Task 1
You should spend about 20 minutes on this task.
The diagram gives information about the process of making carbonated drinks.
Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.
You should write at least 150 words.

Using this diagram, we can thoroughly understand the process of making carbonated drinks.
Firstly, the water has to be 'cleansed'. During this process, raw water is passed through a filter to remove any impurities. The water then flows into a tank into which water softener and chemicals are added, to further ensure its purity. The cleansed water then passes through an electric heater where it is heated to a certain temperature and then cooled again in a cooling pipe. The water is then temporarily stored in a tank. Carbon dioxide, required for the carbonation of the water is mixed with the water in this tank. The carbonated water is then transported to a mixing tank where colouring, syrup and flavour is added. The final mixture is then passed through a filter for the last time to ensure that the quality of the drink is up to par. The carbonated drink can then be either filled in bottles or cans, packed in boxes, and finally transported to supermarkets where they can be sold.
Task 2
You should spend about 40 minutes on this task.
Computers are now the basis of the modern world. They should therefore be introduced into classrooms, and their programs used for direct teaching purposes. However, dependence on computers in teaching may carry a certain degree of risk to students.
Discuss both sides and give your opinion.
Give reasons for your answer, and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.
You should write at least 250 words.

Technology has become such an important part of our daily lives that it is nearly impossible to imagine a world without it. While the use of technology in classrooms may prove to carry many benefits, it is important to be aware of the risks that can come with it's excessive use, especially in growing children.
The upcoming generations are much more well-versed with the usage of computers in comparison to older generations, which means that they would probably be much more comfortable using them as well. Most jobs require individuals to know how to properly use applications such as Word, PowerPoint and Excel. Introducing these concepts to children at a young age will prepare them well for their futures. Children also tend to associate computers and other devices with having fun, therefore students would be more excited and motivated to study if they were using a computer, rather than the traditional notebooks and textbooks.
However, long-term usage of computers can deter human health. By too much exposure to the ultraviolet light emitted from computer screens at such a young age, children are bound to grow up with poor eyesight and other health conditions. The usage of computers also leads to reduced creativity in students, as they tend to search up answers instead of trying to think using their own imagination. The students may also grow to be extremely dependant on their computers and devices.
After considering the pros and cons associated with the introduction of computers into classrooms; I personally agree with the fact that the usage of computers can prove to be very beneficial. Especially during these times of the pandemic, education would not even be possible without the use of our computers and other devices. Risks associated with physical health can be managed by implementing screen times. This way students will be restricted from excessive use of their computers and other devices.
