As you are asked about 'positives' or 'negatives' it is like an 'advantage /
disadvantage' essay. However, as you are asked
your opinion about whether
it is positive or negative, you don't have to discuss both sides, though you
can.
There are two main
ways you could set out your body paragraphs. Here are
some
possibilities, assuming that you think the development is positive.
Example One:
Body 1: Disadvantages
Body 2: Advantages
So in this one above, if you have one main reason it's
negative and one that
it's positive, you could place each in a separate body paragraph.
You could then state in the conclusion (and introduction if you want) what
your opinion is.
But if you want to, you could focus you
body paragraphs more on the
opinion you have, as below.
Example Two:
Body 1: Disadvantage
Body 2: First Advantage
Body 3: Second Advantage
Example Three:
Body 1: First Advantage
Body 2: Second Advantage
Body 3: Third Advantage
In this third one, reasons have just been found to say it's positive. That's ok
as you are
not told to discuss both sides, so you can choose to just support
your opinion.
Now take a look at the model answer for this IELTS age discrimination at
work essay. Which paragraph pattern does it use?
