Many people feel that development is likely to erode the cultural values of a place no matter where the development takes place.
Essay 020
• How far do you agree or disagree with this?
• Prove your points with examples taken from your life or surroundings.
Since change is natural and development is but change, the possibility for change in cultural values too is possible in today’s fast paced world. It is true to a great extent that, irrespective of place and time, development changes values.
To begin with, change is quiet human and it is humans’ inherent urge to change from what is today that has made them stand where they are standing now. Obviously, a change is not possible without touching the things around whether it is physical or cultural or even spiritual.
Let me cite an example to prove my point. In the past people attached a lot of sentiments with personal and family visits. People used to complain of if the frequency is far beyond their expectations. But now, thanks to development is communication and fast paced life, people are happy the way they are. No matter they meet face to face or visit each other’s family. It did have some cultural value, we cannot help it though.
However, there a few cultural values that resist change even if the force of development is much stronger. For example, many people are not ready to compromise on their personal values like truthfulness, helping mentality, family characteristics. But their number is negligibly small. Barring such a small lot, everything is influenced by development. Eroding social values is a bit disturbing though.
In short, it is right to conclude that development is bound to change established values greatly today. However, we cannot ignore the fact that human life per se has become much better. At least people have developed such a culture of change and development.

One of my close associates had sent this following topic and answer to me for evaluation: It is evaluated, commented upon, and the corrected version is loaded for readers. Jaypee has no claim over the essay, but the valuation process is his'.
Writing Task 2
You should spend about 40 minutes on this task.
Write about the following topic:
In a recent survey conducted in this country, it was found that up to 20% of twelve year-olds in some schools were showing early signs of nicotine addiction.
In the eighteen to twenty year age bracket the percentage was as high as 70%. A large contributing factor to this high level of addiction is attributed to the uncensored TV advertising of cigarettes. For this reason all cigarette advertising should be banned.
Discuss.
Write at least 250 words.
Task 2 Model Answer
The issue of cigarette advertising is an important one, especially in this country where so many young adolescents smoke. One of the main causes of this problem is peer pressure. Another cause is advertising, especially TV advertising.
(This could have been the second paragraph: in the original these two were together)
Smoking, as we all know, leads to a number of health problems such as cancer and heart disease. Many people think that cigarette advertising should not be banned since this would limit our free choice in this matter. However, there is growing evidence that this serious problem is getting out of control. Let us examine the facts more closely.
The most important reason why cigarette advertising should be banned is that cigarette is bad for our health. Smoking causes lung cancer and heart disease. Many people also suffer from slow and painful death from a disease called emphysema.
Another important reason why cigarette advertising should be banned is that it costs the tax payer money. People who become sick from smoking have to be cared for in expensive hospitals. In addition, their deaths often result in financial problem for their families.
Finally cigarette smoking may lead to another problem namely drug addiction. Although there is not conclusive evidence that this often happens, many experts in this area feel that there is a connection between the two.
Perhaps a solution to this problem is the education of young children concerning the dangers of taking up this habit. Also a heavy tax could be placed on cigarettes so that youngsters would not be able to afford them. In any case, it seems beyond any reasonable doubt that cigarette advertising should be banned.
Comments on evaluation:
1. Very good language which is worth fetching above 7 band.
2. Unusually long introduction running nearly upto 100 words
3. The issue is this: A large contributing factor to this high level of addiction is attributed to the uncensored TV advertising: so there needs banning. Here is a slight failure with regard to task fulfillment in the sense that the writer seems to have ignored the fact that it is all about uncensored TV commercials on cigars.
4. Fair word length of 265 words
5. Excellent cohesion and coherence
6. Brilliant vocabulary
7. The question is cigar ads should be banned on the basis of the findings that these ads add to woes of addition found among youngsters. That part is taken as something like: what are the arguments that make banning necessary. These two are different.
8. However, the language is strong enough to leave a lasting impression till the end of the essay making the examiner generously offer a score above 7, if not still higher.

Surveys reveal that up-to 20% of 12 year olds in some schools are showing signs of nicotine addiction. In the 18-20 year bracket, the percentage is as high as 70. A large contributing factor to this high level of addiction is the uncensored TV advertising of cigarettes. For this reason, all cigarette advertising should be banned. Discuss.
It is a known fact that addition to nicotine is highly rampant among younger age groups. This could be attributed to many factors. Television advertising on cigarettes, in my opinion, is just one of those factors. Therefore, banning such advertising would not have the desired effect. 45
To begin with, advertising as such is a great force to reckon with when it comes to influencing people, especially youngsters. This does not mean that youngsters pick up bad habits like smoking directly from TV advertising. Rather, there are innumerable other agents that are much more powerful than TV advertising: the pressures growing up, temptations from smoking parents and extreme availability of tobacco products, to mention a few. 65
For example, smoking is eulogized in the movies, and the heroes and villains of new age films are powerful enough to make our young children feel that it is something to be “smoking”. The macho impact of smoking gets reinforced more by such instruments of entertainment than by mere advertising. TV adverting is a flashy thing that comes and goes unlike films. So banning it is not going to make any difference. 70
However, it is premature to ignore the fact that uncensored adverting promoting cigarettes does influence children, though the extent of such impacts is much lesser than what other forces are able to make. For example, constant company of smokers, the urge to test and taste something adventurous, the false notion that smoking alleviates tension and the like are real compulsions. 60
In short, the discussion makes me conclude that nicotine addition seen among younger age groups is contributed more by several other external influences than by advertising on cigarettes per se. However, banning TV commercials on cigarettes is not bad either for the general good of humanity. 45

GRAPH ON THE POPULARITY OF MODES OF TRAVEL TO AND FROM WORK
The graph breaks up data on different modes of transport people of a European city used to travel to and from work in three periods, 1960, 1980 and 2000.
To begin with, in 1960, 20% people traveled by bus. This figure went above 25% in 1980. But, when it was 2000, the percentage came close to 15%. When it comes to car users, in 1960, hardly seven percent people used it. In 1980, it showed more than three times increase, 25%, and in 2000 it went past 35%, recording a seven fold rise.
Coming to bike, its popularity declined over the years. When more than 25% people biked to work in 1960, the corresponding figure for 1980 was 20%. The biggest fall was recorded in the year 2000; hardly seven percent. The percentage of those who walked stood at 35% in 1960. In the following two periods, it stood slightly above 15% and below 10% respectively, a decline more than three times.
In short, bus had been very popular in all three periods whereas car’s polarity kept on increasing. But walking and biking turned unpopular over time.

Speak about a skill you wished to learn
• What that was
• When you wanted to learn
• Why you failed to learn it
Well, we all need to horn some skills in our life.
Some are able to master all the skills they wish to learn.
Some others fail in some.
The same, way I too wished to learn a skill.
It was driving.
And I wanted to learn it while I was doing my higher education.
And I had even made arrangements with a driving school.
And as per the arrangement, I was supposed to undergo road training for 30 days, and my master wanted me to be ready in the early morning, at 6.00 every day.
Unfortunately, that was not the right time for me, and the school was not able to give me a suitable time either.
Somehow I attended a few days’ classes.
And after a few days, I turned irregular, and it went on for a long time, and finally, I was forced to quit that effort midway through.
And now, at times, I feel that I had made a big mistake.
Now we have a car, and my brother and father drive it. But sadly enough, my liking for driving is still there, it gets intense whenever I see them drive.
Sadly enough, now I find it more difficult to go for driving class than it was before when I went attending, and later abandoned. 2 mnts.

Ecological benefit is taken by ecologists as a viable option to maintain green cover. But there is an argument that this will halt growth as the benefits offered may not be at par with the production, if the land is used differently.
Essay 073
• Discuss both the views and say what you feel about the concept.
• Ecological benefit: an allowance paid to those landowners who have some measures of green cover and are ready to keep it in tact for the well-being of the planet.
Speedy carbon recycling is the need of the hour, and ecologists find ecological benefit as a feasible option. But the concern that it would slow down growth is not unfounded. I feel that ecological benefit is to be promoted by all means.
It is the talk of the world that our Planet needs to be protected from the perils of carbon. Since green cover is the only solution, ecologists are of the view that the existing green cover is not enough to meet the challenges. Naturally, there is need for individual participation. This, in turn, needs government support. If governments can meet the expectations of people, who have their own green cover, people would keep it for the well being of the world. So offering decent ecological benefits to individuals would go a long way in making the world a healthier place to be in.
However, mere green cover maintenance wouldn’t meet the needs of the world population. The concern that it would slowdown growth needs to be address by alternatives. Today, humans are much better placed with efficient technologies to be applied in agriculture to augment production, and there are research and development options to meet the rising needs of man and, finally, humans themselves can control population. This will keep his needs controlled, and the Planet may be at ease to keep the population supplied with enough resources.
Looking at both the views, it is right to conclude that future of the Planet lies in the hands of every individual, and uniform participation of individuals alone would make a difference in carbon management. No wonder, ecological benefit sounds great.

Vote share of CPI, CPI-M and INC
The line graph presents data on the share of votes three major political parties, CPI, CPI-M and INC, had in the elections held between 1977 and 2004.
In 1977, CPI had 10.38 votes, but it came down to 6.52 in the following election. It came still down to 6.21 in 1989. In the following elections till 2004 the party’s share of votes stood between 8.12 and 7.89.
If we compare these figures with that of CPI-M, it had nearly two times more votes in 1977, 20.33, but in the following year, it recorded a low, taking it to 19.09. The following elections recorded a higher percentage, elevating it to 22.27 and 22.28 in 1984 and 1989. In the following three elections, the percentages hovered between 20.72 and 21.00. It recorded a huge increase in 1999 and 2004, taking it to 31.51.
When it comes to INC, it had 29.13% votes in 1977. In the following election, it suffered nearly 3% drop. Two elections followed recorded its all time high percentage, 41.71. In the elections of 1991,1996 1998 and 1999, its percentage remained between 38.78 and 39.35. But in 2004 it had a steep fall, from 39.35 to 32.11, the biggest fall ever.
It is obvious that CPI did not have any major increase or decrease over the years, but the other two had remarkable variations in their respective shares.

Since being connected to the rest of the world is much more important today than it was before, many people feel that school children should be permitted to keep mobile phones while they are at school.
Argue for and against this statement.
There is heated discussion on whether children be allowed to carry mobiles when they are at school or not. If we look at this argument from an objective angle, we may be able to find several positive and negative aspects to the same.
Arguing for it, even a cursory look may reveal that sporting a mobile is a good idea because, today, children, the most vulnerable section, need to stay connected with the rest of the world, especially with their near and dear ones. A deeper analysis would again prove that being connected offers children many advantages by way of security, navigating while traveling, gathering information, and being networking. Since we are living in a world of revolutionary changes in the field of communication, it will be unfair of us, if we keep our children aloof.
On the other hand, this idea entails some serious practical difficulties. First of all, mobiles offer children many temptations to get influenced, mostly negatively. Children being credulous and vulnerable, mobiles may take children to wrong ways and the consequence may me very serious. Secondly, classrooms and school atmosphere are meant primarily for learning, and the need for being connected can be set aside. Finally, mobile phones cause some health risks and children, being exposed to the lures of mobiles, may overuse the same. So it is better students stay off their mobiles for a while.
In short, ‘mobile phones at school’ is a controversial issue worth debating. However, if children are disciplined enough to manage it for their good, it is fine. If it is the other way round, we better not allow them to be connected, for school hours, at least.

In short, ‘mobile phones at school’ is a controversial issue worth debating. However, if children are disciplined enough to manage it for their good, it is fine. If it is the other way round, we better not allow them to be connected, for school hours, at least.

Some people argue that the business of running a nation needs to be in the hands of emerging young leaders, while others are of opinion that it should be done by senior leaders.
Which argument do you endorse, and state why?
It is generally accepted that running a nation is a serious business, and there is controversy on whether it should be done by young leaders or it is the job of senior leaders. I for one am of opinion that it should be done by the young.
There are points to establish the fact that it is a good idea to give the reins of the nation to the hands of young leaders. The primary argument is that young leaders have great vision and spirit to take the nation forward. Secondly, these leaders will take great pride in their being what they are, and they would do their best to the welfare of the nation. Thirdly, younger leaders are less prone to corruption and similar asocial activities than the old ones whose aim is to be in the seats of power somehow.
On the other hand, if a nation continues to be run by sexagenarian and octogenarian, there is going to be slow and passive functioning and poor participation. As they are too old, an emerging nation may not be able to cope with their conventional style of functioning. Besides these, a good number of old leaders are reported to be corrupt and they hardly understand the need for change. They want to be power dealers, not leaders. This situation can easily be averted if youngsters take up the reins of power.
The above arguments make it clear that, in the present scenario, it is wise idea to let the emerging young leaders take the nation forward, and of course we can make use of the elder leaders’ expertise for many other nation building exercises.

A machine that was developed lately
What it is
When it was developed
How it works and helps man
Well, our times have a seen a lot developments
And I would like to talk about a new medical machine
Developed recently, and it is going to be a great help to man.
The machine is called ultra sound signal chain
Which, the developers say, would help doctors and patients alike.
It’s the latest development in medical care, and
The developers Frost and Sullivan says that this machine
Can be commercially developed within a few months
When produced commercially, this machine will be small
Enough to be made portable, and it is designed to
Fit in ICUs, ambulances and similar mobile triage situations.
When it comes to its medial application
It works much more efficiently than any other ultra sound based
Diagnosing device. It is very simple, and almost sound proof and
It works on a new microchip which functions like a chain does,
Identifying ultrasounds one after the other and ending up with the
Last possible detection; that is even the indecipherable sound beats
This is best suited for people
who are suffering from age related ailments.
I think this chip-supported machine will revolutionize
The way geriatric care works these days
As our century is bound to look after greater number of
Aged people than it was before, this is medical machine
Will give the aged population a little relief.
Yes, this is a great development, that is all about it sir.

A piece of jewelry, your favourite jewelry
• What, and where you got it from
• How it looks like
• And why you like it
Well, I like jewelry, and like any one else,
I have my own favourite jewelry, too.
It is a bangle-cum wristwatch.
Actually it is a gift.
And it was presented to me by my father
On my graduation day.
As I said earlier it is a two in one piece.
It primarily looks like a bangle,
But on closer look one can see a small case
which is oval in shape, and that case carries
a cute sparkling dial in it.
It looks like a human eye, and the inside of which is extremely beautiful with its time indicators, sparkling as they are of stone.
Something interesting about this particular watch is that it makes a beep every hour.
And my reasons for liking are many.
Firstly, it is a present from my father.
Secondly, it reminds me of my graduation day.
And thirdly, it is really precious cost-wise and other wise. Well, what what else is there about it?
Yeah, yes, it can be opended and closed, in the sense that I don’t have to push it in, rather I can open it and close it on my wrist
Yes, that is all about my favourite piece of jewelry.

Your favourite swimming pool
Where it is
How often you go there
Why you like it
Swimming pool? Well, these days it is hard to find swimming pools in our place. It is now mostly found in hotels and tourist or holiday destinations.
However, I happened to enjoy the convenience of a swimming pool some time back. It is part of famous water theme park in our state.
And I visited this place as part of a tour programme.
It happened last year, and we, a group of friends visited this theme park called Vega land. It s some 75 kms off our place, and we were traveling by a mini bus.
Since, it is a water theme park there are many water related activities and adventures. One of such experiences is the swimming experience we had at that location.
Actually, it is big pool with the sparkling water and clean and secure surroundings.
What I like most is its conveniences like security arrangements,
like floats and airbags meant for children, and those who are not good at swimming.
There are seating arrangements, and they provide some umbrellas and sun beds for those who need them for relaxation after a swim.
Apart from all there, there is separate section with support facilities for males and females, like change room, rest room and make up rooms.
And finally, I need to add that water in this swimming pool is periodically purified. It is done at regular intervals and it is an automatic process. So we can be sure of cleanliness and be on guard against water-borne diseases.
That is all about the swimming pool I like most.

An artwork you liked
What
When
Who you liked it
Well, it is really interesting to appreciate artworks.
Recently, I happened to visit an art exhibition
Hosted by a group of local artists in my place.
There were a lot of paintings, drawings, applied art forms and so on
Among them I got hooked to an artwork done by one Mr. Warrior
I do not know much of his whereabouts.
What I liked most is the way he presents his thought
Actually it was a modern art form in which he was trying to
Highlight some social issues like child abuse, female feuticide
Aggression against women and children.
It was oil on canvass, and the work was so attractive in the sense that
Ordinary folk themselves could understand the message
It was an blend of thought, creativity and imagination
And the colour combination he used looked really interesting
That he was selecting hard colours and strong strokes to represent
Ideas that are really hard pressing and that need immediate attention
In the bottom of the canvas, there was a message
Running into only four words.
“The real is not”
what I understood is this,
things we see around us
are not actual, and we do not see now much of
what is happening around.
Frankly, speaking this artwork made me think
I knew that there are so many evils working around us.
And, yes, I liked it very much.
That is all about the artwork l liked.
