Task 2: Some people think that young people should be required to do unpaid work helping people in the community. Do the advantages outweigh the disadvantages?

Nowadays, the young should volunteer to help people in the
community
. Despite some drawbacks of
this
 decision. I think that the benefits are more significant. On the one hand, there are a number of major disadvantages of working in the

On the other hand
, I argue that there are some obvious advantages that would make it better not to volunteer to help people in the
community
.
Firstly
,
this
 allows the young to see the various aspects of life when they realize that many people around them do not have the basic necessities of life, they will learn to count their blessings. These activities help them gain insight into the lives of the poor,

Consequently

Secondly
, volunteering is a great opportunity to acquire valuable

 experience. They can mention these stents in their resume when it is time to apply for a job.
In addition
, the young who have done some kind of

 are more likely to get hired than someone who has absolutely no experience

 volunteering. In conclusion,
although
 the young might find it difficult to
work
 in the
community
 without being unpaid. I believe that the merits of
this
 trend do outweigh those drawbacks.

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
