Essay 64 (Expedtions to Difficult Regions)
Nowadays
many scientists and tourists would like to travel to remote natural environments,
such as the South Pole. Do you think the advantages outweigh the
disadvantages?
An increasing number of people
today explore difficult and distant terrains, either to visit these places or
to conduct scientific researches.
Although people do face a great deal of hardships during these activities,
it has greater advantages both for the travelers themselves and the society as a
whole.
To start with, it would be greatly
enjoyable for people who like adventurous travel and novel experiences. They not only take great delight in preparing
physically and psychologically for such demanding expeditions but also
experience a sense of achievement in completing the task. A few examples would be, climbing difficult
terrains like the Himalayan Mountains, expeditions to the Polar Regions or even
the recent space voyages offered for common people.
Again, scientific expeditions to these
regions have also benefitted human society to a great extent in terms of studying
the many unknown facts about the earth and the universe. For example,
scientists to the Polar Regions of the Antarctica and the Arctic have conducted
various experiments on climate change and given us valuable information about how
the melting of the polar ice can affect the earth.
On the other hand, many people have
questioned the huge financial commitments made by governments in conducting
such expeditions, especially for scientific purposes. For instance, many social economists point
out that maintaining space and polar stations would cost enormous amount of
money but the net results usually do not justify the expenditure incurred. Moreover, the risks involved in travelling to
dangerous and distant terrains are enormous and many people have lost their lives
due to extreme cold, difficult landscapes and lack of provisions.
In conclusion, despite certain
objections, the curiosity and passion for people to travel to distant and
difficult regions of the world have only increased. It clearly reveals man’s innate desire to
conquer the unknown. Although it
involves a certain amount of risks and financial commitment, it has greater benefits
for man.

Essay 63 (Field-trips in schools)
Some people believe that children should have important
lessons other than classes in a schools, that is, visiting local businesses or
public buildings.
To what extend do you agree or disagree?
Many progressive schools today often try to provide more
innovative learning experiences to children by taking them to local commercial
establishments or public buildings where they would be exposed to a great deal
of practical knowledge. This practice, I think, would be a significant
opportunity for them to acquire skills and information which are not usually
available in a school environment.
To begin with, classroom learning can sometimes be
tedious and access to ideas and knowledge in nonverbal and practical ways can make
learning creative, fun-filled and more effective. For instance, while
visiting a historical museum children can see and handle real objects and experience artefacts like
coins, inscriptions and utensils of the ancient times. These experiences
would reinforce their study of history and help them to recall information more
easily.
Furthermore, field trips to local businesses can introduce pupils to
direct interaction with objects of learning, which are not easily available in
schools. For example, a visit to a local fish market can introduce
children to various species of sea and river fishes, learn their names and
identify them.
However, sometimes children can take fieldtrips more as a
recreational activity rather than an innovative learning experience. This
can defeat the very purpose of such trips, and therefore some parents are
sceptical about such activities in school.
In conclusion, although field trips from schools offer a
certain amount fun, most children benefit greatly from such educational
tours. Therefore, school authorities should encourage children to visit
local businesses or public buildings in order to make education a more creative
and interesting activity.

Graph (Employment Patterns in Britain)
You should spend about 20 minutes on this task.
The two pie charts below show some
employment patterns in Great Britain in 1992.
Summarise the information by selecting and
reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.
Write at least 150 words.
The pie charts make a comparative study of the proportion of males and
females employed in 6 broad categories,
divided into manual and non-manual occupations.
Among the women the highest proportion was
engaged in clerical or related work, which was closely followed by
other non-manual employments. On
the other hand, managerial and professional jobs were the most
popular occupations with men at 36% and clerical positions
were selected by only an insignificant 9%.
A considerable portion of males also were interested in craft
or related jobs and other manual labour, accounting for half of the total
men-folk. In contrast, the only major
manual occupation that women took up was other manual labour at 27%. Other non-manual professions were not very popular
among both males and females. The
least percentage of workers both categories were general labourers.
In conclusion, more women performed non-manual occupations,
whereas a greater percentage of men preferred manual jobs.
