TASK 2 WRITING TYPES
Let’s talk about the basic organization: the two most common essay types we have here. One of them is called THE ARGUMENT LED (EVIDENCE LED), and the other one is called THE THESIS LED . There are very clear differences and very clear similarities between these two types of essay. Let’s talk about them. The first rule is that they won’t tell you what type of essay to write. IELTS does not say “write the thesis led”. No, they will give you a topic, and you need to decide what the best way to organize the essay. There is some flexibility there. Sometimes, you can write the thesis led, or write the argument led. It’s up to you. But, right now, let’s understand the difference: Telegram - @officialieltsreality THE ARGUMENT LED (EVIDENCE LED) I want you to think about you are a judge in a court room . What you are going to do is you are going to hear an argument between two sides . How does it work? Well, you are going to give an introduction that contains some very clear information. First of all, your first sentence is going to introduce the topic . It is going to be a general statement , this is not having an opinion, but it is a general and true statement that tells the reader what the topic is? So you might say something like: “Nowadays, nuclear energy is a popular way to provide electricity.” “In modern society, playing video games has become very popular for teenagers.” Is that true? YES. So, when you read that sentence, you know “hey, this essay is about technology and teenagers” it tells the readers what the essay is going to be about. “In recent times, increasing numbers of students go abroad for university study.” Is that true? YES. Reading that context statement tells the reader this is what the essay is about. After you give the context to the reader , you need to introduce that there are two sides to this context . So, you could say something like “nowadays, going abroad for university study is increasingly popular. Some people think this brings a lot of disadvantages. However, other people claim it brings a lot of benefits” I just draw up a topic, and I’m bringing up that some people think this , other people think that . Yüklə 1,92 Mb. Dostları ilə paylaş:
