Imagine that you are doing a project on what young Zetlanders know about marine life. You have found some data on the subject – the results of a survey conducted among young Zetlanders (see the table below). Comment on the survey data and give your opinion on the subject of the project. The survey question: What sea creature is the smartest? Choose one option Dolphin | 42 Blue whale | 25 Octopus | 18 Manta ray | 10 Sea lion | 5 Write 200–250 words. Use the following plan: – make an opening statement on the subject of the project; – select and report 2–3 facts; – make 1–2 comparisons where relevant and give your comments; – outline a problem that can arise with exploring sea depth and suggest a way of solving it; – conclude by giving and explaining your opinion on the importance of studying marine life.

Возможный ответ: The project I am currently working on aims to find out what young Zetlanders know about marine life. I have found a table showing the results of a survey on this topic. In this essay, I will analyse the data and provide my opinion on the subject of the project. According to the table, the most popular response to the question "What sea creature is the smartest?" is "Dolphin" (42%), followed by "Blue whale" (25%). The least frequently chosen option is "Sea lion", at only 5%. Comparing the data, it is clear that the percentage of the respondents who choose "Dolphin" as their response is significantly higher than the percentage of those who opt for "Octopus" (18%). This is not surprising because dolphins are widely known for their intelligence, social behaviour and ability to learn tricks. Furthermore, "Blue whale" (25%) is more popular than "Manta ray" (10%), which may indicate that young people associate intelligence with the size of the animal. Notably, one of the problems that can arise with exploring sea depth is that it is physically challenging and requires expensive equipment. A good solution to this problem is to use modern technology such as remote-operated vehicles and underwater drones to study marine life without putting human lives at risk. In conclusion, I believe that studying marine life is very important because it helps us understand the ocean ecosystem and protect endangered species. Everyone should appreciate the diversity of life beneath the waves.

Imagine that you are doing a project on choosing universities in Zetland. You have found some data on the subject – the results of a survey conducted among Zetland high school students (see the pie chart below). Comment on the survey data and give your opinion on the subject of the project. Write 200–250 words. Use the following plan: – make an opening statement on the subject of the project; – select and report 2–3 facts; – make 1–2 comparisons where relevant and give your comments; – outline a problem related to choosing a university to study at and suggest a way of solving it; – conclude by giving and explaining your opinion on the role of higher education in our lives.

Возможный ответ: The project I am currently working on aims to find out what determines the choice of a university for Zetland high school students. I have found a pie chart showing the results of a survey on this topic. In this essay, I will analyse the data and provide my opinion on the subject of the project. According to the pie chart, the most popular response to the question "What determines your choice of a university most?" is "Teaching staff" (30%), followed by "Location" (28%). The least frequently chosen factor is "University accommodation", at only 8%. Comparing the data, it is clear that the percentage of the respondents who choose "Teaching staff" as their response is higher than the percentage of those who opt for "Tuition fee" (16%). This is not surprising because students want to receive quality education from experienced professors. Furthermore, "Facilities for students" (18%) is more popular than "University accommodation" (8%), which may indicate that students prioritise learning resources such as libraries and laboratories over living conditions. Notably, one of the problems related to choosing a university to study at is that students may feel overwhelmed by the number of options available. A good solution to this problem is to research universities thoroughly, attend open days and seek advice from career counsellors. In conclusion, I believe that higher education plays an important role in our lives because it provides knowledge, skills and career opportunities. Choosing the right university is a decision that should be made carefully.
