introduction conclusion present
Your introduction is clear and sets up the argument well. However, be careful with minor language errors such as 'As the technology is developed fast'. It would be better to say 'As technology develops rapidly'.
supported main points
Your main points are generally clear and logically structured, but they could be better supported with more specific examples and reliable data. Try to dig deeper to provide a stronger foundation for your arguments.
logical structure
Be cautious with your language choice and sentence structure. For example, 'Otherwise, some people say that governments will get more advantages with this' could be rephrased to 'On the other hand, some believe that this trend offers more advantages to the government'.
complete response
While you do address both sides of the argument, you could make your stance clearer and ensure that both advantages and disadvantages are covered more comprehensively.
logical structure
Try to vary your sentence structures and make use of linking words to improve the coherence and flow of your essay. Phrases like 'On the contrary', 'Moreover', 'In addition' can help in making arguments more cohesive.
introduction conclusion present
Your introduction and conclusion are both present and provide a good framework for your argument.
complete response
The essay does cover the main aspects of the task, presenting arguments and counterarguments effectively.

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
