Question: How has the COVID-19 pandemic affected city life?

Sample Answer (The AREA technique):

Answer: Cities provide access to healthcare and education through a variety of channels, such as public facilities, private institutions, and community-based organizations.

Reason: Access to healthcare and education is essential for the well-being and development of individuals and communities, and cities have a responsibility to ensure that these services are available and accessible to all residents.

Example: For example, cities may have public hospitals, clinics, and health centers that offer affordable or free healthcare services to low-income residents. Similarly, cities may have public schools and libraries that provide access to education and resources for all residents.

Alternative: However, not all cities may have the resources or capacity to provide adequate healthcare and education services, and there may be alternative ways for cities to address these issues, such as partnerships with private institutions or community-based organizations. Additionally, issues of access to healthcare and education may also be influenced by factors such as income inequality and systemic discrimination, which may require broader societal changes to address.
