🟡 Bài mẫu IELTS Online Shopping

Đề bài: Online shopping is increasing dramatically. How could this trend affect our environment and the kinds of jobs required? [Đề thi thật ngày 22/2/2020]

Bài mẫu: Bạn tham khảo phần phân tích bài mẫu tại đây nhé.

Online shopping has become more popular than ever before in recent years. This trend may have positive impacts on the environment and employment patterns in the short run, but it may do more harm than good in the long run.

In terms of the environment, the popularity of online shopping can help reduce the number of car journeys to physical stores and the amount of associated greenhouse emissions. A delivery truck, for example, is able to carry large amounts of goods, which, if carried by private cars, would require hundreds of trips, emitting huge amounts of carbon emissions into the atmosphere. In the long term, however, the convenience of shopping on the Internet might encourage people to buy more, and this will increase the number of delivery vehicles on the road, releasing more exhaust fumes and heat-trapping gases. In addition, if people consume more, there will be more waste ending up in landfills, which are one of the largest sources of global greenhouse gas emissions.

Regarding the effects on the types of jobs in the labour market, the growing popularity of online shopping has created various new employment opportunities, such as online grocery personal shoppers, delivery drivers and web designers. Looking into the future, however, the growth of this kind of shopping might lead to the bankruptcy of many traditional retailers, forcing thousands of people to face unemployment. The number of jobless people might outnumber the number of job openings created by the rapid development of online shopping, resulting in a higher level of unemployment.

In conclusion, the growth of online shopping might be beneficial for the environment and the labour market in the short run; however, in the long term, the benefits might be overshadowed by the negative consequences.

【減肥福音？】號稱一星期減8公斤的減肥餐單

⭐極端減肥法不是人人適合
⭐不過當中多吃蔬菜多喝水值得參考
#星期一踢走BlueMonday

奇蹟食譜減肥法
小心減磅不成易傷身
網上瘋傳GM Diet減肥方法（美國通用汽車公司General Motors為員工研發的減肥餐單），號稱不用做運動，單靠調節飲食，一星期已可達到減磅效果，所以稱為「奇蹟食譜」，究竟神奇之處在哪裡？又是否人人適合？讓我們從中醫角度來拆解！

GM Diet食譜
第1日：只吃水果，例如蘋果、橙、西瓜、奇異果，但不包括香蕉，配合8至12杯清水。
第2日：只吃蔬菜，例如沙律、青瓜、椰菜花、薯仔、番薯等，配合8至12杯清水。
第3日：只吃水果及蔬菜，但不能吃薯仔，配合8至12杯清水。
第4日：只吃香蕉和牛奶，一天可吃8至10條香蕉和4杯牛奶，配合8至12杯清水。
第5日：食用指定份量的雞/牛/魚肉及6個番茄，配合12至15杯清水。
第6日：食用指定份量的雞/牛/魚肉及蔬菜，配合8至12杯清水。
第7日：只吃糙米及蔬菜，飲用果汁幫助身體排毒。
每天飲用奇蹟湯：由椰菜、紅蘿蔔、洋蔥、番茄、青椒、檸檬、橄欖油及水等煲成。

可以看到GM Diet以蔬菜及水果作為主要食物，短期內攝取大量纖維及水份，有助促進腸胃蠕動，增加排便，而所謂「奇蹟湯」近似手術前清腸胃湯，在手術一星期前開始飲用，以作清腸胃之用。由於湯只用蔬菜煲成，如果屬於濕熱體質，適量飲用有助紓緩濕熱情況；但如果氣血虛弱或陽虛體質人士，多喝此湯會進一步耗傷氣血，出現頭暈、疲倦乏力、心悸、怕冷等症狀。此減肥食譜並不適合每天使用，並要按體質應用， 適可而止。如有疑問，記得諮詢醫生、營養師或註冊中醫師意見。

Miraculous weight-loss diet?
May damage your body more so than serving a weight loss purpose

The GM Diet, which General Motors designed to help its employees lose weight, has been widely circulated on the Internet. The diet claims to be able to help individuals shed some pounds in just a week without the need to exercise. This is why certain people would regard the GM Diet as a ‘wonder diet’. Is it truly that miraculous? Is it suitable for everyone? Let us examine the diet from the Chinese Medicine perspective and crack the code!

The GM Diet
Day 1: Have any fruits you like (except bananas), such as apples, oranges, watermelon, kiwi. Drink 8 to 12 glasses of water.

Day 2: Eat until you are stuffed with all fresh, raw or cooked vegetables of your choice, such as salads, cucumber, cauliflower, and sweet potato. Drink 8 to 12 cups of water.

Day 3: Eat any fruits and vegetables (except potatoes). Drink 8 to 12 glasses of water.

Day 4: Bananas and skim milk only. Maximum 8 bananas and 4 glasses of skim milk, along with 8 to 12 cups of water.

Day 5: Specified amounts of chicken/beef/fish and up to 6 tomatoes. Drink 12 to 15 glasses of water.

Day 6: Specified amounts of chicken/beef/fish and vegetables. Drink 8 to 12 glasses of water.

Day 7: Brown rice, unsweetened fruit juices and vegetables. The fruit juice helps with detoxification.
Accompanied with daily miracle soup: Made with cabbage, carrot, onion, tomato, green bell pepper, lemon and olive oil.

The GM Diet relies on vegetables and fruits, which are high in fibers. Consuming a large amount of fibers and water within a short period can help promote the bowel movement. This so-called miracle soup is similar to the soup patients would drink a week before their surgery to clear their intestines and stomach.

Individuals with the heat-dampness body condition can benefit from the soup, as it is made from vegetables. However, it is not suitable for individuals with qi and blood or with the yang deficiency, as it would hurt qi and blood, and can cause dizziness, fatigue, palpitation, as well as aversion to cold.

This weight-loss plan is not suitable for daily consumption, should only be used when you have fully understood your body condition. Remember to consult doctors, nutritionists or licensed Chinese medicine practitioners if you have any doubts.

✔️CheckCheckCin Healing Tea: Chubby
Ingredients: Chinese Hawthorn, Lotus Leaf, Corn Silk
Effects: Promotes blood circulation and burns fat. Relieves rounded body, dark circles and dull complexion.
Note: This tea is sour in taste. Avoid this tea if you are suffering from acid reflux or stomach discomfort. Not recommended to drink on an empty stomach. Not suitable for pregnant or menstruating women.

Opinion｜The Police is duty-bound to enforce the law resolutely

HK Current

2020.10.06 11:05

By Athena Kung

According to the statement made by the US Department of State on 3rd of October 2020 (local time), the arrests made by the Hong Kong Police on 1st of October 2020 were criticized by the Department as malicious ones. It has been alleged by the US Department of State that the Hong Kong Police merely enforces the law for the aim of achieving political goals, which amounts to serious violation of Hong Kong's rule of law and thus strongly attack individual's human rights as well as Hong Kong people's freedom of expression, procession and assembly. The Central Government was commented by the US Department of State as being given up the undertaking of "One country, Two systems" completely. Obviously, such allegations against both the Central Government and HKSAR made by US Government were very serious. To examine whether such comments were fair ones, we have to carefully consider if the allegations really have any valid legal basis or foundation.

According to both the Hong Kong Bill of Rights Ordinance, Cap. 383, Laws of Hong Kong (hereinafter referred to as "the BORO“) and and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (hereinafter referred to as the "ICCPR "), the freedoms of expression, procession and assembly were not absolute, and might be subject to restrictions as prescribed by law. Article 16 and 17 of the BORO relates to the freedom of opinion and expression and right of peaceful assembly which can be enjoyed by Hong Kong people:
"Article 16
Freedom of opinion and expression
(1) Everyone shall have the right to hold opinions without interference.
(2) Everyone shall have the right to freedom of expression; this right shall include freedom to seek, receive and impart information and ideas of all kinds, regardless of frontiers, either orally, in writing or in print, in the form of art, or through any other media of his choice.
(3) The exercise of the rights provided for in paragraph (2) of this article carries with it special duties and responsibilities. It may therefore be subject to certain restrictions, but these shall only be such as are provided by law and are necessary—
(a) for respect of the rights or reputations of others; or
(b) for the protection of national security or of public order (ordre public), or of public health or morals.
[cf. ICCPR Art. 19]

Article 17
Right of peaceful assembly
The right of peaceful assembly shall be recognized. No restrictions may be placed on the exercise of this right other than those imposed in conformity with the law and which are necessary in a democratic society in the interests of national security or public safety, public order (ordre public), the protection of public health or morals or the protection of the rights and freedoms of others.
[cf. ICCPR Art. 21]"

Thus, freedom of expression, procession and assembly in Hong Kong are not absolute. On the other hand, such rights are subject to restrictions as prescribed by law in the interests of public order, public safety and the interests of others, and so on.

Besides, Section 10(a) to (e) of the Police Force Ordinance, Cap 232, Laws of Hong Kong has clearly stated inter alia that:
"10. The duties of the police force shall be to take lawful measures for—
(a) preserving the public peace;
(b) preventing and detecting crimes and offences;
(c) preventing injury to life and property;
(d) apprehending all persons whom it is lawful to apprehend and for whose apprehension sufficient grounds exists;
(e) regulating processions and assemblies in public places or places of public resort;
…………"

What has really occurred in Hong Kong in various districts on 1st of October 2020?
(1) At around 1400 hours, a group of people gathered and yelled along Great George Street in Causeway Bay, which might have constituted offences related to unauthorised assemblies under the Public Order Ordinance, Cap 245, Laws of Hong Kong and offences related to prohibited group gatherings under the Prevention and Control of Disease (Prohibition on Group Gathering) Regulation, Cap 599G, Laws of Hong Kong. Even though the Police had given multiple warnings at the scene and raised the blue flag requesting participants to leave the scene, at around 1500 hours, a large group of protesters still remained at the same place. Some of them even commenced to chant the slogan “Liberate Hong Kong, Revolution of Our Times” over and over again. Thus, they were suspected of inciting or abetting others to commit acts of secession, which might constitute relevant offences under the HKSAR National Security Law. Afterwards, some protesters even spilled onto the road and breached public peace.

(2) At around 1500 hours, 2 men in the vicinity of Tin Ma Court in Wong Tai Sin hurled some petrol bombs and large objects at Lung Cheung Road. Having attended the scene, the police noticed that traces of the road being charred, as well as fences and traffic cones left on it. After investigation, the Police found that even though a large amount of vehicles were travelling along the road at the time of the incident, fortunately, no vehicle was hit by the petrol bombs and objects successfully. In any event, the rioters’ such heinous acts had severely endangered road users and breached public peace.

(3) The Police intercepted a man at Stewart Road in Wanchai at about 1600 hours and found him in possession of a foldable sharp knife which was at the same size of a business card. The 23-year-old man was subsequently arrested on suspicion of possession of an offensive weapon, as there stood a strong likelihood that he might intend to use the said item to injure members of the public or police officers.

(4) At around 1500 hours, the Police set up a roadblock along a section of the Tuen Mun Road near Summit Terrace in Tsuen Wan to intercept suspicious vehicles, and found extendable sticks, a helmet, face masks and a large amount of promotional leaflets inside a private car with an expired vehicle licence. Some of the leaflets contained slogans suspected of calling for “Hong Kong independence” written on them. The 35-year-old male driver of the car was arrested on suspicion of various offences including “Possession of Instrument Fit for Unlawful Purpose”, “Driving an Unlicenced Vehicle” and “Driving Without Third Party Insurance”.
(5) At around 1630 hours, the Police stopped and searched a man in the vicinity of Tonnochy Road and Lockhart Road in Causeway Bay, and found items including a cutter, a spanner, plastic straps and a pair of gloves in his backpack. The 20-year-old man was subsequently arrested on suspicion of possession of offensive weapons.
(6) After nightfall, protesters continued to gather in different districts. To ensure public safety, the Police have enforced the law resolutely according to the situations arising in different districts. At 2200 hours, not less than 86 persons have been arrested in multiple districts. Among them, 74 persons including four District Councillors were arrested on suspicion of taking part in unauthorised assemblies in Causeway Bay, while the rest were arrested on suspicion of committing offences including possession of offensive weapon, failing to produce proof of identity, possession of forged identity card, disorderly conduct in a public place and driving an unlicenced vehicle. Besides, 20 persons were given fixed penalty notices for suspectedly breaching the Prevention and Control of Disease (Prohibition on Group Gathering) Regulation.

Actually, the Police is duty-bound to enforce the law resolutely. On the facts, all arrests taken place on 1st of October 2020 were absolutely lawful and necessary to maintain law and order in the society and protect the life and property of all Hong Kong residents. Undoubtedly, the US officials have all along been adopting "double standards" in expressing utterly irresponsible remarks on law enforcement actions in the HKSAR. Everyone is equal before the law. So long as there is evidence supporting that someone has violated the law, no matter what his or her status or background is, he or she must face the legal consequence. Being a law enforcement agency, the Police must take action whenever they come across any unlawful acts in strict accordance with the laws in force. All cases must be handled in a fair, just and impartial manner by the Police in accordance with the law, which is the only and real reason as to why the Police arrested the 86 odd people on 1st of October 2020. To conclude, all criticizms made by the US towards the Hong Kong Police, HKSAR Government and Central Government were all unfair without any legal or concrete support at all.

It appears that the US government has always been refusing to accept the truth that the HKSAR is an inalienable part of the People's Republic of China (hereinafter referred to as "the PRC") and a local administrative region which enjoys a high degree of autonomy, as contrary to absolute autonomy, and comes directly under the Central People's Government. Hong Kong affairs are internal matters of the PRC. The system in Hong Kong is not "Two countries, Two systems". Hong Kong will never be an independent country with a pro-American government formed by the Opposition Camp in Hong Kong. Any foreign governments like the US must at once stop scaremongering and interfering in any form in Hong Kong's affairs. The "Colour Revolution" promoted by the US in Hong Kong should be terminated in no time.

(yes guys, I woke up and did this tutorial without doing my hair... Mega bed head alert)

Hi everyone,

Here is another homemade mask recipe as promised. I am loving this facial scrub so much!!!! You guys have to try it. Who needs to spend large amounts of cash when all you need is to go downstairs into your own kitchen?

My 'Origins Modern Friction' exfoliater works great but my skin is far too sensitive for the ingredients. It stung my face when I washed it out. Until one morning, I was sipping my greentea when I suddenly had a thought and wondered if we can use greentea as an ingredient for our skin. We can!!! Greentea not only tastes wonderful but has promising benefits for our body and skin.

This homemade mask is inexpensive and great for getting rid of dead skin cells (which can pile up giving you a dull complexion). By using the scrub when it is slightly warm, it opens our pores allowing the nutrients of the mask to cleanse deep within. I get questions by people asking me how they can reduce appearance of scars. The answer is by exfoliating and removing the scar tissues. You can even use this scrub on your body. The amount I reccomended is for 2-4 applications. You can adjust the recipe to make it more 'thick' or 'thin' so it suits yourself. I would reccomend you to exfoliate at least once a week.

If you have a jar, store it in your fridge (use still bottled water instead though). You can buy green tea (teabags or loose tea leaves) in your supermarket. You are sure to be able to get some. If would be awesome if you have greentea powder.

Hope you guys enjoy this as much as I did,

Much love,

Bubbi
