Master IELTS General Training Volume 4 Writing Practice Test 1

Some people believe that paparazzi should not follow celebrities. Because, it invades their privacy. But, I think personally it does have advantages and disadvantages. If someone as a photographer takes some photos of celebrities on some occasions. I do not think it creates any problem for their privacy. But, on some occasions. For example, on any sensitive places like in a president house or any government places. In these places, I think it creates privacy for the celebrities. As paparazzi, they have a passion to take photos in different places. So, they can follow celebrities. But, some people think it is the price of fame. I also disagree with this opinion somewhat. Because, celebrities want paparazzi to take their photo wherever they are in public places. That’s why I think paparazzi always follow celebrities. But, as discussed above, except for some sensitive places like in a government house or in a president's house. Paparazzi should not go after celebrities. Sometimes, the celebrities also feel disturbed with paparazzi activities. So, paparazzi always take care of this issue when they take photos of celebrities. In conclusion, I think personally it has some advantages and some disadvantages. So, from that perspective, i think paparazzi follow some basic rules during photo session otherwise it creates some privacy issues for celebrities.

Everyone notices that influencers nowadays live a bright life and got anything or access to any parties just because of what they are, However, they face some problems like being on the spot everywhere, and sometimes they got footage even if they do not know or simply do not want this, In this essay, I am going to expose more about people who see it is okay to take footage and the other side who not support at all.

Any human wants to be isolated sometimes to re-charge his/her soul in order to face the world again, eat in his/her favourite place, shopping with close friends and so on, but being famous nowadays can be hard to do this in peace, As a result, they become more depressed and not comfortable with what they are, A study on London University br Dr Ahmed Belal shows that the more celebrities got paparazzi, the more likely they become depressed, and obviously, I highly support that side.

On the other hand, some people see that is fine to know every detail of the celebrities what they prefer to eat, what they do on vacations even which hair product they use, and this is because they are on the spot every second and they loved by the people,  A study on Cairo University br Dr Ahmed Belal shows that 80% of the teenagers in UK need to know how the influencers live just because they reflecting that live on themselves, in short, live a fake life just for a moment away from there normal lifes.

In conclusion, some people see famous celebrities need private life to enjoy and others do not, but we have to know that influencers are just human and need private life as well.

Living luxurious celebrity life has its own pros and cons. Many people are of the opinion that the paparazzi should not invade the privacy of Celebrities by following them everywhere. However, a significant number of people believe that being followed everywhere is the price of the fame that they have to pay. In this essay I will discuss both the opinions and then draw a conclusion of my own.
Paparazzi should understand that celebrities are also equal citizens who have a right of privacy just as a normal citizen enjoys this right. Recently, one of the celebrities went out for a dinner with her friends. When she came out of the restaurant, the flashlights from the cameras caused her temporary blindness and she fell from the restaurant stairs. Following them everywhere doesn’t only breach their privacy but can cause them mental and physical harm as well.
Being famous gets you an unavoidable media attention which is a price of fame. One of my very close friends who works in the media industry, apprised me that the more pictures you have, the more amount is paid to you. You also get invited to many social gatherings where you get a chance to meet competitors which paves way for collaborations. This is the price that the celebrity class has to pay for the fame and they should be okay with it.
In conclusion, I think that both the sides have some fair points. However, I believe that the paparazzi should respect the privacy and at-least leave the celebrity class alone when they are with family or friends. After all they are humans as well. If possible, they may ask for a few minutes and if given they should leave afterwards. This is a win-win solution for both.

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am a customer of your ABC bank of XYZ branch. I have been your loyal customer for decades and intend to continue to do so for several more years.

Unfortunately, I would like to report a distressful situation that I am currently in as I notice several unauthorized transactions on my credit card bill.

As I am a responsible person and happen to be the only earning member of my family, I can not imagine making so many unnecessary purchases in a branded clothing store.

The purchases here amount to more than my credit limit and I assure you that I would never have made such rouge purchases because I still have pending EMIs from my recent car loan which I have taken from the same bank.

Therefore, I would humbly request you consider waiving off these unauthorized charges from my Credit card and block it to avoid any further misuse of my card in the hands of the exploiter. 

Moreover, I would also recommend the bank increase the security through a dual verification system for all the transactions and notify the customer of every transaction happening on their accounts to add an extra layer of security.

Your sincere Customer,
Fatah Banu

Although, many believe that fame comes at a price and celebrities ought to pay it if they want to be in the limelight.
I personally believe that dragging unnecessary attention toward their day-to-day routines is something we can skip.

On one hand, it is important that we recognize celebrities for their achievements and encourage them for the work they have done. Celebrities were once just common people who worked hard and went above and beyond their comfort zones to achieve things that fewer people would even dream of. Such people, in every industry, deserve to be celebrated for their skills and hard work. For example, I really admire M.S. Doni for his amazing skills in the field of cricket which makes him an all-rounder and has earned him global fame. He has supported team Indi to win the world cup under his Captainship. Hence, the movie based on his auto-biography has earned immense popularity not only among Indians but worldwide. 

On the other hand, we can observe that many of the media personnel keep hoarding their personal life instead of focusing on their career achievements. Paparazzi has even gone so far as to target the close family and friends of celebrities causing them to feel insecure and lack freedom. This can create a negative impact on the lives of celebrities and make them feel a lack of security and gives a threat of negative publicity. I personally witnessed this when a popular South Indian actor visited our College as a chief guest for an Annual event while promoting their new movie. The love of students and staff for their favorite actor was understandable however, the media left no room for us to be able to meet and greet our chief guest and were covering him from all corners. Due to this behavior of the media, most of us were disappointed to be left without autographs. The actor later expressed his remorse that he was unable to meet all the students and gave an assurance that he shall make up for it in his upcoming visits. 

Therefore, even though most people believe that celebrities have a responsibility to share every important event of their lives with the people who admire them. I strongly believe that celebrities are also humans and should be given space and not be hoarded with unnecessary attention in their private moments.

My name is  hamza holding a Master card (number2222 5252 5566 6055), being a consumer and dealing with your bank since 10 years now as a loyal customer and benefiting. Fortunately, in the past years I never got a chance or reason to raise an issue but unfortunately a matter has taken place which needs your attention as early as possible.
This weekend while I was going through my card statement few purchases showed up which were not done by me or any member of my family including the supplementary card holders. The statement shows that a purchase of a diamond necklace, gold bangles and a rolex watch was bought last month but none of these were a part of our shopping for the past 2 years.

As a trusting customer I am requesting your interest and intervention in the case while you may carry out the required investigations please refund my card with the amount as soon as possible.
Looking forward to continue banking with you.

Best Regards,
