The "What if Not" Situation.
It can happen that you are faced with a question that you have never thought about at all, and where it is difficult to think of concrete examples. Remember, however, that the examiners select topics which have been considered controversial by many people and that there is always a social context for these questions. Imagine, for example, that you get a question about whether you think the government should fund more research into the causes of cancer. All you know is that cancer is dangerous and kills many people. How are you going to write at least 250 words on this question?

The first step is to think about why anyone would suggest this question. There are two components to the question: a) the problem of cancer and b) the question of funding for research — who should do it? It may be very difficult for you to say anything sensible in answer to the first question if you do not know any facts about cancer.
