Do we need to limit number of university places? Welcome to correction! It is neither possible nor useful for a country to provide university places for a high proportion of young people. To what extent do you agree or disagree? Nowadays, not all young people who want to continue studying in a college or a university after high school may be enrolled due to a limited amount of places there. It may be caused by a limited amount of places and a high price of the university course. In general, I agree with this situation. Each university has to challenge enrollees with entry exams to filter less prepared ones. Every young adult has to be motivated even in school to have an opportunity become a student of a well-known and respectful university. That exams allow the university to weed out weak enrollees even before a start of a learning process. This procedure guarantees high education level of students from the very beginning. Another point of limiting a size of universities is job market. Let's imagine the situation when everybody who wants to study medicine could be credited. In not distant future job marked will be piled out with unemployed graduates with no chance to find any vacancy. It will be significant impact and prestige of a university degree will drop down. On the other hand, education inequity may become an obstacle for graduates from a countryside or small towns because of their education level considerably lower in comparison with schools in cities. But I suppose that parents should think about their children's future and try to provide the best education they can. In conclusion, I suppose that number of universities and colleges will grow in future according to further development of our society, but it should be in balance with employer's requirements

Big or small business. Which will remain? Due to the development and rapid expansion of supermarkets in some countries, many small, local business are unable to compete. Some people think that the closure of local business will bring about the death of local communities. To what extent do you agree or disagree? Globalization processes bring us to bigger and bigger companies which force small companies to die due to lack of competition strength. Will those processes totally bankrupts all local small businesses? I don't think so. Obviously, a huge company could receive some privileges from suppliers - discounts, payment credits, product customization. All these benefits make their business more profitable. Business processes work better in a big company, it's mandatory condition to let business grow. But, at the other hand, there are a lot of opportunities where one entrepreneur or small family company may to built a custom product based on local requirements, they can create close relations with their customers, make them feel unique. As an example, I can mention about my wife's haircut studio. She knows each customer, they can talk about news, events, families. Just one this feeling may a customer to stick to your business. Finally, I want to quote the famous phrase of Mao Zedong: "Let a hundred flowers bloom". We have a huge world with billions of opportunities and each person able to start own business and be happy doing a favorite job.

Are movies better than literature? Corrections welcome. Many people regard films as a less important form of art than literature and painting. To what extent do you agree or disagree? Right after the very beginning of the movie industry, there were a lot of concerns that people will stop reading books, be watching paintings, visiting theaters because of easiness of consumption. There is no need to imagine background, let brain think about book's environment or painter's mood while he has drawn the picture. Movie and cartoons like fast-food, there are quite understandable, provide less space for imagination and strictly limited in time. But I hardly disagree with this opinion because like any invention movies gave us much more than we lost like visuals which are hard to create. Each individual has its own level of knowledge of history, geography, science. Cinema acts as a teacher in this case by showing the way people dress in the past or describing some scientific event in a simple way. Also, every good movie has a stellar cast. Famous actors could play deep emotions and force people to feel the same. I often cry watching a movie, but never while reading a book. Movies aren't excluding the existence of books. Vice versa, many of them are based on some best-seller book. And now we live in such fast-paced world, that there is no time to read books, so watching movies may be the only way to stay up to date with current book's novelties. Finally, I believe that technical progress will invent even more attractive ways to engage people to the culture and entertainment, other dimensions like smells of vibrations may impress people even more and give people's thoughts good ground to grow.
