due to
the fast pacing life, people may not be able to fulfil their responsibilities. To be more precise, a working couple has to depend on their parents
such
as in the situation of taking care of their child during the hectic work schedules make them dependent on the family.
In addition
, people do not have all skills, which are required for their daily lives.
For instance
, car maintenance and computer skills cannot be achieved as inborn, they need to be achieved by learning that particular skill.
However
, the world has changed a lot when compared to the olden days. Youngster have become more independent in choosing their educational sector without seeking any help from additional sources
such
as career guidance centres. Many students are travelling abroad for
further
education, which is evident that they are not relying on what they have.
Similarly
, when compared to ancient times, most families are nuclear which is another evidence that individuals are more independent. In my opinion, the public has become more independent and they are confident to carry out any liabilities individually.

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
