Writing task 2 - Public transport free of charge

Some people argue that public transport should be made completely free of charge. Are there more advantages over disadvantages of this decision?

Answer:

Public transport id like the life line in the big cities across the world. Authorities expend hefty amount of money in the development and maintenance of public transport system. Since, it has wider reach, some argue that it should be made free for all. This suggestion will bore more disadvantages than a few advantages.

Firstly, free things are exploited faster the natural resources. People's attitude towards free transportation will become a reason of dirty and damaged buses and other modes of transports. Moreover, this leads to over crowded vehicles that can suffocate many. Like, it is commonly seen, whenever government of India started a free train to some pilgrimages, passengers were seen hanging from the trains, putting their life in danger and leaves littered transport behind.

Government need money to run a nation and to provide facilities to each and every citizen. Ticket amount helps in this work. The money collected from this, is spent on the construction of roads, railway tracks and many other developmental works. Not only this, free public transport will shut many businesses. There are man who have owned taxi business and have employed number of people/ The free transport system will collapse this business as people will prefer free services more than the paid ones.

However, this system will lessen the number of private vehicles on the road but as public transport has many stoppages in the routes, the person can be late which is unacceptable in today's fast paced life. Further, free system will somewhere benefit the poor community of a nation.

All in all, disadvantages of free public transport overweight its advantages. Government should not make the transport free of cost but can charge a small amount of money to balance its developmental works and to handle the other financial problems.

IELTS writing task 2 - Essay - Buying fashionable clothes is wasteful

Question: Buying fashionable clothes is wasteful because people don't need new clothes all the time. Clothes should be bought and used more wisely. Do you agree?

Vogue is blindly followed by people of all age groups and  income groups. Usually folks wear new clothes, accessories to attract the other gender and for this individuals have become shopaholic and continue to buy new dresses without thinking wisely, which is a wrong approach as clothes should be purchased and used more wisely as there are many reasons to support this argument.

Clothes need to be worn to cover the body and not to show status but this has become a statement in all the societies. People buy clothes without considering their budget. When they forget to cut the corner then they land themselves in the pool of troubles. For instance, when people their shipping bills with credit cards then, they have to return the actual sum with some interest to the bank, This actually leads to over expenditure and sometimes to debts. When these are difficult to pay then that bring stress.

In addition to this, people need to buy clothes not according to the trend but according to their body shapes as well as taste. A cloth which does not fits a body will make a beautiful person ugly whereas, a cloth which is very well fitted will enhance a person's personality. For example, Mallika Sherawat was highly criticized for wearing  a wrong and ill fitted dress in the 2019th Cannes festival. Individuals need to take a lesson from these incidents and buy dresses accordingly.

Hammering the last nail of the coffin, I would like to say that beauty lies in the eyes of beholder ad this is not affected by the outer appearance of the person. People need to understand that clothes are to cover the body not to reflect social status so wise decision need to be taken at the time of purchase.

So, according to lease agreement, I have to return speck and span flat to you and this is what I did. Now, it is your turn to return the favor and follow the rules.
