Do you support the use of nuclear technology to be used for constructive purposes?

In todays world, many people are afraid of the nuclear tehnologies and their
consequences. The reason for this fear is the risk of a nuclear war. People are right in
this fear due to a destructive nuclear bombing in Japan 80 years ago. But limiting
nuclear technologies to war and weapons can make us forget about their benefits in
other fields like energy and medicine. Therefore, I definitely support the use of
nuclear technology for a number of reasons.
Firstly, we can produce a large quantity of clean energy with nuclear
technologies. One of the best examples for nuclear technology usage in clean energy
production is France, which produces most of its energy from nuclear plants to meet
its needs. Nuclear technologies have been heating and electrifying homes and
factories in France for more than 60 years. Thanks to this large amount of clean
energy production, France can limit fossil energy production and so can create a safer
and cleaner habitat for its people.
Secondly, nuclear tecnologies can contribute a lot to us in critical fields like
medicine. Nuclear technologies are intensively used in medical technology. For
instance, medical experts have been able to effectively diagnose and cure diseases
for many years. Radiothreaphy and X-ray are among the most used nuclear
technologies. Without their contribution, death rates in critical cases such as cancer
and brain tumors could have been much higher in hospitals.
Thirdly, nuclear technologies can produce cost-effective goods and services
compared to other technologies. As an example, compared to the cost of energy
production through solar, wind and hydro power, the costs are incomparably lower in
nuclear power plants. In addition, nuclear technologies have no dependence on
natural resources and are therefore reliable, which is an extra advantage in terms of
cost-effectiveness.
In conclusion , nuclear technologies have many advantages for our societies. As
long as human beings use them constructively, not only our generation but also
future generations can get their rewards in many fields.
The bar chart illustrates various modes of transport used by people to travel to and
from work in a European city in 1960, 1980 and 2000.
In 1960s, car usage starts at the bottom with a percantage of slightly more than 5
while it is followed by bus usage with close to 17 percent. On the other hand, bike
usage is a slightly larger than 25 percent whereas walking is with a percantage of
slightly lower than 35.
In 1980s, things starts to change , walking becomes the least used choice, decreasing
to nearly half at above 15 percent. As for bike usage, it dropped to 20 percent. While
car usage jumped to over 20 percent, bus usage also jumped to over 25 percent.
In 2000s, car usage takes the lead with more than 35 percent and the second highest
usage is followed by bus at more than 15 percent. The lowest rates in the use of
transport modes are in bike usage at slightly more than 5 percent and in foot mode at
slightly lower than 10 percent.
Overall , the car usage skyrocketed from 5 percent to nearly 35 percent while bike
and foot transport methods fell steadily from 1960s to 2000s.

ORIGINAL TEXT
The bar chart shows the changing patterns of transport use in a European city during
the period from 1960 to 2000. In brief, the chart shows that the use of the car as a
means of transport dramatically increased over the period shown, while the others
fell.
In detail, in 1960 the motor car was used least as a method of transport with only
about 7% of the population using this method but car use grew steadily and strongly
to finally reach about 37% of the population by 2000. This was a massive 5-fold
increase in use.
Over this same period, however, the popularity of walking, which had been the most
popular means of transport with 35% of the population in 1960 7 having it as their
preferred way of getting around, fell to 10%. Bicycle use also fell from a high of about
27% in 1960 to just 7% in 2000.
On the other hand, bus use was more erratic being popular with almost 20% of the
population in 1960 and rising to a peak of about 27% in 1980 before falling back to
about 18% in 2000.
