Enforcement schemes such as setting strict speed limits on major roads and the use of congestion charges in city centres are two such examples as are vehicle exclusion zones or parking restrictions in busy pedestrian areas. However, it also makes sense to encourage motorists to become less reliant on their car. This can be achieved by making public transport more efficient and promoting the benefits of car-sharing with work colleagues, thus reducing weekly fuel bills. And the increasing number of cycle lanes on many roads is further evidence of how to win the hearts and minds of motorists in the fight against congestion .The Joy of Motoring Recent research into the attitudes of motorists shows we are still more than happy to get behind the wheel.

Both texts address its evolution and the controversy of whether it is useful or harmful for our society. The first extract endorses the concept of electronically-enhanced vivid imagery to serve the purpose of attracting customers to a business.

(Suggested intro) The first text boasts the benefits of drinking tea and no wonder this beverage is consumed worldwide.  Be it a cultural tradition or just a pleasure to be enjoyed surrounded by relatives, tea is deemed to be a good beverage to act as a stimulant or to reduce drowsiness.  First and foremost because it is completely devoid of caffeine, and   (careful: this is actually not true.

Submitted by Sandra Lopez Essay on new facilities for a seaside town The aim of this essay is to discuss two proposals on new facilities for a seaside town, and to recommend which of them is most likely to bring benefits.  The first proposal is the construction of a family hotel. This appears to be a brilliant idea as the fantastic weather of the town is definitely its main attraction. I personally have no doubt that many tourists would enjoy spending their holidays on the town's sandy beaches. In addition, the hotel will also boost the economy by providing work opportunities for young people. The second proposal is to implement a park and a volleyball court. This also seems a very attractive idea since a survey carried out last month shows that people in the town are interested in getting fit and doing exercise. There is, however, a drawback to this project. The construction of the park would be equally expensive as the hotel, with the difference that it would provide no job oppor

Dear CPESamplewritings, could you please correct my "Letter to the Editor" sample for the CPE exam?  I unfortunately do not have the task in hand. Best Regards Maria L Letter to the Editor Sample  Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing in response to the article in last Sunday's edition of your magazine regarding readers' recent experiences of making an important decision. Thus, I would like to comment on this subject by talking about a significant decision I had to make not long ago when I had to decide about between staying in my hometown or moving to a different place to start a new life altogether. First of all I believe that it is worth noting that, sometimes in life, we are confronted with difficult decisions. Whether these involve love, work, personal relationships or relocation, a tough call is implied. I recently found myself in one of this unconfortable   uncomfortable positions when I had to choose between continuing with my life as it had been for a long time (wor

Submitted by Andrea Zubia Palazuelos   A travel magazine has asked readers to send in articles on their favourite public building, a town hall or a museum, for example. You decide to write an article in which you describe your favourite public building, explain why it is your favourite building and assess its significance for the wider community. Write your article. Use 240-280 words. The Festivals Palace Are you a person who when hearing “public building” imagines a place dominated by routinary and boring tasks? If the answer is yes, you certainly have not had the pleasure of visiting the Festivals Palace. Even though time has affected its white and green structure, the Festivals Palace still keeps its majesty, dominating the view of the bay of Santander.  Controversy has surrounded its external form. The general opinion has baptized it as “the puppy”, due to its position resembling a dog lying on its back. But as much as this label might diminish the importance of this building to th

Submitted by Antonio Gómez Flores Essay on food When talking about food almost everybody has in mind the fact of “eating” as a necessity for all human beings. Nevertheless, food has other benefits that we cannot ignore, such as providing a time and space for people to interact with each other. The extracts above revolve around the importance of food not only as something vital for life, but as an incomparable pleasure which we sometimes neglect in our hectic society. It has been shown scientifically that food is synonym with happiness . What really differentiate us from animals is not simply eating, but the way we do it. Who has not had great family moments during a dinner conversation? Or who has not enjoyed watching football with friends while having a delicious pizza? It is surely beyond all dispute that food is a unique pleasure that triggers positive emotions within us: love, excitement, security, and last but not least, happiness. What is more, in many cultures food is a symbol
