how do children learn effetively by watching TV Some people believe that children can learn effectively by watching TV and they should be encourage to watch TV both at home and school. To what extent do you agree or disagree? It is true that watching TV for children to learning/study has become a common phenomenon in modern society. Whether or not this is a good thing for children, is a moot point. On the face of it the advantages seem most apparent, but could there be a detrimental to this phenomenon of learning method of TV as well？ Children could learn a lot about every courses from a multitude of TV programs. So many TV videos are designed to be educational, which is definitely beneficial for children to learn effectively. For instance, children could figure out the questions they do not understand clearly at the class through the TV channels of learning, they then do not have to start their next lesson with questions. It is no doubt that it is quite useful to them. Is it possible that improving efficiency of learning by watching TV could be in any way detrimental to children. This is an usual question, but there are some hidden pitfalls. For one, there are multiple channels for children to choose and some of them are not proper to watch . Children could be distracted by them if there has no supervision from their parents or teachers. For another, watching TV for quite a long time is certainly harmful to children’s sight, which could cause some problems for children. For example, children sitting at the back of the classroom may not see the blackboard clearly when their sight become weak, which may influence their grade. Finally, with achieving the answers easily form the TV, children may lose the ability to settle the problems independently, which may hurt their imagination and curiosity, resulting in failure in their career of the future, because it is unlikely for people without creative to be successful in the future. It is clear then that this situation is not as straightforward as it first appears. It would seem that it is impossible for children to learn effectively through watching TV unless enough provision provided form their parents or teachers.

"make ...to do" or"make... do" I saw a sentence like this: There is a situational factor which means that the context we are in makes us more likely TO focus on one set of goals or the other. The dictionary shows when “make” means “to force”, we usually use “make sb +adj or + do” unless “be made”, we can use “be made …to do..” So I don’t understand why it uses the structure like“make sb to do sth” in this sentence and which exactly mean does "make" have in this sentence. Maybe "let"

Tuition fees of high education In modern society, most of people have easily access to achieve a degree at the university. But, the cost of high education may be a big problem to people willing to study but unable to afford. Although some people argue that the government should pay tuition fees for people in need, there may cause some problems to the society. It is literally conducive for people learning at college if the office supplies financial support including whole fees of high education. College students do not need to spend their leisure time working hard in order to earn money to pay tuition fees, they thus can concentrate on main subjects so as to get higher grades, which is also beneficial for them in future. For example, students would get a better job after graduated if their Grade Point Average is of extraordinary excellence. However, there would be harmful to the development of the society. When the government covers the cost of high education, it may have to reduce some funds once planned to progress other facilities of the respects of the society, like healthcare system or transportation system, and burden tax-payers with this case. For instance, if transportation system is underdevelopment because of lacking of fund investment, citizens have to drive by themselves rather than take buses or ride railways, which may be inconvenience for travelling especially during a long trip. To sum up, Paying tuition fees by the government is definitely beneficial for people unable to afford, but it is meanwhile harmful to the progression of the society. I would say I am agree with the current high education system, in which people need to pay fees by themselves, and by which enough scholarships are provided for those in need.

is this sentence right? There will always BE a number of people COULD not be able to handle the demands of technology placed upon them by employers.

shifting jobs Today, people do not always work for the same job. Why does it happen and how do people prepare for job insecurity. With the development of economy and society, it is impossible for people to continue to run the career for decades at the same firm in the modern society. This change would have an influence on people’s life style. Even a big company would come across the moment, whose benefit is decline, and it need to dismiss some of employees to keep the corporation safe in the depression. Actually, a couple of people could not be able to purse the pace of technology unsatisfying the needs of employers. They are likely to lose their jobs due to the fact that they don’t run the functions of the latest software quite well, which may reduce the efficiency of project. On the other hand, people want more promotion on career or to live a better life than before through changing jobs. They can shift jobs easily when they have enough experience in how to work efficiently, which may be needed by other firms as useful skills. This could be happened oftentimes in recent years including all kinds of jobs. From my point of view, it may become a common phenomenon for shifting jobs. No matter form personal view or societal level, people around world, no matter who they are, may need to increase new knowledge on their own field in order to follow the pace of development of technology if they want to do a same job at a same corporation. For instance, people who need work should spend leisure time to broaden their horizon, which may also be beneficial for their future. In conclusion, I suppose that it may not be bad for changes of jobs. People would not have a happy life until they keep learning.
