WRITING TASK 2

(Time taken: approx. 15 minutes)

Существует множество споров на тему                                                       Некоторые люди верят

There has been a lot of debates on the topic of product testing on lab animals. Some people believe that scientists, by locking up animals

                                                                     что задумано природой                 возможно                                                        оказывают

in laboratory environment, act contrary to what nature intended – and they are probably right.  Others believe laboratory animals perform

огромную услугу человечеству

a great service for humankind.

For many years now, scientists have been working hard to develop cures for diseases. Occasionally, new medicines are discovered which

stop or prevent serious illnesses plaguing the mankind. In order to determine if there is any level of danger in these drugs, lab animals

ingest them and then being monitored for any unusual reactions. Therefore, lab animals play a vital role in the prevention of human death caused by a possible reaction to these new drugs.

The phrase ‘to be a guinea pig’ always carries a negative connotation and reminds us that an animal locked up in a cage, being fed

          потенциально опасными веществами               завидной доли                                            ужасные болезни

various potentially dangerous substances is far from an enviable position! Many of them die from hideous diseases. That is why for the

last decades more and more organizations have emerged, protesting against and struggling for the animals’ rights. The motto of such

                                                                                             аморальное и научно не оправданное         До сих пор

protests is clear: experimenting on animals is something neither morally nor scientifically justifiable. Hitherto, many household products

                                                 скармливают                                желудки  втирают                      впрыскивают          

and cosmetics companies still pump their products into animals' stomachs, rub them onto their skin, squirt them into their eyes, or force

animals to inhale them as aerosol sprays. However, animals differ from humans significantly, making animal drug tests unreliable and

dangerous. Therefore, each opposing side:  scientists and animals’ defenders have their own truth and it is hard to distinguish if one side

    абсолютное зло  

is a pure evil.

Тем не менее                                                                                                                                                                                 Недавно     

Nevertheless, the technical progress might bring the opportunity to carry the necessary tests without any “guinea pigs” at all. Recently
