As more of us are increasingly commute back and forth internationally due to globalization and cheap flights, some might claim that travelling does improve the appreciation for each country. Personally, I absolutely agree with

this

assertion and those avid travellers indeed understand and show greater respect to other cultures than those staying at home. There are several reasons why tourism could lead to better understanding of other traditions and customs.

Firstly

, as travellers go to isolated untouched parts of the world, stay with locals and learn about their culture and way of life,

this

no doubt results in strengthening the relationship between people from different backgrounds, which is a vital factor in appreciating distinct lifestyles and traditions. A family,

for instance

, reported that they had become more knowledgeable and been able to live comfortably in nature thanks to their stay with an Amazon

tribal

Suggestion

tribe

Secondly

, having opportunities to talk to someone who might not share the same values can indeed make a difference to people’s prejudice toward a unique convention,

thus

encourage us to appreciate it.

On the other hand

, those people prefer to stay in one place might argue that it is by no means necessary to travel to each place in order to treasure the value of some distant communities. They point to modern technology,

such

as the computer and the Internet which allow people to look into the outside world without leaving their desks.

However

, it is no doubt true that not all traditions and tribal lifestyles can be found on the Internet. In fact, there are some tribes living completely separate from the rest of the world and the only solution to know and appreciate those people is to meet them in person and stay with them for a period of time. In conclusion, it appears to me that travel does help us all to show respect to different cultures and I do not believe that modern inventions could fully assist us to achieve

this

desirable aim.

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

Some university students want to learn about other subjects in addition to their main subjects. Others believe it is more important to give all their time and attention to studying for a qualification. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
It is considered by undergraduate students that learning additional subjects is crucial while studying mandatory topics in universities. Meanwhile,others consider it is more essential to give their total time and focus on their main field to graduate with high grades. while allocating time effectively might be challenging for some people, I personally believe that expanding our horizon knowledge is important in life.

Sea Glider Shows Underwater Potential what it mean?
A strange-looking yellow "fish" has been lurking in the waters off the southern coast of Vancouver Island recently. Called a Slocum underwater glider, the 1.5-metre-long, 52-kilogram torpedo-shaped vehicle is under evaluation by the federal government’s Institute of Ocean Sciences (IOS). Driven entirely by a variable buoyancy system instead of a propeller, it needs no mother ship for tethering or support. The evaluation project is a formal collaboration between Fisheries and Oceans Canada and the Canadian Centre for Ocean Gliders (CCOG).
