Topic: It is generally believed that some people are born withcertain talents, for instance for sport or music, and others are not. However,it is s child can sometimes claimed that any child can be taught to become agood sports person or musician.
Discuss both these views and give your own opionion.
The issue of whether certain talents such as sport or music are inborn or nurtured has sparked off an intense debate. Although some people argued that everyonecan become excellent in sports or music if properly trained, regardless oftheir nature conditions. I personally believe only those with nature gifts have the possibility to be successful in the specific fields of sports or music.
To begin with, it is manifest that everyone is born different physically and psychologically due to the programming of DNA, which leads to the fact that some people are genetically superior in certain areas while others are not.That those taller parents are more likely to have taller children is a good case in point. Similarly, children whose parents are musicians tend to perform better in singing or instruments playing than others. Hence, nature talent does exist.
Furthermore,specific fields like sports or music necessitate varied body conditions,thereby to some extent enabling gifted individuals more easily to attain success. Specifically, evidence abounds in the respect that tall basketball players with quick response ability and flexible moving skills are more likely to perform well in a team than their short counterparts. Besides, according to a survey conducted by Chinese Sports Association, more than 95% basketball professionals are over 1.80 metres tall. Therefore, it is evident that talents play a pivotal role in achieving success in certain arena of music and sports.
Admittedly, individuals would not succeed merely by talents. Gifted individuals, if not scientifically trained, turned out to be mean. Only through hardworking does talented peoples’ potential be exploited and developed, thereby contributing to their future success.
To conclude, I concede that training plays a positive role in becoming a good sports person or musician. Nevertheless, I am convinced that talents should not be neglected due to the existence of genes and specific requirements of varied fields such as sports and music.
Topic: Some people believe that there should be fixed punishments for each type of crime. Others, however, argue that the circumstances of an individual crime, and the motivation for committing it, should always be taken into account when deciding on the punishment.
Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
The issue of whether there should be fixed punishments or flexible ones has sparked off an intense debate in the realm of legal system. From my perspective, it would be a fair and practicable means of crime punishment, if apply flexibility within certain fixed range of punishment for each type of crime.
Obviously, advocates of fixed penalty raise this opinion based on the fundamental principle of justice. The absence of unifying and equal punishments for crime,more often than not, is likely to cause an increasing number of corruptions and even a devastating disaster of the legal system. Given the free decision power of crime penalty, judges and jury are exposed to various temptations which aim to lure them to make biased conclusions. And this, in turn, would destroy the public belief in legal society.
On the other hand, opponents argue that it would be unfair to apply fixed penalty as every individual crime has different motivation and exerts varied-degree influence even though they are classified into the same crime group. Take an extreme case for example. If a hungry mother who has stolen a piece of bread for her dying child for the first time were punished as severely as a repeated theft, it would be unconvincing for the public to understand.
To conclude, from my perspective, I believe a perfect way to solve this dilemma is to combine these two approaches. In other words, it means to build a legal system which limits the punishments level in a fixed range for each type of crime while within the range, flexible punishment degree is permitted depending on the factors such as motivation of crime.
