FROM SIMON:
The word that I was thinking of is "all". 
I disagree with the idea of teleworking in ALL work contexts. This means that I can write one 
paragraph about the benefits of teleworking in some work situations, then another paragraph about 
the contexts in which I think teleworking would be a bad idea.

IELTS Writing Task 2: using examples 
Sometimes, the best way to think of ideas for an essay is to start with an example. One good 
example can give you enough ideas for a full paragraph. 
Look at the following question: 
Should governments make decisions about people's lifestyle, or should people make their 
own decisions?
This question seems difficult, but if you take "smoking" as an example of a lifestyle choice, it becomes 
a lot easier. Here's my paragraph: 
In some cases, governments can help people to make better lifestyle choices. In the UK, for example, 
smoking is now banned in all workplaces, and it is even prohibited for people to smoke in restaurants, 
bars and pubs. As a result, many people who used to smoke socially have now given up. At the same 
time, the government has ensured that cigarette prices keep going up, and there have been several 
campaigns to highlight the health risks of smoking. These measures have also helped to reduce the 
number of smokers in this country.
