An old debate about what ability , be it competition or cooperation ,will be more beneficial to the young students in their future ,has been revived. Quite a few individuals prefer competition, while numerous citizens insist on cooperation. It is worth exploring closely based on both viewpoints and finally , I intend to give my own perspective.

One the one hand, individuals claim that children,who are encouraged to participate in competition,will gain great benefits in their adult lives. Globalization has significantly contributed to the competition not only between plants but also between countries. Children, whose awareness is cultivated to compete ,in the future, absolutely, can perfectly gain the access to the senior jobs opportunities available with fat salaries, luxury cars and big houses.

On the other hand,other parents' insisting on children' experiences of learning how to cooperate with partners can definitely accelerate them to cultivate teamwork spirit, which is popular in modern information industries . With the sprawls of internet, projects are becoming much more complex than several decades ago. Take iphone for an example, every generation of its product calls for at least three or four hundreds of employees to work together to finish this amazing gadget. If without cooperation, can anyone grab the fresh fruits?

To sum up, according to the discussions above ,both views sound reasonable. Personally, I do believe that to combine the education of competition and cooperation together will be an excellent proposal for the young students ,which bring them no drawbacks but only virtues.

On the one hand, individuals claim that children who are encouraged to participate in competition will gain great benefits in their adult lives. (<--How and why? Can you give an example?) Globalization has significantly contributed to competition not only between businesses, but also between countries. Children, whose awareness is cultivated to compete ,in the future, absolutely, can perfectly gain the access to the senior jobs opportunities available with fat salaries, luxury cars and big houses.(<--Reword to: "Children who are encouraged to be competitive are more likely to achieve success in the future, gaining well-paying jobs, luxury cars and big houses.")

On the other hand, other parents insisting on children' experiences of learning how to cooperate with partners can definitely accelerate them to cultivate teamwork spirit, which is popular in modern information industries .(<--Reword to: "On the other hand, many people believe that children learning to cooperate helps cultivate an inclusive environment, which is popular in modern information industries.") With the increasnig reliance on the internet, projects are becoming much more complex than several decades ago. Take the iphone for an example, every generation of its product calls for at least three or four hundred employees to work together to finish this amazing gadget. If without cooperation, can anyone grab the fresh fruits?(<--Reword to: "Without cooperation, this would not be possible.")

To sum up, according to the discussions above, both views sound reasonable. Personally, I believe that to combine competition and cooperation will be an excellent proposal for young students, which bring them no drawbacks but only virtues.
