These students feel that they can get a better education abroad than at a local university. However, is this really true? On the one hand, many people believe that when you study abroad, you get more than just an academic experience. Firstly, you learn to understand another culture and might also learn to speak a foreign language. You will also meet people from all over the world. In addition, some foreign universities have got subjects that are different from local universities. On the other hand, there are many difficulties when you study at a foreign university. For a start, it may cost more. Foreign universities may be expensive and it isn't always cheap to live abroad. Moreover, you could feel isolated and lonely as you are not near your family and friends. Besides, it's not always easy for foreign students to get used to a different way of life. This could affect how well you do at university. In short, although there are advantages to studying abroad, in my opinion you can get a great education at local universities. What is more, it will probably be cheaper and you will be close to home! 3 WRITING A DISCUSSION ESSAY PRESERVING OLD BUILDINGS Most countries have got some old buildings and structures that are historically or culturally significant. However, does this mean that all old structures must be preserved? On the one hand, not all old buildings are worth preserving. Firstly, this is expensive and sometimes the money is needed for other, more important projects, such as improving living conditions or building homes. Moreover, some old buildings are simply not worth preserving. For example, some homes built half a century ago may be impractical by today's standards. On the other hand, it's clear that certain old buildings are important. The structures may show us something about our country's architectural history, or be national landmarks. Some of these buildings may also be of cultural or religious significance, such as old churches, temples and mosques. Furthermore, many of these structures are tourist attractions and tourism is economically important to a country. In conclusion, although progress must also be a consideration, I believe important buildings of our past should be a part of our modern world. For this reason, in my opinion, efforts should be made to preserve old buildings and structures whenever possible. 4 WRITING A DISCUSSION ESSAY CHECKLIST Organisation Spelling Punctuation Grammar Word order Connectors of addition, contrast and example 6 WRITING A DISCUSSION ESSAY CONNECTORS OF ADDITION, CONTRAST AND EXAMPLE Some connectors of ADDITION are: Also // as well as // in addition, // moreover, // furthermore, // what's more, Some connectors of CONTRAST are: On the one hand, // on the other hand, // but // however, // although // even though // despite // in spite of // nevertheless // while Some connectors of EXAMPLE are: For example, // for instance, // such as 7
