課題：Is the world heading towards another global conflict?

以下がサンプル例文です。

These days, we have some conflicts in the world. Many people have been worried about things that are escalating to a global conflict. In my opinion, the world is heading towards another global conflict. I will briefly discuss it.

Firstly, the shortage of oil will lead to the global conflict. Oil is still the vital sources of energy in the world. Although people are developing technologies to generate electricity from the renewable energy source such as sunlight, wind, waves and geothermal heat, but those technologies are still in the early stages and need more time until the actual usage.

Secondly, unstable US economy will lead to the global conflict. The United States holds a tremendous amount of national debt, 20 trillion USD, and the country will start to make unreasonable economic demands to the other nations, such as high tariff increases, more financial support to the stationed U.S. forces, nullifying debt to the other nations. Even the allied countries, such as United Kingdom, Canada, Japan and South Korea, will not be able to stand those demands.

Thirdly, rising China will lead to the global conflict. The Middle Kingdom has already caused some conflicts with surrounding nations. Some say it is already in an explosive situation between China and Japan because of the territorial dispute.

Peace is a precious commodity but human beings are still to learn this simple thing.
