Question 60

What change would make your hometown more appealing to people your age? Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.


Answer

A few weeks ago, I met a friend of mine. He was walking with his fiance. He will get married with her in October. Such as the example above, many people of my age are married. It is a good idea to appeal the people who are married. I suggest a plan that our town make facilities for babies. I will write some of the reasons below.

First, when people get married, they will have a baby. A town which has facilities for babies is attractive for couples working together. They are busy, and it is hard to both work and raise the baby. The facilities help them to take care of the baby. Especially, they are helpful for nuclear families. In our social structure, both parents need to work together. They can take a rest for a year when they have a child. However, it is sometimes hard practically. In case of that, the facilities will help them strongly.

Moreover, our town will be active when many couples move there. People of my age are 20s. They actively work in their business. Our town needs the power of young generations. The power will attract other people, too. For example, older generations will be stimulated. They try to work such as younger generations. Idealistically, both help each other. As the first step, to make baby facilities is useful.

Finally, we hand over our town to the babies in the future. They will grow up, then work and get married. For the future of our town, the babies are valuable. Our society needs to make up the town for them. Yet babies can not do anything by themselves. They have to depend on the parents. If the parents need help, our town should help them. The baby facilities can be one of the helps.

As a result, to make facilities for babies will appeal to my generation. Many of them want to work even if they have a child. When it is hard, our society should help them. As written above, there are advantages. The facilities will help our town itself.

Question 59 success in life comes from taking risks or chances

Question 59

Some people believe that success in life comes from taking risks or chances. Others believe that success results from careful planning. In your opinion, what does success come from? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.


Answer

We want to succeed in our life, but not all of us can do that. Therefore, people analyze why successful business person could succeed. There are differences between them and unsuccessful people. In my opinion, careful planning is inevitable to succeed in our life. We plan that we skirt risks, search a lot of information and analyze rivals' business.

First, to skirt risks is important for our success. Business follows risks when we try to earn much money. It is said that high returns come from high risks. The relationship is connecting each other. For our strategy, we should calculate the risks in order not to fail. Only one failure will give us huge damage. It is sometimes devastating. To avoid the damage, we need to plan strictly. As long as the plan is excellent, we will succeed andor at least we will skirt damages.

Second, to consider the best way needs careful planning. It is hard to find out the best way. We investigate and get information for the purpose of the success. Without the search, we can not decide what is the best way. We might perform the worst way without considering it the worst. Yet, if we know what is the worst way, we can throw it away it. We can plan more successful way. Statistically, the proportion to succeed will be higher.

Finally, to analyze rivals' business is important. We compete with other brainy people. To succeed means to win them. Of course, how our rivals work influences to our business. We can get information from our search. However, it is not enough. The ability to analyze it is necessary. We expect how they will try to work. These investigations will help that Wwe can plan our business dominately.

To sum up, planning is important to succeed. We gather information and analyze it to know the best way. To skirt risks is also important for our business. We must not depend on our fortune.

Question 58 Some people like to do only what they already do well. Other people prefer to try new things and take risks.

Question 58

Some people like to do only what they already do well. Other people prefer to try new things and take risks. Which do you prefer? Use specific reasons and examples to support your choice.


Answer

To try new things and take risks is valuable because people should not forget to challenge in their life. However, I like to do only what I can do well. Rather, I want to increase my skills more. It is also profitable in our life. I will write some of the reasons as following.

First, people have limited time in their life. Our life looks long, but is short practically. We can accomplish only one thing. Rather, it is enough if we can do that. A person who succeeds in a field is laudable. We should remember it is hard to complete a field. We do not have so much time to do. I want to dedicate to complete a field in my whole life.

Second, the ability to learn new things is lower when people get older. As you know, it is easy to learn new things for youngsters. They can absorb new knowledge and skills quickly. The ability is remarkable for adults. Yet I am not so young to obtain new things. I can not skill up what I want to do if I perform many things. When the level is higher, it is more difficult to be more sophisticated. We are required to be more concentrated to the field.

Thirdly, it is hard to skill up in only one field. Every field has its own history, and many people struggled in the history. One person can not complete everything in the history. For example, I like to play chess. I do not want to play other games. If I were a specialist of chess, I would not care to play other games. However, it is hard to be a specialist. This is the reason I want to play it rather than other games.

To sum up, I prefer to do what I can already do well. I want to use my limited time to increase to skill up. The ability of new things is not so high in my age, and to skill up in one field is difficult. To be a specialist is attractive for me.
