EDU: Online VS Traditional


      Some people say that online education is an excellent alternative to
traditional education. But others people believe that virtual education
can not substitute traditional one.

      In today`s world online education is rapidly increasing thanks to development
of computer technology. So some people assume that such education plays
a more significant role than education at school, whereas others doubt that
traditional education might be replaced.in my opinion, virtual education is not as effective as traditional one. Firstly, students do not have an opportunity to communicate with their teachers and
classmates face to face. They are isolated from one another that has a
negative influence on their character. Their social and communicative skills
are poorly developed. Secondly, at class pupils can exchange ideas and
thoughts. Therefore it makes easier and more interesting to master subjects.Moreover, while studying online, students become addicted to a computer.On the other hand, supports of virtual education are sure that it provides an easier and more comfortable way of obtaining knowledge, as there is no need to attend classes and spend time to get to school. Also they claim that pupils are not restricted in a schedule that allow them to distribute time more rational.It might be true, but if students are free from a schedule, they will spend more time themselves. So it will badly affect studying.In conclusion, I am strongly convinced that traditional education should not be substituted. However, it is possible that both education will be mixed.

STREET MUSICIANS

     There are many opinions about street music. Some people think thatit is the way of earning money ; others say that there mustn't be anyamateur performances at the streets.


      Street music has always been very popular among people. The issue
about street music is contraversial: some people are fond of it while
others are sure it should be banned.
      In my opinion, street music brings us a great deal of pleasure and
favour. To begin with, it gives us a chance to listen to live music for
free of charge while walking on the street. Secondly, it is a great
possibitity for creative people to introduce themselves to public and,
probably, to become famous. Finally, some musicians earn money by
making street perfomances,so it is their only way to exsist.
      Nevertheless, there is a widely spread opinion that street music is not
accessible. People claim that this music is rather noisy, it annoys
them and distracts them from work. I strongly disagree with this
opinion because this music is often very nice and a smile appers on
my face when I hear it somewhere. Everyone can afford visiting
street perfomances and it is a really interesting leisure activity.
      To sum up, street perfomances are not just a way to earn an extra
penny for singers, but it is a good way to spend your free time with
pleasure.

School Uniform

     At many schools, it is compulsory for pupils to wear a uniform.
to school. This much better than letting students wear their own clothes. What is you opinion?


     Our parents wore a school uniform many years ago. In the beginning
of 21 century this rule was cancelled. Nowadays many schools want
to return old tradition. Is it good or bad?
     In my opinion school uniform is good way for pupils to be organized.
They should understand that on the important meetings you must
wear formal clothes. Furthermore, uniform makes pupils equal in
material sense. Children from poor families won’t think that they are
worse than others. Also your parents won’t spend much money for
clothes every year, because school orders uniform for all pupils at
once.
     However, many people think that the same uniform doesn’t feel
yourself individual personality. Besides, uniform often has dark color,
for example black or brown, and it can spoil the pupil’s mood.
Moreover by the end of the year uniform becomes untidy and not
pleasant to look at it.
     In conclusion I want to say that pupils must wear strictly uniform,
because it makes them to study better.

Sports: Watching VS Participating

     Some people think it's important to do sports regularly whileothers would rather watch a sporting event on TV.


     Nowadays many people relate to sport as to an integral part of their
lives. However, not all of them do sport themselves as they prefer
watching it on TV.
In my opinion people should do sports on a daily basis as it is utterly
beneficial for their health.
     Firstly, sportsmen are said to have good immune system as a result
of their regular exercise and this enables them to stave off getting
sick. What is more, for people who are complaining about being
overweight due to sedentary lifestyle, sports seems to be the only
way to get into shape and lose a couple of kilos. Finally, when people
lead an active life they do not have time to get bored and
consequently sports may become an excellent tool to entertain
yourself and boost your energy level.
     Nevertheless, they opponents claim that watching sport events on TV
brings enough excitement and they do not need to be involved in it
personally. Additionally, while doing sports one may get injured and
end up in hospital.
     Although they allegations may hold some water but it is also true that
only by doing sports we are able to strengthen our body and improve
our health.
     All things considered, while I agree that watching sports may make
an amusing pastime but regardless of this every person should do
some sports as it is a prerequisite for good health.
