TATTOO-ISM

What are some reasons stated in the article why some people choose to have body art like tattoos or piercings done on parts of their body.

They want to be different from the other ordinary people and want to stand out in the crowd. They do it to stay in their clique as the rest may have done modifications to their bodies as well. They may also want to experience how it feels like to have some different in their lives.

What are some impressions you would form of a person whose body is covered with tattoo?

I would not judge them too much on their tattoos on their body. You can't judge a person by its looks. A person may want the tattoo just for decorative purposes. Although the initial impression of them would be of a gangster, but it’s hard to deduce how them person is like until you know them.

Would you consider getting a tattoo in future? Why?

I may want a tattoo in the future as a kind of decorative artwork.When life gets too boring, you need something thrilling and different. I would definitely not tattoo my whole body but just a small piece here and there.

Sex among the young girls.

YOUNG GIRLS AND SEX

State any two reasons mentioned in the article which contributes to the sharp rise in girls under 16 having sex.

They think that it is the "in" thing to do is to have sex with their boyfriends. And also, they feel that having sex with their boyfriend will make the guy stay faithful to them. They may also be influenced to do it as their female peers have done it and still want to be as "cool" as them.

What are some consequences which a girl might face for engaging in casual sex?

They have the increased chance of contracting Sexually Transmitted Infections(STI) such as Chlamydia will lead to even serious consequences. Unwanted pregnancy will also occur if a preventive measure such as using a condom is not used.

What are some of your reactions after reading this article? If one day, a close friend of yours confess to you that he/she has been engaging in sex, what would your advice to him/her be?


I would ask him/her why are they doing this. Is it worth it to lose your virginity to a guy/girl who you may probably break up with soon? Maybe all they want from your relationship is just sexual benefits, and why should anyone give in to that kind of request. Its purely selfish on the person wanting sex. The consequences of having sex is greater than the supposedly benefits you may get out of your relationship. It is not healthy and beneficial at all, so just stop doing it for their own sake.

TUITION CRAZY

To students, tuition was necessary for them as they were unable to catch up and cope with the ever-hectic school syllabus. They find it hard to fully comprehend the different solutions and concepts in school. Teachers in school may also rush the syllabus, making it even harder for the weaker students to understand the topic completely. Therefore, a tuition teacher could slowly go through each concept and solution step by step till the student themselves fully comprehend it.

I think whether a person needs tuition or not depends on the circumstances. Personally, I do try to listen as much as I can in class and try not to fall asleep. I make sure I fully grasp that certain topic well before going on to the next. Tuition to me is just a person with a certain level of experience in that subject, just repeating whatever was taught in class and patiently goes through every little detail with you till you fully get it. So, there is probably not much of a need to spent so much money on it.
