The easy way to ielts writing academic Module

Both views and some reasons are described to develop them thoroughly in the essay. The writer’s
opinion is also clearly stated in the introduction and the conclusion. The paragraphs are logically
developed. Relevant examples, topic-related vocabulary, collocations, and advanced expressions are
flexibly and appropriately practiced in various sentence structures, where ultimate cohesion is
apparent. This essay meets the requirement for a high band score. 
(Advanced vocabulary,
collocations, and expressions are underlined in this sample essay.)
Causes-effects essays
Causes-effects essays are quite common in IELTS writing task 2. In these essay types, candidates should outline
some causes of the introduced situation and discuss their relevant effects. Reading the topic carefully and
identifying what the questions ask for are crucial steps to take. Regarding the structure of the essay, following a 4-
paragraph structure is recommended. However, in organizing body paragraphs, there are two possibilities:
1
st
 style:
Body paragraph 1: two causes
Body paragraph 2: two effects
In this way of organization, causes are put in the first body paragraph, while there is an outline of their relevant
effects in the second body paragraph.
2
nd
 style:
Body paragraph 1: first cause + first effect
Body paragraph 2: second cause + second effect
In the second possible organization style, each body paragraph focuses on one cause and its relevant effect. Note
that as long as the questions are fully addressed, the essay organization does not affect the band score. However,
for a more transparent organization, the first style is recommended.
