IELTS Writing Sample Answer # Lack Of Water

You should spend 40 minutes on this task.

A serious problem affecting people right across the globe is lack of water for drinking, washing and other household purpose.

Why do many countries face water shortage, and what could be done to solve the issue?

SAMPLE ANSWER

Water, in present times, has come up as a great issue, with most of the countries across world facing shortage of water. Although in present times, most people do have water, the day when one will have to fight for water are not far.

One of the major reason for the water shortage is, people often tend to waste water. For instance, it is a common sight to see people leaving the tap open while brushing teeth or cleaning face. Even more, some people tend to wash their clothes in river water leaving the water dirty and of little use in later. To solve this problem, the government could bring more awareness among people regarding the importance of water. Even more, the people in their daily routine, must take steps to save water.

Another reason for the scarcity of water is the unequal distribution of water. It has been seen that, the water supply to the minister and other celebrities is more regulated than to the common person. As a result, the poor is often left with no water or very little water for day to day use. The problem could be addressed by supplying more water to the poor, equalising the amount of water among all.

To sum up, although it is clear the world is facing an acute problem, it is undoubtedly possible to start to tackle these issues, and improve the quality of life. Governments and local councils must take the lead in dealing with the issue, otherwise life will only get worse in the future.

Book Of One Kind # Essay For IELTS

You should spend 40 minutes on this task.

People must read those books that are related to real life events or established facts.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of reading only one type of books.

Write at least 250 words.

 

Books are a man best friend. With the variety of books available, one often gets confuse on what books to read and what to ignore. Although everyone has a different taste, some people believe that one must read only one kind of book, viz, books related to real life events. Reading books of only one genre brings with it some advantages and disadvantages.

Looking at the positive side of the argument, reading one kind of book, especially the one based on real life events, help broaden the horizon of an individual. It is often said, that if you know the past, you can make a better future. For instance, a person reading Mein Kemf, can figure out what the political circumstances were during world war and why did Hitler did what he did. Knowing the reasons can help avoid them in future.

However, limiting one to a particular kind of books makes the person knowledge quite stagnant. For instance, a person who reads only books on history will not know the fantastic literature Shakespeare has written. Even more, books on true events are not preferred choice of young. Example, a child of ten years will be more interested in reading fiction books; forcing him/her to read history or non-fiction might not be the most practical thing to do.

Overall, in my opinion, although reading one kind of book increases the knowledge by leaps and bounds in one field, but one must be allowed to read the book of their choice.
