Simon’s ielts writing task 2

because it is morally wrong to cause animals to suffer, while others are in favour of them 
because of their benefits to humanity.
Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
Here are the steps I would take to answer this question: 

First we need 
ideas
. I would start by writing down some arguments for and against animal testing. I 
covered this topic in my 
ebook
(chapter 2), so I already have some good ideas in my head. 

Next we can decide on our 
own view
. Looking at the ideas you wrote down, you need to make a 
decision. A good 'middle point' might be that animal experiments should only be used for the most 
important medical research. 

Now we need to 
organise
our ideas. Always stick to the 4-paragraph structure; you don't need an 
extra paragraph for your own view because you agree with elements of the two views stated in the 
question. 

Finally we're ready to 
write
the essay. Keep your introduction and conclusion short. Spend most of 
your time on the main body paragraphs.

IELTS Writing Task 2: correct the mistakes 
Students shared some good essays about the 
animal experiments
topic that we looked at last week. 
Can you improve the sentences below? 
1. This essay examines both sides of views. 
2. The first reason, the lives of animals should be respected. 
3. Most people think animal testing is necessary but others are upset of these activities. 
4. On other hand for those who are opposed this type of research would stand on ethical issues. 
5. Thanks to the researches on mice, scientists have known how to treat diseases. 
6. To sum up, it is highly true that we rely on animals’ research to help us to develop medicines. 
I'll share my full essay next week.
