It is true that in some nations, governments are encouraging factories and
companies
 to transfer to remote rural outside urban areas. In my opinion,
although
 there are some drawbacks, I would argue that there are more benefits. On the one hand, there are some certain positive aspects of moving industries and businesses in the city to the countryside. The
first
 advantage is that if factories and
companies
 relocate into the countryside, it will help mitigate environmental issues
such
 as water pollution, air pollution and so on. because

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
