some people want government to spend money on life on other planets, however, others think it is a waste of public money when the earth has so many problems. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

The phenomenon of
government
expenditure on researching other planets has aroused wide concern among various circles.
Although
there are good arguments in favour of the development of universe technology, I personally believe that there are other practical fields that are more worth to invest. On one hand, exploring the universe would be a great opportunity to find another place
that is
suitable for human habitation. Because of human activities and the continued raising population, the earth is no longer healthy for humanity. Finding new planets is important to all
people
.
For example
, a part of
people
moving to another planet to live will reduce the consumption of resources and carbon dioxide emissions.
This
will in turn lead to earth having time to rest and recover.
Moreover
, even if new habitats are not found, there is still a chance to discover new resources during the journey of searching.
Therefore
, some
people
think that we should support
government
funding in
this
field.
On the other hand
, some
people
argue that
government
should spend money to solve the cause of the problems on the earth since the existing problem will show up again in the future even if we move to a new planet.
For instance
, our transportation in the modern world requires a lot of non-recycled energy.
This
is one of the main reasons why so much undetectable weather in recent years.
As a result
, the development of new energy is one of the main trends that
government
should be supported to alleviate the existing issue. Under
this
line of thinking, exploration of new planets seems can benefit to all
people
.
However
, I still believe that resolving the existing is the better way for mankind.

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
