Censorship

In the UAE, the internet succumbs to the censorship by Etisalat. This system blocks the bad things or the sites which contain sexual or violent those some people support this censorship and some are against. This essay, will discuss both sides of the topic for and against censorship.

First, I will talk about the people or the countries which support open or don’t have censorship for the internet sites. So, the people in those countries can access on any sites they went. Whether or not, it contains some bad things which have a big effect especially on children. Censorship irritates many people because in many countries people like to do anything they went with no bother also, they take it as liberty.

There are many countries around the world in favor of censorship. One good reason for censorship is that some people sell tomography and don’t care about children. So, censorship will block those sites and it will be impossible for children to see them. There are illegal materials available on the internet and people aren’t able to download those things. So, the government has signed agreements to protect intellectual property. Yet another point, some people aren’t educated enough to see some sites, which could destabilize their society.

In conclusion, both sides have advantages and disadvantages. However, I strongly believe that the internet should be censorship that because, the net contains many things which could affect you and your child’s behavior.

Examinations

As we know all students over the world have to do exams to know how much they understand the materials. But, the examinations are different from one place to another and from one school to another. In this essay, I am going to discuss both sides of the topic if the exams are a fair assessment or not.

First, I want to talk about why some people don’t support taking exams. They think and believe tests make the students nervous and stressed about the exams. Another reason is some exams come from other colleges, which means different teachers fixed the questions. So, the students will face some difficulty because many students are used to solve the questions that their teachers use.

On the other hand, there are some who people prefer taking exams. One reason is to know in which level they are. With no exams we can’t know if the students understand enough or not. Another reason is the GPA. The GPA depends on the exam’s results so, it is important to have exams to know in which level the students are. Yet another reason is that students will be able to refresh their knowledge. That’s because they review the information for the test which will support their knowledge.

In conclusion, there are advantages of both for using or not using tests. However, on balance, I believe the arguments in favor are stronger than those against.

Then farm numbers slightly increased between the period from 1910 to 1935, but farm workers slightly decreased until 1930 it reached 12.5 million and slightly increased to 13 million in 1935. From 1935 to 1945 the farm workers number sharply decreased to 10 million also the farm numbers declined but less to 6 million.

Have you ever considered the fact that every year millions
of animals undergo painful death as a result of scientific research? While most people think animal testing is necessary, others are upset by what they see as needless suffering. This essay outlines some of the arguments for and against animal testing.
First, let’s look at the advantages. One very positive point is that many medical treatments and procedures have been developed from such experiments. Since animals share many features with humans, scientists use animals to test the safety and effectiveness of newly developed drugs. Moreover, there is a large supply of animals. Some, such as mice and rats, have many babies, and there is no danger of extinction for these species. Finally some advocates think that animals are less valuable than people. If there is a mistake, it will not cost a human life.
However there are also a number of arguments against animal testing. Perhaps the most important is that animals may be suffering unnecessarily. Critics do not believe that every new drug needs to be tested on animals. Furthermore, some feel animal testing is ineffective; they point out that many drugs still have to be withdrawn from the market despite extensive testing. Last, some campaigners would like to see alternative used. They feel more humane testing is possible and, too, that we could rely more on organ donors.
To conclude, we need to ensure that animals used for experimental purposes do not suffer much pain. Although some animal testing may be unavoidable at present, treating our fellow creatures mercifully will demonstrate our humanity

Drug’s problems and solutions

Drug abuse is dangerous problem that affects all levels of society and countries by causing crime, and broken families, not to mention the high expense needed to combat this problem. This essay will look at this global issue and outline possible solutions.

Drug abuse causes multiple problems for countries and communities. The most serious of these problems is health effects. The health of person who takes drug is very week and at stake more than any one. That because, the drug demolish the nervous system and the immunity of person who take it. A further problem facing taking drug is the relation shape between him and the people around him like his family, friends, and also with his colleague. He fall short with all of them because, drug make the person hostile and like to be lonely.

Nevertheless, the menace of drugs can be fought. Education is the first battle. That’s by teaching the children about drugs and it’s dangerous. This could be at home by parents and in school by instructor. A second approach is to make a caginess hospital for drug users to cure them by secret. That because, most of them are a fear the scandal.

In conclusion, although the problem of drugs may seem impossible to eliminate, there are concrete steps that can be taken to weaken the hold of drugs on society. We should be one hand the fight the drugs.
