In many countries schools have severe problems with student behavior.
What do you think are the causes of this? What solutions can you
suggest?
Poor student behavior seems to be an increasingly widespread problem and I
think that modern lifestyles are probably responsible for this.
In many countries, the birth rate is decreasing so that families are
smaller with fewer children. These children are often spoilt, not in terms of
love and attention because working parents do not have the time for this, but in
more material ways. They are allowed to have whatever they want, regardless of
price, and to behave as they please. This means that the children grow up
without consideration for others and without any understanding of where
their standard of living comes from.
When they get to school age they have not learnt any self-control or
discipline. They have less respect for their teachers and refuse to obey school

rules in the way that their parents did. Teachers continually complain about
this problem and measures should be taken to combat the situation. But I think
the solution to the problem lies with the families, who need to be more aware of
the future consequences of spoiling their children. If they could raise them to
be considerate of others and to be social, responsible individuals, the whole
community would benefit.
Perhaps parenting classes are needed to help them to do this, and high
quality nursery schools could be established that would support families more in
terms of raising the next generation. The government should fund this kind of
parental support, because this is no longer a problem for individual families,
but for society as a whole.

Happiness is considered very important in life. Why is it difficult to
define? What factors are important in achieving happiness?
Happiness is very difficult to define, because it means so many different
things to different people. While some people link happiness to wealth and
material success, others think it lies in emotions and loving personal
relationships. Yet others think that spiritual paths, rather than either the
material world or relationships with people, are the only way to true
happiness.
Because people interpret happiness for themselves in so many different
ways, it is difficult to give any definition that is true for everyone. However,
if there are different kinds of happiness for different individuals then the
first step in achieving it would be to have a degree of self-knowledge. A person
needs to know who he or she is before being able to know what it is that makes
him or her happy.
Of course, factors such as loving relationships, good health, the skills to
earn a living and a peaceful environment all contribute to our happiness too.
But this does not mean that people without these conditions cannot be happy.
Overall, I think an ability to keep clear perspectives in life is a more
essential factor in achieving happiness. By that I mean an ability to have a
clear sense of what is important in our lives (the welfare of our families, the
quality of our relationships, making other people happy, etc.) and what is not
(a problem at work, getting annoyed about trivial things, etc.)
Like self-awareness, this is also very difficult to achieve, but I think
these are the two factors that may be the most important for achieving
happiness.

Research indicates that the characteristics we are born with have much more
influence on our personality and development than any experiences we may have in
our life.
Which do you consider to be the major influence?
Today the way we consider human psychology and mental development is
heavily influenced by the genetic sciences. We now understand the importance to
inherited characteristics more than ever before. Yet we are still unable to
decide whether an individual’s personality and development are more influenced
by genetic factors (nature) or by the environment (nurture).
Research, relating to identical twins, has highlighted how significant
inherited characteristics can be for an individual’s life. But whether these
characteristics are able to develop within the personality of an individual
surely depends on whether the circumstances allow such a development. It seems
that the experiences we have in life are so unpredictable and so powerful, that
they can boost or over-ride other influences, and there seems to be plenty of
research finding s to confirm this.
My own view is that there is no one major influence in a person’s life.
Instead, the traits we inherit from our parents and the situations and
experiences that we encounter in life are constantly interacting. It is the
interaction of the two that shapes a person’s personality and dictates ow that
personality develops. If this were not true, then we would be able to predict
the behavior and character of a person form the moment they were born.
In conclusion, I do not think that either nature or nurture is the major
influence on a person, but that both have powerful effects. How these factors
interact is still unknown today and they remain largely unpredictable in a
person’s life.

In some countries young people are encouraged to work or travel for a year
between finishing high school and starting university studies. Discuss the
advantages and disadvantages for young people who decide to do this.
It is quite common these days for young people in many countries to have a
break from studying after graduating from high school. The trend is not
restricted to rich students who have the money to travel, but is also evident
among poorer students who choose to work and become economically independent for
a period of time.
The reasons for this trend may involve the recognition that a young adult
who passes directly from school to university is rather restricted in terms of
general knowledge and experience of the world. By contrast, those who have spent
some time earning a living or travelling to other places, have a broader view of
life and better personal resources to draw on. They tend to be more independent,
which is a very important factor in academic study and research., as well as
giving them an advantage in terms of coping with the challenges of student
life.
However, there are certainly dangers in taking time off at that important
age. Young adults may end up never returning to their studies or finding it
difficult to readapt to an academic environment. They may think different from a
university course. But overall, I think this is less likely today, when academic
qualifications are essential for getting a reasonable career.
My view is that young people should be encouraged to broaden their
horizons. That is the best way for them to get a clear perspective of what they
are hoping to do with their lives and why. Students with such a perspective are
usually the most effective and motivated ones and taking a year off may be the
best way to gain this.

Some people prefer to spend their lives doing the same things and avoiding
change. Other, however, think that change is always a good thing. Discuss both
these views and give your own opinion.
Over the last half century the pace of change in the life of human beings
has increased beyond our wildest expectations. This has been driven by
technological and scientific breakthroughs that are changing whole way we view
the world on an almost daily basis. This means that change is not always a
personal option, but an inescapable fact of life, and we need to constantly
adapt to keep pace with it.
Those people who believe they have achieved some security by doing the
same, familiar things are living in denial. Even when people believe they are
resisting change themselves, they cannot stop the world around them from
changing. Sooner or later they will find that the familiar jobs no longer exist,
or that the ‘safe’ patterns of behavior are no longer appropriate.
However, reaching the conclusion that change is inevitable is not the same
as assuming that ‘change is always for the better’. Unfortunately, it is not
always the case that new things are promoted they have good impacts for the
majority of people. A lot of innovations are made with the aim of making money
for a few. This is because it is the rich and powerful people in our society who
are able to impose changes (such as in working conditions or property
developments) that are in their own interests.
In conclusion, I would say that change can be stimulating and energizing
for individuals when they pursue it themselves, but that all change, including
that which is imposed on people, does not necessarily have good outcomes.

Successful sports professional can earn a great deal more money than people
in other important professions. Some people think this is fully justified while
think it is unfair. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
As a result of constant media attention, sports professionals in my country
have become stars and celebrities, and those at the top are paid huge salaries.
Just like movie stars, they live extravagant lifestyles with huge houses and
cars.
Many people find their rewards unfair, especially when comparing these
super salaries with those of top surgeons or research scientists, or even
leading politicians who have the responsibility of governing the country.
However, sports salaries are not determined he or she holds. Instead, they
reflect the public support that successful stars can generate. So the notion of
“fairness” is not the issue.
Those who feel that sports stars’ salaries are justified might argue that
the number of professionals with real talent are very few, and the money is a
recognition of the skills and dedication a person needs to be successful.
Competition is constant and a player is tested every time they perform in their
relatively short career. The pressure from the media is intense and there is
little privacy out of the spotlight. So all of these factors may justify the
huge earnings.
Personally, I think that the amount of money such sports stars make is more
justified than the huge earnings of movie stars, but at the same time, it
indicates that our society places more value on sport than on more essential
professions and achievements.

It is generally believed that some people are born with certain talents,
for instance for sport or music, and others are not. However, it is sometimes
claimed that any child can be taught to become a good sports person or
musician.
Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
The relative importance of natural talent and training is a frequent topic
of discussion when people try to explain different levels of ability in, for
example, sport, art or music.
Obviously, education systems are based on the belief that all children can
effectively be taught to acquire different skills, including those associated
with sport, art or music. So from our own school experience, we can find plenty
of evidence to support the view that a child can acquire these skills with
continued teaching and guided practice.
However, some people believe that innate talent is what differentiates a
person who has been trained to play a sport or an instrument, from those who
become good players. In other words, there is more to the skill than a learned
technique, and this extra talent cannot be taught, no matter how good the
teacher or how frequently a child practices.
I personally think that some people do have talents that are probably
inherited via their genes. Such talents can give individuals a facility for
certain skills that allow them to excel, while more hare-working students never
manage to reach a comparable level. But, as with all questions of nature versus
nurture, they are not mutually exclusive. Good musicians or artists and
exceptional sports stars have probably succeeded because of both good training
and natural talent. Without the natural talent, continuous training would be
neither attractive nor productive, and without the training, the child would not
learn how to exploit and develop their talent.
In conclusion, I agree that any child can be taught particular skills, but
to be rally good in areas such as music, art or sport, then some natural talent
is required.

Some people think that parents should teach children how to be good members
of society. Others, however, believe that school is the place to learn this.
Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
A child’s education has never been about learning information and basic
skills only. It has always included teaching the next generation how to be good
members of society. Therefore, this cannot be the responsibility of the parents
alone.
In order to be a good member of any society the individual must respect and
obey the rules of their community and share their community and share their
values. Educating children to understand the need to obey rules and respect
others always begins in the home and is widely thought to be the responsibility
of parents. They will certainly be the first to help children learn what is
important in life, how they are expected to behave and what role they will play
in their world.
However, learning to understand and share the value system of a whole
society cannot be achieved just in the home. Once a child goes to school, they
are entering a wider community where teachers and peers will have just as much
influence as their parents do at home. At school, children will experience
working and living with people from a whole variety of backgrounds from the
wider society. This experience should teach them how to co-operate with each
other and how to contribute to the life of their community.
But to be a valuable member of any community is not like learning a simple
skill. It is something that an individual goes on learning throughout life and
it is the responsibility of every member of a society to take responsibility for
helping the younger generation to become active and able members of that
society.推荐阅读:雅思听力考试不集中怎么办?雅思口语考官在乎的得分点有哪些?雅思阅读的文章结构!短期雅思词汇量有可能吗?
