Task 1: The first chart below shows the percentages of women and men in a country involved in some kinds of home tasks (cooking, cleaning, pet caring and repairing the house. The second chart shows the amount of time each gender spent on each task per day.

The bar graphs compare the proportion for males and females of an unspecified nation who participate in and how much time they spend daily doing four household duties. Overall, the percentage of both genders doing housework corresponds with the average minutes for these tasks, with cooking being the most dominant figures in each chart. Additionally, a higher share of men are involved in house repairs and pet care, whereas the opposite is true for cleaning and cooking.

Regarding the involvement of each sex in housework, over 80% of women cook, moderately higher than men at 60%. Similarly, the proportion of females cleaning the house, at about 62%, is 12% higher than that of males. In contrast, while approximately 23% of men spend time for pet care and just under 18% of them do house maintenance, the corresponding figures for women are 20% and nearly 10%, respectively. 

Turning to the time allocated on each task, women perform over 80 minutes for cooking and about 70 minutes for cleaning, compared to men with 60 and roughly 45 minutes for these chores, correspondingly. While both genders share an identical amount of time for their pets at 20 minutes, men outnumber in terms of house maintenance with roughly 19 to only approximately 5 minutes.

Question: Some people think that governments should ban dangerous sports, while others think people should have freedom to do any sports or activity. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

ANSWER:

There are those who hold the belief that the authorities should impose prohibitions on these sports, while others are against this opinion. I believe that the freedom to participate in any sports activities is a matter of choice and should not be interfered with.

The proponents of this trend may argue that people who take part in adventure sports are more likely to be exposed to injuries or fatalities. This is because these activities are often associated with extreme conditions such as weather or complex terrain. For example, mountain climbers tend to scale in remote geographic locations where medical assistance may not be readily available in case of emergency. Therefore, due to all the risk elements pertaining to action sports, outlawing this practice is a feasible measure to mitigate the life-threatening issue to members of the society.

Nonetheless, I would argue that prohibiting people from practicing these sports is illogically unrealistic and may even violate the unalienable right of human beings. Realistically, many popular sports carry a certain degree of risk even in the presence of protective gear such as muscle strain or concussions in American football. However, the government will unlikely ban them because of their profitability and popularity. Moreover, a regulation to ban extreme sports can lead to much controversy in public in terms of human rights. Hence, an individual’s freewill toward playing dangerous sports activities should be upheld rather than being forbidden.

In conclusion, people may support banning dangerous sports due to the high vulnerability to accidents of the participants; nevertheless, I contend that this policy is unfair, and sportspeople should have full autonomy to play any ones and activities as they wish.  (276 words)
