It has been argued that learning history is not necessary and pupils have to be focused on
other subjects in the school. Some schools have done the rules in order to prepare pupils
to be ready for their future lives and for the world of employment. However, in my
personal opinion, history is important to be learned in the school because of some
reasons.
Firstly, it has been known that history plays a big role in human life. To create a better
generation in the future, pupils have to understand the history. As a common said that
people who do not know the history, they will do the same mistakes what their ancestors
did. Therefor, schools, as the place where pupils learn a lot of things, should provide this
subject.
Secondly, there some other benefits of learning history. It can stimulate pupils to be
proud of their nations. It cannot be ignored that in studying history pupils will learn about
the past of their nations. It helps them to know more their nations and increase their
nationalism. Because of this reason, history should not be removed from school's subject.
The last one is that history can enlarge pupils' insight. Take the history of an inventor or a
successful person in the past. By knowing this, they will be more interested in creating
something. It is believed that when they know about this, it will motivate them to study
and work harder. It is clear that history has been an important thing.
Besides all of the reasons mentioned above, it is also better to make pupils' lives balance.
They are too young to think clearly about their future and the world of employment. In
conclusion, history is important to be taught in the school and it should not be removed.

Getting a job has become highly competitive and students should be able to use the skills that
they learn at school and university in their workplace. In recent years the school curriculum has
changed to include subjects that will be useful later on in life such as Typing, Computers,
Marketing, Bookkeeping, Foreign Languages etc.
First of all, we need to think about the main aim of schools. In other words, is their aim to
provide general education to students or to provide specialist knowledge. The world of
employment is constantly changing and some subjects have become more important than
others. For example it has become very important for employees to be fluent in more than one
language. It is for this reason that schools wish to produce employable adults rather than

focusing on subjects that are viewed as looking at the past such as history.
History however should not be neglected as a school subject as it serves its own purpose. It is a
useful subject in that it informs students about the past, their roots, reminds them of mistakes
that shouldn’t be repeated, their heritage, civilizations, relationships with other countries etc.
Let’s not forget that this subject is important to students who wish to become History teachers
or to study related subjects like Law and Archeology.
I believe History should be a core school subject up until a certain level and then it should be
optional, giving the opportunity to those wanting to follow the subject more closely a chance to


do so. Priority should be given to current subjects so that students can be better prepared for
their future.
Sample Answer 1:
People believe in that several ways can help to improve public healthliness. They are grouped
according to these measures that they support. Some of the people says that more number of sports
facilities result in more public health. Also, they assert that this way is the best. However, others claim
that increase in the number of sports facilities slightly affects the public health than other measures
which are more important. In my opinion, not the latter but the former group's point of view is more
realistic and worth to believe.
To begin with the former, they choose the best way to increase healthliness level as increasing the
number of sport facilities. Although, sport is a good way to stay healty, making a bulk of sport facility is
not enough to encourage people do sport. For example, there lots of sports centers around the city
charging in annual basis and open until midnight, but there are not enough regular member. Most of
the members started in full excitement to join each activity, but could not afford to do what they
promised. Actually, why this situation arise usually has many reasons but the point is that only sport
facilities are not enough to encourage people do sports and become healthy.

The latter opinion, which is more realistic, claims that more important other measures are required to
improve public health rather than sprots facility. During our lifetime we changed our lifestyles much.
Especially, people give different priorities to the ways which affect their health than before. These ways

can be categorized mainly into three groups such as eating habits, working styles and living area. First,
people eat much more junk food than before affecting their health worstly. Then, working conditions
become hard than before which also change healthliness level to the negative sides. Finally, living
areas are not clean enough to be health now. Thus, priority has to be given to those three ways to
make them good for human health, but not to sport facilities.

To conclude, people may have different thoughts about how to increase public health. Some of them
insist on increasing the number of sport facilities is the best way but others do not agree with them.
Although, sport is an important task for human health but solely it is not enough for improvement.

Sample Answer 2:
To improve public health some people suggest that the sports can play a vital role. It is said that
“Healthy mind is in a Healthy body”. By increasing the number of sports facilities we can create an


environment of courage, sportsmanship, and tolerance. The minds of raw youth can also be directed
towards healthy activities through sports promotion.

However, some people believe that sports facilities alone are not sufficient to improve public health.
There are many socio-economic factors that gravely affect the public health, such as water &
sanitation, rampant population & pollution, lack of hygienic manners and worst law & order situation.
These factors are need to be address to improve public health.

In my opinion, in a country like Pakistan, where people are living under the “shadow of fear” due to
prevailing terrorism in the country. Speaking of flourishing poverty, inflation, and unemployment –
availing sports facilities could be a luxury. And then there are vast majority of areas deprived of basic
health facilities, where one doctor is available for thousands of people. Sports can play a role but only
if people are content with their lives.


There is a dire need for government to take solid actions to improve the general well-being of the
people. Firstly, it must improve the security situation in the country to give peace of mind to public.
Secondly, it must improve water & sanitation system, and must put serious check on pollution increase
and should take steps to reduce poverty, illiteracy and unemployment. Thirdly, the society must
improve general hygiene level to have positive impact on overall public health. [ by - Amna Arshad ]

Sample Answer 3:
Public health has been always one of the sophisticated issues in each society and over last several
years, there have been done lots of efforts by governments to improve public health in some countries.
However, some believe that extending sport facilities in each corner of the country can has a deep
effect on this matter; some other opine that other ways would be more appreciated to have a healthy
society. So this essay has tried to cover both of mentioned views and then will suggest one best
strategy to increase health indicators.
Availability of sport facilities can make a situation that anyone in any place can do exercise and
undeniably it affects some parameters of public health in a society. Put another way, these days
people can easily find gems near their houses and they don’t need to waste time and cost for going to
some specific areas to do exercise. By contrast, over last years, people should spend time for
mentioned purpose and most of times they don’t attend to do exercise as they find it difficult because
of the shortage of sport facilities.

However, making sport facilities in each streets or residential areas can have a bit effect on public
health, this cannot encourage people to do exercise lonely. Hence, public awareness about the role of


exercising on health would be considered besides extending gems. For example, Media should
concern more about the public health and broadcast some suitable programs to show the importance
of exercising on physical and mind health. Also, there should be held several meeting in schools and
universities to invite people to go to gems by describing its benefits.


I think, therefore, if people know that exercising is such a long term investment as they don’t need to
pay for serious diseases in older ages, they would be interested in using sport facilities; however,
enough sport facilities should be constructed in each part of cities and villages. [ by - Milad Rahimi ]

Sample Answer 4:
A group of people believe that by adding more sport facilities in the community, it will increase the
public awareness about healthy lifestyle. On the contrary, others think that the idea is ineffective and
they believe that there are other ways which are more effective and efficient. The following essay will
discuss in details about the two statements.

On the one hand, some people think that the best solution in improving public health is by providing a
lot of sport facilities in the society. The existence of jogging tracks facilities, athletic fields, basketball
hall or football ground in residential areas would trigger the residents in doing some exercises. With
the increasing number of people who do physical exercises, it is expected that the rate of several
diseases which are caused by unhealthy lifestyles, such as diabetics, heart attack or obesity would be
reduced. Consequently, public health expenditures would be declined and could be allocated for other
important aspects such as education or public transportation.

On the other hand, another group of people believe that building some sport facilities in the community
would not be effective without health education campaigns. It is undeniable that health campaign is an
essential matter, since it is important to open the mind of the public about having a healthy lifestyle.
The campaign should be well prepared, socialized properly and implemented thoroughly therefore the
public will get the awareness about healthy lifestyles. Once people have realized about the lifestyles,
then they would utilize the sport facilities that have been built by the Government.

In conclusion, several people think that adding more sport facilities in the neighborhood would improve
the public health, but others believe that it would only have a small effect. There are other things that
should also be prepared besides building the facilities. In my opinion, I do believe that building some
sport facilities in residential areas should be aligned with health education campaigns therefore the
facilities would be utilized by the public.

Sample Answer 5:
Government has a vested interest in mental and physical well-being of its citizens. In the recent years,
there is an increased spend by Government to improve the sports infrastructure to encourage people
to stay healthy. But, it can be argued that providing sports facilities alone will not be enough to
motivate the people to stay fitter but other incentives are required to make the people stay fit. This
essay analyses the benefits of Government actions to promote public health and suggests other
methods that can be employed to improve them.
Firstly, physical and psychological benefits created by sports activities contribute to a better healthy
body. Regular practice of games like badminton and basketball increases the heart rate and burns the
deposited fat from the body that in turn can help improve the health of the individuals. Furthermore,
engaging in games can improve the concentration and relieve stress accumulated at the workplace.
Thus, sports related activities helps the people in leading a healthy lifestyle.

However, bigger challenge for the Government is to create awareness about the health and instil
interest in their mind to engage in sports-related activities. Creating sports facilities in several places
of cities may not generate a lot of interest among the public to use them. They have to create
awareness campaigns and incentivise the sports facilities so that the general public can appreciate the
benefits of using them. It can be achieved by advertisement campaigns and special prizes for good
attendance.

In conclusion, Government should aim at creating a healthy society by not only creating sports facilities
but also encourage public to use the facilities. I strongly believe that Governments following the above
mentioned actions will lead to a healthy society.

Sample Answer 6:
There are those who claim that the best way to uplift public health is through adding more sport

facilities. However, others say that this would produce few effects on public health and that other
alternatives are needed. These views will now be discussed and I will give my opinion at the end of the
essay.

Some people believe that having a lot of sport facilities is the best way to improve public health. They
think that with the availability of these recreational facilities will shift the attention of people from doing
drugs and/or other detrimental vices to sports, which is also a form of exercise. In our community, for
instance, members of local council in cooperation with youth sector proposed the constitution of a
gymnasium was finished early last year. It became the venue of different events not only within our


community but also the neighbouring community. Since the construction of the sport facility, the local
health station reported a significant decrease in clinic visit of the locals.

On the other hand, other people think sport facilities will have a little effect on public health and that
other measures are needed. They believe that there are activities that are more effective and more
important, health programs for example. For them, having an activity that everyone can participate in is
more effective than building more sport facilities. Perhaps activities like conducting daily exercise or
helping the local health department in locating ill people within the community would be a greater help.
As for my experience, I was once a volunteer in our health station wherein we do look for people in the
community needing health attention and we refer them to the municipal health office for evaluation and
treatment.

In conclusion, I think both views are of great help in improving public health. We, the residents, to the
best of our ability should cooperate and help our community leaders in improving public health.

Sample Answer 7:
Many people believe that sports facilities are essential for improving public health as sporting activity
helps to maintain body diet. But sports facility is not the only solution to improve public health. While a
healthy place let us live a healthy life, living in a dirty place and bad foods lead to numbers of health

problems. In my opinion, other measures are required to improve public health along with increase of
sports facilities.

Sports facilities are very important for public health either directly or indirectly. If you exercise regularly,
you will have less disease then others who do not exercise at all. Beside this, doctors always prescribe
to walk in the morning for controlling various diseases like diabetes. Moreover, sports facilities let the
children grow healthy and tall. Furthermore to the fact, sporting activity keeps you away from getting
addicted to alcohol or drugs. So, the importance of sport facility cannot be ignored in anyway.

In the other hand, other measures like reducing water contamination, environmental pollution, air and
sound pollution etc. are important to improve public health. Doctors always prescribe for fresh air
which is very important for healthiness. Moreover, there are number of deadly viruses transmits via air
and water. So, if we can reduce air and water pollution, it will help to improve public health certainly.

Finally, everybody needs to understand the reasons behind health deterioration. All specialist doctor
related to public health emphasize on the importance of pollution free environment, balance diet as
well as increase of sports facilities. In my opinion, various measures need to be taken to improve


public health by the appropriate authority rather than concentrating on a particular issue like increasing
sports facilities only.

Sample Answer 8:
Certain people believe that to improve people's physical condition more gyms and similar
infrastructural objects have to be built. Opponents state that these actions will not be productive and
other actions have to be made. In my opinion, although sport facilities are increasingly gaining in
popularity, they cannot noticeably affect the population's health.
Initially, it is obvious that gyms have always been a decent alternative to night clubs or bars,
considering that youngsters are often visitors there. The British Association of Doctors stated that 80%
of jobs involves sitting in the office. As we know, our ancestors did a lot of physical works during their

lives. Therefore we ought to visit fitness centers to load ourselves with exercises; otherwise you will be
weak and may be even taken ill. The main problem is the growing number of these facilities does not
mean that more visitors will come.

Moreover, there are other important aspects of well being. For example, a proper diet without red meat
and sugar might be healthier than a morning jog. The government should pay more attention on
advertising healthful organic groceries thereby reducing a consumption of food full of chemicals and
pesticides. Secondly, the concept of fit lifestyle has to be introduced and become a compulsory part of
school education. Lastly, to prevent addictions and improve public health prices on alcohol and
tobacco products may be increased.

In conclusion, to improve public health objects such as swimming pools, stadiums and gyms are
required. However other measures focused on healthy diet, advertising organic food or proper
education will be more beneficial.

Sample Answer 9:
Health is wealth. Without health no one can lead a good life because good health is essential for
people to work, to think, even to lead a basic life. However, whether ‘physical activity is enough or not
to lead a better social life’ is a debatable one. There are strong reasons behind on both the views.
However I opt to the fact that sport activity is not enough for good health because a perfect man needs
both physical and mental activity and other factors like proper diet, awareness among people, health
care facilities and healthy life style also contribute towards a healthy life.
Firstly, from childhood a person starts to do physical activity such as walking, running, playing but he
does not know the importance of such actions or exercises. When he grows up he knows the needs of


exercises .This is his mental awareness. So, health will not be fulfilling with sports only as it needs
mental power also. In current society, parents are least bothered about physical health of their children
and for themselves as well. Both parents in many cases are working and to make their life easier they

rely on fast foods and unhealthy foods. Not only that, most of the people are living in flats or
apartments, so children are not getting enough space to play. Due to this children are becoming more
prone to get obesity and it leads to unhealthy life and can make juvenile diabetics and other obesity
related illness. Nowadays there are varieties of sports or indoor activity like yoga, karate, or dance.
These activities provide wellness to the mind and body. For example in my place we have camps or
part time classes for children and adult for yoga, swimming, karate and dance. These facilities should
be made available on our convenience and less price.

If a person is physically fit with sports and not knowing about the importance of how to be healthy it will
be worthless. For example, there are many sports persons using alcohol or cigarettes. They are not
thinking about their health, because smoking and alcoholism can leads to unhealthy life style in future.
Health awareness should be emphasized from childhood. So, at first parents should be educated
about this matter because nowadays parents want to make their children more intelligent in academic
level. Community leaders such as teachers, doctors, and nurses should teach the public about the
importance of physical and mental wellness. Public health means not only physical or mental wellbeing
rather it includes environmental wellbeing also. Proper disposal of waste, maintaining green life and
deforestation are the main factors which help to maintain our environment safe.

To sum up, not only sports activities but also mental awareness is important to maintain good health
because prevention is better than cure.

Sample Answer 10:
Health is considered as the uttermost crucial element in people's life and no country can ever dream to
prosper if its citizens have poor health condition. Every year government spends billions of dollars to
recuperate public health of the country. Some people think that government can actually save moolah
by investing on building sports centers rather than squandering annually on medical supplies while
other argue that it would make little of difference.
Prevention is better than cure and it is indisputable that many diseases that people are suffering these
days is due to unhygienic lifestyle that people are embracing these days. Lack of physical activity

added with extreme work stress and junk foods are making people more and more vulnerable to
diseases like blood pressure, diabetes and depression and its medications aren’t cheap either. It is
evident that huge sum is reimbursed for treatment of these diseases. If government opens sports


centers and people take up healthy habit of doing physical work out there, not only it will make them
immune to these diseases but they will also thrive both professionally and personally as healthy body
is superior to unhealthy one any day.

However, the mere concentrating on sports centers to improve heath is not far from its fair share of
controversy and critics either. Many dispute that it is only one aspect of possible many to uplift health
status of country and snuggling it while completely overlooking others won't be of any use. For
instance people living in rural parts of our country do physical work all day and yet they do have poor
health condition. Lack of proper medical facilities, health awareness and malnutrition is leading to
untimely death of many by simple disease like diarrhea in places like Jajarkot and Ropla every year.
Now policy of setting up sport centers there while ignoring the real issues would not be nothing more
than a parody.
