Phần trả lời:

Dear … ,

I have just returned home from an exciting trip to England and visiting the Science Museum Summer Exhibition was one of the fabulous activities of this tour I cannot wait to share my experience with you

We stayed in England for a week and on our second day, we went to the Science Museum Summer Exhibition, located on Exhibition Road, South Kensington, London SW7 2DD The museum's innovative use of new technologies is unprecedented Initially, I thought that it's not going to be a fun time but to my surprise, I actually got fascinated by the fabulous collection the museum has

The entry fee was $15 but I was lucky to get a free pass from one of my colleagues This museum is visited by a large number of local citizens and international tourists The ground floor displays the invention of robots, with many robots on display and details on how they were developed I learned that theories based on the abacus were further expanded to enhance this technology The first floor displays the extinct animals, skeletons of dinosaurs and the history behind their extermination This was quite interesting The second floor has a shop where you can buy books and souvenirs Kiosks are placed on all floors which provide extensive information about the displayed items

It was a great learning opportunity and a fabulous experience that I will cherish for a long I wish you had been with me when I visited the museum

Why don't you write me back about things you have done recently and enjoyed?

Warm wishes,

USE YOUR MIND

How many tablets do you take? We all take tablets for headaches and other illnesses But are they really necessary The big drug companies make the drugs and tablets that we buy to fight our health problems But could it be possible that many of these drugs and tablets are only good for the bank balances of the drug companies and that there are better ways for us to get over our health problems? According to some experts we should use the power of our minds

Since the 1950s there have been experiments using placebos Placebos are tablets which do not have an effect on the body, so they shouldn’t be able to make us better In the experiments some patients in the group receive real drugs for a health problem, while others receive the placebo

No one knows who has the real drug or who has the placebo In a significant number of these experiments the patients who haven’t received the real drug get better! People think this is perhaps because they are thinking positively and believe they will get better – so they do!

So, can we ‘think’ ourselves better? Perhaps the big drugs companies should start worrying! Choose the best answers

1 The text suggests that drug companies

A sell drugs that are bad for us B sell drugs that are too expensive.

C make a lot of money

2 It’s possible that

A we could manage without drugs B we could live longer without drugs

C we need different sorts of drugs

3 Placebos

A are tablets for headaches B are experiments done since the 1950s

C should not be able to cure health problems

4 In the experiments,

A patients know if they don’t receive the real drug

B patients know it’s a possibility they haven’t received the real drug

C patients know they have been lied to

5 According to the article

A some people can get better if they believe they will

B some people get better if their doctor believes they will

C some people get better because they stop taking drugs

Write an essay on the statement ‘Nuclear power is the only way to ensure that we have enough energy for the future.’ Include the following information:

•an introduction to the main issues

•arguments and evidence supporting the statement

•arguments and evidence supporting the opposite opinion

•a summary of your own opinion

Nuclear technology brought a variety of contributions to our society Military powers have used them to end wars and are still using them as a deterrent Used for civilian reasons, nuclear energy provides electricity with no negative impact on the environment Some people, therefore, believe that the advantages of nuclear power outweigh the disadvantages However, in my opinion, these are all misconceptions, and I don’t support nuclear power

Nuclear energy can foresee to be a viable solution to the impending scarcity of energy due to the depletion of fossil fuels In addition to that, it does not produce greenhouse gases that can pollute the environment The cost of the operating expenses is also lower and it can lead to inexpensive electricity Meanwhile, nuclear weapons help maintain world peace because nations that possess them are far less likely to be attacked Thus, diplomatic talks work out since no country wants to get into conflict

Nevertheless, this technology has a fair share of disadvantages One of them is the radioactive materials it contains that produce radioactive waste as a by-product Exposure to it can lead to diseases like cancer or other disabilities The surrounding will contaminate, so it is not safe for any creature to live Additionally, regarding the atomic bombs, a little error with these can annihilate a country or can even result at the end of the world

In conclusion, I believe that nuclear power is the only way to fulfill the next century power requirement in environment friendly manner Countries that already have nuclear technology should help to other countries to build the nuclear power plant in safer way

Write an essay on the topic ‘Increased surveillance in our society is a bad thing.’

•an introduction to the main issues

•arguments and evidence supporting the statement

•arguments and evidence supporting the opposite opinion

•a summary of your own opinion

Some people believe that increasing surveillance is good for our society, while others are sure that it is bad that people are being watched In this essay, I will try to look at this issue

To my mind, an increase in surveillance affects our society badly Firstly, personal privacy is more important than people can think Public people such as actors, politicians, and others live a very hard life They have no other choice but to hide their personal life If surveillance continues increasing, everyone will have to hide Secondly, people rely too much on technology to solve social problems, while they should be solved in other ways

Nevertheless, some people believe that an increase in surveillance is a good thing They are sure that safety is more important than privacy More surveillance means the police can catch more criminals However, I cannot agree with that point of view because I believe increasing surveillance is the first step towards a police state Moreover, the police might misuse the information

To summarize, I would like to emphasize that increasing surveillance is a threat to personal privacy and the wrong way to solve social problems People should be more aware of their actions but not because of CCTV cameras
