WRITING TASK 2

You should spend about 40 minutes on this task.

Directors of large organizations receive much higher salaries than ordinary workers. Some think it is necessary while others think it is unfair.

Discuss both views and give your opinion.

You should write at least 250 words.

Sample:

In an organization, there are various positions and each position has a defined range of salary depending upon the intensity of the work. While some people find the notion to be justified, others oppose it. This essay will aim to discuss both viewpoints before giving a final opinion.

To begin with, there are several factors why some senior personnel, such as directors, are given higher remuneration than other employees. Firstly, they have years of experience under their belt which is extremely beneficial to the company. Secondly, they have the skill set required to accomplish the wide range of tasks assigned to them which might vary from organizing teams to collaborating with stakeholders to implementing strategies that will raise the company’s profit. Consequently, to handle these factors, they not only have to work within the company but also travel to various places. Thus, paying them a higher salary is perfectly acceptable and reasonable.

However, some employees, such as managers or engineers, have a workload similar to the higher personnel, if not more. For instance, a construction engineer has to frequently visit sites to ensure that tasks are carried out according to plans and conduct meetings with the stakeholders to constantly update them on the progress. This aids in delivering the tasks on time as well as maintaining a good rapport with the client. Therefore, it seems unfair if these personnel are paid lower wages despite the efforts they give.

To recapitulate, although the directors work hard to maintain the clients and enhance the profits for the company, many employees also give efforts to manage their tasks as well as maintain the image of the organization by delivering on time. Hence, I believe the high pay package of seniors is justified but the salary of hard-working employees ought to be taken into consideration as well.

Hello sir, thank you for the lecture, i learned something from it and i am grateful but i have a question though, please why was 'pasteurization' not the answer but 'inventing'? Immediately i read the question i went straight for pasteurization but when you said inventing was the answer i became confused. The question asked " Pasteur is famous for ----- a process to make milk and wine safe for consumption."
I thought the answer would be pasteurization which is actually the process.
please i don't know if you understand me sir, could you clarify more please. Thanks

Hello Lilian,
just to clarify your doubt, "Pasteur is famous for pasteurization,a process to make milk and wine safe for consumption" that is what you have suggested.
To this my answer is "Pasteur is not famous for pasteurization, rather its famous for inventing a process which was known as pasteurization.
If the question would have been "Pasteur invented a process, .................... which is famous for making milk and wine safe for consumption" then pasteurization would be the recommended answer because the blank is focusing more on the name. 

Hope i helped!!!
