There are many reasons for both sides of the question, "Should we have printed
advertisement'?" Many people have strong views and feel that ads are nothing more than
useless junk mail, while other people feel it is important source information.
There are some reasons why we should have advertisement in newspaper and
magazines. One reason is ads give us information about what is available. Looking at ads we
can find out what is on sale and what is new in the market. This is an easy way of shopping.
Another reason is that advertisement promotes business. When shop owners compete against
each other the buyer saves money, more people come to their shops and they sell more goods.
On the other hand, some people argue that ads should not be put in newspapers and
magazines for these various reasons. Firstly, ads cost the shopkeepers a lot of money to print
onto paper. Also some people don't like finding junk mail in their letter boxes. Ads also
influence people to buy items they don't need and can't really afford. Ads use up a lot of space
and a lot of effort has to be made the ads eye-catching.
After looking at both sides of issue, I think we should not have advertisements because
they cost a lot of money and take up a lot of room in the papers. I don't think I find some of
them interesting. I mainly disagree because it's junk mail.

A. She/he wants to take side

6. Muslim’s Headscarf
The right to freedom of religion is enshrined in the UN charter and considered by many
to be a basic human right. Some religions require special diet, others prayer at specific times.
Why should a religious mode of dress receive as much protection as these other aspects of
religious freedom?
Many Muslim women view the veil as a means to protect their modesty and privacy.
Just as we would not force any women to be seen in public in her underwear if she did not feel
comfortable doing so, why should a woman be forced to show her hair if she does not want to?
Modesty is a personal judgement, some are comfortable in the smallest bikini while others
prefer a lot more clothing. No one but the woman herself should make that decision.
Muslim women are not the only ones to feel coerced over their mode of dress. Most people are
affected by the societal norms surrounding them. Fashion trends could be seen in exactly the
same light as religious traditions.
Banning head coverings is only likely to provoke a more extreme reaction among
highly religious communities. Framing laws to ban only Islamic forms of dress could be
considered an attack on one religion. Feeling under attack could cause the Islamic community
to close off into itself. They could set up religious schools where their children can dress as
they want them to and not mix with children from other faiths. These effects could never be
good for the integration of society and would further the influence of extremists.
Internationally, the perceived attack on Islamic values would inflame wider Muslim opinion,
feed conspiracy theories and add to the dangerous feeling that there is a clash of civilizations.
Intolerant schools make up problems as an excuse for not allowing Muslims freedom of
religious expression. In a multicultural society, students should be aware of the different
religious practice and cultural traditions of their classmates, and be taught to understand and
respect these.
Based on the above discussion, the government should not banned Muslim’s headscarf
as a part of school or office uniforms.

Social media has become an integral part of modern society, revolutionizing the way people
communicate, share information, and interact with each other. However, its impact is a subject of
intense debate, with proponents highlighting its numerous benefits and detractors pointing out its
negative consequences.
On one hand, social media has significantly enhanced connectivity, allowing people to stay in touch
with friends and family regardless of geographical barriers. It has also provided a platform for
marginalized voices to be heard, facilitating social movements and activism. Additionally, social media
serves as a valuable tool for businesses to reach and engage with their target audience, leading to
increased brand visibility and revenue.
On the other hand, the pervasive nature of social media has been linked to various adverse effects on
mental health. Excessive use of platforms like Instagram and Facebook has been associated with
feelings of inadequacy, anxiety, and depression, as individuals compare themselves to curated, often
unrealistic, representations of others' lives. Moreover, the spread of misinformation and fake news on
social media poses a significant threat to society, undermining trust in traditional media and
contributing to polarization and societal unrest.
In conclusion, while social media offers undeniable benefits in terms of connectivity and information
dissemination, its negative impact on mental health and society cannot be overlooked. It is crucial for
individuals to strike a balance in their usage and for policymakers to implement measures to mitigate
the harmful effects of social media.

 Uniforms have been a long-standing tradition in many schools around the world, with
proponents arguing that they promote discipline, equality, and a sense of belonging. However, the issue
of whether high school students should be required to wear uniforms remains highly debated.
On one hand, proponents argue that uniforms create a sense of equality among students,
regardless of their socioeconomic background. By eliminating visible markers of wealth or fashion,
uniforms can help reduce peer pressure and bullying based on clothing choices. Additionally, uniforms
can promote a sense of unity and belonging within the school community, fostering a more focused
and disciplined learning environment.
On the other hand, opponents argue that enforcing uniform policies restricts students' freedom of
expression and individuality. High school is a time for students to explore their identities and express
themselves, and uniforms can stifle this process. Furthermore, the financial burden of purchasing
