1. Some people think the government should take measures regarding the healthy
lifestyles of individuals. Others think it must be managed by individuals. Discuss
both sides and give your opinion.
It has been claimed that in this contemporary world health is not concerned as a major.
Many human kinds think that officials should apply diverse methods to better healthy
lifestyle of individuals, while advocates suggest that keeping healthy is only in citizen’s
response. In my aspects of illustration, this issue is becoming more indisputable than
were in the past. The two controversial reflection of this argument will be analyzed
below before a reasoned conclusion is drawn.
Firstly, government should create more opportunities for people to continue healthy
lifestyle. For example, building well-equipped sport facilities and health centers can be
appropriate overcome from side of officials. Additionally, special sport trainings such as
jogging, running and warm-up exercises are established in western countries before the
working process is started in order to make mental and physical condition balanced.
Besides that, in some countries, companies allocate some time for having rest (for
sleeping) during work process but in limited period as it is proved to be beneficial
because it preserves employees from insomnia. Therefore, officials make contribution
to the life of citizens, especially, in the terms of health care.
However, individuals should to be a responsible for their health. Because controlling a
car is on drivers' hand as it has been enrolled. For example, articles about balanced diet
are presented in many magazines and journals. Additionally, domestic easy daily
exercises are recommended in these sources. Besides that, being healthy is clarified by
how responsible and punctual the person is, significantly, in doing sport activities daily.
Thus, mainly people are liable in their healthy lifestyle.
In conclusion, It is clear from the arguments above that both sides have a reasonable
evidence. However, individuals contribute more to health than governments do. Every
person should approach different to health, coming from their own weakness
