In the future, students may have the choice of studying at home by using technology such as computers or television or of studying at traditional schools.
I believe that it is better to study at school than at home. I can learn a lot if I study alone at
home, but I can learn more if I study at school with other people. I can gain a Jot of information
from other people. I also learn a lot by interacting with them. I am motivated to study
more if I don't work alone. Therefore, I believe I can learn a lot more at school.
Information comes from technology, but it also comes from people. If I study at home, I
can get a lot of information from my computer, DVD player, and television. If I study at school,
I can get all this information, and I can also get information from my teachers and classmates.
So, I learn more.
Interaction with other people increases my knowledge. At home I have nobody to talk to.
Nobody can hear my ideas. At school I have the opportunity to interact with other people.
We can explain our ideas to each other. We can agree and disagree. Together we can develop
our ideas and learn to understand new things.
Competition motivates me. When I am at home, nobody can see my work. Nobody can
tell me that I did a good job or a bad job. When I am at school, my teacher and my classmates
see my work, and I can see my classmates' work. I want to do a good job like my classmates,
or even a better job. So, I want to study harder.
Some people can study very well when they are alone at home, but I can't. I need to have
other people near me. When I am with other people, I have the possibility to learn more
information. I have the opportunity to develop my ideas more completely. I have the motivation
to do a better job. Therefore, school is the best place for me.
It is more important for students to study history and literature than it is for them to study science and mathematics.
In my opinion, it is much more important for students to study science and mathematics
than it is for them to study history and literature. Science and mathematics are much more
practical. It is easier to get a job with science and math skills. Scientists and mathematicians
have more social prestige, and they can earn higher salaries.
People who study science and mathematics get jobs more easily than people who study
history and literature. There are always jobs in fields such as medicine, computer science,
engineering, and other professions that require a science or math background. People who
study history or literature can only become writers or college professors. It is difficult to get
|

|
well-paying jobs in those fields.
Scientists and mathematicians have a lot of social prestige. Let's face it-our society values
science and math. If you go to a party and say, "I am a rocket scientist," people will be interested
in you. They will want to talk to you and be your friend. If you say, "I am an historian,"
no one will pay any attention to you.
Scientists and mathematicians also earn more money than people in other fields because
society values them more. A doctor, a chemist, a medical researcher,-a person in any one of
these professions usually earns a far higher salary than a literature professor, for example, or
a history expert.
Our society values science and math, so it is important to develop skills in these areas. If
you have a science or math background, you are sure to get a good job, have lots of social
prestige, and earn a good salary. Faced with this fact, who would want to study anything else?
Some people say that physical exercise should be a required part of every school day. Other people believe that students should spend the whole school day on academic studies.
While physical exercise is important, I do not believe that it is a school's responsibility to
provide physical training for its students. If physical exercise is part of the school program,
that means that students have to receive grades for it and that the school has to pay for the
necessary space and equipment. This seems a waste of effort and resources when students
can usually get enough physical exercise on their own.
If a school offers physical education classes, then students will have to be graded in them.
It is not always easy to do this fairly. Some schools, especially smaller ones, may not be able
to offer activities that interest everyone. Then some students might get poor grades simply
because the school couldn't offer an activity they enjoy or do well in. In addition, research
suggests that participation, not excellence, in physical activities is what benefits the body.
Another issue is economic. Physical education costs money and many schools do not have

|
the money to provide gym facilities, playing fields, and athletic equipment for their students.
Other schools are located in cities where that kind of space just isn't available. A few schools
would rather keep money for academic purposes.
Many students get plenty of physical exercise as part of their daily life or recreation. Some
students walk or ride their bicycles to schools. Some participate in soccer teams or tennis
leagues outside of schools. Young people are usually active and have plenty of chances to get
exercise outside of school, whether in organized activities or not.
It is important to get plenty of physical exercise, and young people usually do this. They
don't need the school to focus effort and money on their physical education. It is much better
to direct the school's resources toward academic achievement.
