IELTS 12 - WRITING TASK 2 - TEST 6

Nowadays, in some countries, young adults account for the larger part of their population. There is a lot of controversy about the advantages and disadvantages of this situation. Further, it raises the questions, what kinds of population policy should be applied in each nation? And, is there an ideal population structure for all contries?. From my perspective, there are more benefits than drawbacks for countries with a young population structure. As a young Vietnamese adutls, I consider my country as a prime example. Our situation has a number of advantages. Firstly, a large number of young citizens ensures a strong labour force, which is very important to the growth of gross domestic product (or GDP in short). According to a 2016 study of Hanoi National University, the young work force contributed approximately 70 per cent of GDP in Vietnam.

ETHAN FROME

By Edith Warton Chapter 1: BEGINNINGS Winter in Starkfield If you know Starkfield Massachusetts, you know the post office there.

Some people think that letting children choose their everyday decisions will create a selfish generation, who only think about their own benefits. In contrast, opponents of this idea argue that children should decide their own matters, so they can gradually learn about taking responsibilities. How much freedom parents should give to their offspring has long been a controversial topic. In my opinion, there should be a balance. One of the major reasons is any extreme measures could often lead to dire consequences. If parents are overly indulgent, and allow their children to do whatever they want, their youngsters begin to believe that they are the center of the world, which means they no longer care about anything but their own desires. Over time, when these children grow up, and leave their homes, it would be extremely difficult to live in any society with that attitude. In this case, the parents harm their youngsters, and the community, which they live in, albeit unintentionally. ...
