🔸Cambridge IELTS 17, Test 1🔸

Two illustrations are provided showing the manufacturing quarter of a town called Norbiton at present and the future layout.
Overall, this area will be completely transformed into a residential area.

At present, the area is located east of the town with a river running from the west to the east in the north, north of which is farmland. In the middle, there is a roundabout with two exits, one of which links to a main road in the south and the other is oriented towards the east, and some factories are scattered on both sides of it as well as around the roundabout.

In the future, two new exits will be added to the roundabout. One heading northwest and the other north, which will cross a newly added bridge allowing access to new housing, leaving only the countryside in the northeast. A small roundabout, will be constructed on the main road, linking to the large roundabout. The factories will be replaced with housing and facilities such as shops and a medical centre. A school will be built in the east with a new park located nearby.

🔸Cambridge IELTS 17, Test 2🔸

The table illustrates how a police force in a British region was financed between 2017 and 2018; while the pie charts depict the distribution of those funds during the same period.
Overall, the police received the most funding from the government in both years; meanwhile, police officer and staff wages, albeit the highest in both years, decreased.

Starting with funding, in 2017 the total funds received was £304.7 million. Over half of which was from the national government, at £175.5 million while the remaining came from local taxes and other sources, with £91.2 million and £38 million respectively. By 2018, the total budget had grown to £318.6 million. Specifically, the amount from the national government rose slightly to £177.8 million and local taxes contributed £102.3 million. The figure for other sources increased marginally to £38.5 million.

Turning to the expenditure, salaries for officers and staff were the highest in both years, with 75% in 2017 and it fell to 69% in 2018. Technology received 8% initially but the proportion almost doubled to 14% in 2018. Buildings and transport had the same proportion of 17% in each year.

Test 3, Writing Task 2

Model Answer

It is often said that music has the power to unite and connect people, regardless of their cultural backgrounds or ages. I completely agree with this view, and will give my reasons below.

Music can certainly reach across cultural and national boundaries and bring people together. Perhaps the best example of this would be the Live Aid concerts that took place back in the 1980s, and which were broadcast to a global audience. Two live events were held simultaneously in the UK and the US, and the objective was to raise funds for famine relief in Ethiopia. The concerts were a huge success, both in terms of the number of people around the world who watched them and their impact on international public awareness of the famine. They demonstrated, I believe, that music truly is the planet’s global language.

Just as it transcends cultures, music also has the ability to connect people from different generations. Regardless of age, we can all enjoy a memorable melody, a strong rhythm or a beautiful singing voice, and the best songs seem to have the same magical effect on all of us. This would explain why televised music competitions, such as ‘The X Factor’ or ‘The Voice’, are such popular prime-time shows. These programs attract incredibly broad audiences because singing and popular songs appeal to children, parents and grandparents alike. I would argue that no other form of entertainment can bring families together in this way.

In conclusion, I believe that music is unique in its capacity to create shared experiences between people, irrespective of culture and age.

#True #False #NotGiven

The following excerpt comes from test 3 in Cambridge IELTS book 10.

The travel industry includes: hotels, motels and other types of accommodation; restaurants and other food services; transportation services and facilities; amusements, attractions and other leisure facilities; gift shops and a large number of other enterprises. Since many of these businesses also serve local residents, the impact of spending by visitors can easily be overlooked or underestimated. In addition, Meis (1992) points out that the tourism industry involves concepts that have remained amorphous to both analysts and decision makers. Moreover, in all nations this problem has made it difficult for the industry to develop any type of reliable or credible tourism information base in order to estimate the contribution it makes to regional, national and global economies.

❓Are the two statements below true, false, or not given?

1. Visitor spending is always greater than the spending of residents in tourist areas.

2. It is easy to show statistically how tourism affects individual economies.
