There has been quite an obvious discussion around the topic of purchasing goods. It seems to be that a lot of people decide to go shopping at a shopping mall rather than the local trading centre. I believe that it is a negative for development and

 a buyer can buy everything they need just in one place.
For example
, younger persons in Thailand usually shop in malls where there is cooler air as they provide air-conditioners rather than markets that are open-air.
As a result
, a large number of owners of small shops have to shut down as they cannot face financial issues.
On the other hand
, it is worth pointing out that correcting items from local communities would be enjoyable, relaxing and healthy.
This
 is based on the fact that most of the products in local markets are grown or made by sellers which could be fresher and non-chemical than large supermarkets.

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

  • Summary
  • Restatement of thesis
  • Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

  • In conclusion
  • To conclude
  • To summarize
  • Finally
  • In a nutshell
  • In general
