content

. I believe it is more beneficial to have
pictures
 for the reasons that even uneducated
people
 can able to understand and
also
 it is more attractive.
Firstly
, visual representation helps illiterate society
also
 to understand the idea behind the
news
.
Thus
 it provides a clear understanding for all kinds of

 idea of the overall

.
For example
, old
people
 who do not know how to read and small children can understand the contents of these
stories
.
Moreover
,
pictures
 are more appealing. There is a saying that
pictures
 speak more than words. Many
news
 or
stories
 attract their readers or viewers by giving good
pictures
.
This
 generates the curiosity of the public towards the
news
.
For instance
, a recent survey that 65 per cent of the
people
 in the UK will read the newspaper details based after seeing the
images
. In conclusion, adding more visuals to the
news

 removes the bias on literacy,
hence
 all groups of

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
