charts compare the proportion of five types of energy production by the different
sources in France in 1995 and 2005.Overall, the major sources of energy were gas
and coal in both the years while nuclear and other kinds of energy sources generated
the minimum amount of energy in France. Petrol was the only source which reduced
in the last year.It is clear from the graph the graph, in 1995, energy produced by coal
comprised of 29.80% and experienced a very slight increase of about 1% in
2005.Likewise, in the first year , gas generated 29.63% which rose marginally to
30.1% in the last year.With regards to nuclear power and other sources, there was an
approximate of 5% increase in the energy production and reached to 10.10% and
9.10% respectively. On the other hand, petrol was the only source which went down

death due to infectious disease per 1000 people in Canada for the same year.Overall,
in the beginning year, Diphtheria was the significant reason of death, after thirty
years, non pandemic became the major disease while causalities by Measles
remained same over the given period. Death rates due to infectious diseases fell
dramatically over the period.It is clear from the graph, in 1900, deaths due to
Diphtheria were at 37% which dropped to 24% in 1930.Typhoid and Scarlet fever fell
from 29% to 18% and 9% to 5% respectively. On the other hand, fatality rates due to
Whooping cough rose up from 11% to 15% and other [non pandemic diseases] grew
13 times more than its initial death rates over the period of thirty years. Measles was
the only disease, holding constant proportion of death rate at 12%.Switching to table
chart, in 1900, 86 out of 1000 people died of infectious diseases in Canada. However,
in 1930 the death rate shrunk tremendously and reached to 32.
The pie chartshows the electricity generated in Germany and France from all
sources and renewable in the year 2009.Summarize the information by selecting
 and reporting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where

relevant.
The four pie charts compare the electricity produced between two countries namely
Germany and France in 2009. The data is calibrated in KHz.Overall, the total outcome
of electricity production was more by renewable and other sources in Germany, than
France. In Germany, conventional thermal was the main source of electricity while
nuclear was the prime factor in France.It is clear from the graph, in Germany, the total
electricity made up from conventional thermal was more than half, at 59.6%, while
France, where it accounted for just 10.3%, with significant ratio of electricity coming
from nuclear power with 76%. In Germany, electricity output was only one fifth of the
total.In regards to Renewable, in Germany, most of the renewable consisted of wind
and biomass, in total around 75%, which was far higher than hydroelectric and solar
which comprised of 17.7%and 6.1% respectively. While, in France, hydroelectric made
up 80.5% of renewable electricity and biomass, wind, solar accounted 8.1%, 10.5% and

The pie chart shows women in poverty in the United States and bar chart
compares poverty rates by gender.

The pie chart gives statistics for the status of women in poverty and the bar chart breaks
down poverty by gender and age demographics in 2008. Looking from an overall
perspective, it is readily apparent that the majority of women in poverty are single
without children, followed by single with children, and much more distantly by married
women with or without offspring. In terms of gender and age, younger people and
women were more likely to be in poverty, particularly female young adults and the
elderly.Looking first of all at the pie chart, an overwhelming 54% of women in poverty
were unmarried without children. This figure was more than double that of single
females with children (26%) and considerably above married women with dependents
(12%) and married women lacking any children (8%).In terms of the rate of poverty
relating to gender and age, more than 20% of those under the age of 5 were in poverty
for both sexes. Poverty rates then generally declined for men and women until the age
of 45 – 54 to relative lows of 7% and 6%, respectively. The exception was that over
20% of women aged 18 – 24 are in poverty, equal to the peak of the youngest
demographic. After the age of 54, poverty likelihood for men rose to 9% for those aged
60-64 and then dropped to 5% for those over 75. For women, poverty levels rose more
steadily to reach 12% for the oldest age group.

The line chart shows trends in terms of employment in the USA in millions and
predictions for the future.

The line chart details the number of individuals working in manufacturing, services, and
agriculture over a 50-year period in the United States. Looking from an overall
perspective, it is readily apparent that agriculture has and will continue to decline greatly
from being the most to least common occupation, while the opposite is true for service
jobs. The trend for manufacturing is less consistent though it is anticipated to be roughly
stable overall.In 1975, the vast majority of workers (60 million) were farmers, a figure in
stark contrast to those in manufacturing (9 million) and agriculture (10 million). After a
two-year period with little change for all jobs, there was a steep decline in the number of
agricultural workers to 42 million by 1979. In the same year, the data for service workers
began to rise consistently, with an expected peak of 90 million by 2025.In comparison,
workers in agriculture have fallen at varying rates and the final statistic is anticipated to
be just over 10 million by 2025. The number for manufacturing rose to 40 million in
1980, where the figures for all categories converged, before a rapid decline that will
continue to 2025 and end at 10 million.
IELTS Task 1 Process: Tea
The diagram featured above details the steps by which pu’erh raw and ripened tea are
produced. Looking from an overall perspective, it is readily apparent that there are 3
main stages beginning with initial deactivation and drying, followed by either aging or
fermentation and finally storage in the case of the raw tea and compression for the ripe
tea.The process for both varieties of tea commences when the leaves are fried in pans
in order to deactivate specific enzymes. This is followed by rolling of the fried leaves
and drying in the sun. In the next stage, the two kinds of tea are treated in different
ways. For the ripe tea, the loose raw tea is fermented with mold and then compressed
to form the final product. In terms of the raw tea, the leaves are first compressed.
Subsequent to this step, the tea is aged, rather than fermented, and the pu’erh raw tea
is then available for use.

Task-2
1. Some people say that Ebooks and modern technology will totally replace
traditional newspaper and magazines to what extent do you agree or disagree.
Technology is flourishing by leaps and bounds and providing us new avenues while
keeping ourselves updated with the latest news and current affairs. Therefore, a fair
amount of people believe, a conventional way of newspaper reading will be
disappeared. I do not completely accord with it because a conventional newspaper is an
easiest and cheapest way to get news.

To embark on, there are multiple reasons why the traditional ways of getting news are
still popular. First of all, reading newspaper has become the ardent habit of many
people. Everyone whether from affluent or middle class are seen desperately waiting for
paper in morning and enjoy it reading with a cup of tea. Moreover, these are the
portable, cheapest an easiest way of knowing about the global activities. It can be
carried from one place to other in the bag and available at economical price. It is so
handy and merely by continuing flip of pages can make you omniscient. Secondly,
electricity and other appliances are not required. Moreover, the other attachments are
like icing on the cake. For instance, the Hindustan times has multiple attachments like
women’s fashion, career guide, culinary art and so on.
However, undoubtedly, technology has given the radical approach to reading news, for
example, videos provide a full and clear view to reading besides that we can download,
share and forward it to our relatives and friends. Needless to say that technophobic will
be having no place in this ever-advanced modern world.

To conclude, the lives of people are drastically affected by advanced versions of

technology yet, in my opinion, it will not be able to pose threat to the existence of
traditional newspaper and magazines.

Some people believe that teenagers should be required to do unpaid community

work in their free time. This can benefit teenagers and the community as well.To
what extent do you agree or disagree.
Children are the backbone of every country. So, there are people who tend to believe
that youngsters should be encouraged to initiate social work as it will result in flourished
society and individualistic growth of youngsters themselves. I, too believe that this
motivation has more benefits than its drawbacks.

To begin with, social work by children can be easily associated with personality
development because, during this drive, they tend to communicate with the variety of
people, leads to polished verbal skills. For example, if they start convincing rural people
to send their children to school they have to be such a convincing attitude along with
developed verbal skills to deal with diverse kind of people there. This improved skill will
help them lifelong in every arena. Apart from this, the true values of life like tolerance,
patience, team spirit, cooperation can be learned. Besides that, young mind serve the
country with full enthusiasm that gives the feeling of fulfillment and self-satisfaction. This
worthiness for themselves brims them with self-confidence and patriotic feeling.
Moreover, going and experiencing multiple culture and tradition make their horizon so
broad that add one more feather in their cap.

However, It is truly said, no rose without thrones. Can the drawbacks of this initiation be
ignored? Children go to school, participate indifferent curriculum activities, endure the
pressure of peers, parents, and teachers and in the competitive world, they should not
be expected to serve society without their self-benefits. This kind of pressure might
bring resentment in their mind.

In conclusion, I believe, the notion of a teenager doing unpaid work is indeed good but
proper monitoring and care should be given to avoid untoward consequences.

3. Do children behave better when they are physically punished or rewarded?

Children are the future of the nation and how they should be raised, is a debatable
issue. Some people believe that they should be exposed to the physical punishment
while other say constant appreciation is required for them. According to me, these
arguments need proper scrutinization before forming an opinion.

To begin with, there are many advantages of conferring rewards to children first of all,
appreciation and verbal praise can have a magical impact on the behavior of the
children because when they are appreciated for good conduct they come to know about
the value of good behavior and try to keep continue with that. The more they brim with
positive comments, the more they are confident. On the other hand, children who are
subjected to artificial physical punishment are seen with lack of self-confidence. A
survey conducted on the behavior of children revealed that a child exposed to punitive
actions my parents are more aggressive and furious than others of his age. Hence
beatings to a child can never be fruitful.

On the contrary, there is no denying the fact that training to the notorious and ferocious
mind is a hard nut to crack because it is true that rod the only logic for the fools.
Moreover, some children repeat mistakes even after being warned and punished, this
type of stubbornness force parents and guardians to give them beatings. Needless to
say, over-pampering may have an adverse effect on children. In this present scenario,
parents have one or two children and this pampering distract them away from their path.

To conclude, children are the tender buds and nurturing them is really a major
responsibility. Therefore, a fair judgment on behavior is required for good upbringing.

4. Some people say that feeling of competition should be encouraged in children

others say they should be taught to become cooperative. What is your
opinion?
Children are the tender buds of the society and they are required to be taught true
values of life. Therefore, some people tend to believe that feeling of competition should
be infused in them while others believe that the possession of cooperative values is
required for them. I will discuss the merits and demerits of both aspects before reaching
to any opinion.

To begin with, there are many reasons why children should be having competional
values? Firstly, competition motivates youngsters to accelerate their efforts to attain a
higher level in education and in other activities. They start doing work hard to compete
with others and understand the value of hard work. This dedication and hard work help
them to stand first everywhere. Secondly, competional values inculcate self-confidence
and self-independence in children. When they participate in activities and compete with
others, they are more likely to have a feeling of self-achievement and fulfillment. They
feel themselves worthy that provide them balanced and peaceful mind. They tend to
become self-reliant and that result in best decision talking ability in them. Moreover,
sense of completion is the need of the hour. Undoubtedly, in the modern era, people
since their childhood till adults, face completion for example- in school there are a
dance competition, race competition, poem competition and when they grow adults,
they face competition in taking a job while taking admission in college and even face
competitive in an exam. Thus, a value is highly required.

On the other hand, it is needless to say that how important is it to inculcate the value of
cooperation. This is the only feeling by which a child can learn teamwork, team spirit,
co-existence, tolerance, and patience. Moreover, if the history is seen it becomes quite
evident that the well-known icons of the society are only those who had a helping and
sacrificing attitude. A self-centered human being cannot earn fame in society. Secondly,
incessant preaching for competition may result in rivalry feeling for the peer group and
others. These rivalry feelings take no time in turning in to jealous and personal grudges.
A heart full of jealousy for others can never hold good for themselves and for others.

To conclude, after gauging both, competitional and cooperative values, I feel that both
values have its own importance. Thus, a child should be brought up by imparting both
equally.

5. Some people think that the government is wasting money on the arts and this
money could be better spent elsewhere.To what extent do you agree or
disagree.
Art is the externalization of the individual skills and reflects the heritage of a country. At
present, art seems to lose its value because of less concern by the government,
however, I feel that art still requires being given more value than other basic necessities
of any nation.

To begin with, there are many reasons why art should be the priority of any country?
First of all, It is the best source of generating revenue income for the government.
Museums, art galleries, and musical concerts are the place, from where a handsome
revenue is taken. Mesmerizing sculptures, beautifully engraved paintings by renowned
artists adorn the beauty of the museums and attract tourists. Undoubtedly, these
tourists are the greatest source of revenue income. These tourists throng in large
number on these historical places and monuments that help to promote local
handicrafts, resulting in providing income to the small-scale industries. Secondly, art is
the cultural and historical reflection of every country. It is the real asset of every country
that brings uniqueness and pride for every country and if a fund is not allocating by the
government then it will be difficult to keep this alive.

However, some opponents of the art say that spending money by a government on art
hampers the development of the country in regards to good infrastructure, road system,
efficient transport system and medical facilities. Moreover, allocating money to
education and medical facilities definitely lessens the literacy rate and increases well
being of the nation that helps a country to grow.

To conclude, art is really an integral part of every country, therefore, the government
should fund art museums and promote artists’ values to keep and maintain the glorify
the history of the country otherwise artists and the art will be lost in oblivion.

6. When a country develops its technology, the traditional skills and ways of life
die out. It is pointless to try and keep them alive.Do you agree and disagree
with this statement?
Technology is flourishing by leaps and bounds and undoubtedly this advancement is
taking a toll on the traditional values. I do believe that in this technological world
traditional values are bound to disappear.

To initiate with, there are many reasons why these conventional values have no
existence in this modern world. First of all, In this fast-paced world, everyone is assisted
with the mobile phone to stay connected with their family and friends. However, in olden
times people used to send letters and stand in the long queues on S.T.D and I.S.D just
for a maturity of one call. This advancement in the modes of communication has
proved that traditional skills are worth for nothing. Secondly, technology has
transformed the world of fashion. Earlier people used to do knitting, stitching, and
designing manually but now machines have made every task easier and comfortable.
To substantiate my view, many of fashion designing students were seen portraying
pictures of model themselves for checking the compatibility of colors but at present, this
work is done in seconds on multifarious advanced software. Apart from this, hardly
anyone is seen purchasing pitcher for cool water because of the invention of
refrigerators.

To conclude, an evolution of modern technology is an ongoing process, so, the time

consuming traditional methods will not be able to maintain their pace with these latest
trends. hence, it is useless and wastage to time to preserve them.

7. Artists need a certain amount of freedom to develop their creativity . some

people think that artists should have total freedom to express any thoughts
and ideas.To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Art is the externalization of the skills of an artist. Therefore, there are the people who
are in the favor to impart full liberty to the artists; however, others oppose this opinion
freely. In my opinion, freedom is necessary up to a greater extent but there should be
proper surveillance on their work to avoid any unpleasant situation.
To begin with, there are many reasons why some people are in favor to give full
freedom to artists. First of all, if they are free from any suppression that helps them to
unveil all the social issues of the society without any fear. They expose the cancerous
spot and request the society to uproot that. Any type of confinement will not let them
express their thoughts. Secondly, these creative artists are the nerve of every nation
because of their extraordinary skills; if they work freely they, undoubtedly, have the
potential to make a masterpiece that brings recognition for every country in the map of
the world.

However, I feel that the full autonomy may have an adverse effect on the individual and
on the society because many times artists are seen painting any objectionable picture,
adding any anti-social dialogue in the films that result in the communal riots and hurt
sentiments of the people. These types of acts cost the life of the people. For example,
once in the popular film, some Hindu gods are shown begging. This film has not only
brought criticism by the Hindu society but also sparked communal riots that have ended
up in the demise of some people. Therefore, they should not be given full freedom.

To sum up, although artists are required to give full liberty for exploring their creativity
yet government should ensure that that very act may not hurt others feeling.

8. Some people think that art is an essential subject for children at school while
others think it is a waste of time.Discuss both views and give your opinion.
There has always been a raging debate whether art is an important subject for children
in schools or it can be neglected in the views of other important subjects. I am going to
scrutinize on both the aspects in further paragraphs before forming an opinion in the
last.

To begin with, on the one side of the coin, there are many reasons for supporting other
important subjects in children’s school curriculum; firstly, modern technology like
computer literacy has become the need of the hour. It is one of the most demanded
skills for a job in every sector. If they spend most of their time in learning art they will
not be able to face cut-throat competitions of this scenario. Moreover, the knowledge of
essential subjects like math, science is highly required in every field. Secondly, Art
despite being highly appreciated, still do not ensure any career growth because most of
the fields like engineering, marketing, IT professionals and managers are a found
graduated and post graduated in these important subjects.

On the other flip side of the coin, art is a creative skill that has wonderful imagination
power. It provides the wings to the fantasy and expresses the feelings without exchange
of words. To illustrate, once I have come across with the painting in which the difference
between the rich and poor’s plight was depicted through painting only. Moreover, music
is also a piece of art and works as a healing therapy into the hectic world. Secondly,
artists bring laurels for the country across the world and ensure that the cultural heritage
of the country may not extinct. For this, they are highly paid and appreciated. That kind
of respects is not less than a flourished career. To conclude, in my views the selections
of the subjects should be left on the students in which they are interested because that
very interest helps them to grow in their life.

9. Nowadays the way many people interact with each other has changed because
of technology. In what ways has technology affected the types of relationships
people make? Has this become a positive or negative development?Give reasons
for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or
experience.

Technology is flourishing by leaps and bounds in each and every field and
communication is not the exception. However, this tremendous change in the ways of
interaction cannot be regarded fruitful straightforwardly because of its certain drawbacks
which spark debate on its positive and negative effects.

To embark on, with regards to positive development, one of the prominent benefits is
that technology has made communication easier and comfortable. At present, people
are hardly one click away from the nears and dears one because of the modern
developments like Skype, video conferencing, Whatsapp and social networking sites,
like facebook. These advancements have made everyone social up to much extent.
Secondly, there are tremendous chances in the way of letters and telegrams were sent
and in making calls. People used to stand in long queues on S.T.D and I.S.D booth but
now mobile phone and advanced gizmos facilitate everyone to interact freely.

On the other hand, certain drawbacks cannot be ignored like today’ people not only
spend a long time in using computers but also do not prefer to meet their friends and
relatives face to face leading to a faded relationship. For instance, one of my childhood
friends preferred to meet me personally on different occasions like a festival and on
birthdays but nowadays, she sends messages for wishing me and send greetings on my
mail. Even most of the family members are suffering from asphyxia, a disease sparks
from isolation. This is really a worrisome issue for the imitate relationships.

To sum up, despite having numerous drawbacks, no one can afford to turn face from
this ever fast modern technology that has to facilitate our lives.

10. Some experts believe that it is better for children to begin learning a foreign
language at primary school rather than secondary school. Do the advantages of
this outweigh its disadvantages?
It is true that language acquisition is a complex process. Therefore, it is advisable to
teach a foreign language at elementary school than secondary. According to me, the
merits of this notion outnumbered its demerits.

To embark on, there are numerous benefits of teaching a foreign language to children in
early age. First of all, children are having a receptive mind with good grasping power.
This age is the learning stage of life. Whatever is learned in child age, can remember
longer in life. Besides that, children are less egoistic and do not afraid of committing a
mistake in learning. As failures are the pillars of success while continuous practicing
they may attain a reasonable level of language. Undoubtedly, a language consists of
different dialects, grammatical rules, intonations, denotation, functions syntax, and style.
By practicing these, a child can possess unmatchable linguistic skills. Secondly,
everyone is in a mad race to fly board in this modern scenario and possession of foreign
language equip them to communicate freely for easy survival. Moreover, polished
communication skills have become a need for the hour of the cutthroat competitional
world.

However, it is also a fact that going to school, doing homework, taking part in extra-
curriculum activities is itself a time-consuming activity for students. If they are exposing
to the regular language teaching sessions that will make them pressurize and
psychological illness. This type of burden will hamper their physical, mental and
psychological growth.

To conclude, even though, teaching foreign language may aggravate their existing
burden yet preparing the young mind for further survival has become mandatory by
imparting linguistic skills.

11. The most school offers some type of physical education program to their
students. Why is it important? Should physical education classes be required or
optional?
Physical education programs are having paramount importance in a school curriculum,
therefore, there have been a number of given opinion, that physical education should be
compulsory because of its mental and physical health benefits for a student, however,
some oppose it. I will discuss both types of opinions before a conclusion.

To begin with, undoubtedly, it has been proved that physical activities are the part and
parcel of healthy life. Students who are exposed to these types of physical exercises
can increase their stamina and resistance power. According to medical science, the
Strong immune system helps to prevent certain diseases like diabetes, obesity, and
indigestion. It not only improves stamina of body but also make one mentally strong.
Besides that, A recent study has revealed that indulgence in these activities do not let
the students sneak time for electronic gadgets.

Furthermore, physical programs are very helpful in inculcating the values of team spirit,
cooperation, and coexistence. Therefore, the array of benefits make it an inevitable part
of the school’s curriculum…

On the other hand, there are the situation and certain circumstances when a physical
program needs to be sacrificed. Students with certain disability and illness somehow
should not be forced to be the part of this. Their impairments prevent them to be active
and physically enthusiastic. Indeed, there is the requirement to have it optional but it is
also imperative to understand that they should be equipped with any other educational
aspects like computer numeracy and soft skills.

In conclusion, physical education should not be optional since it provides physical and
mental growth to a student but the circumstances of impaired candidates should be kept
in view.

12. What are the main reasons and solutions for re-offend?
Ans. Every country has its own laws to combat crime and criminals. However,
nowadays, it is quite apparent that many criminals repeat crime even after being
punished. It has really become a matter of concern because of multiple reasons and
according to me, this kind of problem should be addressed immediately.

To start with, undoubtedly, these criminals get influenced by many reasons like social
isolation, unemployment, psychological disabilities and lack of education. Unfortunately,
they are subjected to humiliations very frequently by society people that disturb them
mentally and pull them in the constant state of depression. The imbalanced mental
condition never lets them get rid of a criminal record. Moreover, their past criminal
background leaves them in the lurch of unemployment. While finding no way to meet
their both ends, they start following the same path of destruction. Lack of knowledge
and skills is the other most contributing factor.

It is true that there is no problem without the solution. The government should get up
from a long slumber and initiate rehabilitation programs for them in which they should
be given vocational training for self-employment. The other sustainable approach is the
psychological nourishment where they can be exposed to regular spiritual and religious
lecture. That will help them to keep them away from criminal activities. Moreover, the
individual should do something on grass root level by remaining sympathy towards them
as Gandhi Ji said; Hate the sin, not the sinner.
Indeed, the aforesaid measures are highly required to curb this problem as a stitch on
time saves nine.

13. Every year several languages die out. Some people think that this is not
important because life will be easier if there are fewer languages in the world.
To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?
Language is the best way of communication. However, it is seen that many languages
are getting disappear in this modern era. There are the people who believe that it will be
convenient if there are fewer languages across the globe. I also support this opinion up
to a greater extent.

To start with, in the justification of my notion, first of all, the less the languages, the
easier the communication. There will be no language barrier and exchange of ideas
among people that will ultimately help in developing harmonious relationships. Besides
that, it will not only result in a flourished relationship among masses but also make
political relation strong as there will be more chances of exchanging scientific research
and invention.

Moreover, having fewer languages will prove the boon for students and businessmen.
The survival in other countries will be convenient. Hence, the disappearance of some
certain languages seems to have the more positive impact on the world.

However, up to some extent, it is irrefutable fact that language diversity shows the
richness of culture and tradition. Fewer languages mean less linguistic skills. These
languages are the identity of some certain community and tribe because languages are
closely associated with the culture of individual and devastation of these vernacular
languages will take a toll on diverse culture.

To sum up, although, it seems to be necessary to save regional languages yet the
declined barriers of languages will result in good psychological relationships among
people.

14. Some people say that Government should break down all the historic building
and replace them with modern buildings. Do you agree or disagree?
It is undeniable fact that every country’s monuments and historic sites are their heritage.
Surprisingly, there are some who feel it less valued and want the government to pull it
down. In my opinion, these are the greatest assets of every country and deserve
respectful attitudes by citizens.

To embark on, in the justification of my notion, every country has its own cultural history
that exhibits old civilization. These historic sites are priceless and irreplaceable. This is
the only way to appraise the next generation about our ancestors and their sacrifices.
Moreover, visiting these locations will help us to learn from our ancestor’s lapse and
provide the better course of action.

Furthermore, these locations are the best source of revenue income for the
government. Tourists visit different places and their spending help the government to
improve Infrastructure of the country. Moreover, tourists show their interest in
purchasing handicraft that results in the growth of a small-scale industry. It increases
the flow of foreign money. Above all questions, it is quite apparent that tourists’ visit
leads to good bonding among the people across the world.

In conclusion, I feel that preserving historical sites means saving the history of the
country. It has Paramount importance because of its array of benefits for existing and
forth coming generations.
