The bar chart provides information about the number of albums that artists were able to sell in the US in the year 2020. Meanwhile, the table presents the total streams from various platforms recorded for BTS top hits in March of the same year.
Overall, BTS was seen to have the greatest number of album sales in the US in 2020, while Lil Nas X had the lowest sales figure among the seven artists in the report. It is also clear that BTS top hits were mostly streamed on YouTube and played the least on Apple Music.
In detail, with 573,000 album sales, BTS was on top of the US charts, followed by Billie Eilish and Jonas Brothers, selling more than 400,000 albums each. It can also be noted that Ariana Grande was able to record a total of 297,000 album sales, almost three times as much as that of Taylor Swift. The artists with the lowest documented figures were 21 Savage and Lil Nas X at 17,000 and 7,000, respectively.
In terms of the number of streams for BTS top hits in various platforms, YouTube was observed to have the greatest number at 2.36 billion in March 2020. Spotify was also able to register a moderately high figure of 960 million, less than half that for YouTube, whereas QQ and Apple Music had significantly lower numbers, with the total streams not exceeding 80 million.

Some parents buy their children whatever they ask for, and allow their children to do whatever they want.
Is this a good way to raise children?
What consequences could this style of parenting have for children as they get older?
It is true that some parents are quick to please their children and allow them leeway in their behavior. I personally consider this parental approach to be unwise, as it can have some negative implications for a childβs future.
The parenting style in question should generally be avoided for two reasons. The most evident problem with having no restrictions as a child is the possibility of a childβs being spoiled. Children whose wishes are granted unconditionally often become pampered and develop an inflated sense of superiority. This, in turn, makes them ungrateful and fussy children. Additionally, allowing children excessive autonomy in their conduct creates chances for developing bad habits. When unsupervised and unguided, children may be exposed to bad influences on the Internet such as explicit and violent content. They are also at risk of being involved with school bullies and gangs. In no way can a parenting style be justified if it does not involve any amount of supervision.
Having explored some problems with this so-called βfreeβ parenting style, it is important to discuss how it can impact a childβs future. First of all, children who receive excessive attention and enjoy complete freedom are likely to have difficulties as adults. This is because when children are constantly appeased by their parents and never questioned, they develop a frivolous attitude. Care-free children, in turn, dismiss their future studies and job, without which they will experience financial hardships when they are legally independent. More concerning is the possibility of a child growing to become an anti-social individual. Because some parents do not hold their children accountable and make them abide by rules and societal norms, children become ill-behaved. In some extreme cases, poor supervision reinforces criminal behavior in children, which makes them would-be offenders.
In conclusion, parental approach involving excessive pleasing and no supervision is undesirable seeing as it sets children up for failure as an adult and makes them prone to immoral behavior.

Some parents believe that a child should not waste time by reading entertainment books, instead, they should spend time reading educational books only.
To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Some parents are of the view that books children read should be educational rather than entertaining as entertainment books can be a waste of time. Though educational books are superior to entertainment ones in many respects, I take issue with the idea that the latter waste childrenβs time.
Admittedly, educational books can be more beneficial to children than their entertainment counterparts. Knowledge-based books are crucial for better academic attainment. Having read books related to their school curriculum such as textbooks and encyclopedias, children can develop an extensive understanding of school subjects. As a result, they perform well in their school exams, which is essential for their future academic success. Furthermore, entertainment books such as comic books and fantasy novels lack relevance to the real world. This is because these books contain imaginary characters and events, which bear neither resemblance nor importance to those in the actual world. In this sense, entertainment genre offers no extrinsic value to children.
I, on the other hand, consider that entertainment books confer many advantages to young minds. Primarily, books in this genre help foster imagination in children. This is because when reading fantasy books, children are compelled to conjure up images in their mind and engage their imagination. Enhanced imagination, in turn, is critical for their overall mental development. More than just improving their imagination, reading non-educational books provide a much-needed break for children. Academic subjects at schools can be mentally taxing and monotonous, so books outside the school curriculum would serve as an escape from the challenge and monotony of school. This is important for balanced and efficient learning experience at school.
In conclusion, while I partly agree with parents who prefer educational books over entertaining ones for their children, I do not consider the latter to be useless as entertainment books boost childrenβs imagination and serve a crucial recreational purpose.

Nowadays public transport prices are constantly increasing.
Why do you think it is happening?
How can this problem be solved?
Using public transport is becoming increasingly more expensive these days. While there are some reasons that can explain why this is the case, a number of effective measures can be taken to mitigate this problem.
The causes of a rise in public transport fees are varied. First, the majority of vehicles utilized in the public transport sector still run on petrol that is prohibitively expensive in many countries. This trend is compounded by political instability in some parts of the world, which makes the import-export of fuel difficult, bringing about fuel deficiencies and cost increases. Aside from this, the public transport industry has to cover their running expenses, such as employee wages, road maintenance, and research and development. All these costs require heavy investment and translate into a rise in public transport fares.
To remedy the problem of escalating public transport fares, governments and policymakers can take several steps. The former, first of all, can reconsider their support of public transport sector. They, for instance, can cancel taxes imposed on the imports of petrol from overseas. This should minimize the cost of fuel for buses and trains, thereby allowing a reduction in transport fees. Additionally, politicians can make a difference by enacting laws that promote the introduction and use of green public vehicles, such as electric trains and buses. While the costs of purchase can be extremely expensive, this is a far-sighted approach and all the expenses will be paid off in a short amount of time given their cheap operation costs.
In conclusion, the principal causes of increasing costs of public transport are expensive fuel and running costs. Nevertheless, several solutions, such as government-supported fuel imports and the incorporation of electric vehicles, can tackle the issue.

The line graph describes how much electricity was produced from four energy sources in France from 1980 to 2012. Units are measured in terawatt hours.
Overall, electricity generation from nuclear energy grew substantially, making it the primary energy source for the better part of the period. Similarly, the amount of electricity produced from clean energy increased, albeit to a smaller extent. In contrast, thermal and hydroelectric power figures dropped noticeably.
Focusing on increases, in 1980, the production of electricity from nuclear power stood at roughly 70 TW-h. It grew considerably over the next 25 years, reaching a peak of about 425 TW-h in 2005. From 2005 to 2011, the amount of electricity from nuclear energy fluctuated between about 420 and just under 400 TW-h before stabilizing at around 405 TW-h in 2012. Another energy source which grew in use for electricity production was renewables. Virtually no electricity was produced from renewable energy sources until 1996. Following that year, a small amount of electricity was generated from clean energy, and it grew gradually to 25 TW-h in 2012.
As for the remaining sources of electricity, initially ranking first, thermal energy made up 120 TW-h of electricity produced in France. This figure, however, had declined to a low of nearly 45 TW-h by 1988. Following that, it oscillated between 30 and 55 TW-h until 2011, after which it levelled off at just under 50 TW-h in the final year. The amount of electricity from hydroelectric power generally fell, going from approximately 70 TW-h in 1980 to just over 50 TW-h in 2012 after decades of instability.

The flow chart illustrates the production of sugar. A total of 7 distinct stages are involved in the process, ranging from growing sugar canes to drying and cooling. To manufacture sugar, a range of specialized equipment and human labor are required. Atβ¦
The diagram provides information about the production process of sugar from sugar canes.
The initial stages of sugar production happen on the field. First of all, sugar canes are planted, and after about 12-18 months they ripen. At the following stage, the grown sugar canes are harvested, and this can be done in 2 ways: mechanically and manually. In the former, two pieces of machinery - a combine harvester and a tractor with a trailer - are employed simultaneously to harvest the yield, whereas in the latter, plantation laborers harvest sugar canes with the help of sickles.
The remaining phases of the process involve treating sugar canes and obtaining sugar. Having been harvested, sugar canes go through a device called crusher with a couple of wheels on the sides and an opening on the top. This device converts sugar canes into juice, which is collected in a round container next to the machine. The juice is then purified with a funnel-like limestone filter, before being put into an evaporator. In there, the liquid is heated and condensed to obtain syrup. Subsequently, the substance is transferred to a centrifuge that rotates in a counter-clockwise direction and makes sugar crystals, which are then dried and cooled in a barrel in the ultimate stage.
Overall, this process takes place in two locations, commencing with growing sugar canes and culminating with drying and cooling the end-product: sugar. It is also apparent that there are a total of seven stages involved in this linear process that require the use of specialized pieces of machinery and some external influence.

The line graph compares how unemployment rate among young people aged 15-24 changed over a 12-year period (2000-2012) in five European countries.
Overall, the rate of unemployment grew noticeably in all European countries with the exception of Germany. Of a particular note are Italy and Germany, where unemployment rates were highest and lowest respectively for the better part of the period.
In detail, youth unemployment underwent a drastic rise in Britain and Sweden. In 2000, the rate of unemployment stood at 10% in Britain, which had doubled by 2008. This figure grew to about 27% in 2009, but it had fallen to a quarter three years later. Similarly, Sweden also saw its youth unemployment rate climb. While initially the rate stood at just over a tenth, it had gone up twofold by the end of the period.
The figures for the other countries also changed, albeit to a varying degree. The proportion of unemployed youth was just under 30% in Italy in 2000, which dropped to a fifth in 2008. This was followed by an exponential rise, hitting an all-time high of nearly 36% in 2012. The unemployment rate among young people also went up in France, going from 20% in 2000 to 25% in 2012. Finally, despite some fluctuations, the rate of youth unemployment remained unchanged in Germany, at about 10%.

Modern cultures around the world have become similar when compared to the past.
Is it a positive or negative development?
Today, cultural differences are disappearing rapidly in comparison with the past. While this trend has some negative implications, I share the view that it is on the whole a change for the better.
Admittedly, growing cultural homogeneity β the process of cultures becoming similar β has some drawbacks to consider. The most concerning aspect of this process is arguably loss of cultural diversity. This happens when dominant cultures of the West replace those of minority groups, rendering unique beliefs, traditions, and customs obsolete. Having lost cultural nuances, people are likely to lose their identity. One other issue stemming from increased similarity among cultures is diminished creativity. When people generally follow the similar trends and principals such as artforms and business practices, they are likely to lose their sense of ingenuity and novelty. This, in turn, creates a uniform world lacking sophistication and richness.
Despite the possible negative aspects of cultural assimilation across the world, I tend to see it in a positive light. One positive outcome of this trend can be a greater sense of mutual understanding. As people become accepting of other cultures, they grow increasingly like-minded. Take technology as an example. While in the past members of conservative eastern cultures were rather skeptical of technology, they now enjoy using it as much as their western counterparts. This, in effect, has dispelled cultural misunderstandings around the use of technology. An equally important point is increased productivity in the workplace. People working for multinational companies now cooperate better irrespective of their cultural background seeing as they share the same beliefs and priorities. The outcome of this is maximized company output.
In conclusion, as much as I understand cultural assimilation can prove disadvantageous, I lean more towards the view that it fosters a heightened sense of interpersonal understanding and greater workplace efficiency.

Is it a positive or negative development?
Today, cultural differences are disappearing rapidly in comparison with the past. While this trend has some negative implications, I share the view that it is on the whole a change for the better.
Admittedly, growing cultural homogeneity β the process of cultures becoming similar β has some drawbacks to consider. The most concerning aspect of this process is arguably loss of cultural diversity. This happens when dominant cultures of the West replace those of minority groups, rendering unique beliefs, traditions, and customs obsolete. Having lost cultural nuances, people are likely to lose their identity. One other issue stemming from increased similarity among cultures is diminished creativity. When people generally follow the similar trends and principals such as artforms and business practices, they are likely to lose their sense of ingenuity and novelty. This, in turn, creates a uniform world lacking sophistication and richness.
Despite the possible negative aspects of cultural assimilation across the world, I tend to see it in a positive light. One positive outcome of this trend can be a greater sense of mutual understanding. As people become accepting of other cultures, they grow increasingly like-minded. Take technology as an example. While in the past members of conservative eastern cultures were rather skeptical of technology, they now enjoy using it as much as their western counterparts. This, in effect, has dispelled cultural misunderstandings around the use of technology. An equally important point is increased productivity in the workplace. People working for multinational companies now cooperate better irrespective of their cultural background seeing as they share the same beliefs and priorities. The outcome of this is maximized company output.
In conclusion, as much as I understand cultural assimilation can prove disadvantageous, I lean more towards the view that it fosters a heightened sense of interpersonal understanding and greater workplace efficiency.

The maps show the layout of a central library two decades ago and that of today.
20 years ago, the majority of the sections of the library were devoted to reading. Upon entrance, a couple of round tables with chairs around them appeared in the center, while the right-hand side of the entrance was devoted to an enquiry desk and its opposite side to reading newspapers and magazines. On either side of the tables, there were fiction and non-fiction books for adults, a.nd the top right and left corners were used for children's books and multimedia purposes (CDs, videos and computer games), respectively.
By today, this building has been completely altered. The enquiry desk has been replaced by a room for a brand-new cafΓ©, and the room to the left of the entrance has been converted into a computer room. It is also worth noting that the tables in the middle have been removed, making the foyer more spacious. Additionally, the room for children's books has been made into a lecture room, and the space between it and the new cafΓ© now houses an information desk flanked by three self-service machines and adult fiction books. Of a particular note is the expansion of the former multimedia room to host storytelling events and feature children's books, with all reference books being placed just below this room.
Overall, the public library has experienced a complete makeover with the expansion of some rooms. It is also clear that all the rooms have now been repurposed to include new amenities and space for events, with an increased focus on technology.

Some people believe that there will be a reduction in air travel in the future.
Do you think that this trend is a positive or negative development?
Some predict that travelling by air will eventually fall out of favor. Although this development would certainly bring about some positive changes, I share the view that it is generally a change for the worse.
Admittedly, diminished use of air travel can prove advantageous in some respects. The primary benefit would be to the environment. Once air travel frequency falls, less fossil fuel is burned. This is followed by a fall in carbon footprint of airplane companies, which would be a step in the right direction towards solving environmental problems such as global warming and air pollution. One other advantage is a significant drop in air traffic accidents. It is common knowledge that many lives are lost as a result of on-air collisions, rogue airplanes, and military airplane takedowns. Only having discouraged air travel can we hope for a decline in casualties from air travel accidents.
Despite the guaranteed benefits, I prefer to see a potential fall in air travel in a rather negative light. From an economic standpoint, a downturn in the airplane and tourism industries follows reduced use of air travel. That is, airplane manufacturers and companies, along with international tourism agencies, declare major staff layoffs and bankruptcies since their services will no longer be needed as much. More than having an economic impact, less frequent air travel can mean inconvenience and a high cost of travelling for the traveler. Not having the air travel option, many travelers will have to resort to other modes of travelling, such as by train or car, which are not only inconvenient for long trips, but also substantially pricy.
In conclusion, as much as I agree there are some upsides to less frequent air travel, I am more of the view that it is an undesirable change seeing as there are economic and convenience costs involved.

The pie charts show how UK citizens spent their income in the years 1971 and 2001.
Overall, in 1971, most income was expended on food while the reverse was true for computers. Thirty years later, however, expenditure on cars accounted for the highest figure whereas books made up the smallest one. Furthermore, spending on cars, computers, and restaurants grew; however, the figures for the remaining expenditure categories dropped.
In 1971, food was the most spent on item with 44%, which was twice as much as the second biggest spending category β cars. Expenditure on petrol and furniture constituted about a tenth each, closely followed by restaurants and books (7% and 6%). In stark contrast, people in the UK spent by far the least on computers, at 2%.
The spending habits of UK citizens changed remarkably three decades later. Spending on cars virtually doubled, reaching just over two-fifths. This was offset by a decline in food expenditure, which decreased nearly threefold from the initial year to 14%. The figure for computers grew, so did that for eating out. The former rose to 12% while the latter 14%. Furniture and petrol both received less money, at 8% each, and similarly, book purchase dropped to 1%.
