The maps show the usual layout of Japanese and American offices. Overall, the main difference between these offices is the adjustment of desks. While the Japanese office structure has two joined tables for seven employees each, the American one has separate desks for each individual.

The overall structure of a usual Japanese office is quite simple, with windows located at the top, just behind the department manager’s seat. There are two section managers in front of the department manager’s desk. There are two tables for each manager, with six employee seats being located to their right and left.

As for the American office structure, it is a bit more sophisticated, with separate rooms for different purposes, and separate work tables. There are two windows, which can be found to the right and to the left of the building. There are three rooms located adjacent to each other, with the department manager room being situated in the bottom right hand corner of the map, above which are two section manager rooms. In the middle of the building located two rows of working desks, to the left of them are four rooms: printer copier, storage, and two conference rooms.

Scientific research should be carried out and controlled by government rather than private companies.

To what extent do you agree or disagree?

There is a view that governments should be responsible for conducting scientific studies rather than private companies and organizations. While government-controlled scientific projects can help improve critical public services, I believe that allowing private entities the freedom to conduct research can foster innovation, potentially driving the economy.

On the one hand, there can be several advantages to making the government responsible for scientific work, one of which is the potential to enhance essential public services. Unlike private companies, which may be motivated by sales and profits when conducting research, the government can prioritize areas that require innovation and development for the public good. This is because some sectors, such as healthcare, military and education may not interest some private organizations due to high costs and lower profitability. For example, most nations spend a significant portion of their resources on military and military research, yet primary return is national security. Given the limited financial potential of making a fortune, some companies may avoid conducting studies in such fields, which necessitates government intervention.

That being said, in my view, enabling private companies to conduct their own scientific research offers greater advantages. One key benefit is the potential for innovation. Allowing companies and organizations the freedom to explore different areas of research can foster the development of new ideas, which could drive economic growth. Instead of limiting the country’s scientific potential by restricting studies to government-run initiatives, a more liberal approach—allowing private companies to explore various fields—can be more beneficial. If companies could conduct research on different fields, they might potentially develop new technologies and methods that can be incorporated into various fields, ranging from IT to agriculture. This freedom in doing scientific studies is more likely to develop the country’s economy due to advancements in such fields. However, if the government controls which fields are explored, it could stifle innovation, potentially limiting the benefits the country might gain.

In conclusion, although governmental control over scientific research can enhance essential public services, I would argue that allowing freedom for private companies to conduct scientific research is more beneficial. After all, it can stimulate innovation and contribute to economic growth.

In many countries, the number of animals and plants is declining.

Why do you think it is happening?
How to solve this issue?


Around the globe, the populations of animal and plant species are decreasing, an issue that has become prevalent over the past few years. While this decline can be attributed to human activity, such as deforestation and illegal hunting, we can counter the issue with the government intervention.

There are two main reasons for the damage to flora and fauna, both of which stem from human activity. In recent times, the volume of construction work has increased, building of houses in particular, requiring cutting down of trees for several purposes. It is true that wood is not only valued for building houses, but the land where trees grow is also essential for housing companies. When forests are cleared in this way, there are slim chances of survival for most plant species. As a result, entire forests with rich biodiversity can be disturbed, even leading to a die-out of several plants.

Similarly, animals can suffer from illegal hunting. Poaching has become an indispensable source of income in most countries, especially in developing nations. Poachers hunt some animals for their valuable body parts, like horns, teeth, skins and bones, all of which are held expensive commodities in the black market for their use in alternative medicine and making jewellery. This, in turn, can be a threat for many animals, leading to the extinction of certain species.

However, through the enforcement of stricter laws against land clearance, governments can combat this problem. For one, by limiting construction work, or imposing quotas on the number of trees that can be cut in a month by logging companies, some plant species could be preserved. This can be done in two ways: punishments and rewards. For example, applying stricter punishments for those who cut the greatest number of trees, or offering rewards to those who cut down on their tree removal activity can improve the situation.

Moreover, applying stricter punishments on poachers can significantly reduce the number of animals being killed. It is true that most countries already have strong regulations which do not allow for illegal killing of animals. Nevertheless, certain individuals who may not obey these rules can be found, which means that severe punishments, including heftier fines and longer prison sentences, are usually required to better discourage such criminal conduct.

In conclusion, the main contributors to the issue of species declining are tree removals and poaching. That said, I would argue that stricter regulations and punishments can alleviate the issue.

The pie charts compare the proportions of water usage by five different sectors in an Australian city called Sydney in the years 1997 and 2007. Overall, the food industry accounted for by far the largest proportion of water use in both years, despite showing a decline. While the percentage of water used by households and the service industry experienced upward trends, with the latter seeing the most significant change during this period, the manufacturing and building industries saw declines in their figures.

In more detail, food industry made up the largest share of the total water use. In 1997, almost a half of the water was used in this sector, a figure which then declined to 41% after 10 years. Meanwhile, manufacturing sector also witnessed a decrease in its figure, from an initial 15% to 11% over the decade. As for the building industry, there was a minimal fall from a mere 5% to 2%, making it the smallest sector to use water during this decade.

By contrast, water use in households, and service industry saw increases of various degrees. The figure for the former sector stood at 19% initially, which was followed by a minimal growth of 2-percentage points. Service industry, in comparison, experienced a more significant growth, from 13% to 25% between 1997 and 2007.

The bar chart gives information about the number of vehicles registered in Europe in the years 1996 and 2006.

Overall, by far the largest number of cars registered in both years, followed by other unspecified vehicles. While the figures for both increased, the reverse was true for the remaining types, except for bus, coach and taxi, which did not see any change.

In more detail, the number of cars registered in 1996 stood at 19mln, a figure that then rose to 24mln after a decade, showing a 26,32% change. Meanwhile, the figure for the other unspecified vehicles also increased from 1,5mln in 1996 to 2mln in 2006, reflecting a substantial 58,33% rise.

By contrast, the remaining categories exhibited much smaller figures. Starting at 1mln initially, the figure for motorcycles declined noticeably over the period, recording a 40% fall. There was a 20% drop in the number of lorries registered during this decade. In 1996, 0.5mln lorries were registered, which was followed by a decline to 0.4mln in the final year. The number of buses, coaches, and taxis which were registered did not see any change, remaining stable at 0.1mln in both years.

The diagram illustrates the process by which different kinds of waste products are sorted for recycling. Overall, there are four main stages in this process, with each one sorting different products. Also, the process is a mechanical one, calling for special machinery in every step.

The process starts with transporting the collected waste materials into a shredder. Waste materials include: glass, food, steel, cans, iron, on-ferrous metals, wood, and aluminium. Once they have been shredded, their first destination is a primary air classifier, where shredded paper and plastic is directed to a compactor. Next, the remaining products are sent to a magnetic separator, which extracts steel cans and iron with magnet, and puts them into a collector.

In the next stage, glass, food, and non-ferrous materials are separated from the waste. For this purpose, a trammel screen is utilized, which sorts these products and sends them to a collector. In the final step, a secondary air classifier is used to separate aluminium, wood, rubber, and plastic and sends them to another collector.

Anybody can use a mobile phone to answer the work and personal calls at any time or 7 days a week.

Does this development have more positive or negative effects on both individuals and society?

In today’s world, mobile phones have become ubiquitous, allowing individuals to be available for both work and personal matters at all times. While this can result in a decline in face-to-face communication, as well as heightened stress levels, I believe that the positives, such as flexibility and increased connectivity in emergencies, are more significant.

On the one hand, the 24/7 mobile phone availability can lead to a decrease in in-person communication. This is because families and friends can be conveniently reachable by phones due to voice calls and video calls, which are very efficient. Yet, if people choose their mobile devices excessively instead of physically going to a person’s house and checking up on them, both parties may feel lonely, as meaningful face-to-face conversations cannot be replaced and are crucial for human beings to emotionally thrive.

On a broader scale, another disadvantage could be increased stress. The fear and anxiety over being available to both colleagues and clients 24/7 can be overwhelming, as individuals may feel compelled to do so. After all, in today’s highly competitive job market, it can only be natural to act in this way. This constant urge to be available can disrupt important moments in our life, including family gatherings and meetings with friends, which could potentially lead to stress-related issues, such as mental fatigue or even insomnia. As a result, the general quality of life can be compromised.

However, in my view, the advantages of constant availability overshadow any potential drawbacks. One key benefit is that mobile phones can help individuals work remotely while maintaining their personal relationships. With today’s technology, it has become increasingly common for people to work online, which allows people to positively contribute to both their families and employers. This is especially useful for those who need maternity or paternity leave, as they can continue their work at their convenience at home while handling family responsibilities, thus highlighting the vital role mobile phones play in maintaining employment, familial connections, and friendships.

On a societal level, there are some critical public services, which can hugely benefit from round-the-clock availability. For example, doctors and police officers are usually those who work day and night, assisting the general public in cases of emergencies. Without mobile phones, these important public services may not be as successful as they are now. For example, there have been many instances when doctors helped people during emergency situations via a phone call, sometimes, even in life and death situations. Similarly, police officers brought criminals into justice often with the help of a timely phone call made by civilians. Because of these benefits, not only can people feel safer but also more cared for by the government, resulting in higher public approval rates.

In conclusion, being ready to answer phone calls from work and families can diminish face-to-face interactions, and cause stress. Nevertheless, I contend that 24/7 mobile phone availability can actually work for our benefit, assisting individuals and society as a whole by offering a work-life balance because of flexibility and public safety, making efficient public services.

The maps illustrate Lynnfield town in 1936 and how it had changed by 2007. Overall, the town had undergone significant changes, with the construction of a residential and recreational areas. However, these changes came at the cost of existing greenery and a river that were present in 1936.

In 1936, the town was predominantly rural. The area was divided into four parts by roads crossed in between them. These roads surrounded the central area of the town in a rectangular shape. Town center accommodated a post office, sweet shop and butcher’s in the north, while a flower shop, a bank and library were located to its south, with large space between them. There was a farmland at the bottom right-hand corner of the map, next to which were government offices. A curved cycle path running from west to south could be found opposite the offices, while three trees occupied the north-west of the town, near the post office. At the top right hand corner of the map was a river, with some vegetation in its riverbed.

By 2007, the town had undergone significant transformation, becoming more residential. The most noticeable change was the construction of houses in the river area, which resulted in its disappearance. While the main roads remained unchanged, a cycle path was turned into a road. Though the post office was also untouched, the northern part of the town center saw a noticeable change, with the replacement of a sweet shop, and butchers by a supermarket. A new shopping center was built in the large space, while the southern part of the center did not see any changes except for the replacement of the flower shop with a travel agency. Government offices and farmland made way for a museum and golf courts respectively. Another change included the disappearance of some trees in the north-west part of the map.

The pie charts compare how the ways people travelled to a particular university changed between 2004 and 2009.

Overall, despite being dominant initially, the proportion of people who travelled to the university by car experienced downward trends. By contrast, people using all the other methods of travel increased, with bus use seeing the most significant growth and becoming the most popular way of commuting.

In more detail, approximately half of the people who went to this particular university used cars in 2004. However, by 2009, this figure had fallen significantly to 28%.
By contrast, the remaining means of travel witnessed upward trends. In 2004, a third of the people travelled by bus, a figure that then saw a dramatic increase to 46% in 2009. Similarly, there was a noticeable increase from an initial 9% to 16% in the proportion of bicycle users.

As for those who walked to university or used trains, the figures were relatively smaller. People who went to the university on foot stood at 4% in 2004, which was followed by a slight increase to 6% in the final year. Only 3% of commuters used train to get to the university initially, rising by a mere 1% by 2009.

Some people think children have the freedom to make mistakes, while other people believe that adults should prevent children from making mistakes.
Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

People have differing views on whether parents should allow their children to make mistakes or intervene to prevent negative consequences. While some argue in favour of giving the freedom to learn from their errors can help develop positive traits like responsibility, others hold the view that it is crucial to prevent mistakes with serious consequences. In my opinion, parents should guide their children while also allowing them to learn from their errors and take risks.

On the one hand, some mistakes can be helpful for children’s development. One significant benefit is that children can develop a sense of accountability for their actions. This is because when children make errors that result in negative outcomes, they are likely to draw meaningful conclusions. For example, receiving a poor grade for incomplete assignments can teach the value of work ethic. These lessons help them understand that completing tasks responsibly often leads to recognition and praise in school.
On the other hand, there are some mistakes that should not be allowed. Some actions have consequences that are too severe, especially when children endanger their lives. For example, allowing children to play near a busy road exposes them to potential dangers, such as running into traffic or becoming distracted during a ball game. Such mistakes can result in severe injuries or even the loss of life. In these situations, it is crucial for parents to provide constant supervision and enforce strict boundaries.

In my view, children should be free to make mistakes as long as the consequences are not too serious. Mistakes can offer valuable lessons, helping children navigate life’s challenges. They equip them with useful traits, including but not limited to a greater sense of responsibility, mental toughness, and a strong work ethic. Sometimes, a poor grade or a failure in a sports competition can be life-changing, teaching children responsibility, resilience, and a strong work ethic when they understand the value of their mistakes. That said, parents should prevent risky mistakes, especially those that could result in injury or public humiliation, as these can take a significant toll on a child’s physical health and self-confidence.

In conclusion, although mistakes can teach valuable lessons, they can lead to serious consequences. Thus, I believe parents should strike a balance by allowing mistakes that offer valuable conclusions while preventing those with serious physical or mental repercussions.

Two maps show the village of Pancha in 2005 and how it had changed by 2015. Overall, the village had undergone significant development, with telecommunicational, educational and commercial facilities being built. Of particular note was the construction of a new road, which allowed for vehicular access.

In 2005, the area had limited facilities for its residents. There was a road running from the north to the south. To the right of this road, at the top right hand corner of the map was a primary school, with buildings. Below the school was a cluster of houses, to the south of which were pagodas. As for the left side of the road, it was mainly occuppied by residential buildings, and a market could be found to the south of these houses.

In 2015, the village became more modern with the introduction of a number of facilities. The old road was renewed, making it easier for cars to run on it. Primary school saw a redevelopment with the addition of a secondary school building and the reconstruction of the primary ones. A couple of traffic signs were installed to the right of the road. Another change to this part of the village was the demolishment of the existing houses, leaving only one house on this side. While the size of one pagoda shrunk, their numbers increased, making them three. On the left hand side of the road, telecommunnication cabels were installed, which ran along parallel to it. While the houses on these side was not demolished, a majority of them were equipped with sattelite TV antennas. Other changes included the introduction of cabel towers and the expansion and the rearrangement of the market, promoting the efficient use of space.
