In some parts of the world, many famous people are regarded as ‘role models’ and they are having an increasing influence on the young.
Is that a positive or negative development?

So Who Needs People?
A growing chorus of voices echoes this sentiment, defying the age-old notion of humans as inherently social creatures. The solitary life, once a fringe choice, is becoming mainstream. Apartments designed for one, restaurants with solo seating, and a booming self-care industry all cater to the rising tide of singles. But why are more and more people embracing a life unburdened by the complexities of relationships?
Some point to the relentless pace of modern life, where juggling careers, personal growth, and social obligations leaves little time for nurturing a partnership. Others cite the fear of vulnerability and the pain of past heartbreaks, choosing the safe haven of solitude over the stormy seas of romance. Economic factors also play a role, as the rising cost of living makes it difficult for some to afford the expenses of a shared household. But perhaps the most significant driver is the growing acceptance of diverse lifestyles, where being single is no longer seen as a deficiency, but as a valid and fulfilling choice. The stigma of the "lonely spinster" or the "eternal bachelor" is fading, replaced by a celebration of independence and self-discovery.
The dance floor of life, once filled with the swirling colors of companionship, can transform into a solitary stage, where the spotlight shines only on one. The echoes of laughter and shared secrets may dwindle, replaced by the stark silence of an empty apartment. The milestones of life, the triumphs and tribulations, are no longer met with a loving embrace but with a solitary toast to oneself. The weight of decisions, once shared, now rests solely on one's shoulders, and the burden of everyday life can feel heavier without a partner to help carry it. The path less traveled, while exhilarating, can also be a lonely road, devoid of the warmth and camaraderie that human connection brings. The freedom of solitude may eventually morph into the shackles of isolation, leaving one yearning for the simple joy of shared experiences.

Some people believe that women should play an equal role as men in a country's police force or military force, such as the army, while others think women are not suitable for this kind of jobs.
Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

The line graph shows changes in employment rates across four sectors of the economy from 1960 to 2020 in the US.
Overall, the number of people working in manufacturing and agriculture decreased by the end of the period, while more people were employed in the retail and healthcare sector. It is also clear that the healthcare sector, despite having the fewest workers, gained in popularity, thus overtaking other jobs.
The manufacturing and agriculture sectors reported an overall decrease. Initially, manufacturing was the most popular sector, with 15 million jobs available. The number of people employed in this sector increased to 20 million by 1980. However, after 1980, this number gradually decreased, falling to 13 million by the end. In contrast, around 6 million people were employed in the retail sector at the beginning, with its popularity declining gradually to 3 million by 2020, making it the least popular job in the economy.
A stark contrast can be observed for the retail and healthcare sector. Starting with a similar workforce size as agriculture (6 million), the retail sector expanded rapidly, ultimately employing over 15 million people by 2020 and becoming one of the most popular sectors in the economy.Healthcare, despite being the lowest initially, experienced a more pronounced increase over time, reaching a similar share of employment as retail by 2020 and surpassing other sectors in popularity.
