Some people think that success is the best measure for intelligence, while others think that intelligence can be measured in other ways. What is your opinion?

Some people believe that success is the main way to measure brilliance,
while

others think that it can be shown in other ways. In my opinion, the first reason for success is your intellectual opportunities, but
secondly

, it is family finances.
This
Linking Words
is because a person who really has a wish to study without finance, despite his abilities, will achieve great heights through perseverance, and a person who was born in a high-class family, like in a family of a popular person or a politician, always has a road to success.
Firstly
Linking Words
, intelligence includes many abilities, not only connected with career or money. Some people are very good at biology or math; since childhood, they have had one dream and devoted their whole life to it. They study all day and all night for free education, and in the end, achieve their dream. Money is not useful in all situations. It alone cannot buy knowledge and perseverance.
For instance
Linking Words
, Elon Musk was not from a rich family, and his parents were not popular. He obtained everything on his own, despite having autism. Nowadays, he is one of the smartest people in the world.
On the other hand

, there are many situations when a child is from a popular family, and after a

, becomes famous without any effort. At least, these children do not always become like their parents,
that is

, deputies, politicians, or actors. Having already gained popularity, they move into other areas.
However
Linking Words
, many follow in their parents’ footsteps, but the public rarely accepts them when comparing them to their parents.
For example
Linking Words
, Russian actress Julia Peresild — her daughter
also

went into acting, but the public does not accept her,
while
Linking Words
Donald Trump’s son is popular and adored by the public without any effort. In my view, I hope everyone achieves what they want, regardless of their financial situation. Everyone deserves more. Intelligence is not measured only by knowledge, but
also
Linking Words
by the luck of the family you were born into.

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
Topic Vocabulary:
  • measure
  • intelligence

  • problem-solving
  • adaptability
