IELTS Sample Essay Question # Prevention from Calamity

You should spend 40 minutes on this task.

 

It is the responsibility of the government to protect its citizens from any natural calamity. Do you agree or disagree?

 

You should write at least 250 words.

SAMPLE ANSWER 1

Natural calamity whenever occur cause a huge damage. Although, some people believe that there is nothing much can be done about them, neither by citizens nor government. There are some of the opinion that prevention from natural calamity must be the responsibility of the government. In my opinion, surely government has a huge role to play but they are not the only key players.

Government is the one having authority to make decisions for the millions of people living in the country and their decision surely have an impact. Passing a law that sets the standards for any construction will surely bring about changes and reduce the impact of natural calamities. Even more, there should be more campaign for combating natural disasters similar to the life taking diseases. In addition, once the calamity has occurred, governments must ensure that the rescue team reaches to the incident as fast as possible.

However, imposing everything on government is not really a pragmatic approach. Surely, government can make laws but until and unless we as individuals follow them, there is not much that can be done. Even more, people should act more pro actively while construction for their buildings are done, ensuring that the material used is right.

Overall, authorities surely have a major role to play in ensuring there are less damages being made post a calamity. However, nothing fruitful can be done if only one party tries. It must be a joint effort from both sides, citizens as well as government.

Prevention from Calamity

SAMPLE ANSWER 2

Natural Calamities often happen unannounced and the worst ones shake things up for the entire world. Knowing the impact they have made on our lives, some people believe that it is the responsibility of the government to ensure that the citizens of its country are safe during such a scenario. However, there are others who believe that government is of individuals just like us, having little control over natural calamities. In my opinion, surely government cannot do everything but surely certain steps can be taken by them.

Firstly, passing a law that ensures that a certain standard is maintained while doing any sort of construction can ensure that the impact of natural calamities is reduced. Secondly, government can make sure that the number of trees are increased and in cases of building societies, the plan must be such that it is surrounded by trees and other natural things. Nature often is the best way to fight back calamities. Thirdly, government can ensure that the people are made aware of any possible calamity through mass communication.

However, governance is only one part of dealing with the problem. Nothing can be done if individuals are not pro-active. It is the responsibility of the individuals to make sure that the they do follow the rules. Even more, in case there are no rules, they use the best quality product while building home or offices. Also, choosing places that are far away from the calamity zones must be preferred.

Overall, natural calamities have a very large impact on our lives and we must make sure that proper steps are taken to ensure that the post effect of the calamity are reduced. This is the responsibility of both the citizens and government.

IELTS Essay Latest Question # road safety

You should spend 40 minutes on this task.

Some people believe that the age limit for the drivers should be increased to ensure road safety.

 

To what extent do you agree or disagree?

 

Write at least 250 words.

IDEAS
  • Increasing the age limit will make people break the traffic rules more often.
  • Instead, the focus should be on ensuring high standards for giving the driving license.
  • The age does not determine how well a person will drive.
  • Trained traffic police and strict enforcement of traffic rules will ensure safer roads.
SAMPLE ANSWER

Traveling is in the blood of young people with most of them waiting to get their driving licenses. On the other hand, there is a rapid increase in the number of road accidents, especially the ones involving young drivers. Some people believe that the age limit for driving should be raised to tackle this situation. Although this is a feasible solution, in my opinion, there are other ways that should be followed to make roads safer for the general public.

age limit

Increasing the age limit will unlikely reduce the road safety as it is practically impossible to check every individuals driving license. Increasing the age limit will make it all the more fun resulting in increased illegal activities. However, if the focus is put upon improving the standards for getting driving license it will ensure that only the right set of people do get it. This will also make people to work hard to drive legally. For example, people can actually feel proud on gaining the driving license because it will be a proof that they indeed drive good.

Even more, age does not define how well a person can drive. Driving is more of how much you have practiced. Like, a 20 year old can drive better if he or she has been driving on rough edges. On the other hand, a 34 year may not drive that well if he or she does not has practice of driving.

Overall, surely age can play a role in safer roads, in my opinion it cannot be the deciding factor. Therefore the focus should be on improving the quality of rules and enforcement rather than increasing age limit.

IELTS Essay Sample Questions # People After Prison

You should spend 40 minutes on this tast.
Some people believe that people who have been in prison become good citizens later. It is often argued that these people are the best to guide teenagers about committing a crime.
To what extent do you agree or disagree?

This is a question for the IELTS academic writing section. Before you start writing the answer for the IELTS, the first thing that needs to be done is pin down the points which are going to help you form the sentences for the essays. Make sure you figure out early the flow of your essay, the kind of words you will be using and then move ahead with the essay part.

POINTS

  1. People in prison understand their mistakes and more importantly the circumstances in which they made them. This helps in understanding the other person who might be on the same path.
  2. There is no one better than them who understands the consequences of the things that a wrong move can take.
  3. People after having lived in prison can explain better how to live a life not falling into the loopholes that one might just get into.
  4. There is no guarantee that a person who has been in jail for a certain act might not do another. There are people who do revolutionize but then there are even others who still hold by the fact of a prisoners life.
  5. It is not necessary that a person who is living in prison could actually bring about change in the way people think about crime.

Once the points have been written you need to make sure what your point of view is  going to be. What is the exact thing that you feel about the topic. Make sure that you give certain examples for the topic and when you are sure of it, go ahead and do it. There are even people who spend around 15 minutes on figuring out what to say and when that is done, bring out the best in the remaining time. There is although, no such time limit on how much you should spend on figuring out what needs to be written but make sure that when you start writing the final essay you have already made a draft about what you are going to write down.

SAMPLE ANSWER

Prisoners are the people who have experienced the tough consequences certain actions can lead to. Some people argue that these people know the best and could help teenagers from not taking any dramatic step in their lives. In my opinion, if a person has truly evolved after spending life in prison, surely they can have a great impact on other people lives.

Teenage years are the ones in which a person is susceptible to lot of things and with an increased crime rate committed by teenagers, there are several reasons for criminals to help individuals. Firstly, a person who has been in the prison can explain in a better and deeper way the consequences one could have to face for wrong actions. They have examples and more importantly, they understand the other individual better as at some point, they can inter relate. Secondly, it is easier for them to judge the other person. So a prisoner can very easily predict the kind of trouble a teenager is having and under what circumstances can he or she take any drastic step.

However, it is not necessary that a person who has been in jail understands the consequences. It is very likely to be possible that the person has no regrets going to jail. If someone like him or her, counsels a teenagers the outcome could be more devastating than expected. Even more, it is not obvious that a person who has been in jail can influence people to be better.

In conclusion, a person who has faced the consequences of his or her actions can surely bring out change in the lives of others but it is not a compulsion. The most important thing is how well the people receive him or her and how well the person has evolved after the tenure in jail. (304 Words)
