Contemporary
children
spend more
time
watching TV or playing PC
games
rather than playing real
games
with their peers outdoor.
As a result
, these
children
may have different
health
and communication problems.
This
essay will discuss some bad consequences which is could be caused by the above-mentioned situation and provide a possible solution to it. The
first
obvious consequence of that issue is problems with
health
because long sitting may damage spine muscles and could lead to some stomach disease. It is proved, that for a good
health
condition each individual has to do outdoor sport’s activities. Especially
this
statement is true for a young growing organism. The
second
problem, which could happen, is different interaction matters because during these leisures
children
do not have the opportunity to talk with other people.
For instance
, according to some researchers,
children
under 3 years old, who had watched cartoons too much, started to talk a few months later than their peers, who had not done so.
Thus
, without really speaking contact, sports exercises, and spending
time
with other people,
children
may face different issues in mental and
health
levels. One of the possible solutions to
this
issue is to restrict the
time
, which
children
spent on that kind of leisure by law.
For instance
, the China government has allowed playing computer
games
or watching TV only 90 minutes a day. Owners of computer
games
and parents could be fined if authorities know about the violation of
this
law.
Furthermore
, China government has reduced after-school tutoring for
children
six and seven years old, in order to increase
time
for sports activities. These measures might be effective and could bring positive results in the future. Taking the above-mentioned into account, it must be pointed out that a described tendency could lead to various problems in
children
's lives, which must be solved at a government level.

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
