Nowadays, it is obvious that the
congestion
 in nearly all over the world is on the increase and cities are becoming busier. In my opinion,
this
 problem must be tackled because it is a global issue and most of people, especially who live in big cities, are suffering from that. One of the main reasons which causes the traffic jam is that the majority of people prefer using their own cars
instead
 of public
transportation
.
However
, it is not impossible to find good and effective ways to control the
congestion
. Public
transportation
 is the easiest way to solve
this
 trouble. If there are comfortable and cheap public transportations
such
 as trains and buses, they will make people like to use them better than drive.
For instance
, in Manchester, Stagecoach buses are the most convenient buses that help the
city
 to have
comfortable life
Suggestion
a comfortable life
 in its roads and streets during rush hours. In fact, governments should provide much better public
transportation
 and charge prices that are affordable for everyone. Another solution to solve
that is
 to charge the
congestion
 fee for every car that will go into a
city
 centre. It will either discourage people from driving into that area, or raise more money for public
transportation
. A good example of
this
 situation is London, which now has a
congestion
 charge. Going to the
city
 centre in London costs about £8 per day. In conclusion, the problem of traffic
congestion
 can be tackled by improving public
transportation
 and by charging drivers who enter
city
 centres.

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
