Some people think that pupils should spend their leisure

On the contrary
Linking Words
, it can be counterproductive to force a child to
study
Use synonyms
all day, even in his free
time
Use synonyms
.
Firstly
Linking Words
, learning is a lifelong process. So, the
time
Use synonyms
one spends learning will never be limited. For that reason,
children
Use synonyms
should not be forced to
study
Use synonyms
when they have
time
Use synonyms
to relax.
Thus
Linking Words
, It is a fatal mistake to regard
children
Use synonyms
's non-educational
activities
Use synonyms
in their free
time
Use synonyms
as a waste of
time
Use synonyms
. Not every child has enough energy to
study
Use synonyms
constantly. And, having to
study
Use synonyms
too much may cause depression, tiredness and pressure for a child.
For instance
Linking Words
, in China, some
children

have psychological problems and issues with health due to the fact that the only thing they do is
studying

Secondly

, just learning, even during leisure

will definitely make it impossible for
children

to have good physical health because they do not get any

. Participating in physical activity plays a huge role (in what?), and it is
also

an important factor for
children

to be interested in learning as they have more energy and have

to release their stress and pressure.
In addition
Linking Words
, studying too much can deprive
children
Use synonyms
of the opportunity to learn essential life skills. In conclusion, I oppose the idea that
children

’s leisure

Also

, I would recommend parents control

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
