    State/council housing
    In some countries the government provides state or council housing
    This helps people who cannot afford to buy their own house
    It can be argued that state housing creates dependence on the government
    People should be rely on the government to look after them
    People have no incentive to earn money and buy their own home
    Council properties are often made with cheap, poor-quality materials.

    Old Buildings
    Historic buildings are part of a country’s heritage
    They should be protected
    Old buildings are often considered to be works or art
    They give character to cities and attract tourists
    They show us how people lived in the past
    We identify countries by architectural symbols like the pyramids in Egypt
    Governments should spend money on looking after historic buildings
    They need regular repairs and maintenance
    New buildings should be designed to complement them

    Modern/green buildings
    Modern buildings should be designed to be environmentally friendly
    They should use less energy and produce less waste
    Modern insulation can make houses more energy-efficient
    Solar and wind power can be used to generate electricity
    Rainwater and waste water can be recycled and used to flush toilets.
    Modern glass buildings take advantage if natural light


    1. Language

    English as an international language
    English is widely used around the world
    It is becoming a global second language
    It is the dominant language of technology, science and international business
    International business meetings are regularly held in English
    The most important textbooks and journals are published in English
    The ability to speak English is a necessary skill in the modern world

    Negative of English as an International Language
    If one language is dominant, other languages may disappear
    The dominant language brings its own culture
    American culture has become popular around the world
    Other cultures may be damaged
    As an alternative to English, a new global language could be invented
    It would have no nationality or culture attached to it
    This could help to promote international peace and understanding
    Esperanto is an example of a language that was invented with this aim
