Should students only learn from books?



1. Only books can provide people with the knowledge that makes
them educated.


2. The criticism that what students learn today is not adapted to
present-day society is utterly wrong because education can never be
seen only in terms of how useful the subjects are when students leave
school. We ought to evaluate education in terms of how much the
students enjoy those subjects and how much they mean to those
students.


3. Instead of being trained to be utilitarian
，
students should
be encouraged to do things for their own sake
，
for getting
satisfaction out of them rather than for what is achieved at the end.


4. Those with a good command of the knowledge provided in books
can adapt themselves better to their future life than those without.

5. Those who stress only practical skills and techniques and
ignore the function of books are short- sighted.


6. Only by urging students to read more
，
write more and do more
exercises can education be improved.


7. Being practical
，
many children leave school and start earning
money at an early age. Because of this
，
quite a large number of
children join the ranks of the illiterate in the country.


8. Without the knowledge provided in books
，
there is no point in
talking about training qualified personnel and fostering versatile
talents.


Counter-arguments



1. Education is a gradual extension of oneself. It does not only
take place in school buildings. It is a life-long experience.


2. Students should be taught how to live and how to get on with
one another. This is more important than reading and writing.


3. Writing
，
reading and arithmetic don't really matter. What
matters is that students should learn to understand the world.


4. Students are so overburdened with classwork and homework that
many of them do not enjoy good health.


5. Instead of offering students book- learning only
，
we should
encourage them to get to know society so that they will be more
adaptable to real life.


6. Many students are spoilt by our present-day
4




educational system. They may be top students at school
，
but they
are at a loss as to how to deal with practical matters.


7. Education is but a failure if it only produces people who are
unable to put theory into practice.


8. We should put right the tendency of stressing only students'
academic achievement and ignoring their moral and physical education.
Students
，
in their formative years
，
should have a chance to broaden
their outlook rather than feel compelled to work towards passing an
exam.


Should smoking be prohibited?


Argument



1. Smoking should be prohibited
，
for the World Health
Organization points out that diseases linked to smoking kill at least
2
，
500
，
000 people each year.


2. Scientific research had shown that the risk of developing lung
cancer increases with the number of cigarettes smoked per day and the
duration of the smoking habit
，
and it diminishes with the cessation
of smoking.


3. Smoking not only leads to lung cancer
，
but many other
diseases such as heart attacks
，
sore throat
，
headache
，
chronic
bronchitis
，
pulmonary emphysema
，
etc.


4. Smoking is not only harmful to the smoker himself (herself)
，

but also results in the deaths of non-smokers. Statistics show that
passive smoking is causing 3
，
000 to 5
，
000 lung cancer deaths a year
among American non-smokers.
