coherence cohesion
Ensure that the essay has a clear introduction, body paragraphs, and a conclusion. Each paragraph should start with a clear topic sentence and follow with supporting sentences that back up the main point.
coherence cohesion
Develop your main points with a mix of general statements and specific examples. While your essay has main points, it lacks detailed examples to illustrate them, which could strengthen your argument.
task achievement
Remain focused on the prompt throughout the essay and make sure every paragraph contributes to addressing the question. Avoid going off-topic or discussing irrelevant information.
coherence cohesion
Use a variety of linking words to better connect ideas between sentences and paragraphs. There was some repetition and underuse of cohesive devices that would have improved the logical flow.
task achievement
Pay attention to grammatical accuracy and work on reducing the number of errors in sentence structure, tense usage, and article usage, which sometimes hinder communication of your ideas.
task achievement
Expand on your examples with more depth. Merely stating that wealthier people can pay fines is not enough; explaining how this fails to deter repeat offenses would be more convincing.

Your opinion
