There are many different types of music in the world today. Why do we need music? Is the traditional music of a country more important than the international music that is heard every where now a days?
--------------------------------------------------------
Every one needs music for recreation. Music is a very creative hobby. Many good musicians play music as a part of their profession many play for the sake of hobby.
Music creates enthusiasm among soldiers and sports persons that is highly rewarding.
Music in circus makes animals to show several tricks correctly. Many acrobats are able to perform acrobatics safely and correctly with the help of music. This performance is not possible in the absence of Music.
When some big celebrity passes away, on the all the channels of television and radio; a sad tune of music is played and that communicates sad happening. In a way music is a means of communication too.
World comprises of many countries and in every country there are several sects. Every country has its national anthem that is popular and well known to the entire population. Besides that, type of music differs from sect to sect. The music well-known only within members of one particular sect is called traditional music or folk music. The music known to many sects of that particular country can be called broadly music of that country.
Also, music that is popular and known to many countries can be termed as International Music. Like Western Music, Rock-n-roll, Rumba-Samba, Disco, Fox-trot, Jazz, Pop, Light music, Classical Music and many more. Obviously these will be more popular and enjoyable as it is understood at a macro level by huge masses.
Summarizing, music is for the enjoyment and the music that can be very well understood and enjoyed is the best music. Hence traditional music is more important than the international music. However for entertaining cosmopolitan groups, International music shall be ideal.

“Building A New Restaurant”
It has recently been announced that a new restaurant may be built in your neighborhood. Do you support or oppose this plan? Why? Use specific reasons and details to support your answer.
----------------------------------------------------
I am against the idea of having a restaurant in the neighborhood. The reasons being, a restaurant would make food in bulk all the time. This process of cooking would cause enormous amount of smoke from the barbeque that can cause tremendous amount of inconvenience to the neighbors. Especially to people who are allergic to smoke and smells. Those who are asthmatic may get bouts of breathlessness. Smoke may induce permanent bronchitis and cough problems to the nearby residents. Especially older residents shall be highly inconvenienced.
Improper waste disposal may cause smelly and bad surrounding. This pollution shall be harmful to the neighboring residents. Loud music and noise made by crowds of customers may disturb the peace and give rise to a noisy environment thereby causing noise pollution too. This shall disturb in the studies of the school and college going boys and girls of the area.
Of late trend and the fashion are eating fast food and junk food. A restaurant shall promote these which are injurious to general health of the public. Especially youngsters shall be most tempted and go for that at the cost of their precious health, time and money and that is undesirable.
Restaurants must be built away from residential area to facilitate tourists and visitors and for a part population comprising of students and job doers coming from other countries or towns who have no other facility for food.
In conclusion building a restaurant in the neighborhood shall do enormous harm and no good hence must be disallowed.

“An Item for International Exhibition”
If you were asked to send one thing representing your country to an international exhibition, what would you choose? Why? Use specific reasons and details to explain your choice.
----------------------------------------------------------------
I would like to send Sankheda furniture in the international exhibition to represent my country India. Use of manmade items gives boost to handicrafts and cottage industries. I am from India and in this essay I shall describe all about the said man-made furniture that are extremely popular all over the world, and are extensively used in other advanced countries too.
In India, there are many areas where wooden handicraft work has been done traditionally since last many centuries. But the handicrafts of Sankheda in Gujarat – India, have a unique identity among all. The name and fame has spread not only in India but all over the world. This furniture is very popular and exported to countries like UK, USA and Canada. Today there are very few skilled artisans and artists left who produce great, artistic furniture with historical values. Indians feel proud to continue centuries old traditions. The Sankheda carpenters have kept up with the age of automation as far as some of their tools are concerned but not at the cost of compromising on the inherent quality of the art. Several families in this village are involved in satisfying the growing demand for the furniture, which has made the village famous. Some export directly to the clients while others supply through export houses.
In nutshell, India has a rich heritage and tradition of arts and crafts and the diversified culture has spawned a variety of art styles with distinctive identities found in different regions of India. In India there are many handicraft workers whose sole means of livelihood is the earnings they get by sale of their creations.

“Dormitories versus Apartments”
Students at universities often have a choice of places to live. They may choose to live in university dormitories, or they may choose to live in apartments in the community. Compare the advantages of living in university housing with the advantages of living in an apartment in the community. Where would you prefer to live? Give reasons for your preference.
================================
I prefer dormitory to apartments. Dormitories are meant for accommodation of students within the campus or nearest. Students are allowed to stay here at a reasonable rent in shared accommodation or single seated room depending upon availability.
The main benefit of dorms is nearness to college that helps punctuality, nominal rent hence cost effective, most dormitories have common mess that facilitates supply of breakfast, meals, snacks and tea or coffee. Furthermore library is easily available that facilitates studies. In addition one can enjoy indoor games like Badminton, Table-Tennis, (Ping-Pong) and Caroms etc in his or her spare time.
Living in a dormitory provides increased motivation to go to class. If one witnesses a group of students going to the class, he or she also get ready fast and go to class instead of crawling back into the bed. Moreover, fellow students would knock on your door when it’s time to head to class, or to help you with notes or homework if you miss a day or two or don’t understand what’s happening in a particular course. This is highly beneficial.
The disadvantages of living in apartment are it may be far from the college thereby one has to spend more money and time to attend classes. A minor problem in transport would result into student’s absence from the college. Also there is none with whom you can share about your missed classes, lectures, homework etc. And lastly depending on the nature of your neighbors, they might seem to be downright unfriendly because they are all busy with their business and have no time to talk to you..
In conclusion, during student life, one must prefer dormitory to apartments.

“Do Things Though Not Enjoyable”
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? People should sometimes do things that they do not enjoy doing. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
I am in agreement with the statement that sometimes people should do things they do not enjoy doing.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
For example early morning hours one gets sound sleep. No one would not like to getup from the bed that too particularly in winters. But if one overcomes this inertia he or she may wake up in early morning hours, go for a long morning walk or Jog and may do exercises that are good for physique. Not to forget “Healthy Body Has a Healthy Mind”.
Secondly shoe polishing is another boring job. People don’t like shoe shinning job and keep on postponing. When they to go to some nice party or a gathering of sophisticated people, every one else they find with shinning shoes they come across and face a great embarrassments and humiliation. So why not polish shoes regularly though not enjoyable. Shinning shoes reflects impressive and dynamic personality.
Thirdly one more tiring job is wiping dust from the desktop (Personal Computer) and car or scooter. Many people avoid these jobs not because they don’t love their car or desktop pc but because they find job to be uninteresting and bore. But if one can overcome this feeling and clean those every day; probably then chances of computer malfunctioning due to dust accumulation can be eliminated, thereby efficiency of an individual increases. Identically in the case of car, the life of the color and car increases and the car always shines bright.
In the nutshell every one must sometimes do certain things though that they don’t enjoy. By this one becomes highly disciplined and develops feeling of accomplishment that enhances his or her self confidence level.

“Do Athletes & Entertainers Deserve Million - Dollars Pay”
Some famous athletes and entertainers earn millions of dollars every year. Do you think these people deserve such high salaries? Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.
----------------------------
I think athletes and entertainers do deserve the large quantum of money they receive.
The biggest factor is dedication of the fans. If spectators didn’t spend so much time watching and reading about sports, athletes wouldn’t be paid as much. The fans go to all these sporting events and pay so high amounts of money for tickets and for team merchandise etc. Event tickets are pretty expensive. The profit comes from the fans and owners of the teams. Furthermore in sports there are many health hazards involved. Athletes are constantly involved in injuries and risk factor is very high. Hence athletes do deserve big money I strongly feel.
Similarly there are actresses and actors or say entertainers that get paid very high per movie. This is because of their hard work during filming. Many stunts involve high risks of injury to the actors. While filming of an Indian movie Coolie in 1982, a noted film actor, Amitabh Bachchan was seriously injured during the filming of a fight scene with one of his co-actor. He was hospitalized with a ruptured intestine for months; the extent of injury was so severe that the actor was very close to death. A remarkable outpouring of support and concern by his fans and the nation in general followed. After recovering, Amitabh Bachchan resumed shooting for film Coolie, and it finally released with a great success.
In conclusion, athletes and entertainers exert very much; risk element in the profession is high, besides; they have to be fit for performing by staying healthy physically and mentally. Hence I feel they deserve big money.

“Disruptive Students Make Negative Influence”
Disruptive school students have a negative influence on others. Students who are noisy and disobedient should be grouped together and taught separately.
Do you agree or disagree. Give reasons for your answer.
(Write minimum 250 words)
-----------------------------------------------
I do not agree that children of same school be grouped and taught separately because some of them are disruptive. In this essay I will narrate the pros and cons of splitting up of groups and condemning of a particular group of students.
No doubt in a mass of students, some may be with indifferent temperament and attitudes. However a school’s basic function is to educate and correct their attitudes and behavior. Secondly forming groups and teaching separately may cause a feeling of disparity among students that is unhealthy and undesirable. Furthermore formation of groups may result into development of feelings of inferiority and superiority among students that is quite detrimental to either group. Feelings of inferiority with the time turn into Inferiority Complex. Such Inferiority Complex Syndrome is a very serious condition and it is most difficult to treat. Similar is the case with feelings of superiority and thus Superiority Complex Syndrome.
In many cases genius boys or girls may behave indifferently because they pickup the things very fast and thereafter they find the class to be very slow moving and boring. There can be many reasons for a particular behavior of student that must have intervention and correction by parents and educators both. If necessary, expert psychologists and psychiatric intervention can be sought. But forming separate groups sounds wrong.
In conclusion forming separate groups and teaching separately may not be the right solution to the problem. Splitting into groups shall do much more harm than any good. Disruptive students must be dealt with love and care during the process of education.
