In a number of countries, some people think it is necessary to spend large sums of money on constructing new railway lines for very fast trains between cities. Others believe the money should be spent on improving existing public transport.

In many administrative regions, some individuals hold the opinion that the government should investigate high-speed railway construction, while some claim that the present transportation infrastructure should be improved a lot. My opinion is the government should pay more attention to connecting more metropolia by building new railway routes.
Firstly
, building more high-speed train routes contribute a lot to economic development. The time for transporting goods has been greatly shortened, which makes more business possible.
For example
, the seafood only produced in some coastal downtown can be transported to more remote places in a short time aided by high-speed railways, which helps the development of local industries.
Furthermore
, building high-speed railway lines boost communication and tourism. People have a stronger willingness to visit some beautiful but distant attractions, which not only benefits the communication of individuals from different areas but
also
contribute a lot to local tourism.
On the other hand
, perfecting existing transportation systems is beneficial for citizens. People living in the city can feel more comfortable and convenient when taking public transport.
However
,
this
action may lead to inequalities in society.
For example
, people who live in someplace may think they are treated unfairly since their metropolis have not been connected to other regions by high-speed railways while the government investigate more money to improve those who already have high-speed railways.
In addition
, the economic and population gap between these metropolia may widen. Overall,
although
promoting existing public transportation has advantages, I believe building more and more highways is a better choice.

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
