 developments, a lot of jobs and daily tasks that need body activity are done by machines and individuals have become less active.
On the other hand
, children’s active games have been replaced by computer games.
Hence
, societies are facing
obesity
 and its impacts on children and adults. There are,
however
, some solutions to help city dwellers cope with
this
 new phenomenon.
Firstly
, governments should work on some plans to aware people of the consequences of
obesity
 and courage them to eat more healthy meals and do some daily activities to improve their health conditions.
For instance
, free or cheap gyms and bicycles, for short distances, and
also
 some special programs for children to be more active should be prepared for societies’ members.
Thus
, governments can play an essential role in warning families about
obesity
’s drawbacks and providing programs to control it. To conclude, while
obesity
 and its disadvantages have become one of the growing problems that societies struggle with, governments are able to control
this
 phenomenon by informing people and families and providing facilities for them to be more active.

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
