IELTS WIRTING TASK 2 The management of re-educational activities for inmates is a very difficult and controversial topic. If on the one hand the imprisonment has to be thought as punishment, on the other hand, serving a sentence should help criminals to be reintegrated in the society. This essay argues that inmates have to be allowed to get an education but , in addiction, they have to spend time in working for the community. The first point is a juridical argument. A lot of legal systems and constitutions state that criminals have to be re-educated in order to give them another opportunity. Teaching them civics and the main aspects of a democratic and liberal society may help them in achieving this goal. Moreover they can realize the gravity of their actions and blames. Beyond a juridical point of view there are evidences that educational projects give benefits to the whole society as well as to the inmate. A lot of sociological studies have statistically proved a lot of improvements among the states which have invested more in this kind of activities. The data collected by this researches have shown a gradual decreasing in the amount of offenses as well as in number of reiterations per inmate. However this programmes are completely useless if they are not accompanied by other practical activities as social works. The convicts have to be applied to do some useful job for local community as mantaining structures like street or picking up the rubbish from public site as rivers or parks. Overall it is clear that education has a central role in recuperating the criminals, anyway they should not be seen only as passive entities but they have to contribute actively to social needs

Writing task 2 -IELTS- Environmental problems are too big for individuals to be solved Task: Some people think that environmental problems are too big for individuals to be solved, while others think that individuals cannot solve these environmental problems unless governments make some action. My essay: Over the last few decades environmental issues have become a very hot topic as well as a controversial thematic. If in one hand it is undeniable that a very deep conscience has grown and large part of people considers these problems as a real threat for themselves, there are different opinions as regard the way to cope with this problem. According to the first point of view individual has no influence in solving this kind of problems. This can be considered a very pessimistic vision strongly conditioned by an hidden fatalism. These people believe that preserving the environment, recycling the waste, reducing self-pollution will not have a beneficial impact on the world scenario. As first argument they state that these problems have become such big and complex that individual actions cannot change the course of the events. Moreover, pollution and global warming has triggered a series of geological phenomenon that it is impossible to block: “critical point” is just overcome and so no retry is possible. On the other hand someone don’t agree with this thesis and consider this kind of thought as a product of a lazy and nihilist society. Differently from the first one, these people think that a change can occur only if governments and other major organizations intervene directly to solve it at different levels. The first one consist in stating and promoting several policies to reduces the causes of environmental issues: stimulating recycling, decreasing the amount of production of green-house gases, planning politics of taxation for non-eco friendly cars. These strict measurements can improve directly the situation and, as second effects, can stimulate people’s conscience toward ecological problems. Overall, it is clear that this theme is very complex and no solution can be considered definitive or permanent unless a very deep and specialized studies prove its efficacy. Anyway the second approach is definitely the best one because only a cooperation between individual and government can realize a turning point in this complicate global scenario. Stating that individual actions have no efficacy is meaningless because every single effort is necessary and useful to pursuit our goal.

ielts writing task 2: fast food “ Even though doctors all over the world state that fast food is bad for people's health, more and more people are eating it” A lot of doctors state fast food is not properly a safe food and it could be very dangerous for the health. Although this advice given by the scientists many researches show how the consume of this kind of food has been increasing. There are many reasons but everyone are connected strongly with the modern society and its features. The first one can be deduced by a part of the name “ fast food” : “ fast” . It is clear that our lifestyle has become faster than in the past and also “eating” could be considered as a waste of time. Having a meal in a fast food represents often the solution of this problem: short queue and food ready instantly. Another main reason is the price. The companies of this sector succeed in offering cheaper meal than a usual one in a normal restaurant due to the big quantity of food this corporations manage daily. A lot of people are attracted by the possibility of having dinner paying less than 10 euros per person. On the other hand during the last years more and more people has started to pay attention of what they eat. Nowdays, thanks to the media, many consumers are more informed about the advantages of a safe diet and they has started to be conscious about the quality of food. Although the recent data do not show any evidence of this new trend , in the future the number of people who will eat in “fast food” will gradually decrease. It is also possible ( and more probable) that fast foods companies will have to change their menù introducing more healthy food. It will depend only on how the consumers will be able to condition the market.

ielts writing task 2 immigraition from the countryside to the city ( causes and effects) Immigration from the countryside to cities has become a real important phenomenon over the last decades and , according to many studies , it will have increased by the following years. Analizing the phenomenon is not so easy because we have to consider several variables which depend on a specific situation. However there are some particular causes common among these events. The first ones are the poverty and the unemployment which are really connected one to each other. Being a rural environment the economy is based mostly on agriculture and it depends on it. As consequence if a harvest or a flood comes all the economic and working system crushes. The quality and quantitative of facilities is another reason as important as the first one. A lot of places in the countryside are not provided of a water or electric system and the hospitals ,are not as equipped as that of the town. Focusing on the effects of the immigration it is clear that overcrowding is the main and the most dangerous problem. Cities will be not longer able to ensure all the facilities to a more and more numerous population. Apart from the economic point of view immigration could represent a social problem. People from the countryside have different traditions and mores than the ones in the cities. They belong to different cultural heritages and for this reason the spreading of social tensions could be very possible. On the other hand we cannot assert this situation have only negative consequence. The arrival of new people in a specific environment means also sharing knowledges and ideas and makes the society more dynamic. The impact of immigration the cities cannot be esemplified as negative or positive. In this case the most important role is played by governments which has to limit people and ensure the most the minimal services to the last one. In this way probably the previous problems will be avoided.
