Many opinions are stablished regards the inversement of money in museums or sport centers. This essay will argue if it is worthy that the authorities spend money in sport centres or in museums.
On the one hand, museums are an excellent source of entertainment. In adition, it educates visitors as it provides high quantity of cultural information of different sections such as history, biology and art. On the othe hand, museums are not very popular due to the fact that not everyone is keen on these as each museum shows a specific sector. Otherwise, finding material to expose in museums is extremely harsh and expensive because they are wired and have high historical value.
Secondly, sport centers make people be fit. This means civilians with better look and healthier. Furthermore, doing exercise prevents inhabitants to catch deseases, helps them to relieve stress and improves their humour. Estadistics show that countries with sport centres have a higher life expectancy that countries with fewer sport centres. Another advantage is that sport centres make pople sociabilisate as these are meeting institutions.
In conclusion, the government must invert money in sports centres than in museums because museums utility is poorer than sport centres'.

Pink Floyd-The Wall
We, in Argentina, often rely on
education to solve most of our social problems. We blame education, or the lack
of it, for many of them. Consider the huge success (described in the text
below) of the song “Another brick in the wall” which claims “we don’t need no
education” and compare it to what you think about education.
.In my point of view, Argentina
needs to educate people in a correct way. This is reflected in the high amount
of adults receiving a social economic plan without working because of their
lack of education. So I think that education is fundamental in the type of
society we live.
Explain the title of the song “The
happiest days of our lives” considering the lyrics and the movie scene.
When we grew
up and went to school
There were
certain teachers who would
Hurt the
children in any way they could
By pouring
their derision upon anything we did
And exposing
every weakness
However
carefully hidden by the kids
But in the
town, it was well known
When they got
home at night, their fat and
Psychopathic
wives would thrash them
Within inches of their lives
It's a cycle of cruelty and oppression. The teachers are abused by their
husbands, so they take it out on the kids, where it, in turn, eats away at
them. The title is extremely sarcastic. While your childhood and school days
are often said to be the happiest days of your life, they obviously weren't for
Roger Waters. Considering the school system in England, especially at that
time, that's no surprise.
Argumentative essay about the song "Another brick in the wall"
This essay is
about Pink Floyd’s most successful song, “Another brick in the wall”. The aim
of this essay is argue that the song is resistant as it demonstrates how the
education system is turning out children that are conformist and how the Band
rejected that system.
To start
with, Roger Waters wrote the lyrics of this song. When he was five months old,
his father was killed in World War II which had a profound effect on his life.
His mother, a teacher, moved the family to Cambridge, where he met the other
members of the band while studying architecture in London, after various
changes, these five members would eventually become the band, Pink Floyd.
Waters attended the Cambridge High School for Boys which has an outstanding
academic level. Roger’s opinion of this school is: ‘the regime at school was a
very oppressive one’ and that ‘kids who are susceptible to bullying by other
kids are also susceptible to bullying by the teachers’; ‘There were some who
were just incredible bad and treated the children so badly, putting them down
all the time, never encouraging them to do things, just trying to keep them
quiet and still and crush them into the right shape so that they could go to
university and ‘do well’.
Waters left
the band in 1985 because he believed Pink Floyd, the band, had run its course.
After a legal dispute he lost the legal right to retain the band name but held
on to the rights of ‘The Wall’. In 1990 he held a concert for charity at the
Berlin Wall, called ‘The Wall, Live in Berlin’, this was a fitting tribute to
the collapse of the Berlin Wall and the fall of communism in late 1989.
In order to
lyrics, the first two lines contain double negatives, ‘don’t need no’ which
should mean the opposite. However in this case I believe, he is reinforcing his
message, which is that the education he received was not fit for purpose and
that education should allow for a greater freedom of expression. He criticizes
the teachers for their ‘dark sarcasm’ meaning that they are guilty of mocking
the children in an evil way and he pleads to the teachers to ‘leave the kids
alone’, which means that the children are mentally and physically abused. The
last line of the verse states that ‘you’re just another brick in the wall’, by
this he indicates that we are all part of a system, where bullying is endemic
in society.
To conclude,
this essay proves that this song is resistant as they challenge the system of
education that is promoted mainly by fee paying schools, which is to make
students conform to a specific model, in order to get into university.

Ethics essay
The
discussion of if it is possible to take ethical decisions when basic
necessities are not met is very controversial. Humans’ instinct can lead to break
ethics in extreme situations, but it is possible to humans to control their
minds and act ethically in those situations?
On the one hand, some people are presented to do
immoral actions and not allowed in order to reach a goal, for example, money,
power, popularity, etc. These people probably would tend to make unethical decisions
in extreme moments.
On the
other hand, other people care for the rest and try to take moral decisions no
matter it these decisions make their way harder.These people tend to be more social and to
make ethical decisions in extreme situations.
To
conclude, from my point of view, it is
possible to take ethical decisions in hard situations but the ones who does not
take them, cannot be criticized because they would probably die if they would
take into consideration ethics.
