Task 9. Here are some other sentences relating to analyses. Translate them into Russian using explanations in brackets.

C. Analyzing results

 

Academic texts often include sections which deal with the analysis of data. In analyzing a controversial issue, the writer may need to come to / reach a conclusion about the advantages and disadvantages of a particular course of action. The writer may, for instance, conclude that the benefits outweigh the drawbacks or vice versa. An analysis may be a matter of weighing up both sides of an argument, taking into account all the relevant aspects of the issue and discussing all the points raised by the research. When analyzing the results of a scientific experiment, the writer is likely to need to take into consideration a range of variables. In their analysis scientists try to deduce as much as they can from their data, drawing conclusions that are soundly based on their results.

Writing 3

 

 

Task 13. No human has landed on Mars to this day. Why should Mars One succeed? Is it best to send unmanned space probes or a manned mission to find out about Mars? Write an essay concerning this topic.

 

Use the plan:

Paragraph 1: introduce the question and express your point of view (see Grammar 3 section A for useful phrases)

Paragraph 2: mention that the problem is controversial and present a few ideas that you do not support/disadvantages (see Grammar 3 section B for useful phrases)

Paragraph 3 (+/- 4): present ideas that you support/advantages, provide a few examples if possible (see Grammar 3 section B for useful phrases)

Paragraph 5: analyze the results and write a conclusion (see Grammar 3 section C for useful phrases)

 

Look through some ideas to help you build your own opinion. Do not plagiarize them!

For a manned mission Against
· humans would easily be able to outperform robotic explorers in precision and accuracy · humans are intelligent creatures – less time to analyze data · unmanned mission must be planned and programmed thoroughly a long time ahead – no possible changes on the way · unmanned missions do not inspire people · people want to gain popularity and fame · cost less money · a manned mission could contaminate Mars by introducing earthly microbes · we have a lot of information about Mars without human travelling there · harmful conditions would kill humans · limitation of food, water and other supplies · low gravity of Mars would affect humans’ organism · instant cosmic rays and radiation · instabilities of psychological state of isolated humans
