Therefore I agree that although a wholly academic curriculum would suit and benefit some young people,
I believe that for most students non-academic subjects are important inclusions still in todays syllabuses.

Task 2 (Sample 1)
The animal experimentation is very difficult issue with a lots of people feeling very strongly of it, we are
use the animals for the experimentation in different way, one of most big problem is for test the
cosmetics, the images of animals with things put in their eyes for so we are able to look a bit better make
many people very angry. Is it necessary? The companies such as the body shop said that they do not
experiment on animals and they produce good cosmetics who make money, I am not agree that making
the cosmetics that make our faces better does not mean the animals must suffering in terrible ways, it
does not seem moral for me. On the other hand we also use the animals for test the new drugs. Without
these new drugs people die and suffer when they need not, some of the people believe that the animals
should not suffer and die so that we can avoid it, I am not agree here, these people will change the minds
when it is they who are die or one of their children, it is sad that the animals have to suffer for this thing
but here I believe that the suffering is justify. Is there alternative to the animal experimentation. Im not
expert but I do not think so, the monkeys are most near biology animals and without test to them, we
cannot sure of effects of the new drugs, we test on humans also but only when we know the drugs not a
problem to us, the testing on humans without the tests on the animals could make the tragedies. So in
conclusion I do not believe that the animal testing is justify for not essential things but for essential
things I believe that there is not choice and it is justify. (307 words)
Task 2 (Sample 2)
Most of us do not have a clear understanding about animal experimentation. We only focus on the medical
achievements we had archived in the past then we do not realize the truth that our achievements by
testing on animal is very little compared to the number of animal are being killed in laboratories of
medical companies over the world each year. Forcing animal to suffer painfulness is cruel and not
justified. Animal can't talk but they can feel and they should have their own right.
We must admit that testing on animal is a very important method to find out whether new medical is
harmfulness to human health or not. By using that way, scientists had explored many new medicines,
vaccines for deadly diseases like polio, rabies, rubella, and tuberculosis which have been saving many
people's lives today. However, applying that methods for today is outdated. In the past, the infrastructure
of medical laboratories was poor and scarce. The scientists didn't have modern equipment supporting for
their research as we have today. They could not perform testing on human and using animal for their
testing was only one choice they had. The evolution of technology, especially is the invent of computer,
we have many technologies which can be supporting our scientists. Consequently, killing animal is not
necessary and should be banned.
Another important aspect is that animal has their own physical and mental behaviors which completely
different with humans behaviors. Rats, mice, rabbits and even chimpanzee - the human-nearest animal
will behave in uncontrolled ways when they are kept in cages, with chemicals injected into their body.
The experimentation like that often does not have high accuracy we need and we are absolutely wasting
time and money on these tests. Medicines invented by this way will bring potential danger to the health
of people.
In conclusion, I always disagree with testing on animal. We are living in a society with our moral
standards, our right and we should treat animal well by using that way.
Last, but not least, when taking environment into account, people must remember that the more newspapers
are published, the more trees are cut down. At this point, newspapers' production will have to face
environmentalists on its way to be alive.
In conclusion, it might be unpleasant for some newspapers to witness the extinction of the type of media.
However, this should be seen as a result of the increasing innovations in media technology and in our modern
society.
undeveloped nations deserve equal chances to survive and overcome sickness. Dying from totally curable
diseases is a ridiculous thing while it is the matter of limited access to foreign medicines.
However, I reckon that international drug corporations should be helped to provide their products to patients.
In some particular circumstances, although the prices are widely affordable, it is the authority who puts too
much tax and tariff on these companies and this results in the dilemma in which the benefits of governments,
patients and companies are intangibly damaged. Consequently, legislation about imported medical products
should be carefully processed and released in order to attract investors.
To conclude, from my own point of view, no one should be excluded from the opportunity to live healthily.
Governments and involved companies need to maintain a united front on opinion to benefit civilians.

that we would not have had. The famous example is non-stick pans! Supporters also point out that it is in
human nature to strive to discover the unknown and that we can progress in all ways by unlocking the
secrets of the stars. These are all valid points.
On the other hand how can we as human beings justify the billions of dollars spent sending people into
space so we can have non-stick pans while millions of people around the world are dying of disease and
famine? With the money spent on space exploration, wells could be dug, farmland could be developed,
medicine could be bought, schools and colleges could be built, and teachers, doctors and nurses could be
trained. Even if we could justify money on exploration, wouldnt it be better to spend the money on
exploring the sea on our own planet that could offer enough food to provide for the entire world?
From what I have said in this essay it would seem that I would agree that money should be spent on better
things than space exploration. However, this is not the case. I understand all the reasons for spending
money on better things but I also strongly believe that it is necessary that the human race should
continually strive to develop our technology and broaden our horizons. The money in the long run is well
spent on space exploration. (272 words)
I only know one country that has national service for both men and women and that is Israel. This country
definitely needs national service due to the terrible situation in which it finds itself. They have to have
compulsory national service though I am sure that they would scrap it if their security situation changed.
In conclusion I feel that national service is a necessary evil in some countries as they feel they have to
have a force of men trained that can protect their country. In my opinion though, countries that can do
with just a professional army do not need national service anymore and, by stopping it, they no longer
have the extra cost of funding it. I therefore disagree with the statement that all countries should adopt

I agree with this statement very much as this is an issue that I feel strongly about. I feel very much
that we should reduce the amount of fossil fuels that we use and I believe that investment by governments
in public transport will help reduce the increase in transport pollution.
At rush hour every city in the world experiences huge congestion on their roads. This is because nearly
everyone who can afford a car owns one and uses it whenever they can. Very often cars which can fit five
people in them only have one occupant. Just imagine the amount of unnecessary pollution! Now a bus with
fifty seats could carry drivers of fifty cars. Pollution would be hugely reduced. To force more people into
using public transport, governments could increase private fuel prices and car taxes.
Some people say that buses are not reliable enough, that there are not enough of them and that the
prices have become too high. However, if the government invests more so that there are many more buses
and trains, all at cheaper prices, then more people would use them and so the money taken would pay for the
extra buses and employees. Governments could in turn reduce fuel prices for public transport so that prices
could be lowered more easily.
Of course it would be even better if we could get everyone to use transport that didnt use fossil fuels at all.
Denmark and Holland are famous for having lots of people who travel to work and back by bicycle.
Maybe this will happen more in the future.
In my view realistic or am I just a dreamer? I feel that its just a dream. People prefer their own cars
and dont like buses. I still feel though that governments should try. (300 words)
Therefore I hope I have shown that success can mean different things to different people and that,
for me, the basis of success is happiness. (330 words)
Japanese imports started at $3 billion in 1994 and they rose steadily to just under $7 billion in 1997.
They then dropped to approximately $4 billion in 1999 before rising again to about $6 billion in 2000.
Imports then dropped dramatically to about $3 billion in 2001 and then dropped further to about $2 billion in
2004.

Task 2
It is undeniable that the US film industry dominates world cinema. This is not to say that there are not
flourishing film industries in other countries. Many great films are released from many different countries
and a lot of these films are technically as good and, in artistic terms, often much better than the Hollywood
Style films that we know so well. I believe that governments ought to invest in their own film industries and
also to assist them in other ways such as tax breaks. By doing this their industries will become more
successful and be more able to express their own culture.
As an example of this I would like to look at the Indian film industry. Bollywood as it is known has
become hugely successful. The more successful Bollywood has become, the more it has attracted investment.
Thus after some time the industry contributed on a large scale to the Indian economy. Thus money initially
invested in film industries is not money thrown away. The worry is that of course you need people of talent
and vision to invest in. So, the people in charge of investment must know what they are doing.
The UK film industry has received help from the government and high quality, money-making films
have been the result. In order to compete with the US though, this investment must continue. Only then can
films around the world continue to portray cultures and viewpoints different to that the US film industry. I
therefore wholeheartedly agree that governments should invest in their own film industries to protect and
develop their own cultures. (267 words)
The fuel pellets are then used in nuclear power stations to provide up to 7 billion kilowatts of
electricity from just one station. After the fuel has been used for about four years it is removed from the
power station and stored. Some of the used fuel can be re-processed and re-used in a power station to
produce more electricity.
Finally, old stored fuel that cannot be re-processed is put into stainless steel containers and then
buried deep in the ground.
Task 2
It is true that all of the major systems around the world, whether they are to do with government,
welfare or education, are based and reliant on computers. I do not, however, believe that this has created
excessive risks.
Before the advent of computers, human society survived very well. It is true that if all computers
crashed, this would cause huge problems but it would only mean that we would go back to the situation that
we had before. People would suffer, maybe I would too, but the world would not end. Reliance on certain
systems is the price that we pay for progress.
The very idea that all computers could crash is ludicrous anyway. All places which deal in life and
death situations have backup generators that can provide power in the event of a power cut. Power cuts are
only temporary and if something happened that completely destroyed the electrical systems of a country, such
as nuclear war, people would have far more important things to worry about. Computers are now reliable and
we have armies of technicians who can repair or replace faulty systems. Things can and will go wrong but
this would happen whether we were reliant on computer systems or on humans. The difference is that
computers will make fewer mistakes from day to day!
In conclusion I would therefore say that I disagree with the idea that our reliance on computer
technology has created a dangerous situation. I believe our lives are better and safer because of this
reliance.
