Attending Life Performance is Better, Essay (IELTS)

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Attending a live performance (for example, a play, concert, or sporting event) is more enjoyable than watching the same event on television. Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.

The issue whether to attend a live performance or enjoy watching the same event on TV is a controversial one. However, in my opinion an intermediate position can be taken. I base my suggestion on the following points. But before I begin I think I need to clarify what kind of live performances I like.  I mostly attend concerts and prefer to see sport events on TV.

First of all, watching an event on TV can bring many advantages. One can relax and settle in his favorite chair, eating a cake or having a drink. One does not have to spend time driving to the place where an event takes place. Also, he does not spend money on a ticket. Moreover, sometimes sitting in front of a TV set one is likely to see more interesting parts of a show more clearly with the help of an operator. Second of all, the weather is no longer of that importance. He does not care that it is rainy or chilly outside.

From the other side, attending a live performance has many advantages too. Firstly, people can enjoy the songs as they are in a real time. Personally, I like to attend a live performance because they give much positive energy and many beautiful moments. Frankly, watching a show at home does not give me that. One can enjoy loud music, the closeness of his favorite stars and shout the songs he likes.

In summary, I prefer to attend live performances in the case of a concert and show. However, in contrast, I prefer to watch sport events on television at home.

7 Wastes in Lean Manufacturing (SIX Sigma)

Over-Production Waste   Definition  • producing more than what is needed • producing faster than what is needed Causes • volume incentives (sales, pay, purchasing) • high capacity equipment • line imbalance; poor scheduling/shifting • poor production planning • cost accounting practices that encourage build up of inventory Over-production waste occurs when more goods are produced than can be sold, resulting in idle finished goods inventory. Over-produced goods are often hidden wastes since many think they are assets with value, when in fact most of them may be obsolete or costing the company unnecessary expenses just to keep them until they can be sold if ever. The just-in-time, pull system, and kanban rules prevent over-production wastes. Also, lean systems favor smaller equipment over large ones to avoid overproduction due to high but unnecessary capacity utilization. Processing Waste   Definition  • non-value added man processing • non-valu...
