Competition and cooperationPar

Competition is a common phenomenon in our society . We

compete when we play games, we try to do better than others in

our study, and there is constant competition for jobs, fame,

wealth and so forth. Therefore,we can say that, in a certain

sense, competition is one of the motive forces of the

development of our modern society.

It is often believed, that competition and cooperation are

in opposition to each other. Some people stress competition,

without which, in their eyes, there is no responsibility, no

drive and ultimately, no progress. Others advocate cooperation

whatever they do. They are of the opinion that the dependence

of people on one another has increased, without which the

society we live in can not keep going smoothly. In reality, we

find that in many cases competition goes hand in hand with

cooperation. Lets take a football game for example. During the

game, one team is competing against the other, but each member

of the team must cooperate with his teammates. Otherwise, they

would lose the game no matter how skillful each individual

player might be. It is clear that competition has much to do

with cooperation.

As far as I'm concerned, I do not agree with the view that

competition and cooperation are always in conflict with each

other. In my opinion, while advocating competition. We should

never forget cooperation. In our social life, cooperation is

especially necessary because most work is fulfilled with or

through other people. So Ive come to the conclusion that

competition are equally important.
