As we age, it is to be said that our immune system starts to deteriorate and decline in strength , increase in the risk of infection which leads in the rise of going to clinic or hospitals.

2) the impacts on individuals is to be respectful to our elderly as they teaches us how to be respectful since young and be polite and, mature our brains

the impacts on family would be when there are elderly in household, we have to take care of them and does daily check up, and if anything happen we must be there for them

the impact on community would be hosting morning exercises, hosting volunteering work to help out the elderly who is in need.

the impact on country would be more older population in country which led to insufficient manpower in industries and which the government has to employed foreigners into the country which there would be lesser citizens working. government also have to invest more in the health of elderly like providing CHAS card and better health insurance.

Online shopping is the recent development, where we can just shop from home.

Arts can allow youths to express themselves freely without judgement from others.

There are many different forms of art which can allow youths to express themselves. Besides, expressing themselves, youths can generate income and learn valuable life skills from it.

For example, knitting is a form of art. The art of knitting requires one to be disciplined, committed and focused which also benefits them not just in the workforce but also in their personal life. Knitting has the ability to allow oneself to build patience and a sense of accomplishment.

Another example of art is the ability to express yourself through music. Music is a form of a intangible art. Music allows one to feel a sense of euphoria and nostalgia. A person that listens to relaxing music can help as it reduce anxiety and increase productivity when doing something that requires focus such as studying, playing chess or even while listening to a lecture

Arts is not wrong or correct in any shape of form. Everyone has different perspective about art therefore everyone's view of the arts are different.

3. To me,Technology is the practical application of scientific knowledge to solve problems and improve life. It involves tools, machines, and systems to transform matter, energy, and information. Types of technology include mechanical, medical, communications, electronic, and industrial. Technology has greatly impacted society by enhancing communication, healthcare, and productivity, but also poses challenges like environmental issues and social impacts.

Transport plays a vital role in our daily lives. It helps us move from place to place faster as compared to walking on foot. Whether it is going to school, commuting to work, or the movement of goods and services, transport is a key part of our lives.

There are many different types of transport, two main types are public transport such as buses & mrt and private transport like your privately owned cars. Compared to private transport, public transport is much more affordable and eco-friendly. It reduces traffic congestion and carbon emssions as one bus or train can carry much more commuters than a privately owned car.

Exploring the world is so exciting because I am able to have experiences that can never be achieved locally. For example, we are able to learn their culture, traditional food, different environments and the people. From my experience, I had a school trip last year to Thailand. The weather was vastly different than Singapore and the traffic was very heavy but I saw the beautiful art in Thailand that cannot be portrayed in Singapore and the country's food was to my liking as it was spicy and savoury. This gave me an open mind to appreciate the beauty of nature that I had neglected and motivate me to travel more in the future so that I could explore more beautiful sceneries I can experience.

Sports is a activity that allows us to keep fit adn be active on our everyday life. The older generation tends to exercise to stay healthy and slow down their loss of memory. While younger generation sees sports as a competition and a way to have fun without the company of their devices. Family will view it as a way to have family time, stress relieve and a way of bonding for them.

Ivin

when i was still in primary school, I have a track and field competition. My friends and i trained together and work hard together to help each other on our weaker areas. I managed to learn how to throw bean bag and had a great time bonding with my friends.

Ashton

sports isn't really my cup of tea, it isn't my favourtie thing to do i would prefer to watch anime play game and hang out with friends. But when it comes to sport i can proudly say i am quite gifted at it. Without any background and outside experience i am able to join the badminton cca eventhough their selection only picks people who have played and learn badminton before, i even manage to became the vice-captain of the cca even without picking up my racket once in my life. Also on the topic of sports while i dont look of the such, i actually am a teckwondo student, i frequent competition, and clencth the 2nd and 1st, i even got the honors to represent the school for NSG in 2 months. I can say with confidence that i will maybe atleast be able to win third place with my past experience. Another shocking fact is i actually training to be a lifeguard with already achieving the bronze medallion. While im dont really enjoy sports i can still say that i am proud of my sports jounery.

Kristen

Other than my CCA, bowling, i do not do much of any other sports. I remeber putting countkess amount of efforts in bowling competitions, rather than studying. It was my last NSG, I have trained so hard for this particular moment. I even join extra training, and got more practice than my peers. However, I fumbled a little on the first day due to my mental game. I realised that I should have focus on my game, instead of overthinking and comparing scores with other people. I was jealous at my peers who got less training than me but somehow got higher scores. I came back on the secomd day, more focused and determined. Though my score improved but i still did not hit my expectations. But with more practice, and coaches and peers and teachers support, I finally did better than before. But in the middle of the game, i got a blister on my finger, and it was astonishly pain, but i still continued to play untilm the end. Although, my scores weren't that good, i was proud of my determination and resilience.

1) as the climate change changes and more animals are endangered or at the risk of extinction. For example, polar bears are facing a crisis of loss of habitat, such as melting of ice caps as they hunt of seals, their primary source of food. Climate change is causing the Arctic sea ice to melt earlier in the spring and form later in the fall, drastically shortening the hunting season. Therefore, this has caused a decline in the population of polar bears.

2) the ecosystem is imbalanced as food chain is disrupted due to animals endangered. For example, honeybee is a great example of the endangered animal that causes food disruption. Many bee species are endangered or declining due to pesticides, habitat loss, disease, and climate change. Additionally, ecosystems may collapse, affecting water, air, and soil quality. As Singapore is a small country, which we rely more on other country supporting our country through supplying water, food and trades. For example, Singapore has built its NEWater, but it simply just not enough to supply everyone living in Singapore. Hence, Singapore would have to rely more on other countries by getting supplies for them to survive.

3) In 2024, scientists described numerous new species, including a giant anaconda, a vampire hedgehog, a dwarf squirrel, and a tiger cat. These discoveries highlight the rich biodiversity that continues to be uncovered.(Mongabay)

Scientists from the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research in Germany have developed a method to produce foie gras without force-feeding animals. By using an enzyme called Candida rugosa type VII to treat fat post-slaughter and blending it with liver, they recreated the luxurious flavor and texture of foie gras more humanely.(food and wine)

4) An example for a famous personnel would be David Attenborough who is a legendary British broadcaster and natural historian which is known for documentaries like "Planet Earth" and "Our planet". He has been trying to raise global awareness about wildlife and the effects of climate change on endangered species.

Why do we need education? Our parents will usually say we need education to get into our desired school, get a high paying job and support our family in the future.Is that all to it, is there no other reasons for education?

This is what most children think with the influence of their peers and family. However education has much more to it, its just that most of the time we don´t realise it.

First of all, education can provide us with confidence we need in the future. This is helpful in stressful situations like a job interview or presenting projects to your class. With some confidence it can help you perform better.

Secondly, Education can equip us with life valuable skills. These skills can provide us a source of income such as being a teacher or being someone who is able to provide service for the society

Thirdly, receiving education can help with cognitive development. While most people say that school is ultimately meaningless as most of the things you learn will not be used in everyday life, it does have some uses. For instance, comparing between a person that has education and another which didn't receive education, the person who has received education would overall be able to process much more information as receiving education has been able to train the brain into receiving more information and putting it into use, making education an essential part of developing cognitive abilities.

All in all, education does not only provide us with the knowledge for jobs, it also shapes our lives with useful knowledge which can only be obtained from school live. Hence education can provide us with all sorts of benefits.

Good

mentally calming effect- spending time in natural surroundings has been scientifically proven to reduce stress, anxiety, and even symptoms of depression. The calming sounds create a soothing atmosphere that helps clear the mind and promote inner peace.

peace and quiet - nature offers a rare chance to experience true silence and stillness. The peacefulness of a quiet forest or a remote beach allows people to disconnect from digital distractions and reconnect with themselves.

can enjoy during free time - Nature provides endless opportunities for recreation and relaxation. For example, hiking, biking, bird-watching, simply sitting on the grass, outdoor activities are enjoyable and often free. They also encourage physical movement and deeper appreciation for the environment.

Bad

Air, water, land pollution - Human activity has led to severe pollution of the planet. Factories release harmful gases into the air, plastic waste chokes rivers and oceans, and chemicals contaminate the soil. This pollution affects not only wildlife but also human health, causing respiratory issues, waterborne diseases, and other serious conditions

Climate change - The Earth’s climate is changing rapidly due to the buildup of greenhouse gases from burning fossil fuels. This results in global warming, rising sea levels, melting glaciers, more frequent wildfires, and extreme weather events like hurricanes and droughts. Climate change disrupts ecosystems and threatens food security, water resources, and human habitats

how it will affect future generation - If current environmental issues are not addressed, the consequences will be devastating for future generations. They may face shortages of clean air and water, loss of biodiversity, harsher living conditions, and irreversible damage to the planet. Our actions today will determine the kind of world we leave behind for our children and grandchildren.

In recent years, there have been a rise to global warming and the environment started declining at an incredible speed. There have been more and more natural disaster which leads to the destruction of nature around us. There are air pollutions, earthquakes , forest wildfire which ends up injuring or causing death to living organism. We cut down trees to make paper, build buildings but this causes many wildlife to lose their home and this will even drive some species to extinction. If this were to continue on, the future generation will suffer from the disaster done to the environment and nature plus the species we know of today maybe a textbook image for future generation to imagine. The 2019 Bandipur forest fires, India is a example of natural disaster causing harm to life, the wildfire lasted 5 days and caused many small creatures to lost their life. When the environment and nature gets damaged or is reduced, there would be lesser natural resources for years to come.

I myself am not a huge fan of shopping as its tiring and stressful in my opinion. Shopping is for people who actually love to express themselves through their outward appearances. As i am most of the times described as a boring person for my age, its not an enjoyable experience for me when my mother and my sister are dragging me along in their adventures through malls upon malls. But i can proudly say that i have developed the stamina needed to walk nonstop for hours. In my free times though i would rather do something that involves me giving it my whole attention such at punch needle embroidery or something tedious to do but without moving.
