[Ankita] Writing Practice Test 374947
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.

The diagram highlights the five primary steps involved in production of carbonated drinks, which are: water clening; heating evaporation and carbonation; mixing; filtering and filling; and packaging.
In the first step, raw water passes through a filter and then through a chamber where it is softened and chemicals are added. Next, it is pumped to electric heaters for the second step of the process. After being heated, it is evaporated by passing through a cooling pipe which opens into a chamber with an inlet for carbon dioxide. This is where the drink is carbonated.
Following this, the carbonated water enters the mixing tank where attributes like colour and flavour are added to it along with the syrup. It is then filtered and filled into bottles and cans. When finally ready, similar products are made into packages to be supplied to supermarkets.
Through the various steps, attributes continue to be added, consequently leading to production of carbonated drinks. The process, hence reaches completion.
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.

With the rapid development in technology, human dependence on machines has significantly grown. Many believe that it is wise that computers enter the field of teaching; however, many argue that it can lead to health problems in the students. My opinion is that the use of computers in the classroom must be limited as this can endanger students' health.
Proponents of using computer programs for education believe that computers provide ample space for storing information. Likewise, an unlimited stock of information can be accessed easily without having to shuffle through pages to find a particular word. For example, when searching for a specific article, the student has to write down merely a few words from it in a computer program to access the entire article. Whereas, without a computer, he has to shuffle the pages of a book to find particular phrases manually. Hence, a computer makes studying easy.
On the other hand, the group advocating the supremacy of traditional methods of studying believes that viewing the computer screen for prolonged periods will consequently lead to weak eyesight. Furthermore, studies have shown that using traditional mediums for taking notes helps students memorise bet while the opposite is observed while using computers.
I strongly feel that students should be allowed to use computers only after completion of primary education; that too in a limited amount. A young student for whom research work is not necessary has no use of computers. Excess dependence will harm students' intellectual abilities as well as their physical health. Moreover, the problem of finding particular topics can be mitigated by teaching students about using a table of contents, tags, and taking notes.
In conclusion, though using computers in the education sector has its advantages, it is wise to use them to a limited extent such that the students' health is not compromised.
