Read the following dialogue to answer the questionS no.1 to 4

A person suffering from a mental illness that we usually find wandering around our neighborhood aimlessly is not dangerous, but a serious act needs to be done on this matter.

Firstly, people with mental illness who walk around our neighborhood or workplace may look scary because most of the time they are found in dirty condition and in zombie-like state (having no consciousness), but they rarely endanger the people around them, except they were disturbed first. Placing them in a secure place will minimize the chance of them being disturbed by irresponsible people compare to when we let them wander around on the street freely.

Secondly, losing their conscious mind does not mean that they have forgotten their basic instinct for food, drinks and self-preservation. We can imagine what will happen when they feel hungry or thirsty when they are roaming around on the street. They will cause trouble to the people around them. Keeping them in a special place will prevent this problem. It will bring security for the insane people and also for the society.

Thirdly, people with mental illness may not have a healthy mind, but they do have a healthy body or at least healthy body parts. Without anyone caring, they are the best target of human trafficking business as no one will notice if they are disappeared. That is why we need to protect them by placing them in a secure facility where we can always check on their condition and make sure that they are safe.

Read the following text to answer the questions no.5 to 8

Going out in the burning sun without sensible protection is extremely dangerous. There are many reasons why you should stay safe from the burning sun. Some of them are you can get sunburnt, you can get skin cancers, and you can damage your eyesight.

The first reason is that you can get extremely sunburn. Sunburn is the skin’s reaction to the ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun. You can see sunlight and feel heat (infrared radiation), but you can’t see or feel UV radiation. It can damage your skin even on cool, cloudy days.

The second reason is that you can get horrible skin cancers because of the damaging light rays. In Australia, over many people die from skin cancer because they do not stay safe in the burning sun. Although this can be cured, the prevention of getting burnt is a better solution than curing this skin cancer.
Another reason is that too much time out in bright sunlight can damage your eyesight. The intense ultraviolet (UV) rays of the sun damage sensitive cells in the eyes, eventually affecting vision. Experts say it is difficult to isolate the exact amount of damage that UV radiation imposes on the eye over a long period. However, a number of studies have shown that the effects build up and may increase the chance of developing eye problems later in life. These may include cataracts, a clouding of the lens of the eye.

The last, after knowing all dangers of the burning sun without sensible protection, I recommend you to wear a hat which can help your face, head, and hair stay safe in the sun. You should also put on a shirt which can protect you from many skin diseases, and you had better use sunscreen and wear sunglasses to prevent eye problems.

Do you agree that music is important in our life? Yes I do, music has certain role completing our day to day activities. Here are some reasons why music is heard everywhere and anywhere.

Music is a way to express feelings. When we fall in love, the kind of music we’d listen to would be all about love. When we’re sad, we would go for music that is melancholic in nature and immerse ourselves in the sadness. When we’re happy, we’d choose songs with happy tunes too.
