Student answer (Band 6.0)
There's a believe that "anyone can do it" in most of the countaries in manners of some fileds for instance music, literature,acting and art. In result it brings luck and money to people who has no talent and surpasses the hardwork of people's that actually have natural talent.In this essay we are going to disscuss both point of views.
I completely agree to this statement.Social media is a big plateform in today's world of inovation and it proves to be benefcial as well as harmfull for the mankind. It brings light to the people who has no talent instead of giving limelight to the orignal artists.For example in Pakistan a singer named Chahat fateh ali khan got limelight because of his bad vocals and closed many brand deals instead of some deserving person who is actually good at singing.
To be precise social media is playing big role in that.We have different social media plateforms like tiktok,Instagrame where people got million of followers and they have no orignal talents they are just lipsyncing to music and ended up securing a leading role dramas because of their follower count and as a result actual actors are suffering.
However we can not fully blammed social media for this there are some other factors contributing to this issue.For instance we put so much weight on appreciating people's effort we completely ingorned positive criticism.People should be encouraged for their natural talents and for something you're actually good at .Just because you are triying or putting efforts into something does'nt mean you will achieve that thing.We should be sure about the things we are investing our times in.For intance just because you got into make-up school does'nt ensures you are good make-up artist you need to understand you're actually good at either haistyling or doing make-up so that you can put extra effort into that.
We should encourages people for what they're doing but also give in geniun feebacks about it, also we should be considerate about the the content we are consuming and make sure we are appreciating real effort and talent instead of follwing the trends.

Task Achievement / Task Response: Band 6.5
Your position is clear: you agree that people without strong artistic ability can gain fame and income while genuine talent is overlooked. The examples of Chahat Fateh Ali Khan and social-media users gaining acting roles through follower counts make the argument relevant, and you also acknowledge that social media is not the only cause. This covers the task well, with some evidence of the fuller development expected at the next level. However, the discussion of positive criticism and choosing a suitable field is less clearly connected to the central claim, and the final paragraph mainly offers recommendations rather than extending your explanation. Develop the causes and consequences more fully, and make each example explicitly show how talented artists lose recognition or opportunity.
Coherence and Cohesion: Band 6.0
The response has a recognisable structure: an introduction, a clear agreement, examples, a qualification, and a concluding recommendation. Paragraphing helps separate the main points, and transitions such as “However” and “For instance” guide the reader. Overall, the ideas can be followed, but cohesion is sometimes mechanical or unclear. The opening promises to discuss “both point of views,” although the essay mainly supports one position, and “To be precise social media is playing big role in that” repeats the previous point rather than advancing it. Some links between ideas also need clarification, particularly the move from social-media fame to criticism and career choice. Use topic sentences that state each paragraph’s purpose and connect examples directly to the argument.
Lexical Resource: Band 5.5
You use relevant vocabulary for the topic, including “limelight,” “natural talents,” “follower count,” “positive criticism,” and “brand deals.” These choices help communicate your examples and show some range beyond basic words. However, spelling errors and inaccurate or unnatural word combinations are noticeable throughout, including “plateform,” “orignal,” “geniun feebacks,” and “put so much weight on appreciating people's effort.” Some wording is also imprecise: “brings luck and money” does not clearly express the idea of fame and commercial success, while “closed many brand deals” is not the natural collocation. Aim for accurate spelling and more precise phrases, and check whether each expression sounds natural in context. This would make your meaning clearer and more controlled.
Grammatical Range and Accuracy: Band 5.0
You attempt a mixture of simple and complex sentences, including clauses introduced by “because,” “instead of,” and “just because.” This gives the response some structural variety, and the main argument is generally understandable. However, errors in agreement, verb forms, articles, and sentence boundaries occur often enough to affect fluency. For example, “people who has no talent” should use a plural verb, and “people got million of followers” needs a more accurate tense and plural form. The sentence beginning “We should be sure about the things…” also runs into several ideas without clear punctuation. Practise checking subject–verb agreement and verb forms, and divide long sentences into complete, clearly punctuated units while retaining some complex structures.
