Example answer:.
I think that my country has problems with pollution to the environment like all other countries. This problem is normal for Russia. We have big problems with transport because there are too much cars in our country. And because of that we have problems with atmospeer, air in my city and in all Russia is really dirty and sometimes I can’t make a sigh because it smells around me and of course around that cars on the road. I’ve heard about tradition of one country. They don’t go anywhere by car one day a month or a year, they just use bycicle or their feet. I think it could be very good if we had a tradition like that.
So, what about the rivers and the seas? Yeah, there are some really good and clean rivers and seas where you can go, but there are not many of them. Once I saw the river OB in my city, it was about two years ago but I stil remember that in some places it was not blue, it was green or purple I didn’t really understand because it had different colours.
I don’t know what should we do. Maybe we should just open our eyes and look what we did. But Russian people don’t care about the world around them many people care only about themselves an that’s all.
So, the best idea is look around and try to do something good for our planet and for us and our children.

3 | All content is relevant to the task but the target reader is on the whole informed rather than fully informed as, the central question as to whether or not the problems can be solved has not really been addressed. The candidate discusses the environmental impact of transport and the cleanliness of rivers, and provides one suggested solution for the problem of transport (They don’t go anywhere by car one day a month). The writer’s opinion is clear in I think it could be very good if we had a tradition like that. No solutions are discussed for rivers and seas, and no third aspect of environmental damage is provided. | |
| 3 | The conventions of essay writing are used; there is an opening statement and a development of the subject matter, with a conclusion at the end. The register is suitably neutral for the most part, although the use of a colloquial yeah is not consistent with the rest of the essay. The essay is written for the most part in an objective way, but there is use of personal, subjective examples (Once I saw the river; I can’t make a sigh), which lessen the impact of the bigger problems. The target reader’s attention is held and straightforward ideas are communicated |
3 | The text is generally well organised and coherent. It is separated into paragraphs and the punctuation is generally used effectively, although there are some long sentences (And because of that we have problems with atmospeer, air in my city and in all Russia is really dirty and sometimes I can’t make a sigh because it smells around me and of course around that cars on the road). There is a variety of linking words (because; and; So; because of that) and some cohesive devices such as referencing pronouns, relative clauses and rhetorical questions to connect the ideas within the text. | |
3 | There is a range of everyday vocabulary used appropriately, and although there are errors, they do not impede communication (atmospeer; bycicle; sigh). There is a range of simple and some more complex grammatical forms: past and present verb forms are used with a good degree of control. |
To begin with pollution and damage to the environment is the most serious and difficult problem for countries of all over the world. Scientists of different countries predict a global ecocatastrophe if people won’t change their attitude to our planet.
First of all a huge damage to the environment brings a transport. People can’t imagine their living without cars, buses, trains, ships and planes. But it’s an open secret that one of disadvantage of these accustomed things is harmful exhaust. Needless to say that use of environment friendly engines helps us to save atmosphere from pollution.
In addition to this our rivers and seas are in not less danger situation. It’s a fact of common knowledge that numerous factories and plants pour off their waste to ponds. Obviously that cleaning manufacturing water helps to avoid extinction of ocean residents.
Apart from this I’m inclined to believe that every person can and must contribute to solving this important problem. Doing a little steps for protection our environment every day we will be able to save our Earth. And it’s a task of each of us.
4 | All content is relevant to the task. However, the target reader is on the whole informed, rather than being fully informed. Both numbered points (transport; rivers and seas) are referred to with some discussion of the problems caused (harmful exhaust; factories which pour off their waste to ponds) and some limited mention of solutions. No tangible 3rd aspect of environmental damage is discussed. While the writer does conclude with a strong statement of opinion (every person can and must) the reader is not fully informed on the solutions proposed (Doing a little steps for protection our environment every day we will be able to save our Earth) | |
| 3 | The essay is written in a consistently neutral register and the format is appropriate for the communicative task, using more formal language to introduce the ideas within the text (To begin with; First of all; It’s a fact of common knowledge). There is a clear essay structure with an opening statement, topic paragraphs and a conclusion which sums up the writer’s point of view. Straightforward ideas are communicated to the target reader but when more complex ideas are attempted these are sometimes not as successful (Obviously that cleaning manufacturing water helps to avoid extinction of ocean residents). |
3 | The text is generally well organised and coherent, using a variety of linking words and cohesive devices, particularly to introduce the ideas throughout the text (To begin with; In addition to this; Needless to say; Apart from this). The essay is clearly organised into paragraphs, which each deal with one idea. Occasionally the followup examples are not as clearly connected as they could be. For example, they discuss how factories pollute pond water and then offer a solution which would help ocean residents | |
3 | There is a range of everyday vocabulary used appropriately with some attempt to use more sophisticated lexis (a global ecocatastrophe; atmosphere; common knowledge; factories and plants; inclined to believe; must contribute to solving). There is a range of simple and some more complex grammatical forms used, and although there are errors, these do not impede communication (a huge damage; People can’t imagine their living without cars; one of disadvantage; in not less danger situation). |
DEVELOPMENT VS ENVIRONMENT
If we surf the web looking for pollution and environmental catastrophes, we will find out that every country in the world suffers them. This is a natural consequence of the struggle between development and environment.
If a country decided to live isolated from the rest of the world, living on what it can naturally grow and produce, it surely wouldn’t be highly polluted. But we all want exotic food and technological items from all over the world, so we have to pay the price.
Investing on electrical transport would benefit the environment a lot. Even more if this electricity came from a natural source of energy like wind, rivers and solar boards. It’s difficult to achieve this because petrol companies will fight against these actions.
We also have to take care of our rivers and seas. We all have heard about factories throwing highly toxic substances to rivers, without minimizing their poisoning effects. A really strict law should be applied to fine these factories and make them change their policy.
But what about ourselves? We also can do a lot! If, when possible, we bought larger packs of food, we would be producing less rubbish. And this is only an example!
5 | All content is relevant to the task and the target reader is fully informed. Transport is discussed with suggestions of how using different forms of transport would help the environment (Investing on electrical transport would benefit the environment a lot). The candidate then evaluates the suggestion (It’s difficult to achieve this …). Water pollution is described and a solution is offered (A really strict law should be applied to fine these factories). The writer’s opinion is clear in the choice of modal should. A third aspect (waste reduction) is introduced in the final paragraph with a suggestion about how to achieve this (If, when possible, we bought larger packs of food …). The writer’s opinion is expressed clearly (We also can do a lot!). | |
| 5 | The conventions of the essay format are used effectively to hold the target reader’s attention. There is an introductory paragraph which outlines the issues in general terms, and the concluding paragraph sums up in more concrete terms, what we, the readers can do to help. The register is consistently appropriate and the subject matter is dealt with in an objective manner, for example Investing on electrical transport; If a country decided. Straightforward and complex ideas are communicated (It’s difficult to achieve this because petrol companies will fight against these actions). |
4 | The essay is well organised and coherent, using a variety of cohesive devices. The paragraphs are introduced in a variety of ways, using grammatical structures rather than obvious linkers (If we surf the web; If a country decided; Investing on; We also have to; But what about). More could be done to link across the paragraphs, to make them less independent, but the overall effect is of a cohesive text. | |
5 | There is a wide range of vocabulary, including less common lexis used appropriately (environmental catastrophes; highly polluted; exotic food; highly toxic substances; minimizing their poisoning effects; change their policy). There is a range of simple and complex grammatical forms used with a good degree of control and flexibility to convey certain ideas succinctly. There are minimal errors which do not impede communication. |
In your English class you have been talking about the fashion industry. Write an essay using all the notes and giving reasons for your point of view. |
In today’s world, the fashion industry has a strong importance in people’s lives. The fashion industry say to the society what to wear and creates new types of clothes all the time.
Some people claim that the fashion industry has a bad effect on people’s lives, they say that the fashion industry creates clothes that the society has to wear. Furthermore, the clothes’ price is extremely high and people, who can’t afford it, should not be in the society.
In the other hand, the fashion industry guide the people to be in a good appearance, because, nowadays, the appearance of the person is more important than the person itself.
In my opinion, the fashion industry doesn’t has a bad influence on people’s lives. It’s something which was created to help people what to wear.
5 | All content is relevant and the target reader is fully informed. The essay discusses the role of the fashion industry and expresses some negative aspects (nowadays, the appearance of the person is more important than the person itself) and also cost (the clothes’ price is extremely high). The candidate also expresses their own idea, suggesting that the fashion industry has a lot of influence on people (say to the society what to wear). The candidate concludes the essay with an opinion, which sums up the main points made. | |
| 2 | Some of the conventions of essay writing are used appropriately. The register and tone are consistently formal and there are some expressions which are appropriate for an essay (In today’s world; Some people claim; Furthermore; In my opinion). There is also an introduction and a conclusion. Although straightforward ideas are communicated, the target reader’s attention is not always held. For example, the final paragraph attempts to sum up the main points, but the ideas are not clearly expressed. |
2 | The text is generally well organised and coherent. There is a clear structure to the text with an introduction, main body and conclusion. Paragraphs are used for the development of ideas. The text is connected using linking words and a limited number of cohesive devices, some of which are misused. More use of pronouns would limit the repetition of key phrases. | |
2 | There is a range of everyday, topic-specific vocabulary, which is used appropriately (creates new types of clothes; Some people claim; extremely high; is more important than). Simple grammatical forms are used with a good degree of control, although the use of verbs in the third person is not consistent. There are attempts to express ideas using a range of grammatical forms, passives and modals for example, but these are less successful (people, who can’t afford it, should not be in the society; the fashion industry guide the people to be in a good appearance; It’s something which was created to help people what to wear). Errors are noticeable but meaning can still be determined. |
Fashion industry is very a discussed subject nowadays: they create and design new clothes everyday in order to satisfy some people needs.
There are many people who claim that the fashion industry is important and good for society. According to them, this industry design beautiful clothes and thanks to that every person can wear shirts, trousers or any acessory which is on today’s fashion.
On the other hand, the fashion industry in some people opinion, controls the market of clothes and because of that they can’t wear what they want to. In addition, the industry can increase the price of clothes, forcing people who don’t want to be “oldfashioned” to buy and pay a large amount of money to keep “beautiful”.
In my opinion, we can’t let the fashion industry decide what we must or musn’t wear. We shouldn’t judge people for its appearance,because that is not important. We must wear whatever we like, want and feel confortable with.
5 | All content is relevant to the task and the target reader is fully informed. The candidate discusses the importance of appearance in terms of fashion (this industry design beautiful clothes and thanks to that …) and concludes that We shouldn’t judge people for its appearance. The negative aspect of the price of clothes is mentioned and an opinion given on how this affects people’s choice (forcing people … to buy and pay a large amount of money to keep “beautiful”). A third aspect states how choice for consumers is limited due to the fashion industry’s control over design and the market (the fashion industry in some people opinion, controls the market of clothes) | |
| 3 | The conventions of essay writing are used appropriately. There is an introduction, topic paragraph and a conclusion. The register is appropriate for the task, using generally neutral language to discuss both positive and negative aspects of the question. Straightforward ideas are communicated, using some appropriate language (in order to; According to them; the industry can increase) to introduce the ideas, and to hold the target reader’s attention. |
4 | The essay is well organised and coherent. There is a clear overall structure and the ideas are linked across sentences and paragraphs using referencing, substitution and paraphrasing to avoid repetition. There are a variety of appropriate linking words and cohesive devices (many people who; According to them; this industry; thanks to that; On the other hand; In addition; In my opinion). | |
3 | A range of everyday, topic-specific vocabulary is used appropriately (to satisfy some people needs; good for society; controls the market; forcing people) but some errors do occur with less common lexis and expressions (on today’s fashion). A range of simple and some complex grammatical forms is used with a good degree of control (can increase the price of clothes, forcing people who don’t want to be). There are some repeated errors with prepositions and third person verbs, but these do not impede communication. |
The society we live today is characterised by technology in constant development, fast speed processes, information travelling and getting to people at a blink of an eye and a complex web of social networking. In this context, the fashion industry is becoming increasingly important and having a more and more paramount role in our lives.
On one hand, the fashion industry is undeniably a source of profit and income. It hires millions of people all over the world and generates millions of dollars every year. Furthermore, such profitable business is also believed to be able to spread and make known the culture of a people, encouraging and enhancing a better understanding of each other.
Nevertheless, for those who are neither impressed nor motivated by numbers and figures, the fashion industry is seen as one which segregates people, isolating those who not fit their laws and commands. It is stated that people place too much importance on appearance and the material, world, sadly true, and the fashion industry just spurs on such situation. Moreover, not only are the costs of fashion item unrealistically high, it is thought to be a money better spent on more pressing issues, such as poverty and hunger.
I do believe that the fashion industry, as it is today, has a harmful effect, because it values a minority of people in detriment to the majority. However, it has such a wide reach that, it put into a good use, it can save lives.
5 | All content is relevant to the task and the target reader is fully informed. The candidate presents a balanced argument, discussing their own idea first that the fashion industry is important as it provides jobs and income for a huge number of people. The essay then discusses the negative aspect of the fashion industry in relation to appearance (the fashion industry is seen as one which segregates people; people place too much importance on appearance). Finally, the high cost of fashion is mentioned in relation to the price of clothes and it is suggested that money could be better spent on social issues rather than on fashion. | |
| 5 | The conventions of essay writing are used effectively to hold the target reader’s attention. The register and tone are consistently appropriate and there is a range of suitable expressions which introduce both positive and negative aspects of the question, which are balanced throughout the essay. Straightforward and more complex ideas are communicated, making links between the importance of fashion in consumers’ lives and how the fashion industry affects people, communities and wider society (the fashion industry is undeniably a source of profit and income. It hires millions of people all over the world; it values a minority of people in detriment to the majority). |
5 | The essay is well organised and coherent. There is a clear overall structure and the ideas are linked effectively across paragraphs and sentences through the use of paraphrasing, substitution, ellipsis and referencing (In this context; It hires; such profitable business is also believed; Nevertheless, for those who; sadly true; such situation; not only are). Organisational patterns are used to generally good effect, for example links are made between fashion and industry, fashion and finance and fashion and society throughout the text, making clear connections between the separate aspects. | |
5 | There is a range of vocabulary, including less common lexis which is used appropriately in most cases (is characterised by; at a blink of an eye; paramount role; undeniably; the culture of a people; enhancing; neither impressed nor motivated; segregates; isolating; in detriment to).

“There are more reasons to learn a foreign language than to pass a test”
Everything around us revolves around language(s), it is the most important thing in our lives. Society would just not function without it. They are It is our future and I would personaly love to learn as many as I possibly can.
Not everything in life is done because it is necessary. Learning a new language can be a lot of fun. Many people only do it as a hoby, or their knowledge is something that brings them pride and pleasure.
Secondly, we have people who do it simply to challenge themselves. Truly I believe that having a great outcome that stems from your hard work and dedication to learn something new is a wonderful way to challenge prove your ability to yourself and others. Then there is travelling. It is very important to be able to understand and have a conversation with someone abroad, unless you would like to get lost or worse.
To conclude, I think that learning a new language is an amazing thing no matter why you do it. It is always better to do things out of enjoyment, but even if you do it for a test, that knowledge will always be useful.

Learning a a foreign languages is very important nowadays. English, in particular, is essential because it allows is spoken all over the world. That’s the reason why we start studying it from the age of six years old. Going abroad and being able to speak to native people is very satisfying and that’s why I want to improve my knowledge about foreign languages.
I decided to take this exam to know how high my level of English is, but also because I need this certification to go abroad next summer. I really want to come back to Cornwall, an amazing region in the South-West of England. I’ve been there twice with my family, but now I want to go alone. Only being there to England I can really improve my English comprehension and speaking skills.
Fortunately I can will have some English lessons which taught in English at university and I can’t wait for it because it will be an interesting challenge for me. Studying foreign languages is essential to live and to travel. It isn’t simple and I surely have to challenge myself everyday, but the result is so satisfying that we I can’t do without it.

A very common topic that is being discussed nowadays is wether schools should teach subjects that some may consider useless later in life. A clear example is history, since it is quite difficult to learn and does not help us in day-to-day activities.
However, many people do not realize the importance of it or that it affects our lives today. For example, our political system would not be this way if it weren’t for the Ancient Greeks, numerous politicians and wars who helped shape democracy and our constitution. Yet it is still thought that it’s useless.
In addition, it is very important that we never forget about our past since we must know where we were standing years ago. Moreover, there are some things, such as World War II, that we have to remember to prevent them from happening again. We should also know where we we were standing a century ago: our origins, our identity. The more you learn about your ethnicity, the better.
All in all, I think that it is extremely important to learn about one’s own country’s history. Anyone who gets the chance to do this should not waste it, since they are very fortunate to have this opportunity

Role Model Essay – There are many people in the world who blindly follow anyone. Also, they admire and love that person no matter what he does. A role model is a person who inspires you to be like him.
Moreover, a role model is the person you love and want to be like him. Besides this, the role model can be anyone from a celebrity to a politician to your family member.
The missile man of India Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam is my role model. He is my role model not because he has achieved great things in life and become the president of India. He is my role model because he dedicated his entire life to the country and its people especially school children.
Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam worked his entire life and achieved many great things in life. But several of his bigger achievements are the testing of Atomic bombs at Pokhran, development of the missile Agni and Prithvi, and becoming the president of India . But there is one more thing which is of great importance that is after his retirement from the presidential post he started teaching because it was his passion.

Dear Kerry Ann,
As a new tenure-track professor, I like the idea of building a mentoring network instead of searching for one or two guru mentors in my department. I have been working to complete various aspects of your mentor map , but I keep getting stuck on the role models part. I’m not sure how to think about academic role models as an African-American scholar, because there are so few women of color on my campus.
Am I thinking about this too narrowly? Why do I need role models as part of my mentoring network? And how can I find role models when there is so little diversity at my university?
Ruminating on Role Models
Dear Ruminating,
I’m pleased to learn that you’re consciously and intentionally building a large network of mentors. You are not alone in feeling confused about the role models segment of the mentor map. When I’ve had the opportunity to lead workshops on mentor mapping, it’s one of the areas that consistently cause faculty members to pause.
Participants typically have one of three responses: 1) they have no role models and struggle to come up with a single name, 2) they have many people they consider role models and can’t stop gushing about how awesome they are, or 3) they believe all __________ (fill in the blank with people like them) are role models and it’s counterproductive to name anyone specifically.
So let me clarify what I mean by a role model, why it’s important for you to identify several and how to go about identifying them.
Understand the Value of Role Models
I have simple criteria for identifying role models:
I suggest these criteria because you want your role models to be real people who embody your definition of success -- not your department, university or discipline’s version of success. Why? Because you will get the most from them by learning what they do, how they do it and the types of choices they’ve made along the way.
For underrepresented scholars, role models have the power to open up previously unimagined possibilities. For example, when I was an undergraduate student, I knew that I wanted to be a teacher. But it wasn’t until I encountered Professor Geneva Smitherman that the synapses in my brain formed the thought “I could be a professor.” Nobody ever told me I couldn’t be a professor, but I completed four years of college before I encountered an African-American female professor.
Dr. G (as she was known to her students) wasn’t any ordinary professor. She was brilliant, accomplished and fly, and she unapologetically identified as a scholar-activist. Just being in the presence of this woman -- braids flying and brilliance flowing -- rocked my world. Her presence opened my sense of what was possible for me . In other words, the fact that she existed meant that somebody like me could be a professor.
Just seeing her speak would have been enough, but I also became her undergraduate research assistant. Working for her directly helped me understand the ins and outs of professorial life, including how intellectual projects develop over time and how a scholar-activist manages her time between the campus and the community. Her generosity in sharing her path and encouraging me to pursue a Ph.D. taught me the most powerful lesson of all: I could do that, too!
This is why I encourage you to include role models as part of your mentoring network. Saying “everyone is a role model” or “I don’t have role models” stops people from identifying and claiming their aspirations. Both responses keep a person isolated in their own status quo. If nobody is doing anything even remotely related to what you aspire, then your goals will often feel impossible and unattainable, and may even be unrealistic for a full-time academic. And while there’s some truth to “every __________ is a role model,” I would consider both the validity of that statement as well as how saying that lets academics off the hook from naming what they truly desire.
Identify Who Your Role Models Are (and Why)
As an early-career faculty member, it’s important to know that the big things you aspire to can be done and that you can do them. So ask yourself, “Who is living their academic life in a way that I aspire to lead my own?” If you could imagine yourself operating at your full potential -- in the direction you want and in a way that would be fulfilling and amazing -- what would that look like?
If you’re drawing a blank or thinking, “Everyone is a role model,” then challenge yourself to get highly specific. And this summer is a great time to make a project of identifying your role models. You could journal your answers to the above questions. You could brainstorm with friends, family and/or colleagues. Or you could ask other people who their role models are for inspiration.
I recently asked a group of women scholars of color to name their role models as part of a master-class series that the National Center for Faculty Development & Diversity is planning, and we received a list of nominations that is sure to spark your imagination, inspire your thinking about role models and help you get far more specific.
Once you have a few role models in mind, take time to learn about their career (i.e., read their faculty bio, review their CV and/or Google them). Depending on who they are, you may find articles that have been written about their career or interviews of them. That is incredibly valuable information because, as important as it is to identify role models, it’s even more important to learn how they got to where they are today.
Once you have identified several role models, you could contact them directly and ask for a brief conversation on a specific question. I melt whenever someone emails me and says, “You’re one of my role models because __________ and __________. Could I schedule a 20-minute call with you to learn how you __________?” I’m not saying every role model will respond, but if even one does, it’s worth the effort. And the added bonus is that you will surely make someone’s day by letting them know they are a role model of yours.
Don’t Limit Your Role Models
I don’t want to leave the impression that you should have one, and only one, perfect role model. Instead I encourage you to choose a variety of role models. And they don’t all have to be just like you demographically. In fact, it’s important to have a diverse array of role models that exemplify various aspects of your aspirations.
I also recommend you select both near and far role models. In other words, select some role models who are just two steps ahead of where you are now (your peers), as well as those who are far ahead of you (senior faculty members). Typically, your peer role models have done something specific that you admire (won a large grant, had amazing media coverage of their first book or had three kids while on the tenure track) and they tend to be more readily available to chat about their process. Those farther ahead on the path may embody the academic life you want to grow into more fully. Personally, I don’t hesitate when I have the opportunity to say, “You are one of my academic role models because __________.”
I hope it’s clear that you don’t have to restrict your role models to your own institution. At times, you may have an abundance of role models on your campus. I once was a faculty member in a department with Barbara Ransby and Beth Richie , and the chancellor was Paula Allen Meares ! But at other times, you may find yourself without any role models on the campus. That’s OK. Just appreciate when you have them close and be expansive in your thinking when you don’t.
Identifying and connecting with role models is ultimately about you becoming the best version of your definition of success -- not becoming a mini version of somebody else. You are already a role model for your students (whether you know it or not). So why not start identifying people who are succeeding in a way you aspire to -- and then learn (directly or indirectly) how they got where they are today?

The supply chain model explains how the network of acquiring the final product is sequentially arranged. For the students of economics, it helps to illustrate clearly the complex process of production. Here, the supply chain of McDonald’s will be taken as the template for analysis. In general, McDonald’s is a transnational fast-food chain with more than 38,000 locations (Langert, 2019).
It manufactures the most common fast food products: for example, burgers, French fries, sandwiches, and desserts (“McDonald’s menu,” 2023). For the convenience of discussion, the US will be the main market for analysis. The major peculiarity of this industry is the high level of competition between different retailers. Therefore, the supply chain should fulfill the requirements of cost-efficiency and swift movement.
For the aims of cost-efficiency, McDonald’s should devote a significant amount of expertise to create a satisfactory plan. The company should find the best place and create strict standards of quality. The important step here is to find appropriate suppliers that will deliver fresh products every day on time. In the case of McDonald’s, it may be lettuce and potato growers, poultry, and livestock farms.
Concerning the process of making, McDonald’s aim is to standardize their production to make the taste of food similar in all restaurants and facilitate staff training. In the fast food industry, delivery can be considered the process happening before making because it involves transporting products through refrigerated trucks. McDonald’s completely outsourced the process of transportation to trusted companies (McDonald’s Corporation, 2021).
The huge supply chain makes McDonald’s management establish clear-cut policies of returns, that is, sending back unused plastic and unused products. For example, McDonald’s elaborated complex information systems on all the movements in their supply chain, outlined business rules and formulated business regulations (McDonald’s Corporation, 2021). The category “enable” in the supply chain is a specific addition to the basic supply chain reference model because it unites all the processes that cannot be categorized into other steps.

The Technical Papers program is a core element of the SIGGRAPH conference. It is the premier international venue for disseminating and discussing innovative scholarly work in animation, simulation, imaging, geometry, modeling, rendering, human-computer interaction, haptics, fabrication, robotics, visualization, audio, optics, programming languages, immersive experiences, and machine learning for visual computing to name a few. SIGGRAPH 2024 presents a special opportunity of the conference’s return to Colorado for the first time since its 1974 inception, where some of computer graphics’ most pivotal research was initially shared.
Following on the success of SIGGRAPH 2022 and SIGGRAPH 2023, SIGGRAPH 2024 accepted submissions to two integrated paper tracks: Journal ( ACM Transactions on Graphics ) and Conference. Additionally, SIGGRAPH 2024 continues the tradition of awards for Best Papers and Honorable Mentions. These papers were selected for their research prominence and new contributions to the future of research in computer graphics and interactive techniques.
SIGGRAPH 2024 Technical Papers Chair Denis Zorin is proud to highlight these award-winning papers and thanks the selection committee who chose the Best Papers and Honorable Mentions out of a pool of hundreds.
Learn more about the Best Papers, Honorable Mentions, and Test-of-Time awardees below, get ready to explore what’s next in research at SIGGRAPH 2024.
From microfacets to participating media: a unified theory of light transport with stochastic geometry.
We derive a theory of light transport on stochastic implicit surfaces, a geometry model capable of expressing deterministic geometry, microfacet surfaces, participating media, and an exciting new continuum in between containing aggregate appearance, non-classical media, and more. Our model naturally supports spatial correlations, missing from most existing stochastic models.

We develop a grid-free Monte Carlo method for solving boundary value problems like the Poisson equation with Dirichlet, Neumann, and Robin boundary conditions. Unlike conventional PDE solvers, our method does not require volumetric meshing or global solves. It is robust, embarrassingly parallel, scalable to complex geometry, and allows view-dependent evaluation.
Bailey Miller, Rohan Sawhney, Keenan Crane, Ioannis Gkioulekas
Shape spaces are a powerful tool for nonlinear interpolation, extrapolation, and averaging of geometric data, but previous shape spaces permit geometry to self-intersect in nonphysical ways. We introduce a shape space where geometry naturally avoids intersection, as well as an adaptive collision potential that prevents collision while converging under refinement.
Josua Sassen, Henrik Schumacher, Martin Rumpf, Keenan Crane
This work introduces a variational preconditioner, based on the inverse Cholesky factorization, to improve the efficiency of solving dense systems discretized from boundary integral equations, effectively addressing the scalability issue commonly encountered in boundary-based approaches.
Jiong Chen, Florian Schäfer, Mathieu Desbrun
We extend the theory of generalized winding numbers to unstructured collections of rational parametric curves with a numerically stable algorithm, thereby allowing for robust and accurate containment classifications at arbitrary locations for non-watertight and self-intersecting shapes.

ORLANDO — The Boston Celtics ran roughshod through the playoffs, losing only three games en route to winning the 18th NBA title in franchise history. They did it with a complementary roster built through free agency, trades, and the draft. The Orlando Magic were watching.
President of Basketball Operations Jeff Weltman said Monday that Boston's winning model is important to study, but harder to emulate.
"There's so many different ways to get the job done," Weltman said. "Much of it is dependent upon your top guys. ... We pay a lot of attention to that stuff. There are maybe some commonalities (with the Celtics), but I also think we have to be understanding of how the world is shifting."
Weltman said that while he and his team pay attention to the successful teams and the decisions they make, he also said the ever-shifting NBA landscape factors into team-building.
With a potential landmark offseason beginning Wednesday with the NBA Draft, the Magic's ability to make good decisions in the upcoming weeks may decide their ceiling for years to come.
Orlando has some similar ingredients in place — dynamic forwards in Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner, an elite defense led by Jalen Suggs. But the Magic also have their own identity to forge.
"We're on our own path and we don't listen to the outside noise here," Weltman said. "Our goal is to win a championship and we have to approach that on an opportunity-by-opportunity basis and feed that into the context of our team. We do pay attention to (the winning teams), we talk about that, but ultimately we have to follow our own road map."

It's NBA Playoff Time!
Sportsline's proven model simulated the rocket mortgage classic 2024 10,000 times and revealed its surprising pga tour golf picks.
Rickie Fowler heads to the 2024 Rocket Mortgage Classic as the defending champion after getting past Adam Hadwin and Collin Morikawa in a playoff last year. Fowler has not won any other PGA Tour event since the 2019 Phoenix Open though, and he is a 45-1 longshot to repeat according to the 2024 Rocket Mortgage Classic odds. He is still seeking his first top-10 finish this season after finishing T-20 at the Travelers Championship over the weekend. Tom Kim, who finished second to Scottie Scheffler in a playoff at the Travelers, is the 12-1 favorite this week on the PGA odds board.
Detroit Golf Club has been a gettable course for golfers since it began hosting this event in 2019, as all five winners have finished at 18-under or better. Which golfers are capable of going low and should be included in your Rocket Mortgage Classic 2024 bets? Before locking in any 2024 Rocket Mortgage Classic picks, be sure to see the golf predictions and projected leaderboard from the proven computer model at SportsLine .
Our proprietary model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, has been red-hot since the PGA Tour resumed in June 2020. In fact, the model is up nearly $9,500 on its best bets since the restart, nailing tournament after tournament.
This same model has also nailed a whopping 13 majors entering the weekend, including the 2024 Masters -- its third Masters in a row -- and this year's PGA Championship and U.S. Open. Anyone who has followed it has seen massive returns.
Now with the 2024 Rocket Mortgage Classic field locked in, SportsLine simulated the tournament 10,000 times, and the results were surprising. Head to SportsLine now to see the projected leaderboard .
One major surprise the model is calling for at the 2024 Rocket Mortgage Classic: Cameron Young (14-1), who's among the top favorites this week at 14-1, stumbles and doesn't even crack the top 10. The 27-year-old American shot a 59 in the third round of the Travelers Championship, which was just the 13th sub-60 round in PGA Tour history. He started the day 11 shots back of the lead, but that round allowed him to ultimately post a top-10 finish.
However, Young finished outside the top 30 in his previous six tournaments, missing the cut at the RBC Canadian Open while finishing T-62 at the RBC Heritage and T-67 at the U.S. Open. He is still seeking his first career PGA Tour victory after posting seven runner-up finishes. Young ranks 102nd on the PGA Tour in scoring average, making him a golfer to fade this week despite his historic third round at the Travelers Championship. See who else to fade here .
Another surprise: Aaron Rai, a 40-1 longshot, makes a strong run at the title. He has a much better chance to win it all than his odds imply, so he's a target for anyone looking for a huge payday. Rai has been in excellent form since the end of April, making the cut in six consecutive tournaments while posting three top-20 finishes.
He finished T-4 in the CJ Cup Byron Nelson, T-14 in the RBC Canadian Open, and -T19 in the U.S. Open, with the latter of those results equaling his best finish in a major championship. Rai was also in contention at the Texas Children's Houston Open in March, finishing T-7 at 10-under. He ranks sixth on the PGA Tour in greens in regulation percentage and 11th in scoring average, making him a valuable longshot to include in Rocket Mortgage Classic bets. See who else to back here .
The model is also targeting three other golfers with odds of 40-1 or longer to make a strong run at the title. Anyone who backs these longshots could hit it big. You can only see the model's picks here .
Who will win the 2024 Rocket Mortgage Classic, and which longshots will stun the golfing world? Check out the Rocket Mortgage Classic 2024 odds below and then visit SportsLine to see the projected Rocket Mortgage Classic leaderboard, all from the model that's nailed 13 golf majors, including the last three Masters and all three majors this year .

An essay outline is a way of planning the structure of your essay before you start writing. It involves writing quick summary sentences or phrases for every point you will cover in each paragraph , giving you a picture of how your argument will unfold.
Upload your document to correct all your mistakes in minutes
Organizing your material, presentation of the outline, examples of essay outlines, other interesting articles, frequently asked questions about essay outlines.
At the stage where you’re writing an essay outline, your ideas are probably still not fully formed. You should know your topic and have already done some preliminary research to find relevant sources , but now you need to shape your ideas into a structured argument.
Look over any information, quotes and ideas you’ve noted down from your research and consider the central point you want to make in the essay—this will be the basis of your thesis statement . Once you have an idea of your overall argument, you can begin to organize your material in a way that serves that argument.
Try to arrange your material into categories related to different aspects of your argument. If you’re writing about a literary text, you might group your ideas into themes; in a history essay, it might be several key trends or turning points from the period you’re discussing.
Three main themes or subjects is a common structure for essays. Depending on the length of the essay, you could split the themes into three body paragraphs, or three longer sections with several paragraphs covering each theme.
As you create the outline, look critically at your categories and points: Are any of them irrelevant or redundant? Make sure every topic you cover is clearly related to your thesis statement.
When you have your material organized into several categories, consider what order they should appear in.
Your essay will always begin and end with an introduction and conclusion , but the organization of the body is up to you.
Consider these questions to order your material:
Professional editors proofread and edit your paper by focusing on:
See an example
Within each paragraph, you’ll discuss a single idea related to your overall topic or argument, using several points of evidence or analysis to do so.
In your outline, you present these points as a few short numbered sentences or phrases.They can be split into sub-points when more detail is needed.
The template below shows how you might structure an outline for a five-paragraph essay.
You can choose whether to write your outline in full sentences or short phrases. Be consistent in your choice; don’t randomly write some points as full sentences and others as short phrases.
Examples of outlines for different types of essays are presented below: an argumentative, expository, and literary analysis essay.
This outline is for a short argumentative essay evaluating the internet’s impact on education. It uses short phrases to summarize each point.
Its body is split into three paragraphs, each presenting arguments about a different aspect of the internet’s effects on education.
This is the outline for an expository essay describing how the invention of the printing press affected life and politics in Europe.
The paragraphs are still summarized in short phrases here, but individual points are described with full sentences.
The literary analysis essay outlined below discusses the role of theater in Jane Austen’s novel Mansfield Park .
The body of the essay is divided into three different themes, each of which is explored through examples from the book.

You will sometimes be asked to hand in an essay outline before you start writing your essay . Your supervisor wants to see that you have a clear idea of your structure so that writing will go smoothly.
Even when you do not have to hand it in, writing an essay outline is an important part of the writing process . It’s a good idea to write one (as informally as you like) to clarify your structure for yourself whenever you are working on an essay.
If you have to hand in your essay outline , you may be given specific guidelines stating whether you have to use full sentences. If you’re not sure, ask your supervisor.
When writing an essay outline for yourself, the choice is yours. Some students find it helpful to write out their ideas in full sentences, while others prefer to summarize them in short phrases.
You should try to follow your outline as you write your essay . However, if your ideas change or it becomes clear that your structure could be better, it’s okay to depart from your essay outline . Just make sure you know why you’re doing so.

However, the model essays in some IELTS books seem to confuse students because they are written in too many different ways (so the 'method' isn't clear).
