IELTS Writing Task 2 question

In some countries today, there is an attitude that 'anyone can do it' in the arts - music, literature, acting, art, etc. As a result, people with no talent become rich and famous and genuine talent is not valued or appreciated.

Do you agree or disagree?

You should use your own ideas, knowledge and experience and support your arguments with examples and relevant evidence.

Student answer (Band 5.0)

Nowdays, in many countries, people have an attitude that they can do anything in the art with money power and who have real talent, they can not get respect. I disagree with that statement because many youtubers and actors have a lot of influncers and every people know and appreciated them but real heros of vrtual life can not get value.

First reason, a person who does not have any qualification can become rich and famous by social media while a doctor, scientist and a teacher do not get any reward and appriciation even nobody knows them. Every students know about bollywood stars and a famous content creater however they do not know about a greatest scientist name and their contributation. For example, in India, some citizens worship a bollywood star like salman khan and Sarukha but only few people know about their international athletic name and their sacrifies. Therefore, i totally disagree with this statement.

Second reason. there government should aware their citizens about a real heros who have a genuine talent. They should value and give a reward to them. They also advertise their work in every area because everyone should know about them. For instance in China, chinese government advertise their grestest scientist work in every area because students will understand which type of people they want to make in the future.

In conclusion, due to without any talent someone become more famous and rich but who have a real qualification, they do not get importance. It makes children bad so who have a genuine talent they should get proper appriciation and value from government.

Task Achievement / Task Response: Band 5.0

You give a clear overall disagreement and try to support it with examples from India and China. The discussion of public recognition for celebrities compared with scientists and teachers is relevant to the prompt. However, the response only partly addresses the specific claim about people without artistic talent becoming famous while genuine artistic talent is overlooked. Much of the argument shifts to the value of doctors, teachers and scientists, who are not necessarily artists, and the examples are asserted rather than explained. The position also becomes less consistent in the conclusion, which says that untalented people do become famous and talented people are not valued, echoing the statement you initially reject. Develop a direct argument about artistic ability and clarify how each example supports your stance.

Coherence and Cohesion: Band 5.5

The response has a recognisable structure: an introduction, two body paragraphs and a conclusion. Sequencing phrases such as “First reason,” “Second reason” and “In conclusion” help the reader identify the stages of the argument. However, progression within paragraphs is often difficult to follow because ideas are joined without clear logical links. For example, the first body paragraph moves from social media fame to doctors and teachers, then to Bollywood stars and scientists, without explaining the relationship between these comparisons. “Second reason” also begins abruptly, and references such as “they” and “them” are not always clear. Use topic sentences that state one focused point, then explain and illustrate it before moving to the next idea.

Lexical Resource: Band 5.0

You attempt vocabulary relevant to public recognition and achievement, including “genuine talent,” “appreciation,” “contribution” and “worship.” This gives you some means of discussing the topic, but the range is limited and several spelling and word-choice errors make parts of the message harder to understand. Examples include “influncers,” “appriciation,” “contributation” and “grestest.” Some expressions are also unnatural or imprecise, such as “real heros of vrtual life,” “international athletic name” and “with money power.” These choices obscure the intended comparisons. Build a more accurate set of phrases for artistic talent, recognition and fame, and check spelling carefully. Prefer precise wording over expressions whose meaning is unclear.

Grammatical Range and Accuracy: Band 5.0

You use some simple sentences and attempt longer structures with clauses, for example, “because many youtubers and actors…” and “because students will understand…”. However, the range is limited, and attempts to connect several ideas often produce faulty sentence structures. In “a person who does not have any qualification can become rich … while a doctor, scientist and a teacher do not get any reward,” the comparison is not expressed clearly; “Every students know” also has a subject–verb agreement error. Other recurring problems include missing or incorrect articles, inconsistent sentence boundaries and punctuation, and incomplete constructions such as “Second reason. there government should…”. Practise building accurate subject–verb sentences first, then add one subordinate clause at a time and check agreement, articles and punctuation.
