Popular hobbies and interests change over time and are more a reflection of trends and fashions than an indication of what individuals really want to do in their spare time. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

There will always be some popular leisure activities in a period of

disappear when a new trend comes along. I totally agree the assertion that hobbies reflect changing fashions rather than our true interests. The

reason for

that is

most of the people like to choose hobbies to make friends rather than real interests to themselves. If you have a special

that you can't even find a group in real life, loneliness and half-measures tend to be an

result.

Therefore

, we may pretend to like a popular

for making a group of friends.

For instance

for

watching basketball game, I may attempt to knowing the scores of the competition to join a conversation of boys in the class.

In addition

, popular interests always manifest a universal value and that influence the choice of hobbies. Generally, when we choose a

hobby we will

consider our personal image and the attitude of others. Can you remember the reason of learning guitar or piano? You may confess that you don't actually like to play these

instruments but

instruments, but

feel others will say it's cool that you can play the guitar.

On the other hand

, some cultures remain the value that girls are supposed to have some designated interests and people would be angry if you have an inappropriate leisure

hobby

. In conclusion, I stand the point that these popular habits are more like a reflection of that time rather than a true passion to us.

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

Money and time are the most valuable things for everyone in the world. This is why there are many discussions about benefits between each other. Some think that it is better to have more money than time and others believe in the opposite way. In my opinion, having more leisure time is much appropriate for me.

In Britain, when someone gets old they often go to live in a home with other old people where there are nurses to look after them. Sometimes the government has to pay for this care. Who do you think should pay for this care, the government or the family? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.
In Britain most of the times old-age people are shifted to old-age houses. In my opinion the expenditure incurred on the care of these people should be borne by their families because it was these old -age people who had been the bread-earners for their families for a long time. Now this is the time to pay them back. when these people were young, they raised their children, met all of their needs, care and supported their families in every possible way.
