amount of time preparing for these tests while they should be teaching and learning new material to better prepare the students for their upcoming college classes. While standardized tests such as the ACT and SAT are designed to best represent students to potential colleges‚ they are only indicative of a student’s memory‚ not the student’s full capabilities. Standardized testing is not the best way to measure learning; therefore‚ it should be banned. The pressure of standardized testing can cause kids

“Animal Testing Should be banned" Imagine having a hole drilled in your head without any anesthesia. Imagine being kept in eternal darkness your whole life because one or both eyes were sewn shut or even removed for no good reason. How about being clamped down to a table with shock-producing electrodes attached to your genitals. Laboratory animals are put through these horrors every day. There are many views on this topic that I would like cover in this paper. Many new experiments and laboratory

Due to the unpleasant effects on children‚ online games should be banned by the government. Firstly‚ online games totally distract children from studying. Instead of listening carefully to what teachers say in class‚ young gamers often think or chat with their friends about how they can improve their ability in the games or where are they going to hang out in their cyber world and so on.

noticed how alcohol was changing these students’ lives. Some of these students I saw stumbling drunk didn’t even look like kids who would even put a cup of beer or liquor up to their mouth and it was slowly ruining their lives.

will end world hunger‚ but it is killing us rather than saving us. If food companies continue to advertise GMOs as the savior of America’s hunger problems‚ the country is in for a surprise. Any food product being sold to the general public should be removed and banned because GMOs contribute to the rise of illness‚ contaminate the plants in our organic farms‚ and humans were not made to play god.

Alcohol will be banned when people will understand that alcohol is bad. The damage alcohol does to a person is indeed considerable. Like all drugs that have an effect on the brain‚ alcohol soon has one addicted. The side-effects of alcohol consumption are poor health‚ impaired judgment‚ violence‚ broken careers‚ broken families‚ lost opportunities‚ lost fortunes‚ incoherence and disorientation in society. I doubt that talking and preaching about the evil effects of alcohol will have a substantial

Throughout time‚ many books have been challenged or banned. Most of the time‚ it is parents banning books with content that they don’t want their child to be reading. For example‚ a war novel‚ A Farewell to Arms‚ has been challenged for some of its content but it also has positive aspects to the story. In A Farewell to Arms‚ the main character‚ Frederic Henry‚ starts out in the Italian front as an ambulance driver. Eventually‚ he goes and meets a hospital nurse named Catherine Barkley with his good

The Effects of SAT and ACT Test Scores on Students Too often students find themselves cramming information they should know before taking a test. Initially‚ they’ll study the information‚ and mundanely forget it soon after the test. Students often say “getting grades is the most important thing about school” (LeCompte). The more emphasis teachers and parents’ place on performance‚ the more students become set back by a failure‚ which makes an even more vigorous point to this argument (Heyman and
