On the other hand, pets do bring along with them some issues. The major concern is the harmful effects of the animal hairs on the trachea of the old people ,especially the ones with asthma. The second issue is that old people themselves require care and concern and it is not always possible for them to cuddle the pet, causing distress in pets as well as dogs.

Overall, adopting pets surely brings along with it problems for the old people, one cannot deny the benefits of mental and physical health come with pets in the lives of old people. In my opinion, instead of not keeping pets, further support will be more beneficial.

IELTS Essay Sample Answer # Natural Resources

You should spend 40 minutes on this task.

Natural resources are depleting and there are not enough to sustain the economic growth of the country.

To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Write at least 250 words.

SAMPLE ANSWER

An increase in population world wide has marked a dramatic decrease in the natural resources. Some people are of the opinion that at such rates of depletion, sooner we will have no natural resources for the economic growth of the country. However, others believe that with the advancement in technology, ways to preserve natural resources will pop up.

On one hand, natural resources are surely depleting at faster rates than ever before. Main reason being their increased demands. For instance, with more people have two wheeler vehicles, the consumption of petrol has risen, leading to the fall in its amount. Lesser the petrol, higher will be the prices and more money will get spent on the transportation, dampening the economic growth.

On the other hand, with the advancement in technology it is possible that we might not even use the natural resources at the rate at which we are presently using. For instance, it is quite possible that within ten years a technology to utilize wind energy more effectively is made. This will surely decrease the use of non-renewable resources, leading to their prevention and increased economic growth (wind is free).

Overall, levels of natural resources are surely going down but it is no doubt that with advancement in technology, the alternative methods will be used more effectively in near future, improving the economic and environmental standards.

Some people think that they can learn better by themselves than with a teacher. Others think that it is always better to have a teacher.

Discuss both sides and give your opinion.

Write at least 250 words.

SAMPLE ANSWER

Learning is an ongoing process. The one who stops learning is the one who gets old. Some people believe that to learn it is very important to have a teacher, whereas others are of the opinion that one does not requires a teacher to learn something. In my opinion, teacher plays a very important role in learning during early stage, however with time, one can learn  things on his/her own.

Teachers surely play a crucial role in the process of learning. Firstly, a teacher has adequate knowledge to make subjects easier for the students and also teach them in a more effective way. For instance, a particular student might be weak in some subjects but a teacher makes learning the subject more fun and teaching them according to their mental capacity. Even more, some children can learn better in groups. A class proves beneficial for such students as it provides them with the point of view of many others.

On the other hand, with the coming of technology, many universities provide online courses such that students can learn varied topics on their own. This has proved as a boon for those who are too shy to attend classes because of their age or are not able to pay the tuition fee. Even more, learning things by oneself often provides students with more knowledge as compared to one imparted by teachers.

Overall, in my opinion, teachers role in the younger years of learning can never be taken away, however, self learning is a more effective way of learning in the later years of life.

IELTS Essay Sample Answer # Capital Punishment

You should spend 40 minutes on this task.

Without capital punishment our lives are less secure and there are higher chances of increased crime.

To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Write at least 250 words.

 

With the increasing crime rates world wide, an appeal towards capital punishment is being made. Although some people believe that capital punishment is necessary for reducing the crime rates, opinions also exist claiming that we should get away with this form of punishment. In my opinion, the only way to reduce crime is by strengthening the law and order.

Arguments in favor of capital punishment surely provide valid reasons. Firstly, some crimes are so cruel that not punishing severely makes the victim feel insecure. For instance, the terrorist who get caught up after a bomb blast, if are not provided severe punishment could act as insult to injury for the thousands of people who lost their loved ones. Secondly, weak punishment often instigates the feeling that one can get away with whatever they want to do. For instance, if a person after raping gets bail, becomes an example for many criminals; they know that even after destroying someone’s life they will be able to lead a normal life.

However, human and his actions are very complex, defining simple punishments for all is not the most pragmatic thing to do. For instance, a boy who just stepped into adult hood, aged 20, if murders someone, capital punishment might not be the right solution. Because it might be possible that there were several other factors responsible for it. In my opinion,  government should be the responsible authority to provide a secure and better state to live.

Overall, serious punishment is surely necessary to bring law and order in the country but it is the responsibility of law to ensure that the wrong doer gets the right level of punishment.
