what a better way to attain this than to celebrate a national holiday

denser/higher security presence this can be avoided
11.Exacerbate racist attitudes

12.In order to curb the menace of drugs, the authorities need to take stringent
action against the widespread sale and purchase of illegal drugs in every
country. Drug dealers must be given exemplary punishment. In addition, the
governments should make people well aware about the undesirable

consequences of drug use on their health, career and social life. Those who
are already addicted to drugs need to be entirely rehabilitated so that they
can function smoothly in the society.

15.Nowadays, most businesses concerned primarily with improving and

pushing products at all cost, therefore neglecting the strain this strategy puts
on their personnel. I believe it is of vital importance to restrain the excessive
work load. I also think employers should pay more attention to organizing

31.It is true that vast amounts are spent on space exploration for apparently
little gain while people suffer from terrible poverty around the world
32.Supporters also point out that it is the human nature to strive to discover the
unknown and that we can progress in all ways by unlocking the secrets of
the stars

33.Because world population tends to increase more rapidly than the food
supply, a ontinual strain is exerted upon available resources. As an inevitable
consequence, wars, famines, epidemics, and other disasters are cited as the
usual limitations of population growth
Thanks to recent advances in scienceand technology, including improved
agricultural methods and great strides in medicines, some of the limiting

factors in population growth have been lessened, with obvious results.

International organizations have put forward several recommendations so as
to alleviate the problems of overpopulation, including an increase in food
production,general economic development in target areas, and a decrease in
birth rates. Most experts agree that it will be necessary to combine all three
recommendations in an effort to affect a lasting solution

The profound effect the prevalence of shopping undoubtedly has on an
individual is that it nourishes the self-esteem. An individual may find the the
social contact particularly gratifying and this makes people come out of their
shells and become more extrovert. Purchasing something, as well as
knowing that you are financially able to buy a product, gives people more
sense of self-confidence

40.On the other hand, it is argued, hardly anyone can find an appropriate job.
That is to say, occupations seem not perfect as a high-paid career often goes
along with bad working environment and vice versa. Teachers in
mountainous areas and those in cities are good opposite cases in point. On
the contrary, it would be totally wrong to believe that there are no excellent
occupations in the world today. These are dream jobs which offer generous
salaries and an extremley engaging workplace, yet, these require exclusive
talents or a prolonged hard-working period. Actors and singers are correct
examples of the former. Finally, believing and keeping track on your chosen
path would be necessary for a successful individual wellbeing.
Overall, I would like to reaffirm my position that everyone need to work
hard on the desire to pursue self-satisfaction in their careers.

52.Specialities and cultural standards are being put to test. Skeptics worry that
the invasion of international standardized goods may threaten the
conventional ones, while some are considered inappropriate from the
traditional perspective. Apparently, this is inevitable since customers tend to
keep pace with the current trend and abandon deep-rooted values. In
addition, there is high probability that national identities will be blurred
because of international trade. Lastly, the monopoly on certain major
products will pose a challenge to some countries and thus, the economy,
particularly the export branch, turns out to be less profitable than it is

expected to.
53.If nations can balance between the demand of its residents and the

In the modern world, we frequently no longer rely on food that has been
grown locally, but we have become accustomed to buying produce from all over
the world. While this trend has some clear benefits to consumers, I would argue

that overall transporting food over long distances is a negative.

285.
The strongest argument against importing food is environmental. Studies
have shown that transport and the use of fossil fuels is one of the leading
causes of global warming and climate change. This means that if we want to
lead a greener lifestyle, we should be trying to minimise transport and this
includes the unnecessarytransport of foodstuffs.
