IELTS Cambridge 19 Test 1
Task 1
The line graph below gives information on the numbers of participants for different activities at one social centre in Melbourne, Australia for the period 2000 to 2020.
Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.
Some people think that competition at work, at school and in daily life is a good thing. Others believe that we should try to cooperate more, rather than competing against each other.
Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
If you are interested in some study strategies for using the book, you can read the guides below – all the tips and strategies apply for IELTS Cambridge 19 as well:
Some people think that competition at work, at school and in daily life is a good thing. Others believe that we should try to cooperate more, rather than competing against each other.
Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
Many argue that competing in a variety of daily environments is a positive, while others feel a focus on cooperation would be ideal. In my opinion, although competition can yield transformational results, it is more valuable to embrace cooperation as a guiding principle.
Those who argue in favor of competition contend that it serves as powerful motivation. Examples of the impact of competition exend to many segments of life, including school and work. In schools, the desire to compete can lead a student to study harder than their classmates in order to achieve better grades and secure esteem from teachers and family members. At work, competition for promotions and higher compensation packages is the entire reason that individuals work diligently in the majority of company contexts. However, at home, competition rarely has positive ramifications. Family members that are consistently competing for admiration and recoginition are likely to suffer from some degree of poor mental health.
Indeed, there is greater value in fostering a cooperative environment. When individuals work together in teams, whether it be at school, work, or in the home, they are more likely to experience high levels of motivation, and more crucially, enjoyment. Competition can serve as a catalyst for achievement but is unlikely to engender the same heights of unifying satisfaction. A standout example of this would be the dynamics present on a sports team at any level of competition. Even though the players on the team are engaged in a competition, the most memorable and lasting memories of their experiences are more likely to come from small moments of comradery shared with teammates. This is the reason that many cite times spent working in groups towards a common goal as the highlights of life.
In conclusion, although competition can encourage innovation, cooperation provides a more vital environment of mutual respect and enjoyment of life. Depending on the situation, it is therefore imperative to seek cooperative understanding.

The line chart details the percentage of workers in Australia according to 5 different industries from 1962 to 2012. Looking from an overall perspective, it is readily apparent that the most noticeable growth and the vast majority of jobs was concentrated in the services industry. There was decline in the workforce for jobs in agriculture and manufacturing, and slight rises for the remaining two industries.
In 1962, approximately 52% of Australians worked in services, a figure far above the next closest sector, manufacturing (27%). From that point onwards, service jobs grew rapidly to reach 72% by 1992 and then growth tapered off and rose more moderately to finish the period at just under 80%. In contrast, manufacturing as an employment option was stable over the first decade before a consistent decline led to a final figure of 10% in 2012.
In terms of the less common jobs, agricultural workers declined at steady intervals from just above 10% in 1962 to a low of 4% in 2012. In comparison, mining and construction jobs were generally stable with minor growth, rising from 9% and 1% to 10% and 2%, respectively.

In many cities, planners tend to arrange shops, schools, offices and homes in specific areas and separate them from each other.
Do you think the advantages of this policy outweigh the disadvantages?
One common approach employed by city planners involves the separation of various establishments such as shops, schools, offices, and homes into distinct areas. While this zoning policy offers certain advantages, the notable drawbacks outweigh the positives.
One significant advantage of zoning is the promotion of efficient land use. By grouping similar establishments together, cities can optimize the allocation of resources and infrastructure. For instance, commercial areas can be designed with adequate parking spaces and easy access to transportation, making it convenient for both shoppers and business owners. Zoning similarly allows for the creation of specialized zones, such as industrial areas, which can enhance productivity and economic growth. This is the case in many newer cities such as Shenzhen in China where urban planners had the opportunity to fashion a more efficient and livable environment for residents due to the lack of previous development in the area.
However, a notable concern is the potential lack of vibrancy and diversity in strictly zoned cities. When different establishments are mixed within neighborhoods, it fosters a sense of community and generates vibrant social spaces. Mixing residential and commercial areas can lead to the development of lively streets with a variety of shops, cafes, galleries, and parks, creating a more engaging and inclusive urban experience. This is evidenced in contrast to newer cities like Shenzhen with older cities throughout the world that are famed for their cultural vibrancy. The list of such cities is innumerable but includes some of the most well-known and desirable urban areas on the globe such as London, New York, Paris, Kyoto, and Barcelona.
In conclusion, zoning policies that group areas by their purpose can lead to efficient land use though the likelihood of a lack of vibrancy within neighborhoods is a more significant factor. To strike a balance, city planners must carefully consider the specific context and needs of their communities, adopting a flexible approach that combines the benefits of zoning with the promotion of mixed-use areas.

The diagram details how recycled paper is made. Looking from an overall perspective, it is readily apparent that the process involves three main stages beginning with initial collection and transportation, followed by cleaning and processing, and lastly the rolling of the final product. The process is entirely man-made.
In order to produce recycled paper, used paper is first sourced and transported by conveyer belt to a processing plant. The used paper is then made into unfiltered pulp by using water and various chemicals. The pulp must then be filtered with water being removed.
After filtering is complete, the filtered paper pulp is sent by a tube to a container with water and soap to be further cleaned. Air is pumped into the container and ink is removed. There is then additional cleaning with water and chemicals before the final rolling stages commence. To create useable recycled paper rolls, the cleaned and filtered pulp is placed on a conveyor belt where heated rollers flatten the paper and remove excess water.
