IELTS Essay Sample Answer # Reduce Traffic Accidents

You should spend 40 minutes on this task.

The best way to reduce the number of traffic accidents is to raise the age limit for younger drivers and lower the age limit for aged ones.

Do you agree?

Write at least 250 words.

SAMPLE ANSWER

The advancement in technology and the improved economic standards of people has in some way increased the number of automobiles in the roads. With the increased number of vehicles and the busy lifestyle, the number of accidents have increased. Some people are of the opinion that the number of accidents can be lowered by increasing the age limit for youngsters and decreasing for the older generation. In my opinion, making another law might not be the most pragmatic thing to do.

Making new age limits can back fire the law in many ways. Firstly, by doing this  a simple message that the old and the young are reckless drivers gets into the local people. This might not go very well into the population. Secondly, it is not very pragmatic to make sure that the law is being followed. It is not possible for the police men to stop every vehicle and check the age of the driver, making this law redundant.

On the other hand, to reduce the number of accidents several other effective methods are available such as reducing number of vehicles on the road through car pool, implementing more stringent regulations on alcohol drink driving and possibly to revise on the standard of driving test for young and old drivers on the road.

Overall, increasing/decreasing the age limit might sound right, but it fails in its practical implementation. The government and individuals must step together and take steps to reduce traffic and accidents in a more practical way.

IELTS Essay Sample Answer # Higher Education In Abroad

You should spend 40 minutes on this task.

Every year an increasing number of students are doing their higher education in abroad. 

Do you think the benefits of this development outweigh the problems associated with it?

Write at least 250 words.

SAMPLE ANSWER

The past few decades have marked a dramatic shift in the number of people who choose to study abroad. Although studying abroad brings about great benefits for the individuals, it also has some disadvantages.

On the positive side of the trend, studying abroad provides better and more options to students to choose from. For instance, a student studying in a developing country might not have as many course or better facilities available (especially if he/she is not in the top colleges) as compared to those available in universities of developed countries.

Secondly, students get to meet more people from varied culture when studying in other country. This helps in making them more flexible and open to changes. Thirdly, it helps to promote the mutual understanding between their native country and their destination countries.

On the other hand, studying abroad is not possible for everyones pocket. The courses are quite expensive and because of the difference between economies of different countries, it costs an arm and leg to many. Even more, some students are not able to adjust to the new environment or sometimes the climate and other factors go against the students.

To sum up, one cannot deny that studying abroad has disadvantages and it is not possible for every one to make it, but the positives outnumber the negatives.

IELTS Essay Sample Answer # Change

You should spend 40 minutes on this task.

Some people prefer doing the same things through out their lives and avoid changes. Others believe that change is always a good thing.

Discuss both sides and give your opinion.

Write at least 250 words.

SAMPLE ANSWER

Most people struggle with change even if it is for the better. Some people are of the opinion that changes always bring positive impact on our lives while others are of the opinion that changes involve high risk and taking them can even make us fall from the place we are at. In my opinion, not all the changes are successful but we learn from the failures too. It’s a great opportunity for those who would embrace the changes and a tough time for those who don’t.

If embraced rightly, changes are very helpful. Firstly, they make a person more flexible. Changes are an integral part of our lives. Being stubborn or resistant to new things make life more stressful. Changes teach that it is good to be like fluid and go with the flow. The next best thing about change is that it makes us smarter. It is only when things change that we learn new things. For instance, it was after the creation of android phones that people started using phones excessively for playing games or doing internet.

On the other hand, changes are not always good. For instance, if a child good in studies and sports changes himself or herself to be more like a terrorist, it is not the best thing happening. Even more, frequent changes are not acceptable by old. Old people are mostly the ones who have undergone many changes through out their lives and now tend to live a more steady life doing things that they life.

Overall, changes do bring instability in ones life, which might not be good for some. However, changes if taken with positive stride mostly either teach a lesson or push us towards something better.
