Writing Feedback / mix gender at schools - Good or bad? [2]

Some people think that it is better to educate boys and girls in separate school. Others, however, believe that boys and girls benefit more from attending mixed schools.

In recent years, we are bound to hear people from all walks of life discussing whether boys and girls should be co-educated at schools. Some suggest that boys and girls distract each other in adolescence which may lead to unnecessary conflicts, while others frown upon this opinion as they think that it offers a good chance for male and female students to better understand one another. Just like any rational individual, I firmly believe that males and females benefit more from attending mixed schools.

For a start, that the striking differences between males and females are undeniable. By studying together in a same school, they can complement each other and learn from each other. Conspicuously, it is easy for juveniles to develop illusions and wrong impressions towards the opposite sex. Studying together helps them better understand one another. Meanwhile, the adult world is made up of males and females, so should the schools be. Teenagers are the future pillars of the society, it is of paramount importance for schools to let them know their social role so that they can easily adapt to the outside world.

Nonetheless, some people advocate that mixed education ruins the harmony between different genders. This seems to be a valid argument. No one can deny that there are, indeed, numerous conflicts between males and females due to the incompatibilities of their personalities, interests, physical conditions, etc. Yet, this should not be the excuse for us to evade the importance of interactions between males and females. On the contrary, co-education is beneficial to psychological development. Many psychological and physiological problems vexing an adolescent student can be readily solved in a co-education school. Teenagers can learn to be more mature by getting along with the opposite gender.

By and large, I once again reaffirm my position that boys and girls should not be educated in separate schools. It is indisputable that students can benefit more from socializing with the different genders in schools.

Writing Feedback / Causes for increasing average weight of people; 'unwholesome fast food' [2]

In some countries the average weight of people is increasing and their levels of health and fitness are decreasing.
What do you think are the causes of these problems and what measures could be taken to solve them?

In recent years, the soaring general weight of citizens as well as their plummeting standards of physical condition and well-being in some countries has become a thorny issue. People have been attaching greater weight to this problem. In this essay, I aim to explore this complicated phenomenon from diverse perspectives, identify the relevant contributing factors and bring up some effective solutions.

To my mind, an array of integrated factors contribute to this complex incident, and here I would explore only a few of the most important ones. To begin with, it is an inevitable fact that the quickening tempo of modern lifestyle is responsible for the increasing average weight of people. As the matter of fact, the preference of takeaway fast food has become increasingly prevalent for the sake of convenience. The overcooked and unwholesome fast food is high in fat and salt, which is consequently causing people to gain weight and develop an unbalanced eating habit and diet. Moreover, people begin to neglect the importance of having enough exercise owing to the increasing workload. Conceivably, all the predictable health symptoms are then emerged, such as obesity and severe heart disease. Therefore, it is surely unquestionable that the increasing average weight and decreasing health standards of citizens can be attributed to the fast pace of the society.

Confronted with such a pressing issue, people come up with a variety of constructive countermeasures. Personally, the following are worth mentioning. Firstly, public activities such as anti-fast food and "Sport for all day" campaigns should be sponsored by the government to promote the public awareness of the health issues raised by eating too much fast food, make sure that everyone is a conscious preserver. Secondly, schools should also be contributing to solving the problem. It is of paramount importance that schools are taking the responsibilities to educate the youngsters or adolescences the significance of eating less fast food and to maintain splendid physical conditions. Last of all, individuals should as well carefully monitor their own health conditions, enable themselves to be the real masters of their bodies.

It is high time that both the government and original citizens should make concerted efforts to solve the problem of decreasing health levels of people. When everyone is fully aware of the severity and takes feasible measures, a blissful globe can be conducted.
