Big sporting activities like the Olympics Games and World Cup are being held very seldom, and people from different countries anticipate these events with mammoth excitement. Though it brings entertainment and numerous benefits, there are those who say that it is a waste of money,

time

and effort. In my opinion, the benefits in the economy and the

friendship

being built from

such

events justify the number of resources being poured on it. Some say that organizing these events requires a long

time

and facilities are difficult to arrange. The Olympics and the world cup are held every four years and a host country is being chosen eight years before the scheduled date, and from that

time

preparation begins. Just like the world cup in the year 2022, Qatar was chosen as a host as early as the year 2016, and since

preparation started and still going on up to now.

Furthermore

However

, sports activities have a positive impact on the economy and

friendship

among nations. It contributes revenues not only to the host country but

also

to other countries. Some companies advertise and pay huge amount

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
