Ielts academic Writing Task 2IELTS Writing Task 2: 'nuclear power' topicIELTS Academic Writing Task 2 (Simon)IELTS Writing Task 2: 'nuclear power' topic
U
Following on from yesterday's listening lesson, here is a paragraph explaining some
of the benefits of nuclear power:
There are several benefits to building more nuclear power stations. Firstly, nuclear
power is a sustainable energy source, meaning that it can be used to produce
electricity without wasting limited natural resources like coal, oil or gas. Secondly,
nuclear power stations are cleaner than fossil fuel power stations, and could help to
reduce carbon emissions that cause global warming. With improvements in nuclear
technology, the risks of accidents are being reduced. As a result, many countries are
now considering nuclear power as a solution to high oil and gas prices, increasing
demand for electricity, and worries about pollution and climate change.
Read, analyse and use the paragraph:
•

to get you thinking about this topic:

Many parents have no idea how their children spend their time.
•
Friends, television and the Internet have become the main influences on
children’s behaviour.

Teenagers are influenced by peer pressure.
•
Juvenile delinquency is on the increase.
•
Parents should be more involved with their children’s upbringing.

Can you think of any more problems that children face, or suggest other solutions? Is
it the responsibility of parents, schools or governments to tackle these problems?
