports. It is obvious that there is a huge risk for athletes. Hence, the event organizers could improve rules and develop new types of safety equipment to reduce this risk and to make such sports less dangerous.
In conclusion, banning dangerous sports can bring more disadvantages than benefits. In my opinion, we should focus on improving facilities, standards and rules for these sports to minimize the risks.
Hi everyone!
Today, doing practice, I found following interesting essay question:
<em>Nowadays companies and other organisations are requiring their employees to wear a uniform.</em>
<em>Think about jobs where uniform is important.</em>
<em>What are the advantages and disadvantages of wearing a uniform?</em>
<em>
</em>
I know (I hope so :) ) following types of essay:
- Discussion
- Opinion
- Situation/Problem, Solution
But it seems that this one doesn’t feet in any types that I’ve known. It looks like a situation (the first 2 sentences), but at the same time like a discussion (last question). So, I’m a bit confused, could you kindly advise me, if the following structure is ok to answering this question:
<em>Introduction:</em>
<em>- Short description of the situation</em>
<em>- Short description why it can be used</em>
<em>1st paragraph:</em>
<em>- Introducing a job that requires wearing uniforms</em>
<em>- Explanation “why?”</em>
<em>2st paragraph:</em>
<em>- Introducing another job that requires wearing uniforms</em>
<em>- Explanation “why?”</em>
<em>3rd paragraph:</em>
<em>- Topic sentence (There are other advantages wearing ….)</em>
<em>- First advantage and example</em>
<em>- Second advantage and example</em>
<em>4th paragraph:</em>
<em>- Topic sentence (Despite the advantages …)</em>
<em>- First drawback and example</em>
<em>- Second drawback and example</em>
<em>Conclusion:</em>
<em>- Summarizing</em>
<em>- My opinion</em>
Thank you in advance!
