Topic:
Some people think people should learn to compete, but others think that people should be taught to cooperate. What is your opinion?
Sample Answer:
Cooperation and competition are both essential to people. They are equally necessary for a person to achieve success in his or her future life. But if I must choose one, I would say that competition is more important as, if not important than, cooperation.
Competition helps enhance individual abilities. Competition makes people creative. Competition is a product of the development of society and it gives people a sense of the pursuit of excellence. This is people’s inborn nature. Without competition, peo ple would remain idle and have no ambition. Many people are fond of competition because it enables them to bring their knowledge or skills into full play. If you want to remain competent in the fierce competition, you have to spend much time reading to make yourself qualified for your present job.
Competition is the guarantee of enterprises’ existence. They have to produce better things. Otherwise, they will have no customers. So in fact they produce better things for their own benefit. At the same time, people’s various requirements can be satisfied and our society can develop as well.
Society, through competition, has developed a lot. Fair competition promotes progress and renews the looks of our society. Without competition, people would create nothing. They would feel satisfied with their present condition. With no competition, therefore, there would be no progress.
Cooperation is also indispensable for a better life of the people. Cooperation helps bring individual abilities into full play, make up for each other’s inadequacy and enhance the overall quality of the parties concerned. But cooperation without competition may bring about a peaceful life to all but destroy individual’s initiative and eventually affect social development.
