Coherence and Cohesion
Ensure a clear logical structure by organizing your essay into well-defined paragraphs with clear topic sentences. Your essay shows an attempt at this but lacks a smooth transition between points.
Coherence and Cohesion
Use a variety of linking words and phrases to maintain flow within and between paragraphs. Aim to make the connections between ideas more explicit.
Task Achievement
Address the task fully by exploring both views presented in the prompt. You've provided reasons for the negative development but have not explored the positive aspects sufficiently.
Task Achievement
Develop your main points with specific examples. Your essay mentions general scenarios but can benefit from actual examples or data to support your statements.
Coherence and Cohesion
Conclude your essay effectively by summarizing the main points and restating your opinion. Your conclusion could be strengthened with a more decisive statement.

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
