4.Scientist found that most crimes are committed by people who lack education. Some people think that the best way to reduce the crime rate is to provide prisoners with education because it will help them find a job when they leave prison. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Statistics show that poor literacy skills are closely related to a high incidence of illegal behaviour. Many believe that the way to reduce these behaviours is by training inmates
while
 they are still in prison so that they can return to work once released. Personally, I agree with
this
 because it helps to rehabilitate them.
However
, other reforms suggest that much of their psychological state remains unchanged.
This
 article will clarify the viewpoints of both sides and present evidence to support their respective arguments.
On the other hand
, the education of outlaws masks their recidivism.
In other words
, the training process prepares individuals for real-life situations and helps prevent future criminal activity.
For example
, a recent study by Oxford University found that four out of five defendants who excelled in civic education went straight into employment after serving their sentences.
As a result
, communities are safer, and local governing bodies have reduced the state's budget allocation for prisons.
Moreover
,
such
 measures are popular in privileged countries. Psychological behaviour in prisons,
on the other hand
, is very difficult to influence.
Due to
 the high levels of mental illness and instability, the authorities face great resistance to managing it. Dismal data from numerous surveying entities,
for example
, shows that only a quarter of all incarcerated people worldwide would not re-offend if they were well-educated.
Therefore
, investing public money in criminals is a waste of financial resources for which the populace must pay. All in all, despite some initial reluctance from bandits,
this
 approach is the most optimistic and effective way to integrate them into society. So, I still agree with that statement.
In addition
, I recommend that the Earth World regime implement measures concerning Earth's security, peace, and economic growth.

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
