The population has been incredibly increasing these years around the world and now
this
trend is not only happening in the city but
also
in urban
areas
. Overpopulation has attracted
people
's attention as it caused several problems
such
as the shortage of education resources and
traffic
. In order to deal with

causes the
traffic
situation is getting worse and worse as the width of lanes in these
areas
can not support all of these vehicles. In order to solve
this
problem, improving public transportation is my suggestion. the government need to build more bus stop and train station in these places to meet
people
's demand for travelling.
Hence
,
people
are more willing to choose to use public transportation as it's cheap and convenient so the
traffic
situation can become better. In conclusion, the government need to pay more attention to overpopulation in urban
areas
as local residents are suffering from a variety of problems
such
as education and terrible
traffic
.
Therefore
, building more schools and a better public transport system is very necessary now.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

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

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

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
