#society #people #situation
In recent times, a large number of
people
 living for long years, and
this
 situation has some merits and demerits,
while
 In my opinion, the disadvantages are more than the benefits. On the one hand, there are some advantages for live longer. One of them is lots of experienced
people
. To put on another way, a human who lives long years gets manifold knowledge through the experience gained in
life
 .
This
 means
people
 are facing different types of issues throughout their
life
, which is led them to gain
life
 -experience. And their knowledge and experience share to the next generation.
For example
, if died scientists will live in
this
 time, and they find many things for society.
Therefore
 a main benefit is to get experienced
people
 for the world.
On the other hand
,
this
 situation has some drawbacks
along with
 merits.one major demerit is overpopulation.
In other words
, increasing the number of
people
 who live longer will lead to the growth of the population. Population growth leads to many problems
such
 as poverty, lack of facilities and so on. Another major disadvantage is health problems.
People
 who live longer must face some health issues because of their age. There is an age limit for
people
's
life
, if they cross it, they face severe problems in their
life
.
thus
 these are the drawbacks of living longer. In conclusion, in modern days, most
people
 live longer and
this
 situation has some merits and demerits ,
however
 in my opinion, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages.

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
