Question 3.3 · Inglés PAU Galicia Ordinaria (2ª lengua extranjera) 2024

3.3. Write a composition answering this question: Do you think everybody is born lucky? (Approximately 120 words)

Solución: Sample composition: It is often said that some people are born under a lucky star, but I do not believe that everyone is born equally lucky. In reality, our circumstances at birth vary greatly depending on geography, socio-economic background, and health. On the one hand, being born in a peaceful and developed country with access to free education, healthcare, and loving families gives certain individuals an enormous head start. For instance, children born into wealthy households generally have more opportunities to succeed without facing severe financial obstacles. On the other hand, millions of people worldwide are born into poverty, war zones, or challenging family situations. While it is true that hard work, perseverance, and attitude can change a person's destiny, denying the reality of initial inequality is unrealistic. In conclusion, while we can create our own luck over time through dedication, not everybody is lucky from birth.
