Some countries make it illegal to work past the age of 65. Do you think people should be forced to retire at a certain age?

Ielts Team

Opinions regarding what constitutes a healthy retirement age seem to vary from one country to another.

In universities, young women tend to choose arts programs while young men prefer science. What are the reasons for this trend and do you think this tendency should be changed?

public celebrations

Many people think that public celebrations (like national holidays, festivals, etc.) are a waste of money and that the government should spend these funds in a better way. Do you agree or disagree? Give reasons for your answer and examples from personal experience where appropriate.

Ielts Team
