Animals have become an inevitable part of human’s life either in direct or indirect way. Pets have been considered as family members by many.
This
type of relation has both pros and cons, which I intend to discuss in the subsequent paragraphs.
To begin
with, not only pets are good companion of humans, but
also
considered as a stress buster. Indeed, in
this
hectic era where most of the family members are busy in their work and hardly have time to spend with other family members,
then
having pets aids individuals to surmount that ambience as an individual could feel the presence of someone who is caring and adorable. Not only
this
, dog is considered as the most loyal companion to his master in every circumstance, even in the problematic situation and he tries to protect his master from danger.
However
, there are some intricacies owing to have a family like relation with animals.
Firstly
, having connections with animals is not hygienic as it may prove hazardous to human health. To cite an example, if cleanliness is not maintained, it would lead to many diseases
such
as throat allergy, skin allergy, a stomach infection and many more.
Moreover
, treating animals as a part of the family would decrease interaction with other family members, thereby weakening the bond among family members. To conclude,
although
having a good relationship with animals has both pros and cons, yet in my opinion, it is more prominent to have a good connection with them in terms of considering them as good companions, stress buster and loyal.

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
