The diagrams below are existing and proposed floor plans for the redevelopment of an art gallery.

The
first
picture shows the layout of an art
gallery
, and the
second
shows some proposed changes to the
gallery
space
. It is clear that significant changes will be made in terms of the use of floor
space
in the
gallery
. There will be a completely new entrance and more
space
for exhibitions. At present, visitors enter the
gallery
through doors which lead into a lobby.
However
, the
plan
is to move the entrance to the Parkinson Court side of the building, and visitors will walk straight into the exhibition
area
. In place of the lobby and office areas, which are shown on the existing
plan
, the new
gallery
plan
shows an education
area
and a small storage
area
. The permanent exhibition
space
in the redeveloped
gallery
will be about twice as large as it is now because it will occupy the
area
that is
now used for temporary exhibitions. There will
also
be a new room for special exhibitions.
This
room is shown in red on the existing
plan
and is not currently part of the
gallery
.

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
