Today's task 1 question ⬆️

Some people think that it is necessary to travel abroad to learn about other countries, but others think that it is not necessary to travel abroad because all the information can be seen on TV and the internet.

Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

While some argue people should travel abroad to discover about other countries and cultures, others suggest widespread access to online information and TV renders travelling unnecessary. I personally support the former view for two reasons.

True, the availability of information about other countries on the Internet and TV can mean that no travelling is needed to explore the world. Unlike in the past, people now have instant and free access to an extensive range of information about virtually any country: whether it be its culture or tourist attractions, one is more often than not guaranteed to find relevant insights and references online about another country. More interesting is the fact that such information is available in video formant more than ever, meaning people can visually experience the culture and beauty of another country in the comforts of their homes.

I, on the other hand, adamantly support travelling abroad for an optimal and enjoyable learning experience of another country. First of all, visiting another country in person allows the traveler to have a first-hand experience of that country. Compared to the vicarious experience of learning about another country online or on TV, people develop thorough insights into a particular country by exploring its culture and lifestyles through their own lenses. As a result, they gain a deeper understanding of that country. Additionally, traveling itself can be a gratifying experience seeing as people can make lasting memories by taking photos and immersing themselves in a new culture and its context. This way, not only do they acquire new insights into another country, but also have an opportunity to indulge themselves in an enjoyable experience.

In conclusion, ease of access to information online and on TV has made it unnecessary to travel abroad to find out about other countries, yet I implore people to consider travelling for ideal and fulfilling learning outcomes.

The line graph describes how many stores were shut down and opened in a particular country in the space of 7 years (2011-2018).

Overall, the number of openings and closures both went down, albeit to varying degrees. Of particular note is the fact that while there were more openings than closures initially, the reverse was true at the end of the period.

In detail, the number of shops opened was at its all-time high of 8,500 in 2011 before it plunged to 4,000 the year after. The figure picked up afterwards, gradually rising to 6,000 in 2014, but the following year it dropped to 4,000 again. Subsequent two years the number of new shops opened virtually stood steady, but it went down by another 1,000 in the year 2008.

The number of closures followed a somewhat different trajectory to that of openings. It stood at around 6,500 in 2011, thereafter which it rose to a chart high of 7,000 two years later. Following that, it dropped to its initial point in 2014 before nose-diving to its all-time low of 500 in 2015. A year later, however, just over 5,000 shops were closed, a trend which persisted till the end of the period.

The diagrams describe how much electricity was produced from renewable and non-renewable energy sources in 2015 as well as some projections for the year 2040.

Overall, in 2015, most electricity was generated from fossil fuel while the least amount from solar. In 2040, fossil fuel will remain to be the main source of energy for electricity production, though its contribution, along with that of nuclear and other renewables, is expected to fall. However, the figures for solar and wind based electricity are predicted to rise. Of particular note is the total energy capacity, which is forecast to double.

In 2015, fossil fuel made up virtually two-thirds of the total electricity production, which was nearly three times as much as the figure for the second biggest electricity source – other renewables (23%). In sharp contrast, just about as much electricity was generated from wind as nuclear, at roughly 6%, while a tiny fraction of energy was solar, at 2%.

Electricity production scheme is predicted to change radically in 2040. Fossil fuel will remain to be the main source of electricity, but its figure will shrink by a fifth, dropping to 44%. On the other hand, the share of solar will grow nine-fold, reaching 18% while that of wind will more than double, constituting 12%. The figures for the remaining categories such as other renewables and nuclear are anticipated to decline negligibly, falling to 21% and 5% respectively. Finally, the total amount of electricity produced will nearly double, going from about 6.7 GW to 11.7 GW.

Some people believe that schoolchildren should do their class work individually. Other people believe that sometimes class works should be done in small groups.
Discuss both views and give your opinion.

It is argued by some that students at school should do their class assignments individually, while others think that they should sometimes be divided into small groups for doing so. I personally agree with the latter.

Completing tasks assigned in the school individually offers two main advantages. One is that schoolchildren learn to become independent. When a physics teacher gives a solo task of solving an equation or a text problem, a student tends to think for themselves and not to rely on others for help. This, in turn, proves particularly useful in life when these students apply to universities and later for a job. Secondly, it is easier to gather concentration for individual tasks than for collective ones. The reason for this is that group work normally involves exchanging ideas, arguing and reaching a common ground, all of which might shift the focus of those involved. For these reasons, it might seem better to work alone on classroom tasks.

That notwithstanding, I would argue that working in a team for class tasks is far more beneficial. Firstly, learners realize that collaboration is the key to success and that many minds are a lot better than just one. For example, a group of three or four students can more swiftly and accurately find a solution to a complex math problem, as each approaches the given task from a different perspective. This method of classroom management is also likely to be more effective. More often than not, educators place a mix of low- and high-achievers in a group, thereby ensuring better knowledge acquisition because they help one another. As a result, teachers and students alike are likely to be content with the results achieved.

In conclusion, some might put forward that doing class tasks individually is more advantageous than group work, for it teaches independence and fosters better concentration. I, however, support those who favor group-based learning, not only because participants learn how to move as a team, but also because those lagging behind receive some help.

"The Chain" by Fleetwood Mac hits different in windy weather

Combine that with mild sunshine and beautiful natural scenery, you're in heaven

The images show the layout of a town in a prior to and following the volcanic eruption that occurred on an island in the Atlantic Ocean.

Before the eruption, the town was an important port area able to accommodate 50-60 ships, which sailed to both Europe and America. It had a port in the center with a crane for loading and unloading cargoes. On the coastline, a town square with multiple buildings and a castle right next to the port were found.

The eruption, however, resulted in two lava flows which altered the town noticeably. The first of these, happening on May 6 in 1970, approached from north towards the west of the town and covered half of the town square, not reaching the coastline. The second, in turn, occurred after 6 days and reached the coastline from the eastern side, but it didn't deal any damage to property. Although the port, the castle and part of the town square remained intact, all the ships abandoned the town.

Overall, these two consecutive lava flows had a serious impact on the town. Even though only the first one dealt some structural damage, engulfing part of the town square, all the ships disappeared from the town, resulting in the abandonment of the area.

The bar chart provides information on the amount of income generated per year by interpreters, translators and language teachers in five different cities. The unit is measured in US dollars.

Interpreters earn the most in Toronto, at $80,000, followed closely by those in Munich with around $75,000. While Paris and Dubai rank next with about $65,000 and $60,000, Mexico comes nowhere near the others, at just under $20,000.

When it comes to translators, they make pretty much the same amount in Toronto, Munich and Paris, at $65,000 each. Dubai ranks second with $50,000, but Mexican translators generate the least again, at slightly under $20,000.

As for language teachers, the disparity in income per year between cities grows larger. Those in Toronto top the chart by making approximately $65,000, which is $5,000 more compared to the figures for Munich and Dubai. Teachers in Paris, meanwhile, earn far less than the above three, at $45,000, whereas those in Mexico close the list making more than twice as less than those in Paris.

Overall, in each of the cities given, there is a small difference between the incomes of people doing these language-related jobs, with the most significant one being noted in Paris. It is also apparent that the incomes in Munich and Toronto are generally the highest, whereas in Mexico they are the lowest.
