Trang 1Đề thi và bài mẫu IELTS Writing Task 2 ngày 25/3/2017
The best way to resolve the international environmental problems is to increase the cost of fuel To what extent do you agree or disagree? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience Write at least 250 words
Model Answer:
The environment is facing many hazards continuously and the imprudent human action is the first and foremost reason for this Humans are getting resources from the environment and our life on earth
primarily depends on nature If this continues, there will be an imbalance in the future world To protect the environment, some people suggest increasing the fuel price as they think that fuel price would reduce the private car ownership and would give a check in the uncontrolled industrialisation
As per the statement, fuel is a part of the hazardous human activities which is harming the environment
By increasing the price of the fuel, the authority might reduce the cars running on the street but that will also be a burden to the fuel users But they will find an alternative way to overcome the price rise
Moreover, the increasing price of the fuel would also increase the price of necessary products Poor, thus, would find it even harder to maintain their daily expenses Therefore, this method will not be a solution
to stop continuously increasing environmental hazards
Chemical wastages and solid wastages are also hazardous to the environment These harms will not stop
by increasing fuel prices Improper removal of electronic wastes is also a danger to the environment Usage of Chloro Floro Carbon (CFC) in electrical equipment such as the refrigerator, is unavoidable and the use of such household electronics is increasing day by day This will not be controlled by increasing the price of the fuel
This system might be useful to a certain extent in some developing countries Due to economic reasons, many people in such countries would not use their private cars But this might not be useful for
developed countries since they could overcome from this situation easily Also, in fuel rich countries, such as Middle East countries, this will be useless and their profit margin from fuel sales would increase Therefore, increasing the fuel price is one method of controlling hazards occur through fuel gasification

Band 7:
Most people would accept that one of the highest priorities today is to find a solution to the various environmental problems facing mankind It has been suggested that best way to achieve this is for
governments to raise the price of fuel I am, however, not sure that this is necessarily the case
One reason why this approach may not work is that there is not just one environmental problem the world faces today If governments did make fuel more expensive, it might well help reduce the amount
of carbon dioxide we produce and so slow down the rate of global warming and air pollution However,
it would not help with other major problems such as intensive farming, overpopulation, the hole in the ozone layer or water pollution For these problems we need to find other solutions
A second reason why this policy may not be the most appropriate is that it places the emphasis on
governmental policy and not individual responsibility Ultimately, most environmental problems are the result of the way we as individuals live our lives If we wish to find a long-term and lasting solution to them, we need to learn to live in a way that it is greener or kinder to the environment What governments need to do to make this happen is to ensure there is a global programme to educate people of all ages about the environmental consequences to their actions
In summary, I believe that increasing the level of taxation on fuel is at best a short-term solution to only one environmental problem If we wish to provide a home for our children’s children, education is likely
to be the key to making this happen
Sample 3:
Excessive traffic and increasing pollution are affecting every major city in the globe To lessen such problems, some people say that governments should raise the price of fuel such as petrol and diesel It may help to some extent but I disagree that it is the best solution to solve the problem of environment
To begin with, the number of cars in a country directly depends on the proportion of the population affluent enough to own cars As a result, raises in gas price could invoke hard feelings among this
segment of people but would not drastically change their behaviour in using cars Even if the number of cars on road is reduced due to higher gas cost, this is not the best way to solve traffic problems Such policy would hurt the auto industry, place higher costs on current and prospective car owners, and
Trang 3be detrimental to the economy of a nation In the long run, the final way out could be the construction of better roads and more effective use of available transport facilities
Secondly, there is evidence that waste gas from cars is not the leading cause of air pollution The culprit may be the discharge of polluting substances into the atmosphere due to the rapidly growing
manufacturing industry As a result, reduction of the number of cars would not return us a blue sky and fresh air We could better handle this problem if we could increase control over industrial
waste-discharge and adopt more environmental friendly materials and production equipment
Finally, other measures like the application of cheaper and cleaner energy resources could also be a better solution For example, we now have the ability to make cell- powered or even solar-powered cars Such energy is completely clean and plentiful
To put it in a nutshell, I pen down saying that, it is not the best way to control traffic and pollution by increasing gas price because such action will hurt consumers and economy without achieving what it is aimed for Measures such as construction of better transport facilities and development of new energy resources could be more effective solutions
