Nowadays, there are still some countries around the world, where the

 exists. Some people believe that
this

 is immoral and should be replaced by
life

 in
prison
Use synonyms
. I acknowledge their opinion but I have a solid position that in some cases the
death

penalty
Use synonyms
 is the only right decision for judges.
To begin
Linking Words
 with, when murderers commit their crimes, they take the lives of their
victims

 and,
therefore

, take happiness, freedom and love.
Thus
Linking Words
, I believe that it is unfair and immoral for the
victims

 to give their murderers a chance for
life

 even though in

.
Moreover
Linking Words
, some of these prisoners have a chance to avoid
life

 in
prison
Use synonyms
due to

 good advocates.
Hence
Linking Words
, they leave a chance for happiness, freedom and love for themselves but not for the individuals whom they killed.
For example
Linking Words
, the
death

penalty

 is illegal in Kazakhstan,
consequently
Linking Words
, if someone murdered poor children he or she would be guilty but still alive, which, in my opinion, is unacceptable.
In addition

,
victims

' parents and friends would live forever with an understanding that a murderer is still alive. In fact, the closest people would suffer for the rest of their lives because of

 injustice. As long as we have
life

 as the strongest punishment in some countries, justice for parents and friends of

 never exists.
For instance

, in the USA in 2022, the advocates ended up with
life

 for the murderer who killed 17 individuals.
As a result

 of

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:

  • In conclusion
  • To conclude
  • To summarize
  • Finally
  • In a nutshell
  • In general
