Student A Nobody can deny that not
enough girls do science at school.
In my class, for example, there are
only five girls who do physics, while
there are 13 boys. Personally, I
really enjoy physics but it seems, on
the whole, that boys enjoy science
subjects more than girls. It’s not that
girls can’t do science – in fact I think
they’re just as good as boys. There’s
no doubt in my mind that they just
need more encouragement to take
up science subjects.
Student B People need to go about
their business, get to and from work,
go shopping and so on, and public
transport between the city centre
and other parts of city where I live
isn’t that great. Admittedly, cars
cause a lot of pollution and the air
would undoubtedly be much cleaner
if we didn’t drive so much, but I’m
not convinced it would be right to
ban them from city centres. At least
not yet. Not until there are adequate
alternatives in place.
