Some people believe that it is best to accept a bad situation, such as an unsatisfactory job or a shortage of money. Others argue that it is better to try and improve such situations. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

It is debated that accepting an unsatisfactory
situation
is a better choice than attempting to improve it.
While
there may be some benefits to admitting awful circumstances, I believe that it is necessary and a better option to make some improvements. Some people think that it is beneficial for them to just tolerate their current bad
situation
for several reasons. Choosing not to make changes to the current
situation
allows them to have an easier
life
.
For example
, they don't need to worry about what they need to do to make a change, to put extra effort into working on improving the
situation
.
In addition
, they may think it is risky to change the bad phase that they are going through. They may try to use an incorrect method to mess up the
situation
even more.
On the other hand
, some optimistic people consider that attempting to change the
situation
is a better choice for these reasons.
Firstly
, by improving the
situation
,
such
as unsatisfactory working conditions, they can live a
life
with happiness as they are able to commit to the things they truly enjoy doing.
Secondly
, they may believe that aiming for a better
life
should be everyone's goal or meaning of
life
, if humans don't try to pursue a better
life
, there is no meaning in living.
For instance
, there is a Chinese saying stating that if you don't try, you do not exist. In conclusion, I would argue that it is better to try to make changes to a bad
situation
rather than admit it.

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
