As computers are being used more and more in education, there will be
soon no role for teachers in the classroom.
There is no doubt that education and the learning process has changed
since the introduction of computers: The search for information has
become easier and amusing, and connectivity has expedited

(Advanced, Speed up) the data availability. Though experts systems have
made computers more intelligent, they have not yet become a substitute

what can be expected is a change of the teachers role, but not their
disappearance from the classroom.
Nobody can argue that the acquisition of knowledge is more fun

and easier with computers. The mere activity (plain, Simple) of
touching and exploring this device constitutes (represents, comprises)
an enjoyable task for a child. This, accompanied by the relaxing attitude
and software interactivity, usually contributes to a better grasping
(seizing, snatching) of new knowledge. At a higher educational level, the
availability of digital books, simulators, and other academic materials

information, (constantly, continually, forever) that otherwise would not

be at hand.
But, besides the increasing complexity and behavior of intelligent

software, which is usually embedded (Rooted, implanted) in the academic
digital material, the need for human interaction in the learning process
will always be present, at least in the foreseeable future.

There is the necessity for a human being to be able to determine what
the specifics needs of each individual are. The expertise of a teacher in
how to explain and adapt complex concepts to different individuals can
hardly be mimicked by a computer, no matter how sophisticated its
software is.
As computers are becoming a common tool for teaching, teachers should

be more aware of their role as guides in the acquisition of knowledge
rather than transmitters of facts. They have to be open-minded to

the changes that are taking places, keep updated and serve as problem
solvers in the learning process, thus allowing students to discover the fact
Commented [G6]: Inserted: -
for themselves.
To summarize, in my personal view, teachers play and will

continue to play an important role in the classroom, especially at
the primary level. No matter how complex computers become, there will
be no replacement for the human interaction, but in the way how this
interaction takes place.
Popular events like the Football World Cup and other international
sporting occasions are essential in easing international tension and
releasing patriotic emotions in a safe way.
Every four years, the whole world stops to watch international sporting
events such as the Olympics and the Football World Cup in which athletes
show their best performance to make their country proud. These sporting
occasions have proved to be helpful in easing international tension in
difficult times when powerful leaders were trying to control the worlds
economy and other governments were fighting over the land.
The Olympic Games are one of the best examples which prove how
sporting events can bring nations together, at least temporarily. From

the ancient History, when Greeks and Romans would stop battles to
participate in the games, to the more recent international disputes, when
athletes from Palestine and Israel would forget their differences, compete
peacefully and even embrace each other after an event. Moreover,

these popular events have called the worlds attention to the
terrible consequences of wars; thus some leaders have tried to reach
agreements to end their disputes and live peacefully.
Similarly, international sporting events show benefits in some developing
countries which live in a daily internal civil war. For example, Brazil has a
high rate of unemployment, lack of education, hunger,

crime, poverty, and corruption which leads to an immense
embarrassment of being Brazilian and a low self-esteem. However,
when the Football World Cup starts, the Brazilian squad, which is
considered the best team in the world, provokes an amazing

feeling of pride in their country. Most people seem to forget all their
problems and even the criminal activity decreases. They paint roads with
the national colors, wear the Brazilian team shirts and buy national flags.
Moreover, the competition brings families and neighbors together and
even rival gangs watch the games and celebrate peacefully.
In conclusion, popular sporting events play an important role in

decreasing international tensions and liberating ( rescuing, savings)
patriotic feelings as history has shown.
Improvements in health, education, and trade are essential for the

development of poorer nations. However, the governments of richer
nations should take more responsibility for helping the poorer nations in
such areas.
Todays world has been divided into developing and
industrialized countries, which the main difference between them is
the amount of money that governments apply in important sectors such
as education, health, and commerce. Most of the poorer nations are
buried in debts as a result of their unbalanced finances which are

reflected in a failed health care, an unstructured education
system, and a weak international trade. This vicious cycle will continue
indefinitely (Forever) unless wealthier nations show interest in

minimizing the worldwide economic differences, as well as taking more
responsibility for assisting less fortunate countries.
Most of the African countries live in sub-human (Not Worthy of a

human Being) conditions because of the extreme poverty,
upheaval, hunger, disease, unemployment, lack of
education and both inexperienced and corrupt
administrations. The devastating consequences of the AIDS
epidemic in those countries could improve if the infected population
were to receive free drugs to control the disease, have access to health
professionals and get information on how to prevent its spread.

But this can only be achieved through international help programs in
which leaders of the worlds richest countries donate medicine and also
send doctors and nurses to treat and educate those in need.
Moreover, most of the poor countries rely on selling agricultural products
and raw materials to rich nations and buying industrialized products from
them resulting in a huge financial deficit. Consequently, they borrow a
significant amount of money from the World Bank to try to improve their
broken economies, but sometimes the money disappears with no

significant changes and they cannot even pay the interest to the bank.
Regarding this issue, last year the G8, which is comprised of leaders of
the eight richest nations, decided to forgive billions of dollars worth of
debt owed by the worlds poorest nations. In addition, they developed
adequate loan programs to financially assist those countries.
In conclusion, leaders of the industrialized countries play an
indispensable (essential, central, crucial) role in assisting developing

nations in dealing with essential areas such as health, education, and
trade. Also, their aid is the key to breaking the vicious cycle, which results
in poverty and death.
As computers are being used more and more in education, there will be
soon no role for teachers in the classroom.
There have been immense advances in technology in most aspects

of peoples lives, especially in the field of education. Nowadays, an
increasing number of students rely on computers for research and to
produce a perfect paper for school purposes. Others have decided to
leave the original way of learning and to get knowledge through online
schools. These changes in the learning process have brought a special
concern regarding the possible decrease of importance of teachers in the
classroom.
Some people believe the role of teachers started to fade

because computers have been helping some students to progress in their
studies quicker compared to studies in an original classroom. For
example, in the same classroom, students have different intellectual
capacities, thus some would be tied to a slow advance in their

studies because of others incapability of understanding. In this way,
pupils could progress in their acquisition of knowledge at their own pace
using computers instead of learning from teachers.
However, the presence of a teacher is essential for students because the

human contact influences them in positive ways. Firstly, students realize
that they are not dealing with a machine but with a human being who
deserves attention and respect. They also learn the importance of
studying in a group and respect for other students, which helps them
improve their social skills.
Moreover, teachers are required in the learning process because they

acknowledge some students deficiencies and help them to solve their
problems by repeating the same explanation, giving extra exercises or
even suggesting a private tutor. Hence, students can have a better
chance of avoiding a failure in a subject.
In conclusion, the role of teachers in the learning process is still very

Financial education should be a mandatory component of the school

program. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?
It is an obvious fact that financial aspects are a major part of the daily life,
as an adult and even as a young individual. Each and every one of us has
to make financial decisions concerning recreation, health,

education and more. The question is whether to start with financial
education as part of the school program or to postpone it for a later

stage in life.
To begin with, being able to understand the value of money, the

way the economic system works and to interpret financial news and its
implications is a virtue. Without this virtue, an individual, even a young
one, might suffer to some extent. For an example, a child who doesnt
understand the concept of money might find it more difficult

In addition, many adults are lacking the capability of financial analysis.
Quite often, the reason can be the lack of sound foundations or
insecurity when it comes to financial terms and concepts. Starting from an
Commented [G20]: Deleted:,
early age, building a strong background can very likely prevent
such situation.
However, financial education necessarily involves quantifying and setting

prices and value for services and goods. It can easily turn young people
into cynical human beings (Skeptical, suspicious, sarcastic) who lack

emotion. Furthermore, a tendency to self-concentration and egoism
might rise when one start measuring everything from a profit-making
perspective.
In conclusion, financial education has both pros and cons. In my opinion,
the advantages are more significant than the disadvantages, making
financial education an advisable component of the school

program. The disadvantages should be thought of as a certain price that
young people have to pay due to the characteristics of the world that we
live in.
Freshwater has always been a limited resource in some parts of the world.
Today, however, growing worldwide demand has made this a global
problem.
What are the causes of the increased demand and what measure could
governments and individuals take to respond to this problem?
Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from
your own knowledge or experience.
Write at least 250 words.
Model Answer:
Since time immemorial (ancient, age-old), in certain drier parts of the

world, fresh water has always been a scarce natural resource. However, in
the present time, due to various reasons, scarcity of fresh water has
become a global issue. This essay will illustrate some factors contributing
to this problem and will also elicit (Draw, extract, obtain) certain steps
that can help the national authorities and individuals in controlling this
growing demand for natural salt-free water.
Firstly, population explosion is the factor of utmost importance, which has
led to the global surge in potable water requirement. Secondly,

increased pollution of natural freshwater reserves due to urbanization and
industrialization has compounded this demand. Furthermore, in modern
times, the growing use of salt-free water for activities like recreational,
swimming has also catalyzed the surge in global water demand.(the
growing use is the subject so has, not have)
National authorities, on the other hand, can control this surge by

implementing public education schemes regarding controlled water
Commented [G25]: Deleted:s
usage. Strict national legislation for preventing natural freshwater reserve
pollution are also required. Moreover, the government should also enact
(sanction, perform, pass) infrastructures for purification of seawater into
the saline free water, which will help in meeting the growing requirement
of fresh water.
Similarly, the public can also contribute towards this noble cause by
conserving water and also by limiting their daily household water usage.
They should refrain themselves from performing activities that will pollute
natural freshwater reserves.
Thus, even though, the scarcity of fresh water is a growing global
problem, there are various means and methods available, by which

both the government and individuals can prevent this from
worsening.
Even though globalization affects the worlds economies in a very

positive way, its negative side should not be forgotten. Discuss.
Globalization is such a commonly used term in the twentieth century. It
simply means that the world has become integrated economically,

socially, politically and culturally through the advances of
technology, transportation, and communication. It is undeniable that
globalization has resulted in both positive and negative effects which
must be addressed accordingly.

To begin with, globalization has contributed to the worlds economies
in many beneficial ways. The advances in science and technology
have allowed businesses to easily cross over territorial boundary

lines. Consequently, companies tend to become more productive and
competitive thereby raising the quality of goods, services, and the world's
living standard.
Secondly, several companies from the more developed countries have

already ventured to establish foreign operations or branches to take
advantage of the low cost of labor in the poorer countries. This kind of
business activity will provide more influx (Invasion, inflow) of cash

or investment funds into the less developed countries.
However, one cannot deny the negative effects which have derived from
globalization. One crucial social aspect is the risk and danger of epidemic
diseases which can easily be spread as the transportation becomes easier
and faster in todays advanced society. This is evidenced in the recent
Commented [G29]: Inserted: '
bird's flu disease which has infected most Asian countries over a short
period of time.
As large corporations investor take over many offshore businesses, a
modern form of colonization will also evolve which may pose

certain power pressure on the local governments of the less developed
countries. Unemployment rates in the more developed regions such as
Europe may also escalate as corporations choose to outsource to the

cheaper work force from Asian countries.
In conclusion. I like to reiterate (Repeat) that globalization is
inevitable and we must urge individuals, companies, and governments

to use a more balanced approach by taking the appropriate steps to
deal with matters relating to the financial or economic gains verses the
social, political or ecological concerns of the world.
Economic not economical. Economical means cheap
In some countries children have very strict rules of behavior, in other

countries, they are allowed to do almost anything they like. To what
extent should children have to follow rules?
The extent to which children have to follow rules is in itself a very

complex issue since children across the world grow up in very different
cultures. In India for example, children are expected to be very
submissive to their parents as well as other adults around them. This,

however, is not the case with the Western countries of the world
where children follow the motto Thou shalt do what thou wilt as
promoted by celebrities and rock stars. I believe that following strict rules
has both advantages as well as serious drawbacks as discussed below.
Firstly, strict rules of behavior create responsible and respectful children
who in turn mature into respectful adults. This forms a stable society
which is virtually free from negative trends such as prostitution and drug
abuse. Secondly, if children do not follow strict rules of behavior, they
may get out of hand and become work-shy and indolent. This may
then create a burden on the society since the government has to find
ways to cater for these social ills.
However, forcing children to follow strict rules of behavior doesnt

always yield positive results as discussed above, most of the time it
backfires and works against society. For example, teenagers are

more likely to do the opposite of what theyre told to do simply because
they want to be independent. Children should also have rights to exercise
their free will and develop their own pattern of behaviors. Imposing strict
rules may simply destroy the individuality of children.
At the end of the day, it is clear that children should be guided by rules,
but these rules should not be imposed on them because as human
beings, they need to have room to develop their own traits of

character and adopt a behavioral pattern of their own.
Even though globalization affects the worlds economies in a positive

way, its negative side should not be forgotten. Discuss.
In the present age, globalization is playing an increasingly important role

in our lives. But in the meantime, whether it is a blessing or a curse has
sparked a heated debate. Some people argue that globalization has a
fundamentally beneficial influence on our lives, while many
others contend (Oppose) that it has a detrimental effect as well.
A convincing argument can be made about globalization not only playing

a pivotal (essential, central, crucial) role in the development of technology
and economy but also promoting the cultural exchange between
different countries. To start with, it is the globalization that impelled
many corporate to become international groups, thereby making a
contribution to the local technology and employment. Specifically,

when a multinational group establishes a factory in a developing country,
the new equipment, the new management skills and the job vacancies are
all in the best interest of the local society. Moreover, people

worldwide can get to know each other better through globalization. It is
easy to see that more and more Hollywood blockbusters show cultures
different from American, some recent examples are Kungfu Panda
and The Mummy.
Admittedly (indeed, certainly), the profit-driven side of

globalization has severely affected young people. Today, in the
metropolises in different countries, it is very common to see teenagers
wearing NIKE T-shirts and Adidas footwear, playing Hip-Hop music on
Apple iPods and eating at KFC. The culture that took a thousand years to
form just seems similar in these cities; it seems as though you can only
distinguish them by their language. Meanwhile, in some developing
countries, sweat workshops are always a concerning issue. For

instance, reports show that some teenagers employed by NIKEs
contractors work in smelly factories over 14 hours a day, but are only paid
fifty cents per hour.
To sum up, I would concede that globalization does come with some
adverse effects. Despite that fact, benefits created by it far outweigh the
disadvantages. Overall, I am convinced that we should further promote
globalization and meanwhile, the local government should take measures
to combat cultural assimilation and sweat workshops.
Some people think that spending a lot on holding wedding parties,

Commented [G39]: Deleted:is
Throwing parties can be expensive. While some people do not find these
fancy parties worth what they cost, others believe parties are
important to both individuals and the society.
People choose to throw parties for a number of reasons. For starters,

parties can make better teams. Project kick-off parties are good
opportunities to break the ice and help team members to know each
other better. Victory parties create a sense of success and belonging.
Companies do not see parties as wastes of money and allocate budget to
support such events. Moreover, parties often leave good memories. From
our own experiences, we all have happy memories of our birthday parties
when we were little. Every family has great photos took on family parties
in their album. In addition, contrary to what some people believe that
spending on parties is a waste of social resources, parties actually create
value, either by employing people in the party planning business or by
offering people better party experiences.
The popularity of parties, however, causes some tension in the society.

Parties are hard of introverted people who find themselves
uncomfortable in parties. This is a clinical symptom which psychologists
call it "social anxiety disorder". There are other ways to celebrate
important events that may have greater value for their cost. For instance,
companies could send out gifts after successful projects and parents
Commented [G40]: Inserted: al
could take their children on family trips to celebrate birthdays.
Commented [G42]: Deleted:n
In my opinion, while a party is a form of social event that brings many
benefits to individuals and the society, other choices should also be
considered, either to cut spending or to relieve the stress of those who
are not fond of parties.
In many countries, children are engaged in different kinds of paid work.

Some people regard this as completely wrong, while others consider it a
valuable work experience, important for learning and taking responsibility.
What is your opinion?
The issue of whether or not children should be engaged in some paid
work has sparked a heated debate. While some argue that having some
employment experience is conducive to a childs learning and

development, I contend that it would bring harm to the childs health
and learning.

First of all, a workplace designed for adults is normally the shortage of
child-friendly facilities. Desks and chairs are too high for a child; the light
switches are installed on the walls unreachable by children; also
emergency training and facilities such as phones are only provided to
adults. Furthermore, various hazards such as polluted air and chemical
fumes are still produced in factories and farms. Undoubtedly young
people would suffer in such workplaces.
Also, children would find it frustrating when they are not properly
inducted before starting a job. A child working in a cement factory would
feel a setback when he could not get immediate support while struggling
with the procedures of recording different raw materials that are required
by the job. Further, without sufficient support, a child's misunderstanding
or inappropriately communicating with adults would only disappoint him
and prevents him from active learning and interacting with other people.
To conclude, a childs paid employment experience would lead to a

negative impact on their health and active learning. However, recognizing
the importance of childrens learning and their awareness of
responsibility, it is advisable to encourage them to be involved in some
volunteering opportunities where they can meaningfully learn and
interact with other people with sufficient care and support in place for
such jobs.
Public libraries should only provide books and should not waste their
limited resources on expensive high-tech media such as software, videos
or DVDs. Do you agree or disagree?
With the proliferation (explosion) of high-tech media, some

people hold that the public libraries would be rendered(Decided,

users while another assert (Proclaim, stress, content) its only a waste of
Commented [G48]: Inserted: t
limited resources and the libraries should offer books only. Commented [G49]: Deleted:d
High-tech media is, in many ways, indeed superior to the books in terms
of entertainment, attraction, and functionality. For instance, videos and
DVDs function as a visual means to assist people to have a first-hand
experience even though those people have not physically visited or seen
the objects which are introduced in the books. Also, despite the audio-
visual equipment would be prohibitive to install, the capital cost would be
lowered by appealing to a sizable number of users.
More importantly, the software could assist the library goers to access the
Internet to update their knowledge on a daily basis; in contrast, books
typically take multiple months to be published, which in turn render their
contents outdated to some extent. In addition, upon learning that the
computer literacy has become an essential skill recently, public libraries
should take on the responsibility to educate its users how to operate a
computer.
Furthermore, it is a common practice for most public libraries to share

their resources via the Internet. In this way, even if one book of interest
cannot be found in one library, the borrower still could locate the
book from other libraries and then request the librarians to transfer the
book to that particular library.
In conclusion, public libraries would benefit in multiple ways if
they are equipped with the high-tech media.
Modern children are suffering from the diseases that were once
considered to be meant for adults only. Obesity is a major disease
prevalent (Common, widespread) among children. What are its causes

and what solutions can be offered?
Nowadays, the increasing rate of overweight children and adults is a

worldwide health issue. Obesity is a major problem which is increasing
day by day in school going children. There are various reasons behind it.
This essay will discuss the causes of obesity and offer some solutions.
The first cause of obesity is junk food. It is often seen that mostly, children
are fond of burgers, pizzas, noodles, and coke. These types of foods are
easily available to them in school canteens. Children love to purchase
chips, chocolates, - ice-cream for lunch. Moreover, in this modern era,
parents are working and they do not have time to cook at home. Parents
often buy dinner for their children instead of preparing food at home.
This calorie-rich diet is making children obese. This problem can be

solved by teaching children to cook healthy foods for themselves and
banning junk foods and fizzy drinks in schools. This diet can be
replaced by milk, juice, and fruits for lunch.
The second cause of obesity is sedentary (Inactive, deskbound,

sitting) lifestyle. It is true that the use of computers and television is
increasing in children. They spend most of their time watching television
or playing video games on a computer. This technological advancement
has reduced the level of physical activity in this specific age group. This
issue can be resolved by encouraging children to do physical exercises.
Parents can take their children to park to encourage playing with friends.
Furthermore, schools can add sports in their curriculum to maintain
physical fitness in their students.
To sum up, it is clear that main causes of obesity are unhealthy eating
and not enough physical activities. This ailment (illness, disorder) can
be prevented and treated by healthy eating habits and physical exercises.
Some people think that schools should select students according to their
academic abilities, while others believe that it is better to have students
with different abilities studying together. Discuss both views and state
your own opinion.
Some people contend that mixed ability classes are more beneficial for
children's development than streaming them on the basis of the
judgment about their academic abilities. However, from my perspective, I
disagree with this contention.
Admittedly, mixed ability classes provide a better environment for

childrens all-round development. In such classes, children with different
abilities study together and in turn, they can learn from one another.
From example, a student, who is good at the academic study but weak in
dancing or painting, can learn how to dance or paint form his peers. In
this sense, mixed ability classes allow students to develop their abilities in
different subjects instead of only academic abilities.
Despite the argument above, I believe streaming students bring more

benefits to teachers and students. As for teachers, separating children
with better academic abilities from others facilitates (assist, expedite,
accelerate) effective teaching. This practice helps teachers to control their
students more conveniently and easily. Compared with mixed ability in
which teacher should consider students differences when they are using
teaching methodologies, streaming makes this situation simpler. To be

more specific, students are at the same level of academic ability in a
class, and in turn, teachers can use the same methodologies for them all.
In this way, the narrower the spread of ability in the class, the more
convenient the teaching can be.
On top of this, steaming enables students to learn in an effective way.

According to students different abilities, they are taught in different
ways that are more suitable for them. In the top streams, students use
more difficult materials, therefore, they can learn more. In sharp
contrast, teachers can explain the material more slowly to those in
bottom streams. Under this circumstance, students with different
academic abilities can study effectively and efficiently.
In the final analysis, mixed ability classes are beneficial for students
versatile development, but in my opinion, segregating students based on
different academic ability is better for both teachers and students.
Many offenders commit more crimes after serving the first punishment.
Why is this happening, and what measures can be taken to tackle this
problem?
It is true that some criminals commit crimes again after they have been
punished. While there are several reasons for this alarming trend, some
effective measures can be taken by governments to tackle this problem.
There are two main reasons for re-offenders. Firstly, the prison
system can make the situation worse. Criminals are put together in prison
and they make friends with other offenders. While they are locked up in
prison, they do not have much to do there, and they would exchange
information about what they have done before they came to the prison
or they may plan crimes with other inmates (prisoners). Secondly,

offenders often do not have any other means of earning money. They are
poor, uneducated and lacking skills needed to maintain a job. Also, a
criminal record makes finding a job difficult as people usually avoid
hiring ex-convict.
To solve this problem, governments should focus on rehabilitation of

criminals rather than punishment. Above all, prisons need vocational
training which makes inmates (Prisoners) prepare for life outside the
prison. They can learn practical skills such as computer programming, car
maintenance, and graphic design. In this way, they can be hired for a
position that requires this certain knowledge and skills. Community
Commented [G60]: Deleted:to
service is another way to reform offenders. Rather than being locked up
in prison with other inmates, offenders can help society and become
useful to their local community, and these activities would eliminate the
negative influence that prisons can have.
In conclusion, it is true the re-offenders are one of the problems in our

community; it can be solved by focusing rehabilitation rather than the
punishment itself.
When a country develops its technology, the traditional skills and

ways of life die out. It is pointless to try and keep them alive. To
what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?
Nowadays, technological advances and their rapid and wide

applications are having a significant impact on a nations traditional
skills and ways of life. Some argue that such impact is so
extraordinary that it would make conventional skills and lifestyles
obsolete. However, I believe they would continue to thrive (prosper,
boom, succeed) by providing alternatives to modern ways of life, and
innovative ideas for modern technologies.
First of all, traditional skills and ways of life are becoming an alternative
solution to the problems caused by mainstreamed (Normal,

Typical, conventional) ways of life which are greatly influenced by modern
technologies. For instance, a cozy restaurant where traditional,

home-brewed beer is served, offers another experience to people who
are bored with branded beers that have the same flavor and come out of
mass production with new technologies. It is in such a venue where
traditional skills are preserved, people become relaxed and educated.
Providing diversity and thus enriching modern ways of life, such

traditional skills and ways of life would continue to have their place.
Furthermore, conventional skills provide innovative ideas to the

development of modern technologies. For example, sparkled by how the
word Love is traditionally knitted into a sweater by some ethnic

(Cultural, traditional, indigenous) minority women in some parts of Asia,
some business managers from textile industry have developed some
production lines by applying the traditional skills to Computer-Aided
Designs (CAD). The products have boosted the companies sales which
in turn have increased their investment in preserving traditional skills for
further developing their technologies.
To conclude, traditional skills and lifestyles are increasingly becoming a
useful alternative to the homogeneity (similarity, regularity) brought

by global applications of modern technologies. However, the evolution of
technologies is a selection process, whereby some would become
obsolete, but there is no doubt that some would thrive when their roles
are appreciated.
Forests are the lungs of the earth. Destruction of the worlds forests
amounts to death of the world we currently know.
To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Model Answer:
I Completely agree with the statement that, the Earths natural green
reserves purify its atmosphere and functions synonymously

(identically, the same way) as that of the mammalian lungs. I also
advocate the view that, forest destruction will ruin our present
world.
Firstly, from our basic knowledge of plant physiology, it can be restated

(reiterated) that, plants by the process of photosynthesis convert the
harmful carbon-dioxide gas into Oxygen, without which life cannot
exist. Thus in a wider perspective, it can be stated that the

earth's forests purify the atmosphere and thereby help in sustaining life.
Secondly, environmentalists have proven that the rapid destruction of
forests is also a leading cause of global warming. Hence,

destruction of the natural green reserves may lead to such a surge in the
global temperature that agricultural land may become arid, leading to
widespread famine and deaths. Thirdly, forests also house
(Retain, keep, accommodate- A good diversity of coral life
on the reef houses equally diverse marine animals) diverse forms of life and
these would become extinct if we continue to destroy their natural
habitats. (Surroundings, territories)

Furthermore, scientific research has proven that forest ecosystem act as

natural scavengers and by the process of biodegradation, forest Commented [G67]: Deleted:ve
ecology helps in producing crude oil, which fuels our modern world and
its unavailability is unimaginable as this will directly catalyze a global
economic crisis. Finally, forests are also the source of numerous
medicinal plants, from which varieties of modern medicines are Commented [G66]: Inserted: ,
produced; Quinine, an antimalarial drug, produced from the barks of
Cinchona trees is the best possible example. Hence forest

destruction will also be a bane for the medical community.
Thus the harmony of the present wonderful will
be ruined if our natural green reserves are continuously destroyed and
there is a theoretical possibility that the blue planet might

become lifeless if these green lungs are totally wiped out.

factor that makes a job ideal.
Firstly, the importance of financial security cannot be undermined in the
modern materialistic world. Since a vast majority of people earn

their livelihood from their workplace, it will be difficult for individuals with

a single source of income, to make their ends meet, from
underpaying jobs. Thus underpaid employees, because of their financial
burdens, may not be able to offer dedication and commitment at the
workplace, which in turn results in under-performance.
Secondly, the educated refrain from being employed in underpaying jobs,
as these are less attractive. Hence the remuneration associated is an
important factor that determines the value of a particular job.
On the other hand, to glorify higher earning as the sole determiner

of an ideal job is incorrect. This is because of various other factors like
work and life balance; working place culture and adequate recognition
Commented [G71]: Inserted: of
contribute towards satisfaction and contentment in work. Thus an

astronomically (Immensely, vastly) higher paying job with a demanding
employer, with poor social life in a tedious workplace environment will
lead to higher job dissatisfaction, which in turn will also promote higher
attrition.
Henceforth, it can be stated that apart from financial remuneration, which
is a major determiner of a good occupation, job satisfaction is also an
equally important associated factor that determines the value of a

specific job.

following topic
Some people believe the aim of university education is to help graduates

get better jobs. Others believe there are much wider benefits of university
education for both individuals and society.
Discuss both views and give your opinion.
Model Answer:
According to a section of society, the primary goal of tertiary

education is to enable individuals secure coveted (longed for,
desired) jobs. However, others strongly believe that goal of higher
education is to achieve greater good; both for individuals and
society. I strongly believe that purpose of university education is far

beyond job prospects and in the course of the essay, I
will discuss both the viewpoints.
There are specific reasons why people believe that tertiary education is
the gateway to a lucrative job. Firstly market researchers in

the United States and other developed countries have shown that
postgraduates are able to command a considerably higher salary at the
workplace when compared to graduates or simple high school diploma
holders. Moreover, the professional world of certain white collared, highly
Commented [G75]: Inserted: y
respected professions, like those of physicians, engineers, scientists can Commented [G76]: Inserted: r

only be pursued, after graduating from the respective university courses.
Furthermore, in certain fields like management, the

credibility of various universities are judged by their ability to generate
glittering well-paid employment offers for their fresh graduates, during
their campus placements. Hence university education is definitely
perceived as a means of better employability.
In this context, it is worth mentioning that, apart from generating lucrative

jobs for students, universities also benefit the nation by creating educated
societies, containing an immense pool (Group, team) of
forward-thinking individuals, who can contribute towards social
development by their respective (Own, individual, relevant,
corresponding) expertise. Individuals graduating from universities also
additionally benefit from the multicultural environments that promote
intercultural tolerance and brotherhood. The process of

tertiary education also promotes teamwork and collective development
amongst individuals. Over and above, numerous long-lasting friendships,
business partnerships, and courtships also bloom from the university
campus life.
Finally, to sum up, it can be confidently stated that apart from generating
respectable employment, there are numerous associated
positive aspects of university education, which are of great social

and individual significance.

International tourism has brought enormous benefit to many places. At

the same time, there is concern about its impact on local inhabitants and
the environment.
Do the disadvantages of international tourism outweigh the advantages?

Model Answer:
The travel industry has experienced a major boom in the later part of the
Commented [G82]: Inserted: he t
20th century and has been a boon in disguise

(blessing), which has helped some weaker nations to uplift their
failing economies. While questions have been raised regarding the
negative impacts that accompany the growth in the travel sector, these
definitely do not outweigh the associated benefits.

The economic boost that accompanies a successful travel industry is quite
well recognized and Thailand is the best example. The entire Thai
economy revolves around tourism and the country had been able to
uplift its socio-economic status through its flourishing

hospitality sector. Egypt is another nation that is heavily dependent on its
hospitality sector. The growth in the number of incoming tourists leads to
innumerable (countless, numerous) prospects in terms of local
entrepreneurship & employment generation. This is also associated with
international investments and infrastructure development. The national
authorities, in order to ensure the safety of the international visitors
provide better law and order enforcement, improved transportation and
healthcare facilities, which in turn benefit the local population.
On the other hand, the rising influx (arrival) of holidaymakers is

associated with increased incidences of crimes, prostitution and antisocial
activities like drugs, human trafficking, and gambling, which affect the
values of the indigenous society. The local population is also affected by
the growth in property value indices. Environmentalists are also
concerned regarding environmental remodeling, that is

associated with increased tourist activities in natural reserves. In this
context, it is worth mentioning that, by enforcing stern law and order and
implementing strict legislation, governments can control most of these
negative impacts of tourism.
Henceforth, it can be confidently conveyed that, even though the growth

in the travel industry has accompanying negative social impacts, these do
not outweigh the contributions made by this sector towards social

In the modern world, the image (photograph or film) is becoming a more
powerful way of communicating than the written word.
Model Answer:
In modern society, with the advent of advanced telecommunication and

photographic technologies, visual expression in mediums such as
television, photography, and films are increasingly becoming popular as
powerful means of expression when compared to the simple mundane
printed medium.
The increasing preference and use of visual resources over written

communication is an undeniable fact and the growing utilization of video-
based learning in modern schools over textbook based knowledge
transfer is the best possible example. In the present evidence-seeking
world, visual communication is a powerful tool as it provides recognizable
facts. Meticulously (Accurately, precisely) crafted images, like

political cartoons and television documentaries readily deliver the
concerned messages to the onlookers (spectators, viewers) and are

most beneficial in conveying thoughts to the busy and uneducated
Commented [G90]: Deleted:ly
sections of the society. The television is also being bombarded

(showered, Flooded, overwhelmed) with numerous catchy (Attractive,
Commented [G91]: Deleted:e
likable, appealing) advertisements, by which manufacturers try to
communicate with the masses regarding their products.
On the other hand, the appeal of the printed media as means (ways,
processes, methods) of mass communication is declining as the younger
generation considers it to be relatively old-fashioned and

boring. Moreover, in the fast-paced (speed, velocity) modern city life, Commented [G93]: Inserted: -
less number of people can afford to dedicate time for reading the daily
morning newsprints, instead, most of the city dwellers follow the

daily-televised news. Despite this decreased appeal for mass
communication, the value of the written form still stands tall in the
field of interpersonal and formal communication. Written words, as a
form of official documentation, can never be superseded

(Replaced, displaced, take over from) by any other means.
Thus, visual communication is definitely a popular, powerful and better

tool for mass communication but written form of expression still has equal
importance for official, formal and interpersonal purposes.
following topic
In some countries, young people are encouraged to work or travel for a

year between finishing high school and starting university studies.
Discuss the advantages and disadvantages for young people who decide
to do this.
Model Answer:
In certain countries, it is preferred that students should take a year off

from studies after completing high school, prior to joining universities and
during this period they are encouraged to work or to travel. Even though
this seems to be a noble concept, it has its own merits and demerits and
some of these will be illustrated in this essay.
Firstly, a year off, after completing years of continuous school education is

a welcome break for students and is well deserved too. This period also
serves as the well-earned family time for those pupils who grew up within
the closed boundaries of boarding schools. Secondly, this period provides
ample opportunities to young people, to experience the realities of the
modern world. Those students who prefer a break, can experiment with
various forms of employment and thereby decide their career goals and
Commented [G99]: Deleted:up
directions depending on their experiences. The holidaymakers, on the
other hand, can familiarize with the customs and cultures of various
countries, which in turn will widen their outlook (viewpoint, attitude,
stance) and will also promote cultural tolerance. Thus, in a wider
perspective, such breaks help the young minds in preparing for the much
demanding university life.
In contrast, certain disadvantages are definitely associated with this

concept and are worth mentioning. Firstly, scholars are of the opinion
that, such breaks from studies, during the learning phase of

life, affects further education. According to them, such activities should
not be encouraged as there are higher chances that the young minds
might lose interest in learning or may get demotivated due to various
reasons and might ultimately refrain from pursuing the university
education. Secondly, the employed youth, due to a sudden increase in
their purchasing power, might also get attracted to various social
evils like drugs, gambling and alcoholism.
Thus, to sum up, it will be wise to comment that such policies even
though are noble practices, should not be made mandatory on a national
scale, as these activities are also associated with considerable negative

Today the high sales of popular consumer goods reflect the power of
advertising and not the real needs of the society in which they are sold.
Model Answer:
It is sometimes argued that rise in demand of much sought after

consumer goods is more due to advertising techniques than any
pressing needs to own them. I strongly agree with this argument and will
provide reasons for such agreement.
Over the years, the brand promotion has become more innovative and
prevalent (predominant, widespread, customary, and prevailing). First of
all, brand endorsement in various public and private events has
skyrocketed to all-time high. For example, in sporting events like Indian
Premier League, players endorse various consumer products ranging
from shoe polish to fairness cream. Another example is, in movies and
online videos, commercial products are strategically placed to draw public
attention. Consequently, public persona gets influenced subtly and
contributes to the rise in sales of such items.
Another reason for the rise in sales is increased the desirability of popular
products. Through digital platforms and media events, companies Commented [G107]: Inserted: the
hype (advertise)every new feature introduced as latest and

greatest.As a result, society craves (desire, needs, requires) for such
products and rush to either buy or upgrade existing products. For
instance, every year mobile companies introduce the updated version of
Commented [G108]: Inserted: e th
gadgets with the latest technologies and charge a bomb. Companies
highlight these features as must have and influence society to buy them.
Till a few years ago, people would continue with the same mobile phone
for years. But in recent times, the trend is to upgrade mobile phones
frequently, thanks to innovative marketing strategies.
Having considered a range of arguments, I have drawn the conclusion

that advertising strongly influences society to buy consumer goods,
resulting in higher sales. From celebrity endorsements (advocacies,
supports, encouragements) to hyped technologies, advertising
significantly influences consumers spending behavior.

Is this a positive development?
Model Answer:
With the advancement in the field of the health sector, there has been an
increase in the average lifespan of Homo sapiens. Whether the impact of
this increase in the percentage of living old individuals is beneficial or
Commented [G111]: Deleted:a
harmful is contentious (Controversial, Provocative) issue. This essay will
emphasize on the views of both sides.
Elders are the building blocks of a society, their

experiences in life help others to shape their future. Firstly, elders of the
family look after the grandkids, enabling their parents to schedule their
day more efficiently. The care they provide is far better than the attention
given in kindergartens and preschools, and also, they charge only love.
Secondly, some of the retirees provide helpful services in the community.
For instance, they voluntarily feed the homeless in soup kitchens or drive
handicapped or older people to their hospital appointments and church
sessions. Thus, their contribution to society is undeniable.
However, despite the above-mentioned facts, many believe that there are
plethora (excess) of the negative impacts of this increase. To begin Commented [G115]: Inserted: are
with, the rising number of retired people is contributing to the increasing

financial burden on the tax-paying working class. For instance, according
to the data of the National Health Sector of U.K, last year geriatrics
comprised more than three fourth of the total recorded visits to the
General Physicians clinic. Furthermore, increasing lifespan means low
mortality, which leads to expansion of the population. The increase in
necessities of this bustling population thus, put a strain on the

existing resources, therefore, raising load on the biosphere.
In conclusion, the dramatic increase in elder population has both pros
and cons related to it. But, with better management by government and
local communities to find ways to occupy these extra helping hands, may
lead to better results in future.

affected, losing 13% and 5% of its farmland respectively.
Surprisingly, the main problem faced by each area is different from one
another. The problem with over-grazing is especially serious in Oceania,
resulting in 11.3% of its land unsuitable for agriculture. On the other hand,
deforestation that caused 9.8% of agriculture land unusable was the
major problem faced by the European farmers. Although over-cultivation
was the primary threat in North America, it was not a problem at all in
Oceania.
