Q.The expression “Never, never give up” means to keep trying andnever stop working for your goals. Do you agree or disagree with thisstatement? Use specific reasons and examples to support youranswer.
Some people say that we can produce nothing if we give up. I cannot agree with this argument, because it overlooks some disadvantages of itself and advantages of the counter. I try to explain them one by one.
First, if it is impposible to reach the goal, choosing to never give up leads to disappoint youawfully. There is the risk that we cannot get to the right result in theory. That would hurt us so muchthat we cannot stand it.
Second, if we sometimes choose to give up, we can try more subjects or themes than sticking to one thing. For example, in my major, economics, much theme exist. Though I can keep trying foreverfor one theme, I choose to try as many themes as possible because I might be able to find more exciting and interesting affairs. In addition, what seems to be absolutely different can be sometimes clues for reach the goal. Leaving from it once might lead us to the goal.
In conclusion, I disagree with the "never give up" strategy. We should try other possibilities, if there exist.

Q. Some students prefer to study alone. Others prefer to study with agroup of students. Which do you prefer? Use specific reasons andexamples to support your answer.
Some people say it's better to study individually than with a group, however, I cannot agreewith this opinion personally. I can find some advantages in studying with a group of students. I explain them one by one.
First, studying with my friends, I can obtain new information and knowledges. Because the quantity of knowledges obsessed by one person is limited, I can utilize much knowledge cooperating with my fellows. As a result, with my group, my study would proceed more efficiently than doing alone.
Second, I can maintain stability of my mentality. Study can be sometimes much hard and heavy works. Then, some people lose their mental health. There are many students commiting suicidein graduate schools. Exchanging with my friends makes me relax and remenber that I have much support.
In conclusion, as mentioned above, I prefer to study with my friends. I think it is importantfor sustainable studying to work efficiently and in good mentality.

Q. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Universitiesshould give the same amount of money to their students’ sports activitiesas they give to their university libraries. Use specific reasons andexamples to support your opinion.
Some people claim that universities should concentrate on academic research and study,therefore should not pay for something except academic affairs. But, I think this opinion overlooks some points. I try to explain one by one.
First, from the view of the whole society, it is recquirement from society that universities actively support students' sports activities. There are many successful players who graduate university in almost all sports. Now, univeresities are precious provider of good athletes. In addition, if they doesn't provide place for sports, students who have talent for some sports must decide thier direction, sport or academy when they graduate high school. But thanks to the support by universities, they can keep both of possibilities.
Second, I consider this problem on position of universities. If universities give much money to the sports activities, they may be able to make strong team of some sports. Then, the team will join famous game and adavertise the name of the university. As a result, they would can get more students.
In conclusion, I think universities should give as much money to thier students' sports activities asto thier university libraries.

Q. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? All studentsshould be required to study art and music in secondary school. Usespecific reasons to support your answer.
Some peaple say that students in secondary school should not be required to study art and music for concentrating on some region. However, I disagree with this opinion for the following reasons.
First, art and music is very basic part of culture. If they learn about art and music, they can exchange with others through talk about such topics. I think that their lives will bocome more fruitful.
Second, there is no reason for omit such subjents from curriculum. Students should not concentrate on some propers but study wide range of subjects because wide knowledge can make progresses. For example, John. M. Keyens, the famous economist, was majored in philosophy of science in his college, and he said knowledge gained in study of philosophy supported the establishmentof the economic theory. Therefore, I claim that learning widely is important.
What subjects are essential for children is very difficult problem. I think it is most important to consider widening their possibility when dealing such problem. In conclusion, I agree the opinion that all students should beentitled to study art and music.
