What are the pros and cons of adventurous sports ?

In recent times, a few statistics have shown that the inclination towards adventurous
sports
is increasing day by day. It is a debatable topic if we want to choose adventurous
sports
over anything else.
This
essay will discuss both the pros and cons of frequent adventure
sports
.
Firstly
,
sports
such
as bungee jumping, paragliding, and skydiving are mostly seen as 'go-to' because a lot of youngsters prefer them. These activities are mostly done to be flashy on social media platforms like Instagram, Facebook, and Snapchat. When uploading a video or pictures of these
sports
, a lot of attention is attracted to them.
However
, seeking out these
sports
should not obscure the purpose of pursuing them.
Secondly
, there are many instances where
people
's
lives
were at risk, and some
people
lost their
lives
in the process of pursuing them.
For example
, in 2005, skydiving in Toronto had a bad ending, and 15
people
lost their
lives
. Their families mourned for the lost
lives
, and the place had to be permanently shut down. Despite
such
incidents, many skydiving
sports
areas are still open, and
people
continue to do them. To minimise all the dangers in adventurous
sports
, the government should take proper measures like issuing tickets or fining sponsors who do not follow the guidelines.
However
, more awareness can be brought to the public by conducting effective social campaigns. These
sports
are always chosen to overcome inner fears. We can always encourage
people
who have clarity on why they are opting for these
sports
and how safely they can do them, which will always shift their stress levels.

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
