Task2

As contemporary society continues to

evolve, the rapid development of libraries is
becoming outdated, as most information
such as academic journals, e-books and
research papers are now readily available
online. This essay will technology and the
widespread availability of digital resources
have led to the role of traditional libraries
coming under scrutiny. Many argue that
critically evaluate whether libraries are still
necessary in the digital age.

A compelling argument in favor of library

services is their ability to offer much more
than just book lending, such as providing
internet access, educational programs, and
hosting community events. Despite the rise
of digital technology, over 170 million
Americans visited public libraries according
to a report by the international institutions
like IMLS. This shows that, while digital
resources are popular, libraries remain
relevant for many people.
While online access to information has
made research more convenient, libraries
still play a crucial role in providing equitable
access to resources. For instance, not
everyone has reliable internet access or the
necessary gadgets at home. As a result,
libraries serve an essential hub, where
people can access not only information but
also digital tools, much more educational
programs and also professional supports.
These figures demonstrate the growth of
libraries in modern society.
In summary, despite the rise of digital
information, libraries are not obsolete. They
provide essential services and have adapted
to the digital period by integrating online
resources which, as mentioned above.

Pie chart
The two pie charts illustrate the
distribution of expanses in seven
different categories by American
inhabitants in 1966 and 1996.
Overall, there were significant changes
in how Americans allocated their
spending over the thirty-year period. In
1966, the largest portion of expenditure
was on food, while in 1996, cars become
a dominant spending category.
If we look at 1966, food was
considerably more popular than cars,
with figures of 44% and 23%,
respectively. Petrol and furniture were
much smaller categories comprising one
in ten. Expenditure on restaurants was
relatively low at 7% while book and
computers made up 6% and only 1 % of
expenses, accordingly.
Regarding the changes in 1996, cars
dominated spending accounting for 45%
which was almost double that of food
shared dropped to just 14%. Petrol saw a
slight decrease dropping to 8 % while
expenditure on computers rose sharply
to 10 percent. Furniture spending
halved, falling to 8% with regard to least
 amount was spent on books which
remined at only 1 %.

Line graph

A breakdown of trade as a percentage of

GDP in Korea from 2000 to 2025 is allocated
to education, health and roads and railways
sectors.it is evident that the figure of
education and roads and railways followed
opposing trends by now and projected to
continue this trajectory up to 2025.
Meanwhile, GDP allocations to health
depicted

The line graph compares the sales of five

distinct mobile phone brands in the USA
from 2013 to 2023. It is apparent a
consistent up turn over the entire time
period.

In 2000, the government of Korea allotted

exactly 6.0% of GDP to its education
sectors, which was a maximum amount in
that year. This figure experienced a
noticeably decline up to the present day
which showcasing almost 4.9%. this
downward movement is forecasted to
continues in 2025

that all four brands exhibited an upward
trend, except Samsung brand, which lost
popularity over time.

In 2013, Samsung dominated the market

with a substantial 50 million dollars, which
was double that of Motorola’s sales.
Following closely, iPhone and Xiaomi
ranked next with 30 and 20 million dollars,
respectively. Finally, Nokia recorded the
lowest sales at approximately 15 million
dollars.

Regarding the changes, iPhone sales

surpassed Samsung’s sales driven by an
expenditure of 40 million dollars and the
growth persisted until 2023, reaching 60
million dollars and securing market
dominance. In contrast, Samsung exhibited
a downward trend with sales falling from 50
to 30 million dollars. Lastly, Motorola, Nokia
and Xiaomi followed a consistent trajectory,
rising from 25,20, and 15 million dollars to
almost 45,40, and 35 million dollars,
accordingly.

Overall, iPhone has outperformed the other

four figures, emerged as the clear leader at
the market.

Line graph

The line graph compares the key fuel

production patterns in energy units across
the Uzbekistan between the half of 1982 to
2000. It is apparent that natural gas prices
exhibited a consistent upward trend,
whereas the other two experienced
fluctuations characterized by various
changes.

With regard to the petroleum production,

the figure initiated with roughly 60 units in
initial year. Soon, the production
accelerated reaching significant surge to
about 140 units in 1993 as well as it was
followed by a steep drop in 2000.

At the beginning of the year, coal accounted

for a dominant share of 80 energy units,
albeit, by year end it recorded the lowest
performance approximately around 23
units. Conversely, the generation of natural
gas product commenced at that point (80)
in 1982 and it sustained a robust growth
rate and maintained its dominance at
140units by the end of the year.

Overall, petroleum was the main fossil fuel

manufactured in the Uzbekistan even
though coal has secured its dominant
position.

Pie chart (Waste disposal)

A breakdown of garbage removal within a

certain country during the years 1960 and
2011 is demonstrated in the two pie charts
provided. Notably, the waste levels for
green waste and glass remained constant
over both years. However, the figure for
other types of waste shows either an
upward or downward trend.

When we examine the data for 1960, it

becomes evident that paper accounted for
the significantly largest share of waste at
25%, followed by textiles at 17%. Food and
other waste each contributed 12%, while
plastic and metal waste were both
responsible for 8%. Green waste made up
9% of the total waste, whereas waste
related to metal and plastic was negligible,
at just about 5%.

In analyzing the shift in 2011, the share of

paper waste dropped considerably to 15%,
making food waste the second largest
category at 21% (12% in 1960). Conversely,
there was a substantial increase in the
share of plastic waste from 8% to 18%.
Green waste and glass remained unchanged
at 9% and 5%, respectively, while the
proportion of wood waste doubled from 4%
to 8%. Additionally, textiles experienced a
slight decline to 11%. The ‘other’ category
illustrated a modest rise, increasing from
1% to 4%.

Overall, paper waste experienced a

significant decline which was a
predominant aspect of the chart during the
initial period. (7 band)
PIE CHART 3

A breakdown of school expenses The

column graph compares the changes in the
proportion of population within 4 different
countries such as Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan,
Turkmenistan and Tajikistan from 1950 to
2000 as well as also indicates the
projections for 2050. It is evident that
Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan had the highest
shares of world population in 1950 and
2000, whereas other two countries
remained significantly lower.

In 1950, Uzbekistan’s share of global

population was around 0.4, which rose to
 about 0.5 by 2000 and the opposite
occurred in Kazakhstan, where the figures
changed in reverse, accordingly. It is
predicted that the population increased
moderately to 0.6 by 2050.

Bar chart

The column graph compares the changes of

foreign aid within 6 different countries from
2008 to 2010. This data presented in billions of
dollars. It is evident that all aid contributions
depicted an upward trajectory, albeit at varying
rates over the period.
In 2008, France led with approximately 6 billion
dollars of aid, which remained stable in 2009
before rising slightly at almost 10 billion dollars
in 2010. Regarding to financial support of Italy,
it reflected a stable growth from 6 to 8 billion
dollars by 2010. Spain, while starting from a
smaller number of aids at just over 2 billion
dollars in 2008, illustrated steady growth,
reaching around 7 billion dollars in 2010.

In analyzing the contribution of aids in other

tree countries, such as Norway, Switzerland
and Belgium, maintained relatively stable over
the years. Regarding with Norway,
The given table compares the amount of time
spent across 8 different internet platforms in a
certain country over two time periods. It is
evident that social media, watching videos and
online shopping accounted for the highest
share of time, although all platforms recorded
a downward trend in usage over the given time
period.

In detail, the use of social media had the

highest share in both years (2021-2023),
accounting for a significant increase from 22%
to 30% of total share. However, this appears to
be at the expense of other forms, namely video
streaming and online shopping, which both
increased by 2% point from the initial year’s
figure.

Meanwhile, another noticeable trend was the

relatively small decline in searching
information and accessing news with each
produced a slight reduction of one percent
point. The remaining 3 categories such as
streaming music, instant messaging and online
gaming showcased an imperceptible decrease
from 10%, 8% and 6% to 9%, 7% and 5% over
the given period of time, respectively.

Overall, over the course of 2 years, the amount

of time spent on social media remained the
most dominant.
The table illustrates the time spent on eight
different internet platforms in a specific
country across two time periods. Overall, social
media, video streaming, and online shopping
consistently dominated usage, though a
general downward trend was observed across
most platforms.
Social media, in particular, exhibited the most
significant increase, rising sharply from 22% in
2021 to 30% in 2023. This marked growth
appears to have occurred at the expense of
video streaming and online shopping, both of
which experienced a slight decline of 2%.
Another notable trend was the marginal
decrease in the use of platforms for searching
information and accessing news, with both
seeing a minimal reduction of one percentage
point. Additionally, categories such as
streaming music, instant messaging, and
online gaming recorded only negligible
changes, with their shares dropping by 1%
each, from 10%, 8%, and 6% to 9%, 7%, and
5%, respectively.
In summary, while most platforms saw modest
declines in usage over the two-year period,
social media strengthened its leading position,
showing a significant upward trajectory.
Map

The two maps highlight students’ room for two

people and a single person at Australian
university. They illustrate the differences in
size, price and the facilities offered in each
room, depicts the contrast in convenience and
functionality.

In detail, the first diagram showcased a room

for two people, costing $350 per weak while
the room length and width measures 6metres
and 4metres, respectively. It includes two
separated bed rooms and study desks, a
television and a kitchen area equipped with
microwave and a stove. Additionally, there is a
single bathroom for two of them to share.
Despite sharing the rooms, each student has a
well-designed study space which ensuring
comfort zone to study independently.

In contrast, the second picture illustrates a

single person room, priced at 200$ per weak.
Whereas the room length remains a same at
6metres and it is 2.5metres narrower from first
picture in width. Since this room is designed for
one person, the furnishing is also appropriately
suited for one person such as it includes a bed,
a single study space and television. it is
interesting to say that main parts (bathroom
and kitchen availabilities) are in same level as
private two-person room. Albeit, the room is
smaller and less equipped which offers some
advantages of privacy as the student does not
need to share the extra space or area with
anyone else.

Overall, the two-person room is ideal for those

comfortabilities with shared space, while single
room is smaller but private.

The two maps highlight students' rooms for

two people and a single person at an
Australian university. They illustrate the
differences in size, price, and the facilities
offered in each room, depicting the contrast in
convenience and functionality. In detail, the
first diagram showcases a room for two
people, costing $350 per week, while the
room’s length and width measure 6 metres
and 4 metres, respectively. It includes two
separate bedrooms and study desks, a
television, and a kitchen area equipped with a
microwave and stove. Additionally, there is a
single bathroom for both students to share.
Despite sharing the room, each student has a
well-designed study space, ensuring comfort
and privacy for independent study. In
contrast, the second diagram illustrates a
single-person room, priced at $200 per week.
While the room length remains the same at
6metres, it is 2.5metres narrower than the
first room. Since this room is designed for one
person, the furnishings are appropriately
suited, including a bed, a single study desk,
and a television. It is interesting to note that
the main facilities, such as the bathroom and
kitchen, are at the same level as the two-
person room. However, the room is smaller
and less equipped, offering the advantage of
privacy as the student does not need to share
any space. Overall, the two-person room is
ideal for those comfortable with shared space,
while the single room is smaller but offers
more privacy.
The two maps highlight the main development
that have taken place in the Kimsville over the
period and today. Overall, what stands out
from both maps is that Kimsvelle has become
far more developed and modern, with more
accommodation, amenities and entertainment
facilities and fewer trees and green spaces.

In detail, if we look at the top and bottom left

hand corners of the city, various changes have
been that the trees in the left corners have
been cut down, while new apartment and
football stadium have been constructed in its
place for people’s residence and health
activity, respectively. In 2010, a new train
station was built in the left center of the city,
which had been empty.

Regarding the top right of the city center,

factory demolished the area on the right side
of the city center, and an old cinema was
relocated there. In place of the relocated
cinema, a pub has now been constructed.

In summary, despite these numerous changes,

the shopping center and the trees on the city’s
right side have remained untouched.

Task 2 (12)
The ongoing debate over whether educational
budgets should prioritize the purchase of
modern computers or increase professional
teachers’ salary. Both options have distinct
advantages and can be beneficial depending on
circumstances, such as investing technological
literacy, while higher salaries attract and retain
qualified educators, which can improve overall
teaching quality. This essay will discuss both
perspectives and offer my own view on the
matter.

One compelling advantage in favor of

enhancing digital literacy is its capacity to
significantly improve students' preparedness for
the modern job market. Investing in better
computers equips students with essential digital
skills, preparing them for the modern job
market and the increasing reliance on
technology. For example, Finland integrates
advanced technology into classrooms, ensuring
students are proficient in using digital tools
from early age. As a result, the digital
proficiency of Finland student is significantly
increased in global digital development
statistics. Additionally, computers provide
students with access to a vast array of online
educational resources, enabling self-paced
learning and research beyond the traditional
classroom. For instance, schools in South Korea
provide each student with a tablet or laptop,
enhancing access to digital textbooks and
interactive learning platforms. This illustrate the
volume of modern digital technologies play the
important role to broad the general horizon
about technology in students mind.

In contrast, allocating educational budget

toward increasing teacher’s salary also boast
several notable advantages that can not be
overlooked. Generally, teachers play a crucial
role in shaping student’s learning process, and
investing in teachers training and salary ensure
higher quality of education. In investing process
Singapore is popular option to mention like
government of Singapore begin to prioritizes
investment in teacher development, leading to
consistently high student performance on global
educational rankings. Moreover, there is
another option which need to mention as basic
one that depends with personalizing. While
technology can enhance learning teachers
provide personalized instruction, guidance and
emotional support that computers can not offer
and this may create some problems which
works on reducing behavioral interest.
Nowadays, some state of United Kingdom
prefers to focus heavily on well-trained teachers
rather than technology to ensuring students
receive individual attention and mentorship.

In conclusions, investing both sides such as

computers or teachers with high salary present
considerable benefits that make them worthy
choices. However, based on positive outcomes
seen in investing of teachers by educational
budget, I find role of teachers to be the more
practical and efficient which provide the
greatest value to ensuring students to being
knowledgeable.

TASK 2 (agree/disagree)

In today’s rapidly evolving world, many ideas

are the subject of ongoing debate. One such
notion is that everyone especially young
generation should care about future finance as
how to maintain their budget and this
perspective has garnered widespread attention
for its potential benefits and drawbacks. I
strongly agree with this idea, as I believe the
advantages such as growth as a fully investing
person and as a financial security offers far
outweigh any associated disadvantages. This
essay will explore the key benefits of the
viewpoint, while also addressing the
counterarguments.

One of the significant advantages of saving

money for future is ability to financial security
in emergencies situations. This option help to
improve special ability to being avoid of
destitution in emergencies where it addressed
critical needs and facilities positive outcomes.
For instance, a 2023 report by Federal Reserve
showcased that 37% of American adults would
struggle to cover a 400$ emergency expanse
without borrowing. Interestingly, young people
who start saving early are more likely avoid this
situation and have funds to cover unexpected
costs.

Furthermore, setting aside money offers

secondary advantages, which is its opportunities
for investment and grows. Young people who
save and invest even a small amount regularly
can take advantages of compound interest and
long-term market growth, significantly
increasing their wealth budget over time. For
instance, in India the average annual return for
equity mutual funds has been around 13% over
the past decades. By investing even a small
amount each month adults can harness extra
profit to their own finance.
However, some argue that young people should
focus on enjoying life and gaining experience
rather than saving extensively. They content
that experiences such as traveling, studying and
social events help in personal growth and
building lifelong memories. Saving too strictly
can limit their options especially when they are
young and free from financial responsibilities.

In conclusion, although there are some

drawbacks to maintaining money for future by
young people, I firmly believe that the
advantages, particularly financial growth and
achieving goals are far more compelling.

In today’s rapidly evolving world, many ideas

are the subject of ongoing debate. One such
notion is that everyone, especially the younger
generation, should care about their future
finances and how to maintain their budget. This
perspective has garnered widespread attention
for its potential benefits and drawbacks. I
strongly agree with this idea, as I believe the
advantages, such as becoming a fully informed
investor and gaining financial security, far
outweigh any associated disadvantages. This
essay will explore the key benefits of this
viewpoint while also addressing
counterarguments.
One of the significant advantages of saving
money for the future is the ability to achieve
financial security in emergency situations. This
approach helps to develop the crucial skill of
avoiding destitution during emergencies,
ensuring that critical needs are met and
facilitating positive outcomes. For instance, a
2023 report by the Federal Reserve showed that
37% of American adults would struggle to
cover a $400 emergency expense without
borrowing. Interestingly, young people who
start saving early are more likely to avoid this
situation and have funds available to cover
unexpected costs.
Furthermore, setting aside money offers
secondary advantages, such as opportunities for
investment and growth. Young people who save
and invest even small amounts regularly can
take advantage of compound interest and long-
term market growth, significantly increasing
their financial resources over time. For instance,
in India, the average annual return for equity
mutual funds has been around 13% over the
past decade. By investing even a small amount
each month, individuals can generate additional
profit and improve their financial position.
However, some argue that young people should
focus on enjoying life and gaining experiences
rather than saving extensively. They contend
that activities such as traveling, studying, and
participating in social events contribute to
personal growth and help build lifelong
memories. Saving too strictly can limit their
opportunities, especially when they are young
and free from financial responsibilities.
In conclusion, although there are some
drawbacks to young people saving for the
future, I firmly believe that the advantages,
particularly financial growth and achieving
personal goals, are far more compelling.

A breakdown of prominence of 10
subjects within a New York
University during the years 1960
and 2011 is demonstrated in the
two pie charts provided. Notably,
the fame of mathematics
remained constant over both
years. However, the figure for
other concern shows either an
upward or downward trend.
When we examine the data for
1960, it becomes evident that
Economics accounted for the
significantly largest place at 25%,
followed by sciences at 20%.
Engineering and English subjects
each contributed 15%, while the
popularity level of business
studies and accounting were both
responsible for 5%. Mathematics
made up 10% of the total
prominence, whereas other 3
subjects’ figure related to cyber
security, mandarin and art and
design was negligible, at just
about 3%.
In analyzing the shift in 2011, the
rate of major subject (economy)
surged considerably to 15%,
whereas other major ones such as
science and engineering
showcased extremely drop at 16%
and 5%, respectively. Conversely,
there was a substantial increase
in the popularity of business
studies and accounting from 5%
to roughly 10%. Next major
subjects (math) remained
unchanged at 10, while the
popular sector of minor 3 subjects
experienced minor percentage
around 7%, accordingly.
Overall, according to student’s
choice, economics and science
have maintained their popularity
at the university(band 6)
A comparison of the proportions
of 10 subjects at New York
University between the years 1960
and 2011 is demonstrated in the
two pie charts provided. Notably,
the proportion of students
studying mathematics remained
constant over both years.
However, the figures for other
subjects show varying trends of
increase or decrease.
In the 1960 data, it becomes
evident that Economics accounted

around 7% each.
In conclusion, despite fluctuations
in other areas, economics and
science have consistently
maintained their popularity at the
university.

In recent time, dining out ha become common,

as it saves time and offer variety. However, a
significant number of individuals believe that
preparing home-cooked meals should be a
priority to a maintain a healthy lifestyle. I
strongly agree with this statement that home
prepared foods can provide a better control over
ingredients portions and general dietary quality.

On the one hand, cooking at home allows

people to choose healthier ingredients, whereas
restaurants food often, contains high amount of
food additives such as sugar and salt, which can
contribute to weight gain and other health
issues. For example, Michelle Obama is an
attorney, author and advocates who served as
the First Lady of United States. She has been a
strong advocate for healthier home -cooked
meals to address childhood obesity. By
preparing meals at home, she

The provided diagrams depict the causes and effect of

land degradation by certain region of world in 1990s.

Overall, these data sources clearly communicate that the

volume of over-grazing expanded according to the pie
chart, whilst the bar chart delineates that Europe takes
higher grade suffering from over-grazing.
The pie chat experiences that the over-grazing and
deforestation were the main causes of land degradation

respectively. Meanwhile,

Task 2

In recent years, open space office designs have become

increasingly popular, replacing traditional workplaces with
separate rooms. While it offers numerous benefits and
essential to consider its downside as well. This essay will
argue that although open space enhances collaboration and
cost efficiency, the disadvantages, such as decreased
productivity and privacy concerns, outweigh these benefits.

One of the primary advantages of open space offices is the

encouragement of communication and teamworking among
workers. In such college and layouts can share and exchange
ideas and solve work problems together easily and fostering
creativity combination
