2、50 words.model answer:Nowadays most children regularly play games on a computer or their television. These games have become more violent over the past few years. In fact, many parents worry about this and the effect these games are having on their children. Some are concerned that playing violent g
3、ames might encourage them to co me aggressive in real life. What we need to establish is whether or not this is actually true.First, it may help to look back at the games that children used to play many years ago before the invention of computers. In those days children would probably have played po
4、pular board games such as Monopoly or chess, or they may have played card games or some type of outdoor sport. These sports or games would probably only have encouraged children to become more competitive rather than violent.However, throughout history children have always played fighting games with
5、 toy or pretend weapons. Even now many parents will buy a toy gun or sword for their child. Why do we never read reports in the media about the impact plastic weapons could have on children? Perhaps this is because the link between play fighting and actual fighting is not very strong.In conclusion,
6、the way children play games has changed with the Ames but the ideas behind those games have actually changed very little. Just as playing at soldiers did not increase violence in the past, I believe that playing computer games will not lead to al crease in violence in the future. I think that if we
7、looked more closely at life in our major cities then we would find there are many other possible causes for the increase in crime and violence.(284 words)The birth rate in most developed countries is predicted to begin to fall over the next 50 years.

8、e population in most developed countries will be aged 65 and over:What effects will these predictions have on developed countries if they prove true?

9、rite at least 250 words.model answer:Nowadays, most people worry about over-population and living crowded cities. However, it is predicted that we will have the opposite problem by the year 2030 when one third of the population will be aged 65 or over and birth rates are predicted to decline. What e
10、ffect will this have on our society?By 2030 the percentage of the population aged 65 or older will have risen significantly, to more than 30%. This means that fewer people will be working, and therefore fewer people will be paying income tax. In the future it may be necessary for governments to incr
11、ease the official retirement age to 70 or even older. When today s-year-olds are in their sixties it is unlikely that they will enjoy the relaxed lifestyle that today s older generation can expect when they give upwork. Government will therefore need to make sure that this older generation is health
12、y and fit enough to continue working.However I believe the biggest impact will be on the younger generation. In 2030 the younger generation will need to work much harder to support the large number of older people. If this trend continues then it is possible that our entire culture will change. For
13、example, most marketing companies today try to target the younger generation with their products and advertisements. If the majority of the population is older then this will change and companies will begin to target the older generation instead.So, what can be done now to prevent these problems? Firstly, I believe that governments of developed countries should find ways to encourage people to have larger families and increase the birth rate. Secondly, I believe that they should encourage migration from developing countries so that the problems of Over-crowding can be solved.(292 words)
