[{"id":2537,"title":null,"advertisement_flag":false,"author_id":1,"content":"\n\u003cp\u003eRecently, it has become an extremely controversial issue around the world that genetically modified crops have many drawbacks whose serious consequences on human health and the environment are not thoroughly understood in spite of its improvement to the increased volume of food. In this paper, I am going to  analyse the advantages and disadvantages of genetically modified food. \u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFirst and foremost, it is, perhaps, the case that genetically modified food is a good way to produce huge amount of food in a short time period and with less money.Equally important, people can cultivate this type of food in areas where it is difficult to grow because of low soil quality and lack of source of water for irrigation. It is certainly true that genetic modification is a good way to produce many types of seeds that have higher resistance to many well-known food diseases. \u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn spite of these benefits, there are a significantly high number of disadvantages related to genetically modified food. Perhaps one of the most obvious points is that it is causing more diseases to human being. Moreover, the organic food has more nutritive value than genetically modified food like vitamins and minerals.It seems to be clear that the genetically modified food may contribute to the pollution and produce many types of unknown seeds. \u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn conclusion, it is not doubtful that genetically modified food has both advantages and disadvantages. Some people emphasize the benefits of GM foods, while others are focused more on the negative side. To put it a different way, provided that the government address the magnitude of this massive issue and its underlying the causes, they can make a significant difference.\u003c/p\u003e\n","created_at":"2012-04-24T12:38:14.000Z","author_name":"merkhan","tag_groups":[],"slug":null,"parent_id":2536,"visits":0,"likes":-1,"image":null},{"id":2538,"title":null,"advertisement_flag":false,"author_id":1,"content":"\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eCritique\u003c/i\u003e\u003c/b\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e+TASK ACHIEVEMENT\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou were not able to achieve the task because you didn't say where you stand whether you agree or disagree with the statement \"Interfering with nature in this way should be prohibited\" in the requirement.\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e+LEXICAL RESOURCE\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eVocabulary is quite good but you need to put more effort into improving it.
