Should Students Wear the school Uniform ? for:1. School uniform is identification for students. It is a respect to the school. A uniform represents the school. A person wearing a set of uniform represents that he/she is a student.2. Wearing uniform can show the tidiness and discipline of the school, decrease discrimination among peers. 3. Further more, school uniform can keep out some unnecessary disturbance on students studies. It can save the students time on choosing what to wear to school. 4. School is a place for study, not a place for fashion. Students should concentrate on their study but not their clothes. 5. Uniform can lower some unnecessary problems. Students will not compare themselves on the brands or styles of their casual clothes. Every student is fair in the school no matter how they are different in background.6. Uniforms help to create a strong sense of belonging to a particular community.7. Also, uniforms give students a good team spirit. They make students feel united because they wear all the same things. 8. Lots of people are trying to copy some starsstyle of clothing, even students do it too, but some stars clothing is always inappropriate for students to wear. Wearing uniform can avoid it.9. By having everyone wear the same uniform, students are easily identified. For example, when on an excursion, if someone gets lost, they can be easily recognized and can find their group by their distinctive uniforms. This helps the teachers and the school to control and look after the students.Against: 1. There should be more freedom for students to wear casual clothes. 2. Uniforms are expensive and ugly3. Everyone has different styles, everyone is unique, It disables students to show their styles and all students will look dull and indifferent. No impressions would be made, and everyone would look boring and inflexible.4. Its more important to make the students to be active than to make a nervous atmosphere in campus. 5. Policies like this maybe will limit the creative and personality of student. Every day student faces the same things, and there is no space for student to develop the imagination and creativity. 8. Is it a good idea to control the worlds population growth?For: 1. In modern times, a family with few children, or even with no children at all, is still a happy family. 2. With fewer children in a family, parents spend less time on household chores and concentrate more on their own interests, and their children enjoy better material and educational opportunities than those in bigger families. 3. The most pressing problem created by the rapid increase in population is a shortage of food. At present a large proportion of the existing population is not getting enough of the right kind of food (e.g. people in India, Ethiopia, etc. ). 4. The rapid rise in world population is creating problems for all countries on earth because there simply arent enough resources. 5. Both rich and poor countries of the world should take united action to deal with the population explosion. Otherwise, there will be more people fighting for less land and fewer resources, and the future will bring poverty, misery and war to us all. 6. Population increase in developing countries has wiped out the material benefits that they have achieved. 7. Statistics show that where the population rate is high, peoples living standards are low. This means, peoples living conditions cannot improve unless there is a reduction in the increased rate of population. 8. Overpopulation creates a shortage of schools, teachers, hospitals and doctors. 9. Overpopulation causes problems in housing and employment, especially in cities. 10. Just imagine how much better life would be if the world population were cut by half! Against:1. People in agricultural areas need more children to help them with the work in the fields. 2. Whether to have children or not is a private matter and nobody should interfere with it. 3. It is unfair to blame all the problems on the increase in population. It is those greedy manufacturers and businessmen in developed countries that make the heaviest demands on the worlds resources and cause the most pollution. 4. If population control were a must, it should be carried out in developed countries as well because a baby born in the U. S. will use in his lifetime 30 times more of the worlds resources than a baby born in India. 5. Children are the most important thing in life. With fewer children around, life will be dull, meaningless and unhappy. It is incredible for a couple to have no children at all. 6. Children in a family give the parents a sense of responsibility and pride. They are very important to the stability of a family. 7. Population control does greater harm than we realize. For instance, if the one child policy is still in practice in 100 years, people then will have little idea of kinship ties, for most of them will have no brothers, sisters, uncles, aunts, or cousins. 8. With the governments family planning policy in operation we now have a generation of only child families: most of them are arrogant, selfish, and spoilt. 9. A big family offers children a chance to learn how to cope with and care for other people. 10. Children in big families have the chance to compete with each other, in terms of their manners at home, their study at school, their performance at their place of work, etc. Older children usually have a great influence on the younger9. Does the younger generation know best?For: 1. The young are better educated and more broad-minded. 2. The young enjoy a lot more things than the old: they have money to spend; they are less dependent on their parents; they grow up more quickly; and they enjoy more freedom. 3. The young question the values and assumptions of the older generation and they are right. 4. The young enjoy more freedom and have a stronger sense of responsibility. 5. The old tend to settle differences by conventional politics and violence. 6. The old do not have noble ambitions and only strive for material possessions. 7. The old are unable to keep away from the rat race, in which they have lost touch with the most important things in life. 8. The old can learn from the young. Young people are more devoted to their friends. 9. The young know how to enjoy work and leisure and not to be inhibited. 10. The young live in the present rather than in the past or future. Against:1. The young do not assume their responsibility; they evade it. 2. The young have too much money and they are spoiled. 3. The young are only interested in themselves. 4. The young seek material possessions like clothing, cars, etc. They do not wish to work for them. 5. The young should feel grateful to the older generation, who have created a good life for them. 6. The old provide the young with a good education and money to spend. 7. The older generation fought in the two world wars. They faced real problems, but the young have an easier life. 8. Young people have too much freedom and have no sense of morality. 9. The older generation is too kind and soft with the young. A tougher policy is needed and might work wonders. 10. Young peoples outlook on the world is very bleak and they are skeptical of everything. 10. Does television play a positive or negative role in the modern world?For: 1. Television is now playing a very important part in our lives. 2. Television is not only a convenient source of entertainment, but also a comparatively cheap one. 3.

A lot of television programmes introduce people to things they have never thought or heard of before. 5. Television has been good company to those who do not work, like housewives, lonely old people, etc. 6. Television provides enormous possibilities for education, like school programmes via closed-circuit television. 7. Television provides special broadcasts for those in TV university, or open university. It also offers specialized subjects like language teaching, sewing, cooking, painting, cosmetics, etc. 8. Television does the job of education in the broadest sense. Instructive programmes achieve their goal through entertaining the viewers. 9. Compared with the radio, everything on television is more lifelike, vivid, and real. 10. Television may be a vital factor in holding a family together where there are, for example, economic problems and husband and wife seem at breaking point. Against: 1. Television is a great time-waster. 2. Television makes the viewer completely passive because everything is presented to him without any effort on his part. 3. Television is to blame for the fact that children take longer to learn to read these days and barely see the point at all of acquiring the skill. 4. Television takes up too much of our time. We no longer have enough time for hobbies, entertaining activities, and other outside amusement like theatres, cinemas, sports, etc. 5. People rush home, gulp their food, which is often as simple as sandwich and a glass of beer, and start watching the TV programmes. 6. The monster, i.e. television, demands absolute silence and attention. No one dares to open his mouth during a programme. 7. People have grown addicted to television, often neglecting the necessary and more important things like meals, sleep and even work. 8. A lot of parents use television as a pacifier for their children. They put their children in front of the set and dont care whether the children are exposed to rubbishy commercials or spectacles of violence as long as the children are quiet. 9. What the viewer receives from television is nothing but second-hand experience. He is completely cut off from the real world. 10. Television prevents people from communicating with each other. It has done a lot of harm to the relationship between family members. 11. Does fashion contribute anything to society?For: 1. A good appearance may help people make a better impression in social contacts. 2. When people are getting old, they should pay more attention to their appearance. 3. The way people are dressed helps them to preserve a sense of their own value and personality. 4. Fashion adds spice to life with its rich colour, variety, and beauty. 5. Men and women follow fashions in order to please each other and themselves. 6. The world will be a dull place to live in if people always wear clothes of the same style and colour. 7. Mass production makes well-designed clothes cheap, available to everyone. 8. The fashion industry is an enormous one. It provides employment for people like textile workers, designers, shopkeepers, etc. 9. The fashion industry has helped industrial research in the sense that a lot of new materials, like nylon, rayon, etc. have been made to meet the demand of the consumers. 10. Being well-dressed is of psychological importance because confidence in ones appearance leads to confidence in ones success in life. Against: 1. People sometimes look odd with the so-called fashionable hairstyles, make-up, and dresses. 2. Top designers in Paris and London are dictatorial, for they lay down the law and the whole world rushes to obey. 3. Fashion goes like this: one year, one thing; the next year, the reverse. 4. People are so va
