Why this response received Band 3.5
The response establishes the topic and signals an intention to discuss both sides, but it is only an introductory paragraph and largely restates the prompt, leaving both views, supporting ideas, and the writer’s position undeveloped. The highest priority is to produce a complete essay of at least 250 words with separate, explained arguments for each view and a clear, grammatically expressed opinion.
IELTS Writing Criteria Scores
Task Response
The response only paraphrases the issue and announces a discussion, without actually explaining either view or establishing a clear position.
Write a complete response that develops both perspectives with reasons or examples and states an unambiguous opinion.
Coherence and Cohesion
The short paragraph follows a basic introductory sequence, but there is no essay-level progression or paragraph structure.
Organise the response into an introduction, focused body paragraphs for the two views, and a conclusion.
Lexical Resource
The vocabulary is limited and repetitive, with awkward combinations such as discussing in detail about something and having benefits for employee.
Use a wider range of precise topic vocabulary and check common collocations and singular-plural forms.
Grammatical Range and Accuracy
Some basic clauses are understandable, but frequent structural errors culminate in a final sentence whose meaning is difficult to follow.
Build complete sentences with clear subjects and verbs, then check agreement, articles, and conditional structures.
