TOTAL 5.

TASK 1
The given line chart illustrates the number of tourists paying a visit to a Caribbean
island from 2010 to 2017. Overall, the total number of visitors staying on cruise
ships had an upward trend, and the number of visitors staying on the island almost
did not fluctuate. The visitors staying on cruise ships made up the least in the total,
between 2010 to 2013, the number of tourists fluctuated a little bit starting at 0,25
million visitors in 2010 and going back in 2012, then went up to 0,5 million
visitors in 2011 and 2013. In next the rest of 4 years, it increased steadily, which
represented from 1 million to 2 million visitors. The number of tourists on cruise
ships remained at more than 0.5 million visitors in the first 2 years then began to
rise sharply in 2012, at more than 1 million visitors and unchanged from 2013 to
2015 which accounted for 1.5 million. In 2016, it declined generally and then went
back to 1.5 million visitors in 2017. Finally, looking at the chart, we can see the
number of tourists in total sored ceaselessly from 1 million to more than 2.5
million visitors. In 2016, it didn’t change and moved upward remarkably to 3.5
million in 2017
MODEL 1:
The given line graph illustrates how many visitors traveled to a particular
Caribbean island over 7 years starting from 2010.
In general, the total number of tourists visiting the Caribbean island always
increased during the whole period. Additionally, the figure for visitors staying on
cruise ships was lower than that for those choosing to stay on the island during
most of the period.
In 2010, the total quantity of tourists traveling to the Caribbean island stood at
exactly 1 million, with 75.000 of them opting for staying on the island, whereas
the rest decided to stay on cruise ships. Over the following 2 years, while there
was an insignificant drop to reach the lowest point of just below 0.25 million in
the number of visitors staying on cruise ships, staying on the island was still a
more popular choice with 1.25 million visitors.
In the final year, the Caribbean island witnessed a sharp rise to 3.5 million total
visitors. Likewise, the number of tourists who stayed on cruise ships experienced
a sharp increase to precisely 2 million, surpassing the figure for those staying on
the island (1.5 million).
MODEL 2
The line graph details the total number of tourists, as well as where they stayed,
going to a given Caribbean island from 2010 to 2017. Overall, total tourists rose
considerably, and those staying on cruise ships increased in
particular, overtaking those staying on the island itself, which underwent a
more moderate increase.
Visitors residing on the island during their travels began the period at about .75
million, about 500,000 above those on cruise ships. From there, the numbers for
the former climbed quickly to 1.5 million by 2013, a full million higher than the
latter at the same time. Then those on the island were relatively steady until
the end of the time surveyed, while cruise ship passengers rose
steadily, surpassing the former figure midway through 2015 and reaching a
peak in 2017 of 2 million.
The progressive patterns for visitors on cruise ships and the island
were reflected in substantial gains for overall visitors, which started at 1 million
in 2010, grew consistently to 2.7 million in 2015 before plateauing through
2016, and then increased sharply to 3.5 million by the end of the period.

TASK 2
In my opinion, reading books online had both pros and cons. First, they will spend
less money than buying books. For example, to buy a new book you need to spend
$16.95, but by reading books online you needn’t save and waste any money. Only
with a smartphone or a laptop connecting to your wifi, you can access and can
choose so many favorite books on the Internet. It’s portable to bring just only a
smartphone, even without wifi, you can download books and can read every time.
Additionally, on the internet, there will have books that the bookstores not selling.
However, although reading books online is beneficial and convenient for lots of
people but it has some disadvantages. If you look at the smartphone or laptop’s
screen for a long time, it will have a bad effect on your eyes. It makes your eyes
tired and dry, and for a long time, you will be short-sighted. In contrast to reading
printed books, your eyes are comfortable.
MODEL 1
Many people claim that in the future, printed newspapers or books will become
obsolete because online reading materials are available for everyone. I firmly
disagree with this conviction because printed newspapers and books will always
have a place in our lives and not all online reading materials are free of charge.
To begin with, saying that people can freely read anything is fallacious. I admit
that many websites allow people to read their content without having to pay
anything. However, popular online newspapers, such as The Economist or New
Scientist, offer subscription plans for full access to premium features while non-
subscribers are limited to only a small number of articles. Similarly, most ebooks
and other types of online content, if legally distributed, are only available for
purchase.
In addition, there will always be people who prefer to buy printed newspapers and
books for many reasons. Reading free articles on a screen is oftentimes a test of
concentration due to the disturbance from constant pop-up advertisements or
message notifications. Furthermore, many people buy printed materials because
they value the experience of reading and collecting physical books. Some people
love the smell of paper and are paper and holding a book when reading it. Or
others seek to buy every paperback written by their favorite authors simply
because they enjoy building their physical collections.
In conclusion, I strongly disagree with the statement that people will no longer pay
for printed newspapers and books. Besides, it is flawed to claim that people can
read everything on the Internet for free.
MODEL 2
With the advent of world-wide-web and the internet, the trend of reading paper-
based scripture, either the newspaper or books, is fading away because more and
more people have started using digital books and online news web pages for free.
This trending culture would probably eliminate the usage of printed newspapers or
books in the future. I agree with this notion due to the following reasons.
First of all, the paper-based books and the newspaper on the breakfast table have
become old-fashioned. For now, most people prefer to read books and the news of
their interest on their laptops, computers, or smartphones. Our newer generation,
for instance, keeps them updated all the time through social media and prefers to
read everything on the internet over their smartphones while moving around.
Although it is not common in elderly people yet; however, it would not take long
to attract them as well.

Furthermore, with the advent of the internet, whole libraries are compressed into
small web pages where one can easily find and read the books for free. For
example, digital libraries offered by the universities, and other blogs containing
free digital books are getting popular these days. Additionally paper-based books
are already been replaced by e-readers which can store millions of books and still
can fit in the palm of our hand. Therefore, it might take just a few years more to
discard the printed materials from our lives.

To conclude, there is a possibility that the newspapers and printed books would be
wiped-out in the future because everything is available over the internet free of
cost. I certainly agree with this as the digital reading trend has been spreading
rapidly.
