 of government funds should be focused on
railways
. I personally agree with
this
 idea and things that are more important.
First
 of all, it is proven that travelling by train is safer than travelling by car,
therefore
, if
people
 travel more by train and less by car, the number of road accidents will decrease significantly.
This
 means that if the number of available
railways
 increased, more
people
 would have the chance of using safer means of transportation and

 would die because of road accidents.
Moreover
,
railways
 help travellers access a variety of places without feeling the need to use their personal cars.
This
 can be good for the environment since pollution produced by trains is much less than by cars.
Furthermore
, trains can carry more
people
 at the same time. You can help
people
 save both money and time because they are fast and definitely cause less than a trip by car.
Lastly
, during the past couple of decades, the focus on building and reconstruction of
roads
 has been a lot . There are
roads
 and highways everywhere but, there are fewer places connected to a sufficient network of
railways
. That's why it is important for the government to spend more money on trays
instead
 of
roads
. In conclusion, while
roads
 and road travels are important, I think raises are much more important and there are lots of improvements that need to be done

This
 is why I agree with
people
 who say that governments should spend more money on

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

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
