Student answer (Band 6.0)

In certain stated present day, there is an mindset that anyone can do it in the arts-music, literature, acting, art etc. Consequently, people with no talent become rich and popular and real talent is not valued and appleades. I agree the given statement to a large extent. My inclination is elaborated in ensuring paragraph and relevant examples.

The foremost argument to justify my stand is that only talented and hardworking individuals should be appreciated and valued. This is because as they have abilities and skills to serve the nation in results they should be given rewards in terms of money and respect. We should encourage and empower such people to illustrate their real competencies to the world. Furthermore, the other reason to prove my point is arts such as music , literature, acting and arts are the ones that everybody cannot do them without efficient skills and talent. They require genuine flair to perform these arts activities with passion and enthusiasm. As they are relaxing and enjoyable so played by unskilled employer resulted in distraction and irritation to general public.

Moreover, real talented people are God gifted ones so they deserve special attention and support. There is need to raise the potential of these individuals in front of the community and aid them to become financially independent. On the contrary, some people counter claim the mentioned support. The foremost argument they do is there is an behavior that anyone can do art work and can become wealthy and famous. Due to the fact of currently we appreciate and favor preferred people by some famous personality and in return they request general public to support nepo kids.

To conclude the discussion, it can be said that despite the fact of favoring non skilled pupil, my reasons about prefer andrespect real talent are logically accepted.

Task Achievement / Task Response — Band 6.0

The response addresses the prompt and maintains a clear position throughout. However, the development of ideas is somewhat superficial. For instance, the argument regarding 'nepo kids' is introduced in the final body paragraph but remains underdeveloped and lacks a clear connection to the broader thesis. While the response covers the main points, the reasoning is occasionally repetitive, such as the repeated mention of 'money and respect'. To reach a higher band, you should provide more concrete examples or specific illustrations of how the 'anyone can do it' attitude manifests in current society, rather than relying on general assertions.

Coherence and Cohesion — Band 6.0

The essay is organized into paragraphs, and there is a logical progression of ideas. You use some cohesive devices, such as 'Furthermore', 'Moreover', and 'To conclude', which help guide the reader. However, some transitions feel mechanical, and the referencing is occasionally unclear, such as in the sentence 'As they are relaxing and enjoyable so played by unskilled employer resulted in distraction'. The connection between sentences could be smoother to improve the flow. Paragraphing is present, but the final paragraph is quite brief and does not fully synthesize the arguments presented earlier.

Lexical Resource — Band 5.5

The vocabulary is generally adequate for the task, but there are several instances of awkward word choice and non-standard collocations. For example, 'appleades' (likely meant 'applauded'), 'God gifted ones', and 'unskilled employer' (likely meant 'unskilled performer') impede clarity. While you attempt to use a range of vocabulary, the lack of precision in word choice limits the score. To improve, focus on learning the correct collocations for academic writing and ensure that your word choices are accurate in the context of the sentence.

Grammatical Range and Accuracy — Band 5.5

The essay contains a mix of simple and complex sentence structures, but there are frequent grammatical errors that occasionally make the text difficult to follow. Issues include subject-verb agreement (e.g., 'arts... are the ones that everybody cannot do them'), missing articles, and awkward phrasing (e.g., 'In certain stated present day'). Punctuation is also inconsistent, particularly with spacing around hyphens and commas. While the meaning is generally conveyed, the high frequency of errors in basic grammar and sentence construction prevents a higher score.
