Dear Italki tutors, Would be grateful if u could check my IELTS response to this task: Some people believe that governments should have access to people’s mobile phone call records and messages for safety reasons. Others believe that this information is private and should not be available without permission. Discuss both these views and give your opinion. There are those who feel that governments controlling people’s phones can bring a number of benefits in terms of national security. Others, however, reckon that personal privacy should be respected, and I agree with that. On the one hand, some people think that accessing people’s phones enables governments to detect citizens posing a threat to society. Such measures might seem extreme at first glance. However, in such circumstances as war, they might be deemed protective. To illustrate that, since there is martial law in Ukraine, the majority of calls are eavesdropped on, and messages are monitored to identify people uncovering confidential information regarding military targets. As a result, the number of potential traitors has been dramatically reduced, minimizing the risks to other members of society. On the one hand, some people argue that privacy should be of paramount importance, and I agree. So why do I feel this way? If people’s rights are violated, they would be constantly living in fear and uncertainty. Consequently, they would not express their beliefs freely and would be more inclined towards migrating abroad so as not to be spied on. For instance, in recent years, a number of Chinese have been leaving the country for Western democracies because they could not bear the brunt of constant government control, resulting in them feeling more distressed. In conclusion, while opinions may differ, I feel that government policies aimed at tracking their citizens’ phones would result in people being anxious, and if we want them to stay in the country it is crucial to respect their inalienable right to privac

I came across an article about "Fog collector" on the internet and would like to share it here. UNICEF says there are currently over 2 billion, who are suffering from getting water, across the world. On top of that, the number is expected to get worse in the coming decades due to climate change. Various factors such as drought has made wafer resources be in crisis lately. One of countermeasures against the issue is an equipment called "Fog collector". The equipment can collect moisture and create drinking water. The tool is also called "Mist Catcher" or "Fog harvesting". They spread net made in chemical fibers toward the direction fog comes to collect it. A pipe for water collection is put under the net and wafer is collected into tanks through the pipe. There are some areas where sea fog occurs easily in a coast even though it is a dry land. The tool might come in handy against those places. BBC states that a large number of areas such as ancient the Inca Empire, Africa and South Asia has applied the method, which extracts wafer from air, since time immemorial. It is said this kinds of systems have already been commercialized. So, I really hope the equipment is affordable and is easy for everyone to get.
