Too much money is wasted on repairing old buildings that should be used to knock them down and build new ones. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?

There is an opinion that
instead
of spending a lot of
money
on repairing old
buildings
we can destroy them and construct new objects. I absolutely disagree with
this
statement, because some old
buildings
have a cultural value
also
they may be a landmark of places. The
first
reason why I do not support
this
suggestion is losing of history and culture. Some old objects may have cultural and historical importance for people. To give a clear example, if we do not care about old
constructions
,
such
as The Red Square or Big Ben the
next
generation cannot totally know the cultural heritage of past generations.
Thus
it is important to invest
money
in the safety of old
buildings
. In ,addition old
constructions
are one of the most important factors of tourism. A huge number of tourist travel in some countries because of seeing old
constructions
.
For instance
, most people visit Turkestan because there is a mavzolee of A. Yassaui. In ,
fact
Add an article
the fact
a fact
show examples
the government of Kazakhstan spend millions of tenge per year to save
this
construction. In conclusion, a big number of
money
is wasted on re-establishing of old
buildings
although
we nay build on
this
money
new and modern
constructions
. I do not support
this
idea, because it can lead to other problems.
For example
, we can lose our connection to the past as well as destroying the old
buildings
could decrease the income of tourism.

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
