compare yourself now and 5 years ago

When I was in secondary school,I usually tried imaging how I will look like in the future.5 years pass over and there are many differences on me.Maybe it make some people get difficult to recognize me,but no matter what changes I get,I am me and there are both differences and similarities.
5 years ago and now I don’t have many differences,especially in my appearance.My hair is an example.It is still curly althought it is shorter a bit.There are many people advised me to stretch it out but I didn’t agree.I like it and I think it’s very special.However,there is one thing I want to change but I can’t.It is my color of my skin.It was dark and now it is still dark.Sometime,it make me feel less confident because most of people around me have fair skin.One more thing that haven’t changed is my optimist.I remember one time,I had an accident,my arm was broken.The doctor said that it took me 3 months to recover.Every one seemed to pity for me.They encouraged me to keep health,but I didn’t know why they must be pity.I thought that there’s no problem,just an broken arm,even I thought I could recover after 1 month.Actually,it’s impossible but this thinking helped me more optimistic,anyway it’s lucky because there were no part of my body was injured.
Despite the similarities,there are many differences.5 years is a long time for me to mature.Now,I am a student,I live far from my family and I must learn how to live independently,take care of my self,so my characteristic have changed a lot.I am no longer passive as I was in the secondary school.I take part in many social activities such as green summer,or activities of my class and faculty.It’s a good opportunity for me to make friends and be more confident.That’s why now I become more and more active,even talkative.However,what makes me really confuse is that I am shortsighted.When I was in secondary school,I studied very hard.I hardly went out except for going to school.Now,some days,I go out from 7a.m and come back at 9p.m.The days I don’t go out,I stay at my rent-house and watch films or read novels.I am very lazy in studying,so there’s no reason why I am shortsighted.The changes in my characteristic make me excited.It’s good for me,and I also hope that my eyes is not more serious shortsighted.
It is interesting to recognize how I have changed through 5 years.There are many differences from my appearance to characteristic.It makes me realize that I am muturing.Now,I am just 19 years old.In the future,there will be many other changes,and I will try to change my self in to a more perfect person.

Argument,counter argument and refutation

Wild animal should not be kept in the zoo
Argument 1:
Living condition in the zoo is not as good as natural environment.
In the zoo,wild animals are kept in narrow cages that are not swept and cleaned regularly.In addition,food is not enough for the developing of wild animals.
For example,a tiger can eat 27kg meat per day,but in the zoo,people can’t supply much meat like that.
The most important thing is that animals also need freedom,so natural enviroment is the most suitable place for them
Argument 2:
Keeping wild animals in the zoo is very dangerous.
The cage,especially cage for dangerous animal,is not enough safe.In some zoos,the cages are just surrounded 4 sides.In above,there are nothing to prevent the animals to escape from cages.It’s very dangerous if one of animals escape from the cage,he or she can attack any one because there are always many people in the zoo.In media transportation usually have some news about wild animals attack people.
For example,in Dai Nam,Thu Dau Mot,Binh Duong province,there were a case that tiger killed a zoo keeper and injured another one.
Counter argument:
Many people have argued that keeping wild animals in the zoo is a way to preserve them from extinction as well as to maintain rare animals race.
Refutation:
The environment and living condition in the zoo is very difficult for wild animals to give birth.

should parents spank their children?

There are many different ways to educate children but it is sure that parents just spank children when there is no way because no one want to hurt their children.Some people say that “spare the rob and spoil the child”,but I think that parents should not use spank as a punishment for children.
People should not spank their childrend for many reasons.First,It cause many bad effects on children,especially when they are young.In this age group,children don’t have much perception.They absolutely believe in what they are studied from teachers as well as parents,so if they are spanked whenever they do something wrong,it can make them scare,don’t dare to do anything and live closely.It is really not good for a young children.In addition,because of scaring,they will study how to tell lie.Unintentionally,parents make children learn a bad habit instead of educating them to become better and better.One more effect is that it make a distance in relationship between parents and children.Young children like to talk with their mother and father,but spank can make them scare and don’t wan to share feeling and any thing with parents.It will be difficult for parents to understand as well as educate children.
Using spank as a punishment is really not good for not only young children but also pubescence.It cause bad behavior of children.In this age,there are many changes in their psychology.When they were young,spank maybe make them scare and obey,but pubescent age is different.They trend to rebel,so using spank to educate them is useless,even it can make them hate instead of respect parents.It’s more serious if they are spanked in front of their friends or strangers because it harms their self-respect.More over,in this age,children are easy to be influented by living environment and usually immitate what adult do,so spank can make children become violent,and when this children grow up,they will be burden of society.
Even with many of effects,some people say that spank is necessary because it make children understand that when they do something wong,they must be punished,so they must have responsibility with what they do.This may be true;However,this doesn’t mean spank is good.The important thing how we use and when we use this way to educate the children.If possible,parents just spank children in situation that is really necessary.
Educating children is not simple,finding a good way to educate is more difficult.No matter what it is,spank children is not unique way.There for, people should find resonable ways to educate their children instead of spanking.
