Golfers, youths in brawl on green (HOME, pg 1)
Q1How did the teenager trespass into Singapore Island Country Club?
Q2: Is underage drinking correct? Explain your answer.
A1: One of the youth's girlfriend told the the reporter that they were taking a walk in a forested area near Mac Ritchie reservoir to see the monkey after a night of drinking at VIVO city.After that,they were finding their way out of the forest but there was no sign showing the way and because of that they trespass into the Singapore Island Country Club.
A2: No, I think it is not correct as it is harmful to our health and it is easily addicted like taking drug and smoking. Alcohol is intoxicating and have ethanol which is an colourless and volatile liquid with a mild odor which can be obtained by the fermenting of sugar. Long term drinking of this liquid will cause lung cancer and stomach cancer and more types of cancer.Short term of drinking also will cause dizziness and will cause bladder to full easily.
Drinking in young age will make you be 'cool' but think carefully before u start drinking.There are many reasons why i do not encourage teenagers to drink.
Firstly,you will get addicted and want to drink more and more...
When u reach the age of about 26 or older you will easily get headaches and you will be regret of why you ever start drinking just because of wanting to be 'cool'.
Secondary, a bottle of beer cost about $10 or more.If you one day drink lets said two bottle it will cost $20 and after one year you will waste about $7300 plus if u get caught you will spent 500 for the first two offence and for the third or more offence u will fine up to $2000.
Example that you get caught for four time in first year of drinking you will waste $12300 and that is 1/6 of the pay per month of most of your parents.(The fines and beer cost is for Singapore as for other country I don't know).If they pay for you ,they will need to earn more money and each day your pocket money eventually become lesser as it is impossible for them to pay the fines only as they need to pay taxes and many thing. When you get lesser money,you will complained and this will lead to lending money from your friends and hence you will borrow a lot of money and eventually you will in debt and in the end you are the one who suffer.
WHY NOT SAVE UP THE MONEY AND BUY THE THING YOU NEED OR THE THING YOU WANT.
- Thirdly, sometimes drinking may lead to a mistake such as a underage girl becoming pregnant and the two parties will be in trouble.
- The most common reason why teenager is when they are young they saw their parent drink ,when they reach the stage of teenager they will 'monkey see monkey do' and start drinking .
AND PARENTS PLEASE STOP DRINKING SO THAT YOUR CHILD WON'T FOLLOW.
I know some of the underage drinkers want to train their drinking skills as some of the occupation they will get in in the future may need to entertain clients that are a drinker too ,so they need to hold their liquor to avoid unpleasant quarrels .But think carefully ,how would you know if you will get in that kind of job and it is too early to start drinking ,can't you wait for you are at the age of 22 or more then you start drinking.
