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-arguments1. 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 dont 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-dayeducational 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?argument1. 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.5. an american scientist estimated that smokers who average a package a day for 20 years will lose about eight years of their lives.6. smoking is an expensive habit, for a smoker who consumes 10 cigarettes a day will have to spend at least 40 yuan a month.7. smoking has a bad impact on the psyche of the smokers. on the one hand, smokers realize the bad effects of smoking and are persuaded from time to time to give up smoking. on the other hand, many of them can hardly resist the temptation to smoke. hence they often lose confidence in themselves.8. children exposed to parental cigarette smoking are put at a higher risk of developing lung diseases later in their lives.9. smoking not only pollutes the air but also makes the streets dirty, for some smokers flick the ash off their cigarettes and throw cigarette ends everywhere.10. smoking speeds up the process ofaging and helps cause wrinkles on peoples faces.counter-arguments1. smoking should not be prohibited, for cigarettes give a vast number of people a good deal of pleasure a lot of the time.2. nicotine can produce a tranquillizing effect during high emotional and shock situations, and, therefore, helps to calm people down.3. smoking counteracts the decrease in efficiency that typically occurs in boring, monotonous situations.4. smokers can improve their performance in complex situations while smoking.5. smokers help increase the revenue of our country.6. smoking kills no more people than epidemics or traffic accidents.7. most non-smokers spend a lot of money on snacks, a habit costing as much as smoking if not more.8. if smoking is eliminated, a lot of people in the tobacco industry will be out of jobs, and that will create many social problems.9. facts have shown that if a chain-smoker suddenly quits smoking, hes more likely to have lung cancer than those who keep the habit.10. everybody has the right to keep his or her habit. smokers are no exceptiondoes parental permissiveness affect childrens development?arguments1. the excessive permissiveness of present-day parents is doing more harm than good to children and society as well.2. children should develop the habit of working and living independently and, meanwhile, practice the virtue of being filial to their parents.3. children who have a surfeit of happiness in their child hood often emerge like stodgy puddings and fail to make a success of life.4. the fact that young people nowadays are self-centred, indifferent and inconsiderate of others is largely the outcome of parental permissiveness in their childhood.5. parental authority in a family helps a child to develop his character healthily.6. parents should

have got a generation of spoilt, self-centred brats with no respect for their elders.10. the spread of juvenile delinquency in our age is largely due to parental permissiveness.counter-arguments1. more care for children is not the same as permissiveness to them.2. the truth is that parents nowadays do not take enough care of their children and often neglect their development because the parents are only interested in their careers.3. parents are not at all permissive to their children. violence often takes place in families in which children are abused.4. only a relaxed family atmosphere can help the physical and psychological growth of children.5. to let children do what they like contributes to their independence and competence in their adult lives.6. it is unfair to blame parents for thespread of juvenile delinquency. there are a lot of other causes involved.7. many cases show that children leave home and become members of street gangs just because they can not bear authoritarian control over them by their parents.8. strict discipline does not always work in terms of developing childrens personal qualities. too much pressure on children leads to rebellion and other extreme actions.9. parents are not justified in using violence to keep discipline and maintain their authority over the children.10. children are human beings, too. they need to be protected instead of being frequently scolded or physically abused.does the younger generation know best?arguments1. the young are better educated and more broad-minded.2. the young enjoy a lot more things than the old: they
