Dear Prof. Lissette Rubiano,
The role of your Department in increasing membership is really to be
appreciated. This was shown at the last professional meeting of the
Teachers Club of the Pilar Elementary School, a neighboring school.
After the enlightening talk of one of your representatives, several teachers
there applied for optional insurance.
Our teacher’s club would like to listen to a similar talk since some of our
members have some questions about their own insurance policy. Specifically,
we want to know what benefits are available to government employee members
in terms of financing for investment. We also want more enlightening
about optional insurance.
Will you please be our guest speaker at our next professional meeting on
October 15, 2022 at the school auditorium? By accepting this
invitation, you will acquaint our teachers with the various opportunities
for improving their lot through insurance, and this will encourage the new
teachers to become members, too.
We will look forward to your being with us at 9:00 a.m. on said date.
Cecille Morgan
President, Faculty Club

The following text is for questions 4 to 6.
Going out in the burning sun without sensible protection is extremely
dangerous. There are many reasons why you should stay safe from the burning
sun. Some of them are you can get sunburnt, you can get skin cancers, and
you can damage your eyesight.
The first reason is that you can get extremely sunburn. Sunburn is the
skin’s reaction to the ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun. You can see
sunlight and feel heat (infrared radiation), but you can’t see or feel UV
radiation. It can damage your skin even on cool, cloudy days.
The second reason is that you can get horrible skin cancers because of the
damaging light rays. In Australia, over many people die from skin cancer
because they do not stay safe in the burning sun. Although this can be
cured, the prevention of getting burnt is a better solution than curing this
skin cancer.
Another reason is that too much time out in bright sunlight can damage your
eyesight. The intense ultraviolet (UV) rays of the sun damage sensitive
cells in the eyes, eventually affecting vision. Experts say it is difficult
to isolate the exact amount of damage that UV radiation imposes on the eye
over a long period. However, a number of studies have shown that the effects
build up and may increase the chance of developing eye problems later in
life. These may include cataracts, a clouding of the lens of the eye.
The last, after knowing all dangers of the burning sun without sensible
protection, I recommend you to wear a hat which can help your face, head,
and hair stay safe in the sun. You should also put on a shirt which can
protect you from many skin diseases, and you had better use sunscreen and
wear sunglasses to prevent eye problems.
