1 Question: The picture shows the process of growing and making products from pineapples.

Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features.

ANSWER (8.0+):

The process illustrates how pineapples are cultivated and prepared for sale Overall, it requires approximately a year for a pineapple to reach full maturity Depending on the size, harvested pineapples can be processed into juice,

canned, or shipped as fresh produce

Regarding the growing process, pineapple plants are carefully arranged with a spacing of 26 cm between each plant and a temperature of about 28 to 30

degrees Celsius After 7 months, chemicals are introduced into the cultivation

process, and after a 5-month period, pineapples that have reached 30 cm in

height and 2 kg in weight are considered ready for harvest

Concerning the production process, harvested pineapples of all sizes are first

washed with water After that, the smaller-sized fruits are processed to remove

leaves and the outer rind, and subsequently put in an extractor for juice For

medium-size ones, after removing the leaves and outer skin, producers slice

and pack them in cans for retail In contrast, larger pineapples are left uncut but

coated in wax, and stacked in crates for shipment (Word count: 174)

4 Question: The graph below shows a typical American and a Japanese

office Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main

features and make comparisons where relevant.

ANSWER (8.0+):

The maps present the differences between typical offices in America and Japan

Overall, Japanese companies prefer an open working space and it also has a

more hierarchical structure with managers presented with clear views of

employees, whereas an American office is divided into designated sections and

rooms for managers and work-related facilities.

Looking at the entrance and windows, an office in the United States generally has twice as many doors and windows as one in Japan Specifically, the diagram presents four doors at each corner of the rectangular floor plan and two long sets

of windows on either wall of an American office area, whereas a Japanese

working space is presented with just two doors and one window installed along

a wall at the top

Regarding the interior layout, there are two rooms for section managers and a

larger one for a department manager on the right side of an American office

Desks for employees are arranged in two rows in the center, with a printer

room, storage area and two conference rooms located to the left of the office In

comparison, the seating arrangement of a Japanese office reflects a clearer

management hierarchy with a wide department manager desk and two smaller

section manager desks at the top of the single room Their subordinates face

each other and share large rectangular tables in the lower section of the layout

5 Question: The diagram below shows a simple system that turns dirty water into clean water.

Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant.

ANSWER (8.0+):

The given diagram illustrates how to produce drinking water by using a simple

water-filter assembly device Overall, the system consists of two storage drums

arranged to filter and then store the water There are four main stages in the process, starting with pouring in unclean water, followed by filtering and

storage, and culminating with opening of the tap for clean water

In the first two stages, after the lid has been removed, unpurified water is

poured into an initial, elevated plastic drum The water then penetrates

downwards through three filtering layers Initially, the water undergoes a sand

filtration process to eliminate impurities, subsequent to a further filtration step

involving a layer of charcoal, and purification through the utilization of

gravel A pipe system with one end at the bottom of this drum then leads the purified water down to the less elevated storage drum

In the final stages, the filtered water is stored in the lower drum with a closed lid A tap near the bottom of this drum allows users to utilize the cleaned

drinking water

6 Question: Some countries achieve international success by building

specialized facilities to train top athletes instead of providing sports facilities that everyone can use Is it a positive or negative development?

ANSWER (8.0+):

It is observed that global prestige is achieved by constructing specific

premises to upskill elite athletes in lieu of offering sports facilities for public

use in some parts of the world I believe that this has detrimental impacts on citizens, despite the fact that it can create favourite conditions for athletes to

prosper.

On the one hand, the erection of specialized facilities for training talented

athletes can facilitate their capacities This is because outstanding

sportspeople can be given better chances to further improve themselves,

enabling them to maximise their potential Therefore, they can give optimal

performances in global competitions and are more likely to achieve

rewards and success in sports, making great contributions to national

achievements in this field For instance, the Vietnamese government provided

funds to establish football institutions such as Hoang Anh Gia Lai to train and

support children who have an innate ability As a result, numerous young

talented football players such as Xuan Truong and Tuan Anh were trained

intensively and excelled in football matches, enhancing the position of Vietnam

in international sports

On the other hand, this propensity can induce two noticeable drawbacks Chief

of these is that it adversely affects public health More specifically, as the state

budget is spent on building facilities for training top athletes in lieu of

providing community sports facilities, there would be a shortage of open

areas such as parks, gardens and squares which offer an abundance of

resources for free exercise Consequently, fewer places are offered for

residents to exercise, potentially encouraging a sedentary lifestyle in the

community and weakening citizens’ wellbeing Another drawback is that it can

trigger great dissatisfaction among citizens As they pay taxes to enrich the

government budget they may argue they deserve to receive free fitness

equipment and spaces, and may feel discontent if the state funding is allocated

to serve a small number of recipients only

In conclusion, although investing in specialized facilities for professional sports

people only can enhance their performances and improve a nation’s standing, I

maintain that its consequences including deteriorating public health and

generating dissatisfaction among individuals in society are more significant

7 Question: Video records are better to learn about the way other people in the world live than written documents To what extent do you agree or

disagree?

ANSWER (8.0+):

It is stated that acquiring information about global lifestyles through videos is

more effective than reading written materials Although I admit that video

recordings leave more of a lasting impact on people’s minds, I mostly

disagree with this notion since they are not suitable for all learners and limited

in their availability.

Admittedly, video recordings can be a valid approach to gain a greater

understanding about different lives in various nations on account of better

visualisation To explain, images and audio recordings enable people to observe

things in an authentic way, leaving better impressions in their minds and thus

facilitating their memories In other words, by watching videos, they can

experience these customs firsthand in lieu of imagining them through a

secondhand perspective when they read written documents For example, a

video about the harsh living conditions of residents in Africa having to use dirty water for household tasks and their desperate voices in the video would be more

indelible in viewers’ minds than simply text However, there are two reasons

for my disagreement Chief of these is that learning via videos is not an optimal medium for all types of learners This is because those who favor other

learning styles such as reading and writing may prefer written documents

instead Another justification is that videos are lacking in their attainability

More specifically, numerous materials are recorded in written form only,

especially about details in the past due to the lack of technology, thus it is hard for people to access information regarding important individuals and events through videos alone For instance, for those who want to research eating habits

of people in a country, it is more useful for them to choose articles or references

because there is a scarcity of videos that illustrate real dietary patterns.

In conclusion, the value of video recordings is significant in terms of enhancing visualisation; however, I maintain that they are not suitable for those who

follow other learning styles and written documents are still of importance

because a wider range of information is offered It is advisable that people should opt for the materials that suit their preferences and the specific topic (Word count: 360)

8 Question: Nowadays, not enough students choose science subjects in

university in many countries Why? What will be effects on society?

ANSWER (8.0+):

It is observed that the number of students opting for science as a major in

tertiary education is lacking in many parts of the world This propensity is

attributed to the complex nature of this subject and lower incomes of science

graduates However, this can prompt the shortage of employees in science

related sectors and the lack of inventions.

There are two main driving factors behind the tendency of university students to neglect science subjects Chief of these is their complexity More specifically, learners have to remember numerous formulae and accumulate a substantial

amount of knowledge in different areas Additionally, they need to form and

foster their problem-solving skills to be able to solve complex scientific

problems Another justification for the decreasing popularity of science is that

other majors enable students to seek higher-paying jobs in the future For

instance, Vietnamese whose majors include business and social services can

gain more lucrative incomes, compared to the meager earnings of scientists.

Nevertheless, a shortage of learners in scientific fields can adversely affect
