How much studying do I need to do?
Many students like to ask the question "When can I get a score of 6.0?" or similar questions. It really is impossible for your teacher to say unless he knows you very well. People learn at different speeds, and the amount of homework they are prepared to do also varies from person to person. However, an approximate guide suggested by Cambridge ESOL is shown below. Someone requiring an overall score of 6.0, for example, should expect to study (with a teacher) for between 500 and 600 hours if starting with no knowledge of English.
Hours of studying IELTS score
⏰ 1000-1200 hours ✅ 7.5+
⏰ 700-800 hours ✅ 6.5–7.0
⏰ 500-600 hours ✅ 5.0–6.0
⏰ 350-400 hours ✅ 3.5–4.5
⏰ 180-200 hours ✅ 3.0
⏰ 90-120 hours ✅ 1.0–2.0

Obesity is now a major global epidemic. What can be done to tackle this increasingly common problem? #essay
Obesity is now one of the main causes of preventable death, especially in industrialised countries. To tackle this problem, governments can reduce the impact of their overweight citizens by the careful use of taxation to fund alternatives to a sedentary lifestyle. However, individuals should also take responsibility for their own health by avoiding a bad diet and taking the initiative to participate in sport.
It is important for governments to act quickly to curb obesity because of the rising death rate. There will also be rising costs in healthcare and the benefits system if it is left unchecked. To combat this problem, governments should, first of all, heavily tax junk food and use the revenue generated to subsidise healthy fruit and vegetables. This would make healthy food cheaper and more widely available than unhealthier options. Also, the government can act by funding leisure centres, sports clubs and gyms. This money could be used to help people gain motivation to exercise and become more active.
On the other hand, there are those who claim that obesity is due to lifestyle choice and therefore an individual problem, not one for the government. They claim that people should find their own motivation to prevent obesity by being aware of the potentially fatal consequences of their lifestyles. Individuals could also change their diets by switching from a carbohydrate-heavy diet to one which includes a balance of vitamins and minerals. Joining a sports club need not always be the only way to lose weight. Even vigorous housework or heavy gardening can help avert heart disease.
In conclusion, although individuals may be able to help themselves by changing their diets and activities, it may require government intervention to tackle obesity quickly and on a large scale.

Turkey will be known as Türkiye at the United Nations from now on, after it agreed to a formal request from Ankara.
State broadcaster TRT explains that among the reasons for the image rebrand was the association with the bird traditionally associated with Christmas, New Year or Thanksgiving; "Turkey" 🦃
It also pointed out the Cambridge English Dictionary's definition of one of the meanings of the word as "something that fails badly" or "a stupid or silly person".
