In his article titled “Promising results from cancer study”, Dakin F.P reports positive findings from a research project on cancer A group of US researchers has carried out trials of a new vaccine which is effective against lung cancer Although the study was limited to fewer than fifty people, the results were very promising Some of the patients at

an advanced stage of the disease were cured Each patient in the trial had their own vaccine which activated their bodies’ immune system and enabled it to fight the cancer It

is hoped that other forms of cancer can be cured in a similar way

* Suggested Answer:

The bar chart and pie chart give information about why US residents travelled and what travel problems they experienced in the year 2009

It is clear that the principal reason why Americans travelled in 2009 was to commute to and from work In the same year, the primary concern of Americans, with regard to the trips they made, was the cost of travelling

Looking more closely at the bar chart, we can see that 49% of the trips made by Americans in 2009 were for the purpose of commuting By contrast, only 6% of trips were

visits to friends or relatives, and one in ten trips were for social or recreation reasons Shopping was cited as the reason for 16% of all travel, while unspecific ‘personal reasons’ accounted for the remaining 19%

According to the pie chart, price was the key consideration for 36% of American travellers Almost one in five people cited safety as their foremost travel concern, while aggressive driving and highway congestion were the main issues for 17% and 14% of the travelling public Finally, a total of 14% of those surveyed thought that access to public transport or space for pedestrians were the most important travel issues

* Suggested Answer:

Industrial and agricultural revolutions have pulled many parts of the world out of financial crisis but they also poses awkard ecological issues The relationship between economic growth and environment quality has not yet drawn definite conclusion as many countries cannot decide which is worth sacrificing In my opinion, the policy depends on the state

of each nation

As regards the developing world, the government should prioritize pursuing economic growth for two main reasons For starters, economic development improves the livelihoods of the underprivileged In fact, poverty rate is measured by the number of people with income below a certain level Only when the Third World can raise the standard of human living, income and wealth would they be able to achieve economic growth Through increasing industrial, agricultural and service activities, developing countries may attract huge influx of foreign invesment, encourage the emergence of multinationals and create new jobs, thereby people, especially the poor, are able to earn much more money and life themselves out of poverty In addition, pursuing economic growth is the key to narrowing the gap with superpowers The ever-changing society is the term often used to describe the state of our present civilization as new technology, new brands of product are innovated, GDP of rich nations is rapidly increased and competition is more intense than ever before If poor countries do not set agenda for economic development, the global influence of rich ones may turn them to a worse situation then China used to serve as a typical example of pursuing economic growth at the expense of the environment The Chinese economy experienced astonishing growth in the last 35 years that catapulted the country to become the world's second largest economy

In terms of developed countries where education and life quality matter little, the future target should lie on environmental protection Firstly, protecting the environment helps combat climate change Nowadays, pollution in most urban areas is soaring as greenhouse gases from industrial and agricultural activities are emitted without proper treatment These contaminants not only wreak havoc on human human health but also cause Greenhouse Effect Air pollution is killing about 4,000 people in China a day, accounting for one in six premature deaths in the world’s most populous country, which makes China one of the world’s biggest climate change contributors To combat, a cleanup strategy that has recently been adopted imposes tax on heavy polluters Moreover, corrupt offcials and rule-dodging bosses will be sent to prison if found guilty Moreover, environemental policies also allow rich countries to prevent looming natural disasters and guarantee lives and asset of people because in these days, climate change has lead to melting of ice sheets, more severe droughts, floods and heavy snowfall Secondly, environmental preservation saves natural resources and ensures survival for future generations Today,

due to large number of activities in industry and agriculture, huge amount of energy is exxcessively exploited and consumed to operate modern machines and meet burgeoning demands of citizen Coal, gas and oil are burned to generate electricity and are major energy of most vehicles Besides, deforestation, especially slash-and-burn agriculture in many parts of the world, is threatening life support of our offspring Consuming alternative energy like solar, wind and tidal power is extremely urgent

Sustainable development is a perfect model that every country want to achieve The World Commission on Environment and Development defines the term “sustainable development” as development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ablity of future generation to meet theirs Its implementation requires progress in three aspects, also known as the three pillars of sustainable development, which are environment, economy and society These three pillars are interconnected and it is essential to strive for a balance between the pillars For many years, one of the predominant conventional wisdoms in policy making was that cutting greenhouse gas emissions neccessitates a sacrifice in economic growth However, through the experience

of most developed and developing countries, economic growth can complement the environmental conservation and transitioning to a low-carbon economy can go hand in hand which increased access to economic opportunities For example, Singapore, in recent years, has embraced green growth policy that places emphasis on the value of natural resources and the environment while at the same time ensuring equitable and sustainable economic growth Through wise policy making, countries can tackle both the challenges

of climate change and economic growth, which would pave a way for realizing sustained economic growth

In conclusion, economic development and protecting the environment are not always incompatible The emphasis for developing countries is on improving living standards, income and wealth so economic growth will take precedence over the environment However, when it comes to developed nations, they tend to prioritize ecological protection over other matters The implemenation of sustainable development is one way

to fulfil both targets at the same time

* Tapescripts:

Part 1:

Interviewer: My next guest is Brigid McConville, a journalist who decided to get herself a 'life coach' Brigid, what made you do it and what is a 'life coach'?

Brigid: Well, all was not entirely well with my life Nothing drastic I just felt 'stuck'

and in need of change, both on the work front - too much to do, too little time - and

at home - ditto, I wasn't miserable enough for therapy or counselling I simply wanted to get a little more from life Until recently, the options for someone in my

situation would have been extremely limited Now, however, legions of 'life coaches' are out there, ready and waiting to come to the aid of the frustrated and down-at-heart For about £40 a session, your personal coach will telephone you once a week, and spend half

an hour talking to you in an effort to help you sort your life out

Interviewer: But isn't this just another self-improvement fad? Like all the self-help books and tapes?

Brigid: Well, I was a bit dubious myself, but I decided to try it I booked a course with Fiona Harrold, a leading British coach She identified my anxieties almost immediately Within half an hour of our first conversation, I found myself agreeing that the first thing I had to tackle was my deeply ambivalent relationship with money Yes, of course it was rooted in childhood - but what could we actually do about it? Fiona is a passionate advocate of self-belief and, with her characteristic verve, she told me I had to carve out a

whole new way of thinking about myself I must see myself as 'a magnet for money',

she said And she told me: 'Consider yourself someone to whom cash flows effortlessly Why shouldn't you have an easy life, an abundance of pleasure, leisure and luxury - and all without feeling any guilt?'

Interviewer: How did you react to that?

Brigid: Well, it seemed such a preposterous idea that I laughed out loud down the telephone But, undeterred by my scepticism, Fiona told me to suspend my disbelief, and gave me a clutch of positive affirmations with which to brainwash myself into readiness for riches She told me to repeat the following words whenever possible: 'I, Brigid, am

now ready to have the ideal life that I deserve.' Doing this, I found, cheered me up no

end

Interviewer: What else did she tell you?

Brigid: Well, subsequent sessions were more practical First came the mandatory de-cluttering - she told me to throw out as much unnecessary jumble and rubbish as possible,

clearing space for all the goodies to come - once the money started to roll in Then we began trying to cure my personal finance phobia; I dutifully did my sums, and started saving something, however small, every month My work also came under close scrutiny, too, as I made up my mind to concentrate on jobs that really interested me Exactly which issues you tackle during coaching is up to you According to Fiona, most people want to get organised at home and at work, make the most of their abilities and sort out money

problems She reckons that building up confidence is vital She really does believe that

people are capable of doing anything they want to do, and that all that stands in their way is childhood conditioning

Interviewer: So what did you get out of it all? And would you recommend it?

Brigid: Well, coaching makes you get on and do all those things you've put off for so long, because there is the deadline of the next session If you don't act in time, your coach probably won't want to speak to you So coaching is hardly a soft option But for me, it has provided a great boost There have been no instant miracles, but things are looking up

at work and financially, money and I are definitely on better terms I still have my doubts

about the 'me first' approach - but, then again, it is a healthy counterbalance to the

`me last' way of thinking I am used to

Interviewer: Thanks, Brigid Now, if you want to find out more about life coaches

I do research and artificial intelligence at the University of Toronto and at the vector Institute artificial intelligence is giving us a lot of really great new applications and it's

providing a lot of benefit in a lot of areas but as artificial intelligence moves out of the

research labs and into the real world more and more people are becoming aware of some ethical concerns that kind of go along with some of these applications (1) so

there are three big ethical concerns with artificial intelligence the first one involves what

we actually use artificial intelligence for normally when we develop AI you know for normally when we develop AI you know in the lab we're developing it for reasons we

think are good so we're using video tracking of people in healthcare settings to make

sure they're recovering from an injury (2) or something like that but the same

technology can be taken out and put into smart bombs to track people or be used by governments to track their citizens as they as they move around which is sort of Orwellian spooky future which we may not necessarily agree with so we need to figure out when

we're developing these AI algorithms what are the potential outcomes that we don't necessarily expect the second ethical concern with AI has to do with who has access to AI

am increasingly AI has to run on bigger and faster and more expensive machines and

the only people who can afford those machines are these big international companies which means that fewer and fewer people actually can control the destiny of artificial intelligence (3) and we don't necessarily want that we want all of us to kind of

have a say and how AI will be used to benefit our society in the future the third ethical

concern that I see with artificial intelligence is that artificial intelligence doesn't exactly

think the way that we do and it doesn't necessarily share our values so the risk isn't

that you know AI will be malicious against us (4) the risk is that AI will do exactly

what we tell it to do and it'll do it in a way we don't expect the problem is that we tell artificial intelligence what we want but we define it in a very vague way and the AI just wants to make us happy so it'll find a way to do what we tell it to do but because it doesn't share our values it'll do things that are unexpected and kind of bad and the obvious consequence of this is stuff like bias if we don't tell you know are the artificial intelligence

that we don't appreciate bias against certain ethnic groups or genders and so on the AI

might inherently adopt bias from whatever data it gathers so we need to figure out ways to limit that effect to make sure that the data we provide to the AI is as free as

by a as possible (5) and also to look at the behavior of the AI and sort of mitigate against

the risks that this sort of alien mind behavior causes I think we all need to have a big open discussion about you know what AI can do what it can't do and how we can manipulate things to make sure that it can be used for the benefit of as many people as possible
