Slide 04 - weak sample

Weak paragraph:

Some people think government spend more money for public health not for individual treatments. I agree this opinion, because public health is good for society. Public health can stop disease, like COVID-19, it is bad for economy and people. Public health can make people healthy, like exercise, eat good, and no smoke, it can prevent disease, like diabetes, heart, and cancer. Public health can help people with problem, like poor, dirty, and unfair, it can affect health of people. So, spend more money for public health can make people live better and longer, and save money for individual treatments later.

Slide 05 - strong sample

Strong paragraph:

Some people argue that the government should spend more money on public health rather than on individual treatments. I completely agree with this view, as I believe that investing in public health can bring many benefits to the society as a whole. Firstly, public health measures can prevent the spread of infectious diseases, such as COVID-19, which can have devastating effects on the economy and the well-being of the population. Secondly, public health programs can promote healthy lifestyles and habits, such as exercising, eating well, and quitting smoking, which can reduce the risk of chronic diseases, such as diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. Thirdly, public health policies can address the social and environmental determinants of health, such as poverty, pollution, and inequality, which can have a significant impact on the health outcomes of different groups of people. Therefore, spending more money on public health can improve the quality of life and the life expectancy of the citizens, as well as save the costs of individual treatments in the long run.
