Coherence & Cohesion
Your essay presents a clear structure with an introduction, main body, and conclusion, which aids in the reader's understanding. However, to improve coherence, consider linking your paragraphs and ideas more smoothly with a variety of transitional phrases.
Coherence & Cohesion
You've nicely introduced and concluded your essay, which is commendable. To further enhance, ensure your conclusion succinctly summarizes the key points without introducing new information.
Task Achievement
You have focused on a central idea which aligns with the task question. However, expanding on the causes and solutions with a wider variety of examples and more detailed explanations could strengthen your argument.
Task Achievement
Your choice of solution is quite extreme (capital punishment or life sentence). Considering a wider range of solutions that are more realistic and humane could make your argument more persuasive and comprehensive.
Structure
You have structured your essay well with a clear introduction, body, and conclusion.
Content
You have identified corruption as a main cause, which is a relevant and strong point.

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
