For the reasons, which I mentioned above, I believe groups and organizations play an essential role in our life. Moreover, people’s evolution would not be possible without them.



89.It has been said, � Not everything that is learned is contained in books.� Compare and contrast knowledge gained from experience with knowledge gained from books. In your opinion, which source is more important? Why?

People are learning and practicing through their entire life. I believe that life experience and practice are the basic reasons of the humankind’s evolution. However, in my opinion, knowledge gained from books plays a very important role in the modern life.

The most obviously important advantage of books is that they hold all knowledge gained by previous generations. People write books about their discoveries and inventions, which are gained through practice and experience. This knowledge is accumulated in books that are passed from generation to generation. So, basically, people get all knowledge about the previous achievements from books, analyze it and than, according to their experience and new data, write new books. In this case, books are the holders of humankind’s experience.

For example, at old times people thought that the Earth was flat. It was concluded from observations and studdying. However, the next generations, using the experience of their ancestors, proved that the Earth was round.

Personally, I think that books are very important because they are able to give people the basic and fundamental knowledge. Books store history, the important events and discoveries. Without them it is difficult and sometimes impossible to move forward, make new discoveries and inventions.

To summarize, I think a person should take basic knowledge from books because it will help him to make his own inventions, conclusions and discoveries. Only using both books and one � s experience one can move forward.

A company has announced that it wishes to build a large factory near your community. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of this new influence on your community. Do you support or oppose the factory? Explain your position

I am from Saint-Petersburg, Russia. I believe that building a large factory near my community has advantages as well as disadvantages. In the following paragraphs I will list basic benefits and losses that will be brought by a new factory.

For several reasons, I think that a new factory will not be a good addition to my neighborhood. First of all, factories often bring pollution. They are prone to contaminating the local air and water. Second of all, factories make noise. Another important aspect of building a new factory near by is that it will make the local traffic heavy. As a result of this, the amount of traffic congestions will increase, as well as contamination of the air. So, all these obviously will not make one’s life happier and healthier in my community.

From the other side, I believe that a new factory will bring some advantages to my community. First of all, it will bring new job opportunities. Many specialists will be required to work there. Second of all, I think many local community facilities will have to be renovated to obtain reliable supply of water and electricity. So, some old pipes may be changed. Another important benefit of this is that the local roads in order to manage the increasing traffic will be rebuilt and widened.

However, I do not think that listed above benefits are worth all these troubles including water contamination and the constant pollution of air. From my point of view all factories must be built far from the people communities because they can be really harmful for people’s health.

Business should hire employeBusiness should hire employees for their entire lives. Do you agree or disagree? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer

Should business hire employees for their entire lives? There are a couple of aspects on this issue. Personally I don � t agree with the statement. Down bellow I will give reasons and examples to support my opinion.

The first reason is a business reason. Business is dynamic substance; the purpose of the business could be changed. For instance, today the factory builds war aircraft but tomorrow it will build toys. Thus the employee’s skills will be unnecessary. For such reasons employers allow the worker to get another profession during employment period on their expense or invest in study fund or directors insurance. As a result, both sides are satisfied the employer is free of his obligations and the worker gets additional profession or skills .

The second reason is from employee � s point of view. To become a professional employee should work in different jobs. Let see the doctor � s career before they open own clinic: doctors work in first aid, then they work in hospitals, and finally they get enough experience to continue as self employed. When you work in the same place for years it is impossible to improve your skills level, because you don’t have new professional opportunities to enrich self experience. Thus it is hardly recommended to change job or work positions every two or three years.

The last reason is an official reason. When the worker is hired through entire lives, the next employees � generation couldn � t be promoted, such situation is very dangerous for several things: slow career progress causes the worker get low salary for long term so he couldn � t buy apartments or build a family. Consequently, the nation becomes older and weaker.

On contrary to all given above reasons, there are people that support the statement. They argue that entire life work gives peoples stability and peace of mind, and saves employment till the pension age. But in my opinion the good pension conditions is better to create at the career beginning, thus after age of fifty five the employee could afford work less and enjoy life and traveling.

To conclude, it is true that the uncertainty of the life and the world instability bring people to agree with the statement, but I think you must trust yourself and not the business you are working for, because when the business sinks, nobody will help the employees and only skilled workers will survive.
