task achievement
While the essay addresses the topic, the stance is not consistently clear. You are advised to express your position more explicitly throughout the essay and especially in the introduction and conclusion. Develop your main points by providing more detailed explanations and by exploring all parts of the prompt thoroughly, which includes discussing not only why there is a prevalence of bad news but also engaging with the suggestion about banning such news.
coherence cohesion
The essay lacks a clear paragraph structure that logically organizes ideas. Begin with a clear topic sentence for each paragraph, followed by supporting sentences and a concluding sentence. Use cohesive devices more effectively to link ideas and paragraphs. Your essay should flow naturally from one point to the next, ensuring coherence through transitions and topic consistency. Consider revising sentences that do not directly contribute to the main topic, as they can distract from the overall cohesion of the essay.
