IELTS Essay # Children using video games

IELTS Writing problems solution type Essay # Children using video games

Many people today are worried about young children using video games. What problems might these games cause, for children and society as a whole? How could these problems be reduced?

Sample Answer

The almost universal availability of video games among children has presented us with a number of challenges and decisions, none of which are straightforward. I believe there are three main problems associated with these products, and also three remedies we can adopt.
Perhaps the major problem we need to deal with is the level of violence found in these games. Many of them feature aggressive or warlike characters, ranging from soldiers to criminals and killers. This inevitably leads children to believe that such behaviour is normal, or even desirable. A second issue is the obsessive way that some children use the games – for example, preferring their computers to real friendships, making these children isolated and socially naïve. Finally, there are physical effects from excessive gaming, including eye strain, insomnia and damage to posture. These can be difficult to reverse once they have taken hold.
Turning to possible solutions, one key step would be to legislate more strictly to control the content of these games. They could, for instance, be reviewed by censors in the same way that films are. This would prevent unsuitable material influencing young minds. To tackle the problem of obsessive use, we could make more counselling and advice available through schools. On the subject of physical side effects, advice on safe use could be included as part of the packaging or even the game itself, so that youngsters are constantly aware of the risks.
To sum up, this is a problem that has both social and physical effects, and the solution will require combined action by manufacturers, schools and authorities.

IELTS ESSAY : Causes and Solution To Environmental Damage

Writing task 2: IELTS ESSAY: Causes and Solution To Environmental Damage

You should spend 40 minutes on this task.

Write about the following topic:
An increase in the production of consumer goods is damaging the environment. What are the causes behind this environmental damage and how this problem can be solved?

Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant example from your own knowledge or experience.
Write at least 250 words.

Sample Answer:

In today’s materialistic world, the demand and production of consumer goods are rising at an unprecedented rate. This trend is exacerbating an enormous pressure on the environment. This essay will look at the reasons behind this issue and propose some solutions.

One of the main causes comes in the form of the infamous material plastic. It has become so widespread that a world without it is quite unimaginable, toothbrushes to medical machinery are all made up of plastic. From the making of it (made from refined crude oil) to the eventual largely improper disposal, it is one major bio hazard all the way through.

Another cause and effect factor would be e-waste. Despite electronics being fairly new to this world, they have already caused more than their fair share of environmental damage. While the fad for newer technologies is to blame for speeding up the damage, most of the blame lies on the improper disposal of these compound gadgets. Electronic garbage from various devices contain dangerous chemicals such as lead, cadmium, beryllium, mercury, and brominated flame retardants. When they are exposed to nature in land dumps, they can make the environment a more toxic place.

It is an unspoken agreement that the larger demand causes for larger exploitation. This would be fine if it weren’t for the fact that most of the assorted wastes have their own disposal methods. Sadly, these processes are largely unheeded by waste disposal authorities who instead choose to incinerate unsorted scraps, causing an even bigger environmental issue.

This is where the lack of stern policies come into play making what could be a great solution or regulation policy into a loophole allowing further abuse of the natural world. Enforcement of these pre-existing policies is a must, especially on large scale corporations. While the common people can do their bit by using the 3 R’s, we will make much faster progress if the authorities are questioned and regulated before the population.

IELTS Essay # Child Labour

You should spend 40 minutes on this task.
Child Labour is a major concern all over the world.
What are the causes of it?
How can the problem be solved?
Write at least 250 words.

SAMPLE ANSWER

Child labor is an international concern as it damages, destroys and spoils the present and the future of the child and the country. A child is the hope of a nation and yet when millions of them are deprived of a carefree childhood, it directly impacts the growth of the country. Although child labor is common in most of the parts of the world, it finds its crunches more in developing and underdeveloped sections.

There are several reasons for forcing a child to work. Firstly, it increases family income. A family which is finding it difficult to make its need meet is more likely to send their child to work than to school. Secondly, child labor is more likely to work at lower wages, which is exactly more factories are likely to hire them. Even more, a child is less likely to indulge in dishonesty and is less liable to misbehave or be violent, which is what makes them perfect for domestic aid.

Child Abuse

Although it might seem that the issue of child labor can never be solved, there are several ways in which we can surely fight the issue. Firstly, the government needs to make sure that the laws made strictly adhere. Even more, the general public should be made aware of the severe consequences of child labor. Secondly, an increase in employment opportunity for adults would help in overcoming the issue of poverty which is more likely to reduce the number of children being forced into labor work.

Overall, it is not only the responsibility of government to ensure that the number of child labors is reduced. But every educated person of a country to ensure that the children of the country get a bright future, a future that every child deserves to have. (301 Words)

IELTS Essay # Homeless People

You should spend 40 minutes on this task.
There has been an increase in the number of homeless people all around the world.
What are the causes of it?
You should write at least 250 words.

SAMPLE ANSWER

Home is the one place everyone wants to go after a long tired journey, be the journey of everyday office or of something as exciting as going on a world tour. But, there are so many people all around the world that are deprived of a beautiful comfortable home. There are people who need to live in sheds across the the roads and even worse some don’t even have that.

Many people across the world have left their homes in search of jobs in different parts of the country or world. While it is easy to leave the house, it is not very easy to get a job, leaving people homeless and jobless. There are even some children who shed away their responsibility of parents and send them to home shelters. These people are not only deprived of the love and care they deserve when they get old but also of the home they have built in their lives.

HOMELESS PEOPLE

Even more, there has been an increase in the crime rate all over the world. With the number of children being kidnapped all over the world, they are being forced into beggary or prostitution, taking away their home and beautiful life. In addition, with wars happening around the world, there are so many people who lose their accommodation and have to live in the refugee camps before any country accepts them. Sometimes this wait is only for some years while other times it extends to life time. Other factors such as natural calamities also play a role in taking away the homes.

Overall, surely there has been an increase in the number of people losing their accommodation. It not only causes them physical pain but as well mental agony. In my opinion, the government should surely take initiatives to ensure that more and more people have stable homes to live in. (312 Words)

Hints: Reasons for Homeless People

  1. There are people who are not able to afford a good home because of their limited income. As a result they are not able to access affordable housing and heath support.
  2. There are people in the world that are facing discrimination. As a result, even though they have the money, people are not ready to give them home, leaving them homeless.
  3. There has been an increase in the population over the past decade. Although the population has increased, the land remains the same. As a result, not much land is available to build houses, leaving people homeless.
  4. Other factors that are responsible for leaving people homeless could be – natural disasters, loss of job, family issues.
