Band 7.5

In the future, people may no longer be able to pay for things in shops using cash. All payments may have to be made by card or using phones. Do you think this will happen one day? Why do you think some people might not be happy to give up using cash?

It is true that in the near future, the new generation of online
payments
 will be replaced by the old one.
While
 some people are unhappy with
this
 futuristic method, I personally believe that because of many significant improvements in advanced
technology
, it would be definitely happening. On the one hand, no one can ever deny the significance of advanced
technology
 in
this
 century.
In addition
, we are living on the cutting edge of
technology
 which means that the majority of shops and businesses are connected to cyberspace.
Moreover
, thanks to the new generation of advanced
technology
, most modern shops tend to use the new method of
payment
.
Furthermore
,
according to
 the latest figures released by government authorities, the rate of requests for new methods of
payment
 is sharply increasing.
Thus
, it can be said that operating
payment
 by smartphones and online applications will be occurring as soon as possible.
On the other hand
, it is widely accepted that belong the elderly, using cash
payments
 has a significant role in our world. To put it more simply, they believe that cash
payments
 will be not disappeared. In fact, they have a problem with modern lifestyle which means that they do not know about the ABC of
technology
. From
this
 point of view, the government authorities should legislate more money to teach people who are illiterate about cyberspace.
As a result
, in terms of important improvements in high
technology
, they should change their mind and learn about items. In conclusion,
although
 using cash
payment
 is still alive in most countries, I think that the new way of online
payments
 in the context of cyberspace would be faster and safer than the old method.

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
