IELTS Writing Task # Essay

Nowadays, people of all ages from certain parts of the world spend most time at home rather than going outdoors. Discuss the reasons, is this negative or positive development?

SAMPLE ANSWER-

Evolving technology has made life and work easier. Many people find their comfort zone at home but staying indoors all day may fuel anxiety and insomnia in some cases. I personally opine that this trend has both an optimistic and pessimistic approach to it.

Looking at the positive side, working parents can look after family with flexibility in working hours thereby not affecting the career. Companies providing work from home facilities to their employers can reduce traffic congestion leading to saving time. To illustrate, a single parent can nurture their kids and work side by side, therefore maintaining a balance between the two. In addition, staying indoor can have individuals improve their sleeping pattern and eat healthier as well.

Another opinion could be that staying indoors for too long can have psychological drawbacks due to which people can have mood swings. Lack of contact with sunlight and nature can cause mental stimulation which can lead to depression. In fact, exposure to light is vital to activate the body’s internal clock and improve one’s immune system. Moreover, nowadays social interactions are essential for a human to survive in a community. For example, socializing helps people share their stress and relieve them of any mental disturbance.

To sum up, staying indoors can be comfortable to some extent but people have to eventually step out of their houses. Following a sedentary lifestyle could result in personal and societal drawbacks. Staying indoors can improve the productivity of an individual but going outdoors to indulge in various physical activities is equally substantial.

IELTS Essay # Most people prefer to rent their homes rather than buying them.

IELTS Writing Task # Essay

In some countries, most people prefer to rent their homes rather than buying them.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of renting a home?

SAMPLE ANSWER-

A safety and security a house provides is one of the biggest priority among people these days. But for some, there is another aspect of a house because investing in one is the biggest financial decision so they are contended by staying a place on lease. I will discuss the merits and demerits of renting a property in the forthcoming paragraphs.

There could be several factors why majority of people prefer living as a tenant. Primarily, people who are not certain about investing high monetary resources on property find it suitable to rent. Renting a property is advantageous mainly because it provides easy mobility and relocation especially when one is not sure about their stay in a particular city. Additionally, the responsibility and accountability like maintenance and repair are shared between the tenant and the landlord.

Alternatively, the real beneficiary is the owner of the house as the tenant does not get any return on the property. There is no stability as the person has to move from one place to another after the expiration of lease agreement. Furthermore, it increases the expenditure of packing and moving to the other place Moreover, the person who leases the place has to bear restrictions, such as not being able to modify the property according to their requirements and prohibition on keeping a pet.

To recapitulate, there are both benefits and drawbacks of rental accommodation in equivalent proportion. Though it reduces the expense of maintenance, in some cases, it leads to reduced sense of home security.

Essay # Companies sponsor sports as a way to advertise themselves

September 14, 2019 IELTS Research

IELTS Writing Task-2# Essay

Some companies sponsor sports as a way to advertise themselves. Some people think that it is good, while others think it has some disadvantages. Discuss both views.

SAMPLE ANSWER-

In today’s competitive market, sports advertising has a vast scope. Some people opine that sports sponsorship is a great marketing tool in order to promote their products. However, others believe that this marketing trend has tremendous drawbacks. And in this essay, I will discuss both points of view.

Sports sponsorship is considered as a lucrative industry across the globe, companies promote and publicize their products. Therefore, it provides an increase in sales, improves brand positioning and the brand gains popularity. In addition, it is also beneficial for the team as companies sponsor them with monetary resources which improves their performance and helps them gain popularity. Moreover, if a company becomes a brand ambassador of leading sports teams, they can gain huge profits by investing in sports events.

Opponents of this view believe that advertising through sports events is a deceptive way of marketing commercial goods. With increased commercialization of athletics and other sports activities, there is a higher chance of sportsmanship corruption. Furthermore, it would result in impulsive buying as people would be encouraged to purchase products which they rarely use in daily life. For instance, people buy products just because it is endorsed by their favorite cricket or basketball player.

To sum up, funding sports events can be advantageous for both the parties, the team and the company sponsoring them. Controversial issues and conflicts can be avoided if the companies sell quality products and the sports team plays honestly without adapting to any corruptive methods like match fixing and bribery.

IELTS Writing Task Essay # People are moving away from rural areas towards urban areas

September 11, 2019 IELTS Research

IELTS Writing Task Essay

In many countries, people are moving away from rural areas towards urban areas.

Why do you think that is?

What problems can it cause?

SAMPLE ANSWER-

Every year, thousands of people leave their countryside houses to settle in urban centers either within the country or across borders. Some people take this step with the intention of improving their lifestyle whereas, others seek migration when they suffer from a natural or man-made disaster. There are various reasons for the occurrence of rural-urban migration and the problems associated with it.

Most of the people who live in pastoral areas are self-employed in agriculture and farming. With changing climatic conditions, agricultural productivity and farmer’s financial security are greatly affected. The city life not only provides countryside people with better job opportunities but also with superior educational facilities thereby compelling people migrate towards conurbation.

Though rural-urban migration can prove to be advantageous from an individual’s perspective, there are some drawbacks that society has to deal with. With an increased rate of migration taking place, there are negative effects on the agricultural industry of a country because the rural development does not materialize. Having a large population in the cities leads to pressure on the natural resources and the services (health and education) of urban areas. Most importantly, due to the high illiteracy rate in rural areas, people are not suitable for better quality jobs and they end up living in slum areas.

To sum up, rural-urban migration is increasing at an alarming rate. I think the government should take action like providing better employment and services in rural areas so that the countrymen do not feel the need to continuously drift to urban centers.
