Some people believe that nowadays we have too many choices. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

With the rapid development of technology and globalization, the world
people
now live in is flooded with all kinds of opportunities and challenges. All these opportunities and challenges lead to many
choices
, so I totally agree with the point that nowadays we have too many
choices
. We have too many
choices
in deciding what kind of life we'd want to live. Because we can choose what the money is used for, where to live, what to do and so on. Modern science and technology offer
people
various products and new experiences. What we can buy from the supermarket is much more than what we could buy in the past. We can spend our time in many amusement parks
instead
of staying at home with our families.
However
, too many
choices
in life are not always beneficial because
people
may get lost in the food of
choices
. As for the product,
people
may buy more than they want or get confused about which one to choose. When it comes to places to spend time,
people
may be more interested in entertainment venues, which may lead to the absence of family time.

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
