Cambridge 12: Academic IELTS Test 6 Writing Task 2 Sample (Advantages of more young adults)


Sample:

The increase in the total number of young people as opposed to older people has been seen in some nations recently. It has been assumed that this situation can give more benefits to a country. This essay will focus on the belief that having more young adults positively affects a nation.

It is widely known that some nations, like Japan and Greece, are suffering from economic turmoil. Most experts have pinpointed their aging population as the main factor. A large number of their population belongs to the seniors who are incapable of doing physical labor. As a result, the smaller population, which is the young adults are forced to work harder and longer to pay taxes. As we all know, most governments provide financial support to the aging individuals. Of course, these kinds of financial support are costly and require proper budgeting to guarantee the continuous help they need.

Having defined the effects of a large population of the older generation to a nation, let us take a look at the other picture. A country with more youngsters can experience a more stable economy as an outcome of having a bigger workforce. A larger workforce means more production, more service, and more tax collection. With a huge amount of money, governments can distribute finances not only to the social welfare but also to other matters that are detrimental for a country’s development like transportation, commercialization, healthcare and the like.

In conclusion, having a greater number of physically fit, younger workers contribute highly to the success and stability of a nation. The more stable a country is, the more support it can provide to its locals regardless of age.

Sample: The data from the line graph illustrates the carbon dioxide emissions of an average individual per metric tonnes in four European countries every decade from 1967-2007.A closer look at the data highlights the fact that among the 4 nations, the UK has the highest rate in carbon dioxide emissions per person in 40 years. In 1967, there was approximately 11 metric tonnes of carbon dioxide released by an average Englishman which was about ten times higher than the emissions made by an individual from Portugal.
