Some people think that advertising is so common that we no longer pay attention to it. Nowadays we are exposed to a lot of advertisements, which means that we cannot help seeing advertisements even if we do not want to see those, and most of them are nothing but unavoidable things to us. In many cases, a lot of advertisements rather backfire on the public.

For example

, when people are trying to get free news on the internet, we have to see advertisements involuntarily, and these advertisements are not persuasive but annoying and time-consuming.

Thus

this

advertisement cannot achieve the goal of companies.

On the other hand

, I agree with the opinion that advertising is extremely successful at persuading us to purchase things. The main reason is that people still acquire

information

from advertisements. From mobile phone in people’s hands to a huge screen on buildings, a lot of advertisements are giving people

information

related to products or services provided by companies.

Thus

, many people get

information

which is needed in buying something without any effort. Even if people exclude

this

information

and try to get new

information

in order to purchase what the people want to buy, they meet just other kinds of advertisements again and

then

depend on them.

This

shows that people cannot be free from advertisements.

In other words

, advertising is an effective way to make people buy what companies intend by advertising. Even though people tend not to heed advertisements due to the huge number of it, people cannot help depend on advertisements.

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

Some people believe that television is a powerful educational tool. Other people believe that television is nothing more than mindless entertainment and should be discouraged. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?
Television could become an effective tool to educate the people who watch it. While some other people think that television is only for leisure activities. I hold the view that television is one of the most powerful educational tools because it can reach the audience from urban to rural places and the content of the shows are under surveillance from the governments. This essay will explain the reasons why we need television as our educational tools.
