in cost of different food products in a seven-year period from 2007 and alterations in the acquisition of these commodities among low-income households from 2007-2012 in Britain Overall, the highest rate of uplift was seen in fish’s price Additionally, with the exception of/BELONGING TO flour, other products experienced a decline in purchases made by low-income families As can be seen from the first chart, fish registered a 37-percent increase, overtaking fruit and flower by a narrow/wide margin Meanwhile, the cost growth of vegetables, soft drinks and cheese shared comparable figures, reaching approximately 25%, 28% and 30% respectively A similarity in statistics was also recorded in fruit and flower with nearly 35% each far exceed much surpass With respect to the second chart, vegetables, soft drinks, cheese, fruit and fish all saw a decline in sales due to the price increase Among these, vegetables, soft drinks and cheese witnessed a negligible (minimal/marginal/fractional) decrease of roughly 5% while that of fruit and fish were nearly quadruple However, the reverse is true for flour with an escalation to over 80% → ESCALATE >< acceleration/accelerate the rate/pace of uplift accelerated by/to 40% Ver 2: Social media is becoming increasingly popular among people in this day and age However, this trend is accompanied by sensationalism, which can render news deceptive or negative While some cite accessibility and appeal as merits of this phenomenon, others opine that it can induce misunderstanding and inaccuracy From my perspective, the latter view is agreeable for the following reasons some people cite A and B as merits/ DEMERIT/REASONS/ROOTS of: → A and B can be cited as merits/ DEMERITS of: On the one hand, news exaggeration is not entirely detrimental Firstly, it contributes to the fight against ignorance Specifically, many people nowadays are unaware of their surroundings Therefore, the sensational headlines and contents can facilitate capturing people’s attention and interest As a result, news may gain importance in their life as people start to care more about current events and burning/grinding issues all over the world On the other hand, the adverse/detrimental impacts caused by this tendency outweigh its merits To begin with, readers may assume magnified information as the truth Consequently, reading sensationalised news can lead to false impressions, hence the distortion of people’s view For example, while plane crashes always make the news headlines, yet car and motorbike accidents, which kill far more people, receive less publication Unsurprisingly, a considerable number of people have a fear of flying, whilst almost no one dreads driving In conclusion, it is true that news sensationalism can attract people’s attention to global current events However, I am firmly convinced of its negative effects due to readers’ distorted view as well as other (UN)FEASIBLE/VIABLE/ applicable methods Ver 1: Given are the bar charts comparing six types of food in terms of price and consumption in Britain in a four-year period starting from 2007 The data sources clearly communicate that fish registered the most significant growth in price It is also noticeable that with the exception of flour, the remaining categories all witnessed decline in purchases throughout the given period Topping the chart with a rise of roughly 37% in price, the figure for fish price was 3% higher than that of its fruit and flour counterparts In contrast, the price of vegetables climbed by 25%, only two-thirds the data/price rise of fish Meanwhile, soft drinks and cheese categories shared comparable figures of around 30% A increased = A was found/recorded/reported to increase Regarding purchases in low-income families, flour was recorded/REPORTED/FOUND to experience a surge of approximately 90% Contrariwise, the purchase of fish dipped by nearly 20%, followed by fruit with 18% In the meantime, similar patterns can be seen in vegetables, soft drinks and cheese with an average fall of 5% Ver 2: In this day and age, it is irrefutable/without doubt that/IT GOES without saying/needless to say the media plays a pivotal/integral/indispensable role in our daily life Despite its merits especially in information dissemination, some people claim that the practice of exaggerating news has distorted the public’s perception of certain events From my personal perspective, I am in support of this point of view To begin with, reading the news that is not entirely true to the actual events can give the public a false impression In numerous today’s newspapers, particularly online ones, the editors tend to report stories in an overly dramatic manner in order to provoke interest and excitement However, those added details sometimes can be ambiguous which consequently mislead people into misperceptions For instance, in the context of the current outbreak of coronavirus, some people reported several unreal infected cases which thus confused and generated worries among the population To conclude, the media should not just amplify the stories at the expense of accuracy to raise readership and ratings as this will lead to grave ramifications/repercussions (=serious consequences) including the diversion of the people’s beliefs as well as the evasion of trust of the public in journalism Ver 3: Given are two bar charts comparing six different kinds of food products in terms of their retail price rise from 2007 to 2014 and their purchases changes among low-income families from 2007 to 2012 The data clearly communicates that there was an ascending trend in the retail price of all food groups On the other hand, with the exception of flour, the other five experienced a decrease in food purchases As can be clearly seen from the first bar chart, fish took the lead with over 35% of price rise Following were fruit and flour, both of which shared comparable figures of around 34% Dwarfed by fruit’s figure, cheese’s occupied 30% of price rise, nearly 2% and 5% greater than that of soft drinks and vegetables respectively In terms of the second bar chart, flour accounted for the most significant proportion, whose figure for food purchases increased up to 80% over the period In contrast, there was a roughly 20-percent decrease in food purchases of fish, followed by fruit (around 18%) The chart also witnessed a similarity in the figures for the other three namely vegetables, soft drinks and cheese, particularly around 7% A was dwarfed by B Ver 2: Media sensationalism in news coverage is becoming an increasingly common sight in this day and age Some people opine that it is a way of appealing the public to news reports, while others counter that this trend may pose a threat/hazard/menace to the accuracy of such news I find myself in firm agreement with/support of the second idea First of all, reports including misleading words can lead to misconception in readers A number of people have the tendency of looking through the news outline or catching the news outline only Therefore, some may end up assuming the truth based on some “clickbait” headlines or confusing descriptions This can result in a false comprehension of the matters among the public Secondly, there are other ways of drawing the public attention without falsely making news reports Inevitably, the audience may get bored with the plainly reported news coverage In such a case, it is reasonable if reporters utilize those exaggerated languages to make news coverages more tempting as long as they are backed up with facts In this way, news reports can be more appealing and still offering the truths to the public In conclusion, I am of the strong belief that making use of distorted words in news reports to interest readers can have adverse influence in the public’s perception of the issues Instead, reportes should resort to other ways of attracting the audience without ignoring the matter of truth in these news coverages VER 4: The first given bar chart provides data regarding the price increase on six different products from 2007 to 2014 in the UK while the second one compares the changes in terms of purchases of the same products among the low-income families from 2007 to 2012 Overall, the chart witnessed a major increase in the retail price of all products with the highest figure belonging to the category of Fish Meanwhile, from 2007 to 2012, flour purchases were growing in popularity among the low-income, as opposed to other goods As can be clearly observed from the first chart, fish price saw the highest rate of uplift with almost 36%, followed by that of fruit and flour, which shared a similar pattern of 34% The figure of soft drinks and cheese, on the other hand, grew by 28% and 30% respectively while vegetable’s price saw the least increase of 25% Concerning the second chart, it is noticeable that with the exception of flour purchases, whose figure increased dramatically by almost 90%, other types of products were less popular among the poorer families In 2012, the purchase of fruit and fish decreased by 18% and 19% respectively, far exceeding that of soft drinks, vegetables and cheese, which remained under 5% VER 2: (6.5+) The media is responsible for most of the news people read these days However, it is condemned for providing a large proportion of distorted and misleading pieces of stories While some people opine that this is for the sake of readers, I believe that this practice is totally (un)justified/(un)justifiable I believe that A is justifiable/justified (dong y voi A) >< I believe that A is unjustifiable/unjustified (khong dong y voi A) I find this claim justifiable to a certain extent = i partly agree with this claim On the one hand, news should never be distorted in the first place As a matter of fact, the media always plays a critical role in providing people with access to information, whose underlying Ver 1: The given pie charts illustrate the amount of energy consumption for various purposes and the proportion of greenhouse gas emissions in an average Australian household Overall, the highest proportion of energy is spent on heating while water heating accounts for the largest amount of energy emissions Heating makes up nearly half of the energy consumption (at 42%) while water heating consumes 30% energy, doubling that of other appliances (about 15%) Other activities such as refrigeration, lighting and cooling constitute the smallest proportions of energy with only 7%, 4% and 2% respectively Meanwhile, water heating has the highest figure for gas emission, about 30% whereas gas emission of other appliances is nearly the same as that of water heating (28%) Heating and refrigeration account for the same emission proportions of approximately 15% The amount of gas emission of lighting and cooling constitutes only 8% and 3% respectively, which is the smallest figure in the second chart Ver 2: Given are the two pie charts comparing the energy consumption of an average household and the consequential greenhouse gas emissions in Australia The data clearly communicates that with the exception of the heating system, there is a correlation between the amount of energy consumed and its gas emissions regarding different categories Water heating is the significant contributory factor to greenhouse gas emissions As can be seen from the first chart, heating makes up for the greatest proportion with 42% of energy use Water heating comes in second with 30%, doubling that in the case of other appliances and roughly quadrupling that of refrigeration The other two lighting and cooling require only 4% and 2% of total energy use respectively Regarding the second chart, water heating holds the first position with 32% of total emissions, followed by other appliances with 28% Heating, despite its massive requirement for energy to operate, releases a modest proportion of greenhouse gas emissions (15%) Meanwhile, 3% and 8% of total emissions were caused by cooling and lighting respectively, preceded by refrigeration with 14% Ver 3: The first pie chart compares six categories of energy use in Australia whilst the second one illustrates the result greenhouse gas release from these sources The data clearly communicates that the majority of energy is used for heating as opposed to cooling with the lowest percentage It is also noticeable that there is little relation between the proportions of energy use and gas emissions in most categories It can be seen from the first chart that heating accounts for the highest percentage with 42% of total energy use, followed by water heating with 30% In stark contrast, a far less amount of energy is used for the purposes of cooling, lighting and refrigeration with only 2%, 4% and 7% respectively The remaining 15% goes to other appliances With regard to greenhouse emissions, despite being the main sector in energy use, heating is responsible for 15%, nearly half of the first position - water heating with 32% Other appliances comes second with 28% of the total amount of gas released, doubling that of refrigeration Meanwhile, cooling and lighting emit the least greenhouse gas with 3% and 8% respectively Ver 4: Given are the two pie charts illustrating the energy consumption for various purposes in an average household in Australia and the greenhouse gas emitted as a result of this usage The data clearly communicates that while heating is the main sector in energy use with the largest percentage, the majority of greenhouse gas is emitted through water heating As can be observed from the first chart, heating accounts for the highest proportion of energy use, with 42%, followed by water heating (30%) and other appliances (15%) Meanwhile, the lowest percentages of energy use belong to refrigeration, lighting and cooling, with 7%, 4% and 2% respectively With regard to the second chart, heating contributes only 15% to the total amount of greenhouse gas emissions, nearly half as much as that of water heating (32%) The use of other appliances, on the other hand, releases 28% greenhouse gas into the atmosphere, doubling the figure for refrigeration (14%) Concerning lighting and cooling, these categories also take up the last positions in terms of greenhouse emissions, with 8% for the former and 4% for the latter Ver 1: The tables compare the sales figures of fair trade coffee and banana in five European countries between 1999 and 2004 Overall, it is clear that the former increased in all five nations in two years: 1999 and 2004 with the largest sales of coffee belonging to the UK On the other hand, the latter sales rose in all countries except for Belgium and Sweden Out of five countries, coffee sales were noticeably higher in Switzerland in 1999 with the figure of million euros, which then doubled to million euros in 2004 However, the UK saw the highest rate of uplift in sales volume from 1.5 million euros to 20 million euros The remaining countries, namely Denmark, Belgium and Sweden witnessed a slight increase in sales, climbing from 1.8 million to million euros, million to 1,7 million euros and 0.8 million to million euros respectively In terms of banana sales, in 1999, the UK had the highest banana sales with the number of 15 million euros Moreover, in 2004, this number tripled to 47 million of euros Switzerland experienced a significant growth in banana sales, rising from million euros to 5.5 million euros and Denmark was matched by a roughly similar trend Belgium and Sweden were noticeable exceptions with the amount of about million euros in 1999, which then halved to million euros in 2004 Ver 2: Given are two tables comparing the two Fair trade products, namely coffee and bananas, among five countries including the UK, Switzerland, Denmark, Belgium and Sweden in terms of sales from 1999 to 2004, a period of five years The data clearly communicates that with the exception to Sweden and Denmark, an ascending trend can be seen in sales of all five countries regarding both coffee and bananas over the period There is a striking gap between the value of banana sales of Switzerland and the other four In terms of fair trade labeled coffee sales, Switzerland accounted for the greatest proportion of value with million of euros, roughly doubling those of the UK and Denmark in 1999 Belgium and Sweden shared comparable figures with million and 0.8 million respectively Over the period, the UK’s sales of coffee considerably climbed to 20 million of euros, overtaking that of Switzerland whose figure was only million Meanwhile, Denmark, Belgium and Sweden witnessed a moderate increase to million, 1,7 million and million respectively As can be seen from the second chart, Switzerland’s bananas were the most profitable among five countries throughout the surveyed period, rising significantly from 15 million of euros in 1999 to 47 million of euros in 2004 The UK and Belgium shared an upward trend with the former growing from to 5,5 million of euros and from 0,6 to million of euros as for the latter On the other hand, a slight decline was evident in the bananas sales of Sweden and Denmark, particularly from 1,8 to million of euros and from to 0,9 million of euros respectively Ver 3: The given tables compare five nations namely the UK, Switzerland, Denmark, Belgium and Sweden in terms of Fairtrade-labeled coffee and bananas sales in 1999 and 2004 As can be clearly observed from the figures, the sales of the two fairtrade products were especially higher in Switzerland and the UK in the given period It was also noticeable that Sweden and Denmark both witnessed a decrease in bananas sales Out of the five countries, the data on both coffee and banana sales in 1999 was highest in Switzerland, at million euros and 15 million euros respectively However, as recorded in 2004, the UK surged to 20 million euros in selling coffee, which far surpassed Switzerland with million euros At the same time, the revenue from bananas of Switzerland exponentially rose to 47 million euros while that of the UK experienced a fivefold increase to 5.5 million euros Sales of fairtrade coffee in Denmark, Belgium and Sweden underwent a period of stability with roughly million euros in both years Meanwhile, except for Belgium with a slight growth from 0.6 million euros in 1999 to million euros in 2004, both Sweden and Denmark were found to fall from around million euros to million euros in 2004 Ver 4: The given tables provide information on the sales of fairtrade-labeled coffee and bananas in 1999 and 2004 in five European countries Overall, Switzerland and the UK had figures regarding the sales of fairtrade-labeled coffee and bananas Meanwhile, the revenues of five countries all shared an upward trend with the exception of Denmark and Sweden As can be clearly observed from the first chart, coffee sales in the UK underwent a dramatic increase from 1,5 million euros in 1999 to 20 million euros in 2004 Switzerland, on the other hand, earned the most money from selling coffee in 1999 (3 million euros) However, the figure only doubled to million euros in 2004 Concerning Denmark, Belgium and Sweden, the figures for these countries all rose but at a rather slow pace For example, the sales in Denmark only slightly grew from 1.8 to million euros over the 5-year course In terms of fairtrade bananas sales, Switzerland took the lead in both years, with 15 million euros in 1999 and 47 million euros in 2004 In the meantime, a moderate growth is evident in the UK and Belgium, with the former climbing from to 5,5 million euros and the latter from 0,6 to million euros in the two years surveyed In contrast, Sweden and Denmark were found to experience a descending trend in bananas sales Specifically, the value of bananas sales of Sweden decreased from 1,8 to million euros and that of Denmark fell from to 0,9 million euros throughout the period The two maps below show the changes in the town of Denham from 1986 to the present day Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant Ver 1: The two maps depict various developments of the town of Denham from 1986 until now As can be clearly observed from the maps, Denham town has experienced significant changes, particularly in the residential area The most noticeable development is the increasing number of house constructions to the north of the river Stoke over time All the farmlands on the left of the Stoke river were removed to make way for houses To the southeast of the post office there was a removal of the garden along with the large house being transformed into retirement home A demolition of two shops adjacent to the post office can be seen, replaced by a planting of a new row of houses The map also witnessed a development in the primary school, which is about 10 miles away from the bridge crossing the river Stoke Meanwhile, in the north of the map, the bridge, along with the post office, remain the same over time Ver 2: Given are the two maps depicting the principal changes to the town of Denham from 1986 till the present day Overall, the town underwent a major conversion from mainly farmland to a crowded town residential area As can be clearly observed from the figures, the area that once was dominated by farmland particularly along the eastside of the river and in the left corner of the map in 1986 has now been covered with houses Another noticeable change in the town is the introduction of many new roads branching from the main one Further construction includes the removal of the garden as featured in 1986 to make room for one of the new roads The large house near the garden, on the other hand, was expanded and turned into a retirement home The town also witnessed the closure of several shops and the extension of a primary school near the main road Meanwhile, the post office and the bridge stayed at the same position over the given period Ver 3: Given are the maps illustrating significant changes in town of Denham between 1986 until now As can be clearly observed from the figures, the town experienced major developments with regard to farmland areas and housing Looking at the maps in more details, all large farmlands on both the North and the South have been removed to make way for housing More roads have been built along the residential houses To the north of the town, the bridge over the river Stoke stands still over the given period At the center of the town, the post office stands still whereas there has been a demolition of shops nearby Moreover, the primary school across from the shop remains in the same position and has been extended In the southeast, the large house witnessed an expansion into a retirement home while the garden in front of the large house has been reduced in size Ver 4: Given are the two maps depicting major changes taking place in Denham since the year 1968 until today As can be clearly seen from the figures, the town has undergone significant redevelopment especially those regarding housing and farmland Looking at the map in more detail, the road network has been markedly extended with more houses added along its both sides It is also noticeable that farmland along the eastside of river Stoke and in the northeast corner of the map was completely removed Similarly, row of shops and gardens adjacent to the road was knocked down to make room for extra houses In contrast, the post office next to the road has remained throughout the given period while the primary school opposite it experienced a considerable extension with the large house being extended and converted into retirement home In addition, the bridge across river Stoke in 1968 is still at its position until present Ver 1: Given is the table comparing the five types of fruits including apples, oranges, both domestically grown and imported, bananas and strawberries in terms of average price over four seasons in a Southern hemisphere country Overall, the data clearly communicates that there is a consistency in the ranks of five types of fruit Strawberries are most expensive among all regardless of seasons In January apples reach its highest price on its at $4.50 per kilogram, doubling that of July with only $2.25 In contrast, the prices of locally grown oranges share a comparable figure throughout the year with averagely $4.30 per kilograms A similar trend can be seen in the imported oranges with values of all four seasons being around $5.25 per kilograms The table also witnesses a consistency in the price of bananas over four seasons Meanwhile, in the summer, strawberries take the lead with $6.00 per kilograms, which is also its lowest price regarding four seasons In the autumn, the price of bananas is nearly tripled by that of strawberries, with only $2.99 per kilograms Ver 2: The given table compares the average price charged to buy a kilo of apples, oranges, bananas and strawberries in January, April, July and October in a southern hemisphere country The data clearly communicates that strawberries are the most expensive fruit as opposed to bananas which are the cheapest ones As can be observed from the table, the locally grown strawberries cost people the most money with the highest of about $8.00 per kilo in April This fruit’s lowest price is $6.00 in January, which, however, is much higher than the rest of the fruit in the same month In contrast, the price for imported bananas experiences a consistent trend of $2.99 over the four months inspected On the other hand, domestic apples are found to be the most expensive in January, $4.50 per kilo, which doubles the figure for July( $2.25) The value of one kilo of imported oranges is around $5.00 in all the months surveyed, generally higher than that of the domestically grown ones with $4.95; $4.30; $3,90 in January, July and October respectively Ver 3: The given table compares five types of fruits, namely apples, oranges, bananas and strawberries in terms of seasonal average price per kilo in a Southern hemisphere country The data clearly communicates that strawberries possesses the highest values in general It is also noticeable that bananas undergoes a consistent trend throughout the four given months As recorded in summer (January), the average price of strawberries is found to be the highest at $6.00 doubling that of bananas Meanwhile, apples and oranges (both imported and locally grown) share comparable figures at roughly $5.00 Strawberries, though has the highest price in January, that number was still its lowest value compared to other months at $8.00 and $6.50 in April and October respectively As for apples, it costs the lowest in July at only $2.25, which is half of the highest in January while its price in April and October sees little difference at roughly 4.00$ Turning to locally grown oranges, the value drops steadily from January at nearly 5.00$ to October at 3.90$ In the meantime, it is remarkable that the price per kilo of bananas experienced no changes in every season at exactly 2.99$ Similar patterns are evident in oranges (imported) whose figures ranging from 5.00$ to 5.50$ in the given months Ver 4: The table illustrates the average price in dollars of four types of fruit, namely apples, domestically grown and exported oranges, bananas and strawberries over four seasons in a Southern hemisphere country Overall, the average price of strawberries in April is the highest while the lowest price could be seen in the category of apples in July in all four fruits The charge for locally grown strawberries is generally higher than the other four types of fruits in three months: January, April and October In terms of apples, people buy the most with the number of $4.50 in January while the lowest price is in July at just $ 2.25, accounting for half of that in January In addition, the average prices of locally grown oranges fall from $4.95 in January to $3.90 in October The price of imported bananas is the same over the given months with only $2.99 per kilograms, which is nearly tripled by that of strawberries in April while imported oranges cost the modest average price from $5.00 to $5.50 The cost of strawberries is the highest in April at $8.00 and the lowest in January at $6.00, which is the highest compared to that of other types of fruit in January Ver 1: The diagrams depict the process of cement production and concrete manufacture from cement for building purposes Overall, the complex production of cement can be divided into stages, commencing with mixing raw materials and ending with cement packaging Meanwhile, the process of making concrete is much simpler involving only steps with materials At the first stage of making cement, limestone and clay are crushed into powder This powder is then thoroughly mixed and then passes through a rotating heater at a high temperature After that, the heated mixture is ground to produce cement Finally, the cement is packed into bags ready to be used The second diagram shows how concrete is produced with the first step of combining 50% gravel (small stones), 25% sand, 15% cement and 10% water This mixture is then put into a concrete mixer which rotates in order to combine mixture, subsequently producing concrete Ver 2: Given are the diagrams depicting the process of cement production and the method of producing concrete using cement As can clearly be observed from the figures, the former process consists of five stages commencing with raw materials being crushed and ending with packaging Meanwhile, producing concrete involves four different materials In the first stage of cement manufacture, limestone and clay are broken up into a form of powder and then mixed together Following that, the mixture is carried along a conveyor belt to a rotating heater where it is directly burned in fire During the fourth stage, the resulting substance is ground, from which cement is produced In the end, cement is packages in bags To produce concrete for building purposes, four materials are needed including water, cement, sand and gravel All of them are then put into a concrete mixer with the proportions of 10% water, 15% cement, 25% sand and 50% gravel respectively Ver 3: Given is the diagram depicting the manufacturing process of cement and concrete for building purposes from cement Overall, the process of making cement can be divided into stages commencing with crushing raw ingredients and ending with cement packaging, while the production of concrete consists of only simple steps of mixing materials As can be seen from the first diagram, the process begins with limestone and clay being ground into powder using a crusher Next the powder is mixed and carried through a rotating heater Once being thoroughly heated, the mixture is passed to a grinder where it is converted into cement At the end of the period, the cement is packaged into bags as the final products The second diagram commences with ingredients, particularly 15% cement, 10% water, 25% sand and 50% gravel, getting poured into a concrete mixer The mixture is then mixed together until it reaches the state of concrete Ver 4: The first diagram illustrates the stages involved in the production of cement and the second diagram depicts the concrete-making process As can be clearly observed from the diagram, the manufacture of cement is divided into five stages beginning with the raw materials being crushed and ending with the ultimate packaged products Meanwhile, the production of concrete requires four different materials To produce cement, limestone and clay are first crushed into powder before being mixed together The resulting powder is then transferred along a conveyor belt to a rotating heater where it is heated with fire Subsequently, the yielded substance is ground to become the final form of cement The process ends with the products being fully packaged in bags Concerning concrete manufacture, four different materials are put together in a concrete mixer They are gravel, sand, cement and water with the proportion of 50%, 25%, 15% and 10% respectively Ver 1: The maps illustrate New York town in 1980 and the developments over the period of 25 years from 1980 to 2005 Overall, it is clear that there have been significant changes in infrastructure and facilities over the given period Furthermore, the town has shown a notable decrease in housing and trees In 1980, the town was surrounded with a lot
