Give reason for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

Nowadays, many people choose a house over an
apartment

apartment but

apartment, but
it is still less preferred by the people. Safety is the utmost priority of an individual and the same applies to his family and friends. Apartments are built in

land, but
many flats due to the big size of the building. The biggest disadvantage of living in an
apartment
is a high risk of casualty when there is a fire, for any reason, in the middle floors of the building. It is impossible to save the lives of people living on the top floor.
For instance
, an accident took place, where I live, in a nearby building in 2017 and 20 lives were lost because of fire. The building collapsed when

the fire
caught in the 4th floor and rescue team didn’t make it on time.
Although
apartments

the apartments
are less expensive, and many people can afford the expenses,
however
the safety concern cannot be disregarded.
On the contrary
, houses are costly and cannot be afforded by many people, but they offer perks that make them their
first
choice. Safety is ensured for any sort of accident, as there are no multiple floors and one can easily exit the house. They are spacious, and offer you to

the design at your convenience.
In addition
, the rules and regulation of the
apartment
’s committee is not applicable as you can have your own set of rules.
For instance
, playing times for children is not fixed and water flow timing can be managed easily, etc. To summarize, houses are expensive to live in, but they offer life security and other luxurious services which makes it the
first
choice when choosing between an
apartment
or a house.

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

  • Summary
  • Restatement of thesis
  • Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

  • In conclusion
  • To conclude
  • To summarize
  • Finally
  • In a nutshell
  • In general
