Today, the high sales of popular consumer goods reflect the power of advertising and not the real needs of the society in which they are sold. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

It is believed that the high sales of trending goods among buyers are the result of powerful advertisement which is not an authentic demand of the market and society. I absolutely agree with

this

Linking Words

point of view and I think that the majority of the endorsement makes people to purchase for unnecessary items.

However

Linking Words

, some advertising gives people information about know how product.

First

Linking Words

of all, the production of the new product doesn’t mean that there exists real demand of the product. Artificial call is created by the marketing team of any manufacture company to sell their products.

For example

Linking Words

, the promotion of the new iPhone 11 which shows how many cameras it has a high quality of pictures.

However

Linking Words

, it is not so different from the previous edition of the same iPhone. In the result of

this

Linking Words

advertisement millions of people bought new iPhones in order to alter iPhone 10

although

Linking Words

it was not required so far.

Secondly

Linking Words

, people do over consumption of goods because of unreliable broadcast and a psychological effect. There are some examples of increasing sales by ‘right’ marketing strategy to change the psychology of human.

For instance

Linking Words

sales of Orbit gums were doubled after the advertisement on TV where actor used two gums

instead

Linking Words

of one. Another example is usage of a toothpaste where actor used three or even five times more toothpaste than it was required. All these examples proved that human used goods improperly and sales of these goods would fall down in the case of learning. To conclude, huge manufacture companies make human buy consumer goods which are not necessary by using psychological influence and artificial demand.

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

Fatherhood ought to be emphasized as much as motherhood
I believe that child-rearing should be the responsibility of both parents and that, whilst the roles within that partnership may be different, they are nevertheless equal in importance. In some societies, it has been made easier over the years for single parents to raise children on their own. However, this does not mean that the traditional family, with both parents providing emotional support and role-models for their children, is not, the most satisfactory way of bringing up children.

The plans below show a public Park when it first opened in 1920 and the same park today. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.
In 1920, there were two entrances near both Arnold Avenue and Eldon Street, it is the same today along with an additional entrance from the underground car park. When walking into the park from the Eldon Street entrance in 1920, people would see a fountain in the middle of the park, but now, the fountain has been replaced by a rose garden surrounded by seats on four sides which were once placed around the park. In addition, on the right side, the glasshouse alongside the wall in 1920 had also been removed, and a water feature took up its place. And on the left side, the rose garden is completely gone. Moreover, to the left of the fountain, there used to be a stage for musicians, but now an amphitheatre replaced it for concerts, taking up more space than the old structure.

In many countries, young children are looked after by other people while parents go out to work. Is it a good thing or a bad thing?
Nowadays, It is true that young children are looked after by someone else when their parents are working. Although this trend can be a negative development because parents should take care their offspring by themselves, the main benefits are not only to parents who work full time but also to children themselves.

Today, the high sales of popular consumer goods reflect the power of advertising and not the real needs of the society in which they are sold. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
