Integrated Pest Management (IPM)

There is no one way to deal pests in agricultural. Pesticides are commonly used, but this
may cause many problems.

First, the chemicals in pesticides may build up residues in the environment. This reduce
the quality of farm’s products. As well, pests can gradually become resistant to pesticides. This
means that newer and stronger ones have to be developed. Some pesticides also affect non target
animals such as fish and bees. This affect natural balance.

To wipe out agricultural pests completely may be very expensive. Sometimes pest damage
costs less than method of control.

Finally, understanding the ecology of the area will help a lot in a pest control. Natural
enemies can be used to control pests. In other words, it can be said that an integrated pest
management (i.e. an ecological approach that can significantly reduce or eliminate the use of

This text for question no 1-2
In my opinion teachers should not smoke at school. There are several reasons why I strongly

disagree if teachers do smoking at school.
Firstly, no smoking regulation applied to students will not be effective at all when teachers

as a model do not give a bad example for their students, especially in behavior.
Secondly, smoking makes classroom and school environment dirty. Most teachers who smoke
carelessly usually throw away the cigarette ashes and ends everywhere. They scatter on the
table on the floor and the school yard.

Thirdly, passive smokers become the victim of active smokers. Smoke coming out from
cigarettes can dangerously affect the people around. Teachers should bear in mind that their
students inhale poisonous smoke while enjoy the taste of their cigarettes.

Lastly, smoking makes nasty smell. For smokers, cigarettes they love have nice smell. In fact
cigarette ends make bad smell. Fellow teachers always complain the smell of the cigarette ends
left by their colleagues who smoke. In classroom students have to fan cigarette smoke to get rid
of the annoying smell.

Considering the moral, healthy and environment reasons, I believe that teachers must not
always smoke at school.
