OET READING DAILY
Gene reconstruction therapy, a cutting-edge medical approach, aims to correct or replace defective genes to treat genetic disorders. By manipulating the genetic code, scientists hope to restore normal cellular function and alleviate symptoms. While still in its early stages, this groundbreaking technology holds immense potential for treating previously incurable diseases. However, challenges remain, including the safe and efficient delivery of therapeutic genes, potential off-target effects, and ethical considerations.
Question:
What is a potential limitation of gene reconstruction therapy?
A) Inability to target specific genes.
B) Previously treated diseases are still incurable.
C) Difficulty in delivering therapeutic genes to the correct cells.

OET SPEAKING DAILY
SETTING: Clinic
TASK
Offer information on the safety profile of the influenza vaccine (conducted research and testing, mild side effects: soreness at site, low-grade fever, carefully formulated, etc.).
ANSWERS
LISTENING
Answer: A) A prolonged recovery period.
Rationale: The conversation highlights the physiotherapist’s concern about the lack of progress in knee mobility. This indicates a potential delay in the recovery process if the underlying cause of the plateau is not addressed. While options B and C are possibilities, the primary concern based on the given information is the extended recovery timeline.
READING
Answer: C) Difficulty in delivering therapeutic genes to the correct cells.
Rationale: While gene reconstruction therapy aims to target specific genes, the challenge lies in safely and efficiently delivering these therapeutic genes to the intended target cells. This can be hindered by various factors, such as the complexity of the human body, the presence of barriers that genes may encounter, and the potential for off-target effects.
WRITING
Ms. Mihiraa has been experiencing intermittent abdominal pain for approximately three months. She describes the pain as cramping or bloating. Her bowel habits have been inconsistent, alternating between diarrhea and constipation. There is no history of blood or mucus in her stool, and she has not recently traveled or made any significant dietary changes.
SPEAKING
Mihiraa, I would like to inform you about the safety of influenza vaccine. The influenza vaccine is generally considered very safe and effective. Extensive research and testing have been conducted to ensure its safety profile. While mild side effects are common, they are usually temporary and manageable. These side effects may include soreness or redness at the injection site, low-grade fever, fatigue, or muscle aches. It’s important to note that the vaccine is carefully formulated to minimize the risk of adverse reactions. Millions of people receive the influenza vaccine each year without any serious issues.
