Writing Essay Task: Mobile Phones and Social Interaction

IELTS Writing Essay Task 2 About Mobile Phones and Social Interaction
Some people say that technology such as mobile phones (cell phones) is destroying social interaction.  
Do you agree or disagree?  

writing essay task 2 about mobile phones and social interaction

Sample Answer: 

Mobile communication has become ingrained in our modern society as not only a necessity but also as a force of habit. When required to establish communication with a person, most of us would prefer to do it online. For good reasons too, we get to plan our responses better, as well as be in a comfortable environment and have a sense of control over the length of the interaction. Essentially, we remain in our comfort zones.   
 
Whether or not this is destroying social interaction as a whole is open for debate. Where some say it helps in dealing with anxiety, others question the outright aversion phenomenon it has given rise to. My personal opinion on the same stands somewhere in the middle.   
 
While I feel that we are indeed losing the touch of the art of social interplay, it is within reason to assume this was inevitable, as seen by the rise in far more casual exchanges with our superiors and elders. This is, however, no excuse for the careless use of devices to actively be rudely preoccupied in actual dialogue or for utilising devices to avoid them altogether. While face-to-face interactions might seem to be a far more daunting task, they are oftentimes equally rewarding. It is far easier to persuade people in person than it is through a screen, hence why sales employees are still present and thriving in a world threatened by automation. 
 
Whatever one might say, one has to admit that physical association is simply inescapable. One will have to get out and interact with peers eventually. Hence, I would conclude by saying that both means of communication have their own perks, and thus neither is a threat to the other. Mobiles will continue to act as personal messengers, and humans will continue to interact socially, be it through the medium of a screen or otherwise. As long as etiquette is maintained in mobile usage, there is no threat to public communication.

Line graph production of paper, wood pulp and sawn wood in the UK

IELTS WRITING TASK 1
You should not spend more than 20 minutes on this task
The line graph below shows the production of paper, wood pulp and sawn wood in the UK from 1980 to 2000.
Summarise the information by selecting and reporting main features and make comparisons where relevant.

Line graph production of paper, wood pulp and sawn wood in the UK

Sample Answer:

The linear representation provides information about the production of three forest materials, namely, paper & packaging, wood pulp and sawn wood in the UK for 21 years, between 1980 and 2000. The data are measured in million tonnes.
Overall, what stands out from the graph is that the production of paper & packaging witnessed an increase, whilst it declined in the case of wood pulp and sawn wood in 2000 compared to the initial years’ figure.
Looking at the details, the production of paper & packaging was the highest of all three materials in 1980 and accounted for approximately 235 million tonnes. Later, the figure rose modestly till 1990 to exactly 250 million tonnes, then skyrocketed to 300 million tonnes in 2000.
By contrast, a significant difference of around 30 million tonnes can be observed in the production between wood pulp and sawn wood, whose individual production stood at nearly 170 and 200 million tonnes, respectively. Surprisingly, in 1990, the production of both materials was identical. Meanwhile, in 2000, wood pulp outraced sawn wood in terms of production.

look after your house and pet while you are on holiday.

Sample Answer:

Dear Emily,

I hope life is treating you well! I was relieved on your response that you will be taking great care of my dog, Bruno as well as my house while I will be away from my home town. In case there was no prior bookings done for my vacation to Maldives. I would not have bothered you as it is a much-needed break for me.
I will be sharing the contact details of my neighbor Mrs. Annie; she resides just next to my abode. She would be available round the clock in case you need some assistance. Her number is 02066543 but she can only be contacted over a landline. Hope this will not be much of a problem for you.
Though taking care of Bruno is a tedious task, one has to be on knees all day round, as he is very mischievous. You know him quite well; he has grown when he was a pup in front of you. He was the bestest birthday gift from you, indeed! You need to take him on walk twice a day. In addition to this, you have to prepare his meals in his bowl which I have placed in the kitchen area near the cutlery shelf.
Would you mind me asking for some more help, as I would not be around, my garden area would need some watering during the evening hours, no specific time. Could be done whenever you have free time at hand. Have placed the main keys beside the garden area under the vibrant red carpet. Will be back home within a week. No need to worry as I have a duplicate set of keys making it possible for me to get in when I reach home. You please feel at home and make yourself comfortable.
Eagerly waiting for you to visit!
Lots of love,
Emma.

Academic Writing Task: Some people believe that schools should be allowed to evaluate and criticize their teachers

Academic Writing Task-2
Question: Some people believe that schools should be allowed to evaluate and criticize their teachers to improve the quality of education. Others think this is disrespectful to teachers. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

Sample Answer:

Assessment of teachers plays a crucial role in improving the quality of education. Few folks reckon that learners should have the privilege to closely evaluate the class performance of teachers and come up with valuable feedback. However, others are against this notion and feel this practice to be quite disrespectful to teachers. This essay will discuss both sides of the argument and state my opinion in the forthcoming paragraphs.
On the one hand, teachers indeed get a lot of benefits when learners assess them. Primarily, tutors have an opportunity to know how well the students can understand the lectures delivered to them and can make possible changes to the teaching methods to meet student demands. Subsequently, teachers who do not have acceptable ways of teaching can be given proper training. Furthermore, questionnaire usage for the same purpose without asking students to write their names on it will not hinder them from sharing feedback because they might feel scared to answer the same questions verbally.
On the other hand, opponents contemplate that giving learners the authority to evaluate teachers can have some adverse impacts. First and foremost, it can harm the teacher-student relationship as many pupils would use this situation to vent their frustration. Also, it is not an appropriate way to judge tutors since opinions vary from student to student. Apart from this, teachers feel that their efforts are not valued, and, as a result, their confidence levels are affected as they are always open to criticism.
To recapitulate, I believe that learners should contribute to teacher assessment, but, simultaneously, their feedback should be the only deciding factor for teacher performance. Instead, school or college management can use some other ways of teacher evaluation.

Feel free to call for suggestions and queries.
