task response
The introduction does not clearly state the opinion on the topic. The conclusion is weak and does not summarize the main points effectively.
coherence and cohesion
The essay follows a logical structure, but the ideas are not always well-connected. There is a lack of clear progression of ideas and linking words.

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
