：
Two
heads are better than one
There
is
a well-known
proverb
that
says,
“Two
heads
are
better
than
one.” This saying
is
quite
self-evident. We do

everyday
life, we may encounter situations where teamwork
is needed to ensure high efficiency.

the following examples.

think/believe/deem/consider
free

例

：
Capital
punishment serves no purpose and should be ended.
Some people believe that capital
punishment serves no purpose and should be ended.

quite
self-evident,

is
not
humane
and
it
deprives
those
criminals
of
chances to change themselves. To make
my point of view clear, I will offer you with the
following
examples.
