Some people think that competition at work, at school and in daily life is a good thing.
Others believe that we should try to cooperate more, rather than competing against each
other.
Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
In contemporary discourse, many assert that cooperation should be prioritized over competition
in personal, social, and professional realms. While competition undeniably has its merits, I
firmly believe that collaboration can yield more substantial and enduring benefits.
Proponents of competition argue that it fosters personal growth and achievement. They posit that
competition is an inherent human drive essential for reaching significant milestones. This is
evident in various scenarios where competition spurs individuals to excel: positive peer pressure
enhancing academic performance, rivalry among colleagues leading to career progression, and
competitive sports cultivating elite athletes. In these contexts, competition is a catalyst for
success, motivating individuals to surpass their limits and inspire others. However, excessive
competition can lead to individualism that undermines collective welfare.
Conversely, I contend that cooperation is a more effective pathway to success. Collaboration
leverages individual strengths and mitigates weaknesses, creating a synergistic environment. In
education, for instance, group projects that encourage open dialogue and shared objectives
typically result in superior outcomes. Similarly, in the professional sphere, cohesive teamwork
within a department can enhance productivity and profitability. These examples illustrate that
collaborative efforts not only guarantee collective success but also enhance individual
achievements.
In conclusion, while competition has its place, it can be detrimental if overemphasized. Effective
cooperation, when well-implemented, optimizes individual strengths and fosters collective
success, offering a more holistic approach to achieving goals.
The provided line graph illustrates the number of participants in various activities at a social
centre in Melbourne, Australia, from 2000 to 2020.
Overall, film-club goers consistently had the highest participation, followed by martial arts
practitioners, both showing stability over the period. In contrast, amateur dramatics and table
tennis participants exhibited opposing trends, while musical performances only began in 2005.
From 2000 to 2010, film club participants remained steady at around 65, martial arts at
approximately 39, and table tennis at about 19, despite minor fluctuations. Amateur dramatics
saw a slight rise to 30 participants by 2005, then declined to intersect with table tennis at 20
participants around 2010. Musical performances started in 2005 with 10 participants by 2010.
In the following decade, film club and martial arts participation remained stable at 65 and 40,
respectively. Table tennis saw a dramatic increase, peaking at around 55 by 2020. Musical
performance participants rose modestly to 20. Meanwhile, amateur dramatics continued to
decline, ending the period with fewer than 10 participants.

David Lang:
Many argue that competing in a variety of daily environments is a positive, while others feel a
focus on cooperation would be ideal. In my opinion, although competition can yield
transformational results, it is more valuable to embrace cooperation as a guiding principle.
Those who argue in favor of competition contend that it serves as powerful motivation.
Examples of the impact of cooperation extend to all segments of life, including school and work.
In schools, the desire to compete can lead a student to study harder than their classmates in order
to achieve better grades and secure esteem from teachers and family members. At work,
competition for promotions and higher compensation packages is the entire reason that
individuals work diligently in the majority of company contexts. However, at home, competition
rarely has positive ramifications. Family members that are consistently competing for admiration
and recognition are likely to suffer from some degree of poor mental health.
Indeed, there is greater value in fostering a cooperative environment. When individuals work
together in teams, whether it be at school, work, or in the home, they are more likely to
experience high levels of motivation, and more crucially, enjoyment. Competition can serve as a
catalyst for achievement but is unlikely to engender the same levels of unifying satisfaction. A
standout example of this would be the dynamics present on a sports team at any level of
competition. Even though the players on the team are engaged in a competition, the most
memorable and lasting memories of their experiences are more likely to come from small
moments of comradery shared with teammates. This is the reason that many cite moments spent
working in groups towards a common goal as the highlights of life.
In conclusion, although competition can encourage innovation, cooperation provides a more vital
environment of mutual respect and enjoyment of life. Depending on the situation, it is therefore
imperative to seek cooperative understanding.
