Space
 travel is considered by some to be a waste of authority resources,
while
 others consider it essential for the development of mankind. I totally agree with
this
 opinion because
space
 trips really cost a lot of money.
However
, it can lead humans to avoid extinction. The authority does not need to conduct these rides since it spends a lot of money and it is only a waste of the ministry fund. There are two reasons for that opinion.
Firstly
,
this
 kind of project needs a huge amount of funds, especially for the research and development of technology.
For instance
, Elon Musk who is the CEO of SpaceX spent US $74 Million for only research and development for these travel projects.

due to

Secondly
, conducting

 research can help us to find another place
that is
 appropriate for humans to stay. All in all, I believe that a tour 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
