Band 6.5

These days, more and more people move away from the area where they were born and brought up when they become adults. Do the advantages of this development outweigh the disadvantages?

#people #move #area #adults #development
In the current situation,
people
 migrate from the
place
 of birth to the
place
 of adulthood. I think that the advantages of
this
 phenomenon outweigh the disadvantages for the following two reasons.
However
, I realize that there may be some problems related to
this
 development.
First
 of all,
people
 who have been in contact with different countries or different parts of the world will
also
 feel more comfortable with different religions, cultures, dialects and eating habits.
This
 will give you a more international perspective and encourage compassion and tolerance for others. These
people
 will be more "global" in their thinking, which is exactly what is needed in all areas of life.
In addition
, by walking,
people
 can adopt best practices in education, technology, policy development, finance, etc. in other fields.
This
 knowledge can be used to improve one's hometown.
For example
,
people
 born in remote villages may move to larger cities after completing their education to find better job prospects.
In addition
, to increase income, the person can
also
 bring technical knowledge (
such
 as mobile data) to benefit other villagers who may not know these things.
However
, if more and more
people
 settle in other areas, a population explosion is possible in a particular
place
. In
this
 case, due to the high concentration of population living in a region, competition for basic needs
such
 as

 will intensify. Another problem is the "brain drain".
This
 can happen when a particular person settles in another area after spending a lot of time and resources in another area. In general, the migration of
people
 from the
place
 of birth and growth to the area where they grew up is mainly a positive development, but it has certain limitations.

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
