As countries develop, more and more people buy and use their own cars. Do the advantages of this trend for individuals outweigh the disadvantages for the environment?

Today, computers and computers replace human labour, if there are good advantages in
this
, I believe there are still disadvantages. It is evident that humans have benefited in many ways by using machines. Time-saving can be seen as the major benefit. To exemplify, by using electronic devices, like a washing machine, vacuum cleaner, dishwasher at home, individuals can save their precious time;
thus
, they can spend quality time with their children. It is
also
possible to say that machine can help in doing the work precisely.
For example
, because machines job more accurately than humans, more work can be accomplished using home equipments like the mixer grinder and juice maker.
On the other hand
, these increase used on electronic goods brings itself high energy consumptions that lead to the rise in environmental pollution.
Firstly
, people have become dependent on the machines. It has been observed that, compared to earlier times, more amount of energy is consumed these days in doing house chores.
Therefore
, it is a serious problem which needs to be addressed.
Secondly
, nowadays, people are in bad shape and face health issues owing to the utmost use of these automatic machines.
For instance
, earlier people were fit as a fiddle as they used to do all jobs at home manually, but, at the present reduction in those routine exercises has led to an increase in obesity problem around the globe.

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
