👁🗨What is Dark Energy and Dark Matter?
More is unknown than is known. We know how much dark energy there is because we know how it affects the universe's expansion. Other than that, it is a complete mystery. But it is an important mystery. It turns out that roughly 68% of the universe is dark energy. One explanation for dark energy is that it is a property of space. Albert Einstein was the first person to realize that empty space is not nothing. The first property that Einstein discovered is that it is possible for more space to come into existence. As a result, this form of energy would cause the universe to expand faster and faster. Unfortunately, no one understands why the cosmological constant should even be there.
We are much more certain what dark matter is not than we are what it is. First, it is dark, meaning that it is not in the form of stars and planets that we see. Observations show that there is far too little visible matter in the universe to make up the 27% required by the observations. Second, it is not in the form of dark clouds of normal matter, matter made up of particles called baryons. We know this because we would be able to detect baryonic clouds by their absorption of radiation passing through them. Third, dark matter is not antimatter, because we do not see the unique gamma rays that are produced when antimatter annihilates with matter. Finally, we can rule out large galaxy-sized black holes on the basis of how many gravitational lenses we see.

☕️What are the effects of Caffeine on Human body?
Many of us rely on a morning cup of coffee or a jolt of caffeine in the afternoon to help us get through the day. But caffeine does so much more than just keeping you awake. It’s a central nervous system stimulant that affects your body in numerous ways. Caffeine provides no nutritional value on its own. It’s tasteless, so you won’t necessarily know if it’s in your food either. Even some medications may contain caffeine without your knowledge.
At a minimum, you may feel more energetic, but over time, too much caffeine may cause withdrawal symptoms. Caffeine acts as a central nervous system stimulant. When it reaches your brain, the most noticeable effect is alertness. Studies have also found that people who drink coffee regularly have a lower risk of developing Alzheimer’s and dementia, and cut suicide risk by 45 percent. These benefits are limited to people who drink high-octane coffee, not decaf. Extra caffeine doesn’t get stored in your body either. It’s processed in the liver and exits through your urine. Caffeine can make your blood pressure go up for a short time. If you consume too much, caffeine may cause also your muscles to twitch.
An overdose of caffeine may cause rapid or irregular heartbeat and breathing trouble. In rare cases, caffeine overdose can result in death due to convulsions or irregular heartbeat.

#Writing101
Our personalities are predetermined as a result of our genes before we are born and there is nothing we can do to alter our character traits. To what extent do you agree?
Human personality is sometimes believed to be nothing more than a set of genes, thus, there is little if any room for changing people’s characters. Despite some features being indisputably inborn, I strongly believe in human abilities to adapt to their personal needs as well as social requirements, which is part and parcel of living in a human society.
Though some fundamental characteristics are known to be genetically programmed, many qualities are developed in accordance with personal needs. This is because our temperament, being innate, only shapes the foundation to a variety of personal quality sets that a person develops to address the demands of life. On no account should the power latent in personal determination to changes be ignored. Particularly, an introvert can significantly improve their public speaking skills, unleashing their potential as a lecturer or a coach.
A human is a social creature, hence, it is the person’s environment and not genetic predisposition that forms the lion's’ share of their personal qualities. Responding to expectations of society, people tend to enhance their inborn traits that are commonly approved and appreciated. As a result, personal qualities are constantly undergoing a process of calibrating to address human social needs which eliminates the role of genetic predisposition.
In conclusion, I am highly convinced that even though some basic human features are genetically determined, people are adaptive to social and personal challenges encountered which is the driving force of personal development.

The two maps show the town of Langley in the years 1910 and 1950 and the urban developments that took place. It is clear that there were a number of notable changes to the buildings and amenities of this area.
Overall, the area was renovated extensively, seeing fundamental changes to its residential accommodation, and its commercial and recreational facilities were developed.
In 1910, the area had a combination of residential and industrial features, but by 1950 the industrial features had largely disappeared. Whereas in 1910 a railway line ran through the neighbourhood, by 1950 this had been removed. Furthermore, the townhouses which used to dominate the 1910 map had been replaced by blocks of flats by 1950, and the areas of wasteland had gone.
Another major change to the area in 1950 was the development of more commercial and recreational features. The demolition of a second row of houses on Sherman Street and the removal of the railway line made room for a spacious park and children's play area. On the commercial side, to the right of the park some new stores were built on the aptly named New Lane, replacing the small store of 1910, and the cafe and laundry were relocated.

What is CONNOTATION?
Connotation is simply an emotion, therefore it can positive, negative or neutral.
For example, what feelings come to mind when you hear the words plagiarize or copy?
Plagiarize has negative connotations, while copy is a more neutral selection.
Why is this important?
Without knowing implied meaning writing can annoy a reader or make your message unclear.

Writing Task 2 in Uzbekistan — on 22 February
Online shopping is replacing shopping in stores. Do you think it is a positive or negative development?
Currently, people are increasingly doing their shopping on the Internet instead of going to stores. I personally believe this tendency has both positive and negative effects, which will be discussed below.
On the one hand, there are some benefits of online shopping. Firstly, it is a quicker and cheaper way to shop since people can buy products at home without having to go to stores or shopping malls. For example, Amazon and AliExpress are two popular websites that provide a huge number of different products, and customers can visit those sites and make purchases easily. As a result, consumers can save time and the costs of travelling. Secondly, online shopping allows people to have a wider range of choices as they can compare different brands and products. For instance, buyers can easily compare the shoes of Adidas and Nike, while it is difficult to do that at physical stores.
On the other hand, online shopping can be negative in several ways. The first drawback is that customers cannot try products before making a purchase. For example, a girl cannot try wearing a dress to see if it fits her body. Furthermore, products sold online are often less reliable, and the product that people finally get delivered to their house might have a poorer quality than expected. Finally, because online shopping is easier and cheaper, people tend to buy too much, which would lead to a large waste of money. This is less likely to happen if shopping in stores is more popular.
In conclusion, I believe the fact that shopping on the Internet is replacing shopping in physical stores is both positive and negative.

The diagram demonstrates the process of electricity production via geothermal energy.
Generally, the process diagram details the key stages of how a geothermal power plant functions from the time water is introduced to the system to the time electricity is produced.
In the initial stages, cold water stored above ground in what appears to be a tank separate from the main power plant is sent into a four and a half kilometre-long injection well located below ground where it passes though what is labelled as the “geothermal zone” that consists of hot rocks. Following these sections, in what we can term the middle section of the process, the now hot water is channeled up the production well into a condenser located above the ground and part of the main complex.
In the closing stages of the process, the water is then converted to steam and passed through a pipe into another building containing a turbine which is rotated by the now vaporized water. In turn, the turbine powers a generator (also housed in the same building) that produces electricity to be sent along power lines.

🗣IELTS Speaking Part 2 in Uzbekistan🇺🇿 ( 19.02.2021 )
Describe a country where you would like to work for a short time.
You should say:
-Where you would like to work?
-What kind of job would it be?
-When would you like to go?
-Why you want to work there?
I am planning to go abroad for my higher studies. My dream country for my further studies is Canada. I would like to work there for the time that I am there. I have heard that students can work part time while studying over there. My friend went to Humber College Canada for his Business Management course. He told me a lot about the education system there. He is working part time in a pizza outlet. He gets 10 Canadian dollars an hour. He can work 20 hours per week but he can be flexible with the number of hours he can work per day. So he works 5 hours on Saturday and 5 on Sunday and two hours per day on weekdays. In this way his study is not disturbed. He is managing his overhead expenses very nicely. I intend to join him soon. He has promised to help me find a job there. I would like to work in the library. Part time jobs in the library get filled up very fast. If I don’t get a job in the library, I would like to work in a restaurant or a fast food outlet. I think it would be a very good way to learn about the culture and to meet new people and make new friends. Canada is a beautiful country. My friend is in Toronto and he has told me that he has visited many places there. He told me about the CN Tower and the Niagara Falls. So, I would definitely like to work in Canada for a short time.
This is a decent response, remember to stick to the time limit and use plenty of collocations(related to target topic), obviously try to stick to nature of speech otherwise it would seem odd for the examiner.

📝Some think that only those people who have worked for a company for many years should be promoted to a higher position. Do you agree?
Promotion based on seniority is often believed to be the only way to progress through the ranks within a company. However, I disagree that tenure is the sole solid reason to promote a person in today’s changeable world where professional achievements are a more objective criterion of one’s worthiness.
Topic sentence👉Seniority-based promotion is considered to take advantage of one’s time-proven experience. Having worked for many years in a specific field, one can gain unique knowledge which may be essential for a company to prosper. As such, an experienced employee can be a company’s valuable asset which deserves recognition. However, in today’s changeable working conditions, skills and knowledge gained while working for a long period of time in the same position may be outdated, and therefore, of little if any value. IT is just one example of such a rapidly evolving industry driven by innovations, where skills become obsolete practically every day, making seniority-based promotion largely irrelevant.
Topic sentence👉Even though seniority-based promotion honors one’s experience, it is the merit-based system that has the potential to create a more competitive and conducive working environment. This system is designed to provide workers with opportunities to climb the career ladder by producing high quality work, proving their that they are worthy. In such a way, all applicants are considered in an objective manner based on their achievements, be it one’s annual sales figures in the retail industry or a number of successful surgeries in medical settings.As a natural result, workers are stimulates to exert their full effort to deserve promotion,which is, in turn, the driving force behind a company's success.
In conclusion, even though many years spent acquiring experience should be recognized, professional accomplishments are a more objective, thus, compelling reason for promotion. I therefore disagree with view that only those who have worked for a company for many years should be promoted.

📝Basic essay structure
Part 1 out 3 Introduction
The introduction to your essay is an important paragraph. It is the first thing the reader sees. A good introduction
should:
1️⃣ Orientate the reader to the general topic
2️⃣ Identify the focus or purpose of the essay
3️⃣ Outline the scope, that is, the points to be covered, noting any limitations and
4️⃣ Finish by identifying the thesis.
An introduction is usually one paragraph, although this is not always the case, particularly with long essays.
Some students define key terms in the introduction. Others signal within the ‘scope’ that key terms will be defined in the essay.

📝Nowadays parents put too much pressure on their children to succeed. What is the reason for doing this?Is this a negative or positive development?
These days, many parents push their children to perform their best which is commonly approved in today’s competitive environment. However, obsession with performance may have the opposite result, discouraging the young generation from being self-reliant.
Today’s teens are embedded in a culture driven by competition and perfectionism, where performance defines one’s success. One cannot escape the modern vanity - fair social media with its photoshopped reality, where benchmarks are set unrealistically high across the globe. Such platforms promote those who are on the fast track, rewarding photos with another award or diploma with likes and shares. Parents transmit such values to their offspring, be it verbally or nonverbally, by encouraging with words to achieve better grades or showing that they admire such achievements. As a result, children are pushed to compete with the whole world which is an unbearable pressure@Eugene_ielts for many, while only a few decades ago they used to be compared only to their peers in the neighborhood.
Parents’ hypervigilance about their children’s performance and success may often backfire, as young people are less likely to develop their own motivation, resilience and as a consequence the ability to sustain an independent life. Having succumbed to constant pressure, compliant children often lose their inner drive to excel together with the ability to think independently. This is because in a world when children are constantly told which lessons to learn and which hobbies to like, there are being unable to For more 🦆 @Eugene_ieltsOfficialmake own choices. As a natural result, they are likely to grow into infantile young adults seeking escape from stress, exhibiting self-destructive behaviour as reported in the statistics for incidents of drug abuse.
In conclusion, being obsessed with external evidence of their children's worth to benchmark them against the top in today's @Eugene_ielts competitive society, parents are likely to oppress the young, depriving them of opportunities to grow into a strong and self-reliant people. Therefore,I believe that this is wholeheartedly a negative development.
