Moreover

 which can lead to the instability of society. As an illustration, there

In addition
, I believe that unlimited

 may make people become accustomed to negativity. We are exposed on a regular basis to stories about war,
crime
, revenge in
movies
 and on other mass media. In my opinion,
such
 repeated exposure gradually desensitizes people, and we become more cynical about the world and have lower empathy and less kindness.
For example
, constantly watching excessive

 or shooting battles can lead to less sympathy that if we see a real shooting incident happen in our life, we would feel numb and not blame the perpetrator.
This
 could lead to a higher

 rate. In conclusion, I think it is necessary for governments to control the
violence
 showing in mass media as a way to reduce
violence
 in society.

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
