Q: " Teenagers should not be allowed to play online games." Comment

I personally feel that teenagers or any person of any age should not be banned from playing any online games. Games are sometimes rather addictive, but it is also a form of rest and relaxation. When someone feels bored, they will most probably turn to the computer or television if they are at home. So, electronics are very important and to make these devices more entertaining, games are need. So i see no wrong in playing online games.

However, there is also a dull side of playing online games which support the above phrase that teenagers should not be allowed to play online games. Online games are mostly addictive and they sometimes do cost money. Online games consume a lot of time especially RPG games or multi player games which needs time to train up your character. Sometimes, violent games can also cause one to be more violent. For example, games like grand theft auto can cause some people to feel like as though they are still in the virtual world when they are in the real world. They might do some violent things in the real world and the effects from the game from the real world would be different.

In conclusion, i feel that there is no need for teenagers to be banned from online games. However, i feel that self control is needed and if certain teenagers are unable to control their time and emotions or actions, there is a need to banned that certain group of teenagers. Otherwise, online games should be allowed for teenagers to enjoy them.

Q: Traffic woes are part and parcel of a bustling city. Discuss

I feel that traffic woes are part and parcel of a bustling city, however, there is a possibility that if everyone is more polite and courteous on the road, and there would be less traffic woes.

Traffic woes are mainly caused by inconsiderate drivers who drive too fast, those who cut into other people’s driving lane and many other reason which can cause a disagreement.

So, is it possible to have fewer traffic woes, but it is not really possible to have no traffic woes. In a bustling city, there are many vehicles and some are driving at leisure pace while some may be rushing off for an event or work in which they will speed and they would normally be rather impatient.

Some people prefer to drive slowly, while others like to drive fast. Some are unsure of where to do and some may even do illegal turns. But what so ever, these are only some of the minor disagreements.

In conclusion, traffic woes are part and parcel of a bustling city. There are simply too many vehicles and different styles of driving on the road. It is not possible for everyone to be courteous on the roads and it is also not possible for there to be no traffic woes. However, fewer traffic woes is possible.
