Describe a rule that is important in your school or at work
You should say:

• What the rule is about
• What happens when people break the rule
• Why do you think it is an important rule
• Explain how you feel about the rule

1. Should schools have rules?

Yes, schools should have rules because rules help us in learning the difference between right and wrong. If there are no rules then everyone will do anything that they feel is right and this might create a lot of disturbance. As an example, if students do not follow the rule of coming to school on time then it will become tough to manage the schedule of the classes.

2. Should schools decide how long the working hours should be?

It is a moot point. I believe it should be the joint responsibility of the schools and the Children Welfare and Development Department of the government to decide the number of school hours because we should not burden the students with education and at the same time a minimum number of hours is also vital for their learning.

3. What kinds of rules do Indian families have?

It is an interesting question. The rules vary from family to family but if we have to generalize then most of the parents are strict about the fact that children should complete their homework every day. They also want their kids should not go outside late at night because they are concerned for their safety.

Some parents want their children to participate in outdoor activities to stay away from diseases like Obesity and Stress.

4. Do you think strict rules are needed in schools?

I don’t think schools should be a place where strict rules should be followed. Rules should be meant to teach children about discipline and other virtues. Having stricter rules might be detrimental to this cause and it could make children more rebellious instead.

5. Should students be involved in rule-making?

Yes, students should definitely be involved in rule-making because it will make them feel more responsible and hence there will be fewer chances of them breaking the rules.

6. What rules should children follow at home in your country?

Children in my country are expected to follow several rules at home, such as respecting their elders, doing their homework, helping with household chores, and adhering to daily routines like bedtime.

7. On what occasions can children be forgiven if they don’t follow some rules?

Children may be forgiven for not following some rules on special occasions like birthdays or family celebrations when parents tend to be more lenient.

Also, if there’s a valid reason, like being unwell, they might be excused.

8. What rules should people follow when using public transport?

When using public transport, people should follow rules such as queuing up, not littering, giving up seats to those in need, and refraining from loud conversations or music that can disturb others.

9. What kinds of rules do people need to follow in public places?

In public places, people should follow rules like not smoking in no-smoking zones, not littering, and keeping noise levels down to maintain a peaceful environment for everyone.

10. What are the reasons that cause people to break the rules?

People may break rules for various reasons, including ignorance, carelessness, or a belief that they won’t get caught. In some cases, people might break rules out of necessity or in emergencies.

11. When people break rules, how would they be punished in your country?

In my country, the punishment for breaking rules varies depending on the severity of the violation. It can range from warnings and fines to community service or legal actions, depending on the nature of the offence and its impact on others.
