Writing Test A
- A lot of our entertainment throws into detail the stagnation and illness of how we live today – it’s sad and it’s sick… and it’s profitable.
– Heather Donahue - Anyone who tries to make a distinction between education and entertainment doesn’t know the first thing about either.
– Marshall McLuhan - Before machines the only form of entertainment people really had was relationships.
– Doug Coupland - Exactly when people are in turmoil is the time that the entertainment business has always been at its best.
– Lionel Richie - Entertainment today constantly emphasises the message that things are wonderful the way they are. But there is another kind of cinema, which says that change is possible and necessary and it’s up to you.
– Wim Wenders
Writing Test B
- Our thoughts are unseen hands shaping the people we meet. Whatever we truly think them to be, that’s what they’ll become for us.
– Richard Cowper - Our prejudices are like physical infirmities – we cannot do what they prevent us from doing.
– John Lancaster Spalding - Small is the number of people who see with their eyes and think with their minds.
– Albert Einstein - If you judge people you have no time to love them.
– Mother Teresa - Everyone is a prisoner of his own experiences. No one can eliminate prejudices – just recognise them.
– Edward Roscoe Murrow
