People spend a lot of money on various things as they earn more money nowadays than before. Is it a positive or negative development?

It is indeed true that owing to better revenue people are accessible to purchase costly things they want which is not possible in the past. In my view, it is a positive trend as it enables people to live a luxurious life, but I

development
too as it increases electronic wastage on the earth. On the one hand, why I

as it improves the standard of living than before. To elucidate, earlier the income of the family was not enough to buy essential household items like

results in improving the standard of living.
For example
, in the recent article by Times of India reported that in India, the sales of electronic items is increasing every year by 15-20% as Indians are able to buy easily because of having good saving after monthly expenditure.
On the other hand

think spending cash on things like electronic gadgets is a negative trend to some extent. To elucidate, having iPhone laptop, iPad with advance features and applications is the trend nowadays, and good earning allows people to replace these things with a new one.
Hence

For example
, a recent survey in June 2020 by BBC news reported that there has been a 10% increase in the e-waste compared to

year due to an increase in the income of the household. In conclusion,
although
I agree spending money on some things is a positive

as spending money on electronic gadgets leads to a peak in e-garbage.

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
