IELTS Writing Task 2: from ideas to paragraph
U
I always tell my students to plan ideas for their main body paragraphs. Let's look at
how to put some ideas together to make a paragraph. Here's the question:
The main reason people go to work is to earn money.
To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Ideas for one main paragraph:
•
agree that money is the main reason people work
•
people
look at salary first, they rarely take a salary cut
•
need to live,
pay bills, food etc.
•
look after our families, save for the future
•
otherwise, most people would
probably choose not to work
Full paragraph using the ideas above:
I agree that the majority of people work in order to earn money. Before taking any
other factors into account, it is normal to first consider the salary that a particular post
offers, and it is rare to hear of a person who happily takes a cut in
pay when beginning
a new job. We all need money to pay for our basic necessities, such as
accommodation, bills and food. Many adults also have families who
depend on the
wages they earn, and at the same time they are conscious of the need to save for the
future. If we no
longer needed money, I doubt most of us would choose to continue in
our jobs.
