Genetic engineering is a dangerous trend. It should be limited. To what extent do you agree?

Genetic engineering all over the world has been developing more since duplication of the sheep called Dolly found. There are benefits and downsides in

great biotechnology. I will argue that the genetic engineering has allowed us to live longer and to live a better life.
However
, I think that we should consider its unexpected and negative effects at a same time.
To begin
with, people can live longer with treatment and they can eat much better food from GMO products.
For instance
, after the stem cell was discovered, incredibly, many patients who were suffering from incurable diseases could be treated with new genetic treatments.
In addition
, genetically manipulated crops have so strong resistance against pests that we can eat good quality food and it is
also
environmentally-friendly because of the decreasing usage of pesticides and fertilizers.
Hence
, I’ve asserted that genetic engineering makes us healthier and our life expectancy becomes longer.
In contrast
, we shouldn’t overlook the negative aspects of the genetic engineering. The development of the genetic engineering can lead to ethical issues and side effects. We don’t know enough about these problems yet because genetic engineering has only been around 30 years. In fact, Dolly as a successful result, lived for 7 years, but they had some problems.
Therefore
, I believe that genetic engineering can be dangerous, so that we should take into account its problems when they arise. In conclusion,
although
there are some downsides, I think that genetic engineering should be encouraged in order to help people live better

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
