Toefl Essay: Haste makes waste #1 (permalink) Thu Jan 04, 2007 17:19 pm   Toefl Essay: Haste makes waste
 

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?
Haste makes waste.
Use specific reasons and examples to support your response.


In my daily life, there are many occasions where most people are in a hurry to do their work in time. On these situations, the environment expects a fast service to resolve a problem in a short time. In addition, this behavior could result in a real waste of time and effort.

For example, sometimes when we go to a restaurant to have lunch, we expect a fast service, and we don't like to wait. This expectation could finish in a bad quality of food. The same problem affect to all the services like banks, supermarkets, libraries and bus stations.

Another problem related to haste, is that can affect your health. A common problem is the stress, that affects most people from big cities. This problem makes kids to stay much time in front of the computer or television, instead of making a social life.

In summary, I agree with the topic statement because in most occasions people make big mistakes when act in a hurry.
