Many countries have invested a significant amount of time and money for exploring the universe because they believe that,

this

would lead to the discovery of new minerals or water which might be useful for humans. A section of people considers that investing in

space

research

does not help the society, whereas others are of the view that it would benefit the society. In my opinion, finding out more about the planets, the moon and the sun would not be good if there is no improvement in public services and amenities. Various planets and the moon might contain large deposits of unexplored minerals or water which are very useful for our development. These minerals would be useful in the field of medicine and in the manufacture of high end equipments.

However

, going to these distant planets requires huge investments in

space

travel, which require the support of the government.

For instance

, organisations like NASA and ISRO depend on the government for running their activities.

Furthermore

, private investment is limited, due to long period required to get back a decent return on investment.

Therefore

, countries have to set aside a part of their budget in order to fund their

space

research

dreams.

Although

, the state has to fund their

space

study dreams, they

also

have to ensure that, they build facilities which improve the life’s of their citizens.

For example

, Hospitals and Parks have to be funded by the state and these public amenities would require a significant budget allotment every year. Clearly, Countries have to strike a balance between public spending, which take care of the daily needs of their citizens and their spending in the field of

research

space

exploration which is a long term commitment. Exploring the universe requires long term support from the government. But the limited funds available should be split between

research

and to provide better public services. I think that, understanding other planets, the moon and the sun is beneficial, but public services which are necessary for the welfare of the local people should not suffer.

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

Today, many people do not know their neighbors in large cities. What problems does this cause? What can be done about this?
In these days, the relationship of people with their neigbours is so far in urban cities. The reason why this bad situation happened is that too much works must be done, so they do not have enough time to communicate to strangers around their houses. This problem can be solved by arranging timetable suitably.

Some people prefer to use energy-saving modes of transportation like hybrid cars and bicycles. Others prefer the usual mode of transportation like buses and trains because it is fast and efficient. Which mode of transportation do you prefer and why? Use specific reasons and details to support your answer.
People have different views about whether transportation should be in the form of energy-saving vehicles like electric cars and bicycles or like usual non-energy-saving vehicles like buses and trains. While public transportation can sometimes be helpful because it is fast and efficient. I believe that the usage of electric cars and bicycles should be encouraged because it benefits both the environment and human life.

Farmers within a country are often protected by tariffs - that is, special taxes on imported food. Such policies are necessary, and should be implemented wherever possible. To what extent do you agree with this?
In many countries, individuals from the farming industry are protected by special taxes that are really helpful. Some believe that those advantages should be implemented wherever possible. I wholeheartedly agree with this statement since it allows farmers to survive and helps the governments not to create any conflict with them.

Your English-speaking friend has asked for your help with a college project he/she is doing about celebrating New Year different countries. Write a letter to your friend. In your letter • say how important New Year is to people in your country • describe how New Year is celebrated in your country • explain what you like about New Year celebrations in your country
Thanks for asking my opinion about New Year celebration. In Taiwan, New Year is a huge holiday persented a new beginning of life. We get together with friends or family in New Year evening after work, sharing things happened recently when having dinner. Than everyone will gather to a hill or a place which have a clear sky to enjoy a fire work show. In order to build up connection between friends and family, therefore, no one will be left in New Year evening.
