Extreme sports such as sky diving and skiing are very dangerous and should be banned. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this view?

✨ Do you want to improve your IELTS writing?

In recent years, extreme sports have become an increasingly popular activity, and some people believe that these sports are too dangerous and governments should prohibit them. I completely disagree with the idea that these sports should be banned.

To begin

Linking Words

with, so-called extreme sports are not as dangerous as many people think.

This

Linking Words

is because almost all sports involve some element of risk, and there should always be clear regulations and safety procedures to reduce the possibility of accidents.

Further

Linking Words

, people who take part in these risky sports are usually required to undergo various appropriate trainings to minimize the danger associated with them.

For instance

Linking Words

, anyone who wants to try sky diving needs to sign lessons with a registered club, and the one who tries solo dive, tends to be accompanied by an experienced professional.

Also

Linking Words

, the protective equipment and technology used these days from base jumping into water surfing is constantly improving safety.

Furthermore

Linking Words

, I think it is almost impossible and wrong to ban

such

games. The reason for

this

Linking Words

is that people have a right to spend their leisure time on their way, as long as they understand the risks. Indeed, politicians cannot stop us from enjoying ourselves.

Moreover

Linking Words

, it seems impossible to make a law for banning these sports, and enforce people to adhere it. As many of these sports are being practiced far away from the reach of authorities. Even I cannot imagine that police being called to stop people from parachuting off mountain face or surfing on an isolated beach. In conclusion, I would argue that people should be free to enjoy these extreme sports as long as they can understand the risk involved in them, and take the appropriate precautions.

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

Some people think the increasing business and cultural contact between countries brings many positive effects . Others say it causes the loss of national identities.Discuss both of these views and give your own opnion.
With the rise of nationalism throughout the world, the pros and cons of international interactions have become a hot topic again. In my opinion, various kinds of contact between countries significantly promote the development of technology and, contrary to general preconceptions, intensify the awareness of national identities.

Although parents are responsible for raising a child, outside influence plays a key role in their development. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Over the past few decades, there has been a common belief that despite parental accountability for the upbringing of their offspring, other factors play a more crucial role in these children’s development. The writer of this essay, in light of this, is entirely convinced by this school of thought on account of formal academic education given by teachers along with real-life skills through outdoor activities.

Some scientists think that there are intelligent life forms on other planets and messages should be sent to contact them. Other scientists think that this is a bad idea and would be dangerous. Discuss both view points and give your opinion
The presence of alien species on other planets has been an interesting topic since decades. Many scientists are curious to know more about them, and believe that human beings should try to communicate with them, however, on the other hand, many advocate against it and believe that it could be dangerous for mankind. Regardless, I believe that alien species might be more intelligent and advanced than us, which might help us to develop at a much faster rate, hence, efforts should be made to establish communication with them.

Schools should teach children good behaviour and introduce ideas of "right" and "wrong". It should not only be left to parents. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
It hard to deny that school plays an impotant role in teacing children good beahviour and introduce ideas of "right" and "wrong". Therefore, such an opinion is gengerated that school should take responsbility for the moral education. However, such a statement suffers from both logical and factual fallacies, and it should be exaimed meticulously. As far as the values of children, family relationship and educational effectiveness are concerned, I strongly hold that parents should attend moral education.
