TASK 7 It may be argued that the population should have a sufficient understanding of radiation phenomena to secure individual safety as well as democratic decisions. To attain this, it is necessary for the communicators of radiation information to be familiar with the laypeople’s perceptions of these phenomena. A questionnaire survey was conducted to examine non-experts’ conceptions of radiation phenomena. The survey revealed an incomplete understanding of concepts such as radioactive decay, half-life and absorption of radiation and a lack of differentiation of between radiation and radioactive materials. Many respondents did not distinguish between sources of ionising radiation and other environmental hazards. Nuclear power plants and submarines were the most feared sources of radiation. There are indications that the lay understanding of radiation phenomena and risk is to a large extent formed by mass media and that “school knowledge” of these phenomena is not applied in situations belonging to the “real world”. To resolve this problem, new teaching and information procedures are needed. These should take into account the learners’ perceptions and should integrate “school knowledge” with considerations belonging to the “real world”.

Their development could not be predicted by the scale of individual which is opposite from the determinist effect. 4 The healthy surroundings may be exposed to radiation during the treatment. 5 Radiation dose should be keep as low as possible. 2Academic Writing Understanding a research report or research article TASK 2 1 Four. They are problem section, procedures section, result section and discussion section. 2 Because it will contribute to the credibility of the research. 3 It can allow the reader to duplicate the experiment if there is some doubt about your findings. 4 It may evaluate the research results fully, point out what questions remain unanswered and perhaps suggest directions 。
