The pictorial step by step diagram shows the process involved in making carbonated drinks. Overall, there are four major steps involved in the manufacturing of carbonated drinks and one step for the packaging of the product to be sent to the consumers.
First, there is a water cleaning process where raw water is filtered and sent through a pipe where the water is cleaned using water softener and chemicals and later on it is pumped to reach the second stage. Secondly, the water passes through electric heaters and cooler pipe where it is heated and evaporated and sent to the container with carbon dioxide. The water upon coming in contact with the carbon dioxide is converted to the carbonated water.
Following this, the carbonated water passes through a pipe to reach the mixing tank . The carbonated water is mixed in the tank with the specific type of colouring, syrup and flavour that is required, and after teh mixing process is completed, the water is filtered to obtain the end product. The filtered water is packed up in two ways, in bottles and in cans. Soon after teh packaging process is finished, the bootles and cans of carbonated drinks are sent to supermarket.

Some people think that outdoor activities are more beneficial for children’s development than playing computer games. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
You should write at least 250 words.
Children are at a blooming stage in their lives. And the activities that they are engaged in their childhood has a lot of impact in their adulthood as well. In the recent days, with increase in the number of video games being launched, we have seen children spending most of their time playing these games and very few children are interested in the outdoor activities. In my opinion, both the computer games as well as the outdoor activities are equally important in the children's development.
Learning to play outdoor is comprised of performing series of physical activities. This keeps the children busy with the exercise, and it is a way of leading healthy life. These childrens can have improved metabolism through regular physical activities which is likely to lead towards a healthy life. On the other hand, playing video games where children stare at the computer screen for hours, has increased possibility of children suffering from health issues like, damaged eye sight, back pain and joint pain.
Furthermore, going outside to play can help you obtain socialisation skills. Outdoor activities required many players and in the process of playing with other kids, children learn socialisation skills. These skills are considered to be of paramount importance later in life when these children reach their adult life. With good socialisation skills and the ability to befriend others, children later in life, can easily be a team player which is an strength that the job provider are looking for.
On the flip side, it is without a doubt that children playing video games have less chances of getting hurt. The kids playing outdoors are prone to come home with injury. These injury can at times be fatal and lead to the permanent health damage of the children. Meanwhile, playing video games in your home has less possibility of such injury.
Similarly, it cannot be argued that video games are played by many children around the globe. This can increase the chances of children interacting with other kids of similar age and befriending them. This can even lead to exchange of cultures which can be a learning curve.
All in all, I believe that both the video games as well as the outdoor activities have their own pros and cons towards the children's development. While it is true that children can be healthy and more interactive when they indulge themselves in outdoor activity, it cannot be argued that video games is the gift of modern era with its own perks that I mentioned earlier. And, children should be up to date with the modern world. Hence, I believe that kids should learn to balance playing outdoors and playing computer games.
