the traditional

will be lost as both traditional

and

do not go hand in hand. In

essay, we will discuss the reasons for

opinion and I will give my opinion about the same. With the growth of
technology

and the ocean of information available on the internet,
people

have started looking for logic before following traditional cultural practices. Superstitious practices have stopped due to growing awareness among the

.
Technology

has eased our lives so much that most of the cultural practices that were followed in the past at the time of marriages, if of no relevance now.
For instance

, in India, earlier, when a girl used to get married and move to her husbands' place, her parents gave her enough money and gold for her security as back

custom need not be followed.
Therefore

On the other hand

, they try to imitate them and celebrate festivals and follow traditions like they do.
For instance

prayed, met friends and families, shared sweets and good wishes.
On the contrary

, now festivals are celebrated in two ways either by going on exotic holidays or by partying with friends and families. To cut long story short, I completely assent with the view that

will be a by-gone as

keeps on developing.

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
