ĐỀ THI NGÀY 05/01/2023

Task 1: The chart below shows the percentage of people born in and outside of Australia living in
cities, towns, and rural areas in 1950 and 2010. Summarise the information by selecting and
reporting the main features of the graph and make comparisons where relevant.

Task 2: Rich countries often give money to poorer countries, but it does not solve poverty.
Therefore, developed countries should give other types of help to poorer countries rather than
financial aid. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

The chart gives information about the percentage of people living in cities, towns, and rural areas in
Australia in 1950 and 2010, in terms of those born in Australia and those born elsewhere.

Overall, it is clear that living in a city was far more common for both groups of people in both 1950
and 2010. Furthermore, the percentage of both groups of people living in cities  increased over the
period.

In 1950, around 50% of people born in Australia lived in a city. Meanwhile, 20% of people born in
Australia lived in a town, compared with around 30% living in rural areas. By 2010, the number of
those living in cities had increased to approximately 65%, while the percentage of those living in
towns and rural areas dropped to a little over 15% each.

On the other hand, the percentage of people born outside of Australia that lived in cities was around
60% in 1950, and 80% in 2010. Notably, a significant portion of those who weren’t born in Australia
lived in rural areas in 1950 (40%); however, this figure dropped substantially in 2010 to around 5%.

Poor countries are often given financial aid from richer nations in an attempt to provide the citizens
of those disadvantaged countries with a better standard of living and quality of life. However, this
kind of aid rarely solves the issue of poverty, and therefore I completely agree that richer nations
should provide other forms of help.

Firstly, in order to truly help people from poorer nations in the long term, governments and citizens
should be provided with good quality education. For example, only in recent times have people
from richer countries spread awareness and education to those from poorer nations about the
simple, yet life-saving practices of hand washing and personal hygiene. This has resulted in
significant improvements in the general health and well-being of people in poorer countries
and reduced the rate of preventable disease and infection. Furthermore, by providing education
on the latest techniques in farming and agriculture, people from poorer nations will be able to farm
more efficiently, giving them more access to food, which will essentially provide them with adequate
nutrition to ward off hunger and disease.

Secondly, rather than simply providing money, richer nations should provide governments from
poorer countries with access to new technology and equipment. By providing such countries
with specialised farming machinery, or life-saving medicines and medical equipment, the lives of
poorer people will be significantly enhanced. Furthermore, while many poorer countries may have
access to significant amounts of natural resources, such as fossil fuels, minerals, and precious
metals, they often do not have the technology or equipment to mine and refine such resources. As a
result, many wealthier countries often take advantage of this situation and mine the resources of
those poorer countries while paying them a fraction of their worth.

In conclusion, while giving financial aid to poor nations can be beneficial in the short term, providing
education and technology will benefit them more in the long run.
