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.

IELTS Essay Sample Answer # Selection In Schools

You should spend 40 minutes on this task.

Some people think that schools should admit students on the basis of their academic abilities, while others are of the opinion that schools must allow students of different cadre to sit together and learn.

Discuss both views and state your opinion.

Write at least 250 words.

SAMPLE ANSWER

Schools are the learning place for students, a place where they develop new skills and improve on their already existing skills. However, there are opinions that schools must give admissions to students on the basis of their academic accomplishments while some are of the belief that mixed ability classes are more beneficial for development of children. In my opinion, mixed classes are more beneficial then classified classes.

Admittedly, streaming students is more beneficial to students as well as teachers. For teachers, separating students facilitates effective teaching as all the students sitting are on their toes to learn new topics. Even more, students can learn difficult topics and teachers can go ahead with providing in depth knowledge to students.

However, it is mixed classes that the all round development of a child takes place. It is because a mixed class tend to have the best academic student as well as the best football player. Interaction between these two students will help both of them, to improve on a facet that they are weak in. Even more, a streamed class tends to create the feeling in minds of students that they are less or more than others. This feeling in young minds is not a healthy approach in their upbringing.

Overall, streamed classes are beneficial for students who are interested in merely studies and also help teachers to provide effective teaching. However, in my opinion, it is in mixed classes versatile development of a child takes place, helping him/her in later years of life.

IELTS Essay Sample Answer # Death Of Tradition

You should spend 40 minutes on this task.

With the advancement in technology, the traditional skills and way of life are dying out. In this era of development, it is pointless to try and keep them alive.

To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Write at least 250 words.

SAMPLE ANSWER

Technology has made a way into our lives such that one cannot imagine living without it.  Some argue that such impact is so extraordinary that it would make conventional skills and life obsolete. Although, to an extent it has surely impacted the way tradition played its role in our live, saying, it would completely dissolve it, might not be the most sure statement to be made.

In this world of technology, tradition has surely made its way into it. Firstly, traditional skills and way of life are slowly becoming an alternative to the problems caused by living life influenced by modern technology. For instance, a home like restaurant that offers traditional food with an ambiance of traditional things can prove to be a another experience to people who are bored with the same kind of restaurants everywhere. In venues like these, people become more relaxed and at the same time educated about different cultures. Providing diversity and thus enriching modern ways of life, such traditional skills and ways of life would continue to have their place.

Secondly, conventional methods tend to provide ideas to the modern technology. For instance, the way in which homes are decorated traditionally has allowed various industries to make products that help in decorating houses easily and giving the traditional touch. This has helped in increasing their business.

Overall, traditional skills and life styles are increasingly becoming a useful alternative to the homogeneity brought by global applications of modern technologies. Although one cannot deny that technology is surely obsoleting some traditions, it is impossible in near future to completely dissolve tradition.

SAMPLE ANSWER

The world after the end of colonization has got divided into two parts : the industrialized and the developing. The main reason for the difference being the amount of money spent by the countries on different sectors such as education, health and commerce. Although, people living in the developed countries enjoy various facilities, those living in poor countries are faced with constant fear of economic breakdown. The numerous debts of these countries have resulted in a failed health care, an unstructured education system and a weak international trade.

Help from the rich countries will surely help in improving the financial situation of the countries. Firstly, most of the poor countries such as African, are facing acute poverty combined with poor health system making them more susceptible to epidemics.For instance,  the devastating consequences of the AIDS epidemic in those countries could improve if the infected population were to receive free drugs to control the disease, have access to health professionals and get information on how to prevent its spread.

Secondly, most poor nations take debt from richer nations or the world bank to improve their  improve their broken economies, but sometimes the money disappears with no significant changes and they cannot even pay the interest to the bank. With no money in hand, people tend to leave their education and start working at an earlier age. This often breaks the chord of the country as the education system plays a vital role in development of countries. Providing better education can help poor countries to get out of the vicious cycle of debt.

Overall, leaders of the developed nations play a crucial role in assisting developing countries in dealing with essential areas such as health, education and trade. Providing help can ensure a balanced world.
