Culture / CLIL
Smart-city projects around the world use data to support services such as transport, energy and waste management. Compare their purposes and safeguards rather than ranking cities by device counts. A proposal should explain data minimisation, access for non-digital users and a fallback when a system fails. A named city’s programme needs a dated source; this lesson’s district is explicitly fictional.
A documented example is Punggol Northshore in Singapore. HDB’s 2020/2021 annual report describes common-area lighting whose brightness is adjusted using movement sensors and analysis of traffic patterns. This links a service goal, reduced unnecessary lighting, to a specific mechanism. It is a dated report of that district, not proof that every smart-city installation has the same result. Compare it with our fictional district: both need usable public services, while our proposal explicitly asks about access and privacy.

Khái niệm chính
- Linking final consonants to initial vowels
- Turn off /tɜrn‿ɔf/; an office /ən‿ɔfɪs/; clean air /kliːn‿er/. Link the final consonant smoothly to the following vowel without inserting another vowel. Read: An efficient city needs clean air and open spaces. Do not add an /r/ where neither word has one in the narrated American model.
- Grammar
- Stative verbs normally use simple forms for states: I know the route. Some verbs use continuous forms for an active or temporary meaning: I am thinking about the plan (considering), versus I think it is useful (opinion). A linking verb connects a subject to a description: The square looks attractive; the air feels fresh. Use an adjective, not an adverb, after a linking verb when describing the subject.
