Nevertheless

they are indeed more widespread than before, they are not going to replace texts completely. In

and its effect on human societies cannot be more evident. These phenomena are mostly imaged-based, meaning that their primary method of transferring ideas is through photographs or images.

For instance

, the website YouTube is only concerned with videos, and there are numerous channels on it which are focused on scientific and educational purposes. Alas,

although

these videos are great at entry level, they fail to cover more advanced topics since the creation of these types of content will not attract the great attention and viewer figures that these algorithms are based on.

Furthermore

Thus

On the other hand

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.

Located on the southern coast of West Java, Indonesia, facing the magnificent Indian Ocean, Pangandaran is a coastal town blessed with scenic landscapes and abundant fisheries potential. However, the city struggled to maintain its economic resources due to environmental degradation and its vulnerability to natural disasters, such as tsunamis and abrasion. These issues led me to join a community service project in Pangandaran organized by the student association in my department during my undergraduate studies at Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB), Indonesia. This project also collaborated with the Department of Oceanography ITB and local government.

Should education and healthcare be free of charge and funded by thr government or should it be the responsibility of the people to pay for these services? give reasons for your answer and relevant examples.
It is undeniable that a nation’s advancement is heavily reliant on the level of education and health of its populace. The increasing population and financial constraints often make it challenging for the government to fully bear the expenses of these essential services, including education and healthcare. I am of the opinion that a viable solution would be to share the financial burden between the government and the citizens.
