Some people think that government should spend money on building new train lines,while others believe that improving public transport is more beneficial.Discuss both sides and give your own opinion.

There is an opinion that authorities should sponsor train lines development but
also
there is a contrary opinion that it is better to expand public transportation. In
this
essay, I am planning to observe both ideas and share my own.
First,
concerning developing
railways
I can say on the example of my own country. My country had been blockaded by its neighbouring enemy countries for more than thirty years. Now we are on the way to de-blockade,
hence
, I know how important to have connections with other countries. There are highly valuable benefits of having
railways
in many areas,
for example
, economic, and tourism ones. After spending significant amounts of money on reconstructing and expanding the chain of
railways
my country has gotten an opportunity to increase the level of its economy, and tourist threads are now more intensive as well. As far as improving public transport is concerned, it's
also
extremely important but I am not convinced that it is more profitable. If we mind busses, they can be used mostly in developing of tourism field. Obviously, they cannot support huge volumes of goods, food and other staff transportation as trains.
Therefore
, they cannot be used
instead
of trains. In conclusion, I believe that spending budget money on constructing new
railways
is more profitable than refining public transport.

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
