Around the world today, there is an increase in the number of people which has led to individuals being homeless, many are of the opinion that new communities be built to accommodate everyone while others suggest the towns be reconstructed. In

this

essay, I will be looking at the pros and cons of constructing fresh settlements in the state.

To begin

with, there are numerous suggestions to how to solve the housing challenge caused by the increase in population, but one that has been in practice is the giving of new towns in the county side as

this

would create more room for those that are homeless.

For example

, the Nigerian federal capital is overcrowded so the government created other settlements in the outskirts of the state thereby bringing accommodation for all resulting in meeting the basic needs of man.

However

, irrespective of the advantages that the construction of new settlements brings to the people, it

also

has its drawbacks that cannot be overlooked.

This

includes

firstly

, deforestation as building new shelter homes would lead to the cutting down of trees and forests that usually serve as a means of agricultural benefits and source of food.

For instance

in Bayelsa, the making of new areas brought about the clearing of farms which resulted in hunger in the land.

Secondly

this

effort will predispose the atmosphere to unfavourable weather conditions as the trees we

protect the soil from erosion and

also

absorb harsh chemical substances. A case scenario is the Australian global warming challenge that was linked to being caused by the hike in the falling of forest tress predisposing the people to acid rain and other harmful conditions. In conclusion, overcrowding in many cities has been faced with the challenge of limited houses, in as much as the advantages of erecting new buildings are much, its drawbacks should not be neglected so as to create a balance in society.

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:

To summarize

Some people think all university student should study whatever they like. Others believe that they should only be allowed to study subjects that will be useful in the future, such as those related to science and technology. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
There is a debate between people who believe that all university students should be allowed to study any major or minor they want to, while the controversial group considers that they should study only those subjects that will find a practical use in the future. It is obvious that every person has their own path and career and they have all rights to choose any field they want to research. However, if more students choose an irrelevant subject, they will have less experience and knowledge in their professional work. Personally, I tend to think that students are free to choose subjects in the educational establishements.
