1. In the modern world, the school has become unnecessary for children to study. They can use Internet, which has wide information available to children. So that children can study at home instead of at school. To what extent to you agree of disagree?

Long distance education has existed for a long time, and the rapid development of communication technology enables it to improve greatly, even to parallel with traditional education. People’s opinions towards it vary.
People who are against internet education hold that traditional education is irreplaceable. For one thing, long distance education lacks face-to-face and heart-to-heart contact between teachers and children, which makes the teaching process difficult. For another, studying at home makes children egoistic while studying in a school teaches children team sprit, which is essential when they start working. Lastly, children are deprived of a great opportunity to socialize with peers if they do not go to school.
Nevertheless, I go for the long distance education. In the first place, the time, place, and courses of study are more flexible for children. They can arrange their courses according to their own schedule and skip the subjects they have already mastered well and work harder on those they are not very good at. I do not think children at school can enjoy these advantages. In the second place, so advanced the communication technology is, teachers and children can see each other through the PC camera and talk to each other on microphones, just like they were in a real classroom. Teachers can also make use of the vast updated information on the internet while children at school only have old-fashioned textbooks. In the third place, long distance education enables children who cannot go to school to receive fine education. For example, disabled children can get the same education as their healthy peers, which can have positive influence over the disabled life long. Long distance education also works for children who are not able to go to school because of the limited capacity of schools. All the facts lead to the conclusion that children can get better education at home than at school.
2. Nowadays, instead of going back home, many office workers go to night schools after work. Since they already have a job, why do they pursue further study?
We are living in what is called the age of information explosion, in which you can never learn enough. In many fields, new technologies and information boost out every day, you certainly will be left behind in your area if you do not renew the old stuff you learnt at school or colleges years ago. No wonder so many schools emerge for people at work to “recharge”-, i.e. to keep themselves informed of the newest trends and skills. As branches of learning and labour division become more and more specified in modern society, you have to learn more than you have already known, and that requires continuous study too.
Moreover, competition in modern society is keen. You always have to learn more than your competitors so as to stand out among hundreds of applicants or to remain among the top salesmen in your company. This is like going up stream in a boat: if you do not row hard, there is no hope for you to keep up with others, let alone surpass them, and if you do not struggle on, the water will take you backwards.
Lastly, learning can keep your brain active. Doctors say that if you keep studying, the chance of the deterioration of your brain’s functions can be lessened when you get old.
To conclude, learning throughout life is a must.
