C1 – An environmental activity? Campaign to reduce the use of plastic

C2 – Reasons? 1. Tool to raise awareness / 2. More effective

C3 – How to get students to join? 1. Use social media / 2. Organise a competition with grand prizes

Nowadays, our environment is facing many issues such as pollution and climate change. There
are many ways to help protect the earth, but did you know that more than eighty percent of students
today are not aware of the role they can play? In this essay, I will suggest an activity that can be done
at school and ways to attract students to join.

For your information, the best activity that can be done at school is a campaign to reduce the
use of plastic. This is because plastic is not biodegradable and detrimental for animals and the
ecosystem as it takes a long time to decompose and usually ends up in landfill or the sea.

Why is this campaign so important for school students? In my opinion, campaign is an

important tool to raise people’s awareness. Youngsters today rarely watch news so campaigns like
this help them to learn about essential issues such as pollution and climate change. As a result, they
will be aware about the danger of using plastic. On the other hand, campaigns are more effective
especially among young people. It is as the saying goes, “charity starts at home.” Or in this case,
awareness can start at school.

However, activity like campaigns are not interesting for most students, so what can we do to
attract students to join this activity? The best way to attract them is by using social media. Teenagers
today spend most of their time on Tiktok or Instagram. We can use these mediums to spread
awareness by sharing videos or posters about the danger of using plastic. Moreover, the school can
organise a competition with grand prizes such as smartphone and shopping vouchers. This is because
students are more interested to join programmes they find rewarding.

In brief, campaign to reduce the use of plastic can be a good way to protect the environment
if it is held at school. However, it is important to get the students to join it if we want to make it work.

Do you know why many teenagers want a part-time job? It is because being a teenager, we
may not have sufficient money to satisfy our desire. In this essay, we will look at the pros and cons of
having a part-time job for teenagers.

For your information, there are many part-time jobs suitable for teenagers. The most popular
one is working at restaurants. It is because they can work outside of school hours. In fact, teenagers
can improve their social skills as they have to interact with customers. Another suitable job for
teenagers is as a babysitter. They can do this job during weekends. Not only can they earn money,
they can also use any spare time to finish their homework. It is like killing two birds with one stone!

However, having a part-time job often affect teenagers’ studies. In this case, they should
manage their time wisely by having a well-planned schedule. Another way to ensure part-time jobs do
not get in the way, teenagers need to prioritise their studies first. They need to make sure that they
have finished their homework or assignments before going to work.

In brief, having part-time jobs for teenagers has its own advantages and disadvantages.
However, it is for teenagers to decide which is more important: Is it money or their future?

Friends play an important role in our life. More than ninety percent of teenagers today spend
most of their time with their friends. They usually have a special place to spend time together. In this
essay, I will share about my favourite place and the activities I do with my friends.

If you could choose a special place, where would it be? For me, it is Darul Aman Lake or

public toilet, food court and prayer hall. I often spend my weekend with my friends here.

favourite activity here is going around the lake. My friends and I often rent the bicycles and take them
for a ride. Sometimes, when we are in the mood, we jog together while enjoying the picturesque view.
Other than that, we also love to picnic by the lakeside. While eating scrumptious food we bring, we
often catch up with each other’s life. Sometimes, we feed the fish and the ducks with our leftovers. It
feels good to be one with nature and be kind towards animals.

C1 – Chore you like? Help mom in the kitchen

C2 – Reasons? 1. Learn many new skills / 2. Strengthen bonds

C3 – How to encourage teenagers? 1. Monetary reward / 2. Praise them

Teenagers today rarely help out their parents at home. Did you know that only 4 out of 10
teenagers actually help their parents to do house chores? In this essay, we will discuss about the
benefits of doing house chores and how to encourage teenagers to help out at home.

As we all know, there are many benefits of doing house chores. The main benefit is we can
learn many new skills. I personally love to help my mom at the kitchen. For example, I can learn
cooking skills while helping her to prepare the ingredients. Next, we can strengthen the bonds with
our family members. Imagine washing the car or cleaning the backyard while talking and laughing
together with them.

Since teenagers rarely help out at home, we need to encourage them. First, we can reward
them with money for their hard work so they will be more motivated to help. Another way is by
praising them. This will help them to boost their morale to be more proactive at home.

In brief, doing household chores offers many benefits. However, it is the parents’
responsibility to encourage teenagers to be more helpful at home.

C2 – Pros? 1. Make money / 2. Power to influence the crowd

C2 – Cons? 1. Invite haters / 2. Drop out of school

C3 – if academic qualification is important? Important – to pursue dream

Nowadays, teenagers prefer popularity and freedom over stress and repetition. This is why, if
you ask 10 teenagers, 8 might tell you that they would opt to be a social media influencer rather than
working in an office. In this essay, we will explore the pros and cons of being a social media influencer.

For your information, there are many benefits of being a social media influencer. As we all
know, TikTok is a prominent platform especially among teenagers. Being an influencer, it means that
you can get sponsorship from various brands and companies depending on your popularity. It is an
easy way to make money. Additionally, influencers have the power to influence the crowd. For
example, you can share tips or promote awareness on any important issues such as global warming
and human rights.

However, being an influencer is not all sunshine and rainbows. Despite all the good things you
may do, popularity often invites haters. They will leave nasty comments that may tarnish your
reputation. We all know that it is easy to gain followers and become popular even at such a young
age. Some teenagers might drop out of school in their pursuit of fame. Little do they know, fame is
short-lived so they will need their academic qualifications to pursue another dream such as becoming
professionals or government servants.

C1 – Advantages? 1. Freedom / 2. Convenient

C2 – Disadvantages? 1. Budget / 2. Do not have privacy

C3 – Preference? Choose share a rental

In this modern era, furthering studies is very important especially for teenagers. Did you know
that 7 out of 10 young people choose to continue their studies closer to home? As such, they prefer
to rent a house than staying at home. Personally, I would choose to share a rental. In this essay, we
will discuss about the pros and cons of staying at a rented house.

For your information, there are many advantages of renting a house. First and foremost, we
have freedom to do anything we want. For example, if we stay home, our parents set a curfew and
we have to obey it. Next, it is more convenient and easier to have group discussion. It is because we
normally stay together at the rented house with our friends. In fact, it is easier to invite our friends
over for sleepover.

However, renting a house also has disadvantages. The first problem is our budget. In case you
did not know, renting a house is expensive. Not only that, we also need to budget our expenses for
food. Besides, we may not have privacy when we live in a crowded place. We may waste our time or
feel uncomfortable sharing facilities such as toilet and shower.

In conclusion, living in a rented house has its own benefits and problems. We need to think
wisely before making a big decision like this.

It is important for teenagers to have an ambition. Did you know that 7 out of 10 teenagers
today have no idea what they want to be in the future? In this essay, I will share about the occupation
that I would like to explore in the future and its impact on society.

For your information, many teenagers today are aspired to become streamers such as Soloz
and DaddyHood. However, I prefer a more conventional job which is to be a teacher. The main reason
is because I can contribute to the society. As a teacher, I can educate young minds to become good
citizens. Another reason is stability. Teachers are government servants and they receive monthly
salary. As a government servants, it is also easier to make loans and receive better medical benefits.

Did you know that teachers can impact our society? First and foremost, teachers are one of
the backbones of our country. Without teachers, there would be no other professions because they
are responsible to educate young people. In fact, teachers are also good role models. In our society,
teachers are often viewed as educated and noble. This is the reason why many people look up to
them.

In conclusion, it is very important for teenagers to have ambition. However, they need to make

C3 – Importance of being a wise consumer? 1. Save money / 2. Not scammed

all walks of life to do or buy things they want. However, did you know that 7 out of 10 teenagers today
do not know how to save money when shopping? Therefore, in this essay, I will share about how I
save money when shopping and the importance of being a wise consumer.

Like most teenagers, I also love shopping as it can be the perfect therapy to relieve my stress.
I mostly spend my money on food as I love to experience new taste. I also love to follow the latest
fashion trends and I would buy fitting dress and attire. Despite my love for shopping, I sometimes
waste my money. So how do I save money when shopping? My first tip is to compare prices.
Sometimes two different shops sell the same thing at two different prices. This is why it is important
to compare prices so I could get the best deal. Next, I usually buy during sales such Raya sale or 12.12
Flash Sale. During sales, seller usually reduce the price or offer more discounts than usual. Isn’t a good
idea to purchase when the price is low?

save a lot of money. Knowing when to buy, where to buy and how to buy things can save teenagers a
lot of time and money. They can keep the money they saved as funds for their future. Another reason
is to avoid scammers. Scammers will try anything to deceive consumers. Therefore, being a wise
consumer will let us know the difference between trusted sellers and scammers.

C1 – What’s the issue? Vaping at school among pupils

C2 – Reasons? 1. Peer pressure / 2. Stress

C3 – Ways to Overcome? 1. Organise campaign – give talk / 2. Enforce stricter rules

Nowadays, vaping is becoming a serious issue among youths. Did you know that more than 70
percent of pupils today have been exposed to vaping? In this essay, we will discuss about the reasons
why vaping becomes a problem among pupils and how to overcome this issue.

For your information, vaping is the act of inhaling chemical substances via the use of electronic
device. Vaping is prohibited at school yet many pupils are found guilty of getting involved in this
disciplinary problem. This begs the question: What may be the cause of this issue? The main reason
for this problem is peer pressure. Why teenagers are easily influenced to do bad things such as vaping?
It is because they are still looking for an identity and thus, easily pressured by their peers to do things
they may not want to do, just for the sake of getting accepted. Moreover, pupils today are burdened
with mountains of homework and expectations. When they are stressed, they seek a way to relieve it
and one of the easiest and most accessible outlet is through vaping.

Even though vaping is rampant among pupils, it is never too late to solve this issue. One way to
overcome it is by organising campaigns at school. School can invite speakers from National Anti-Drugs
Agency (AADK) who can bring exhibitions about the danger of vaping. Not only that, the school
administration can enforce stricter rules at school. For example, if any pupil is caught vaping within
school grounds, they can be expelled. These actions may help pupils to stay away from vaping.

In conclusion, vaping is dangerous problem among pupils at school but it is never too late for
remedy. However, if no serious action is taken, it may cause a bigger problem in the future.

C1 – Examples of self-care? 1. Eat healthy meal / 2. Exercise / 3. Drink water

C2 – How I take care of myself? 1. Take a walk / 2. Eat balanced diet

C3 – Why is it important? 1. Manage stress / 2. Better health and well-being

Did you know that 7 out of 10 mental health cases reported recently involves young people?
Why would such a thing happen? I personally thing it is due to the lack of self-care among teenagers.
Therefore, in this essay, we will explore different types of self-care and why is it important.

In case you did not know, there are many activities that can be considered as self-care. Eating
healthy meal at the right time every day is an act of self-care. Engaging in exercises three times a week
is an act of self-care. Drinking at least eight glasses of plain water to hydrate ourselves is also an act
of self-care. Basically, everything we do to take care of our overall well-being can be considered as an
act of self-care.

Personally, I prefer to take a walk outside whenever life becomes a bit overwhelming. For
example, when I have too much homework to finish or when I am too stressed with my studies, I
would go outside and take a walk in the park. Feeling sunlight on my skin and hearing the sound of
nature keep me calm. Another self-care action I do regularly is to eat balanced, healthy food. Eating
the right portion of food keeps me energised for the whole day and eating enough nutrients and
nutrition build stronger immune system for my body.

Engaging in self-care activities is very important for everyone as it has myriads of benefits.
First, it can help us to manage our stress. Self-care activities such as doing hobby or having an active
lifestyle can help reduce stress level and improve our mood. In fact, when we live a stress-free life, it
can also lead to better health and well-being. Consequently, we will live longer in a more meaningful
life.

To sum up, self-care activities are important for our overall physical and mental health. In my
opinion, no one else is responsible for our own body except ourselves, so start taking care of it starting

C1 – An eco-friendly product? Reusable bag

C2 – Reasons? 1. Can be reused multiple times / 2. Can reduce waste – less landfill / 3. Prevent
natural disaster

C3 – A way to promote to community? Organise a campaign

With the advance of technology, people are becoming more aware of the danger plastic has
caused to our environment. However, more than 70 percent of human activities still depends on the
use of plastic. This is why we need to play our part to reduce the use of plastic. In this essay, I will talk
about an eco-friendly product that can help to save the environment.

For your information, the eco-friendly product in question is reusable bags. It is an alternative
to using normal plastic bags which are harmful to the environment. There are many reasons why I
chose to use reusable bags. The main reason is because the bag can be used multiple times, as the
name suggests. Reusable bags are usually made of cloth or strong synthetic materials which is more
durable. When more people use reusable bags, the use of normal plastic bags can be significantly
reduced.

Furthermore, normal plastic bags are used only once and when thrown away, they make up
more than half of landfill. In fact, they can also kill marine life. Hence, the use of reusable bags can
considerably reduce waste. In fact, when we reduce waste, we also prevent natural disasters such as
flash flood and avalanche from occurring. It is because plastic usually will pollute the land and clog the
drainage.

While reusable bags are good for the environment, it is still unpopular in our community due
to how more convenient the normal plastic bags are. Therefore, it is important for the authority to
promote it. In my opinion, the best way to promote reusable bags is by organising a campaign. The
local authorities can give away free reusable bags to the community members or simply advertise its
benefits via social media.

In conclusion, reusable bag is an eco-friendly product that should be used by all walks of life.
If everyone does their part even a little, saving the environment is not impossible.
