Every Friday we are going to have a writing competition. You will be given the subject to write about at the start of the week and then on Friday all the writings will be taken and there will be a class vote on the best one. To keep it interesting the writing assignments that I give you will be from different exams (Cambridge or IELTS) so that you will get an idea about what to expect if you choose to take these exams.
This time the writing is on the subject of stress. This writing is typical of a writing for the IELTS exam.
- Present a written argument to an educated reader with no specialist knowledge of the following topic.
- In some societies, stress is now regarded as a major problem, and it is thought that people suffer from more stress than they did in the past.
- However, others feel that the amount of stress people have today is exaggerated. They say that previous generations were under more pressure, but the idea of suffering from stress did not exist.
- Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
Because we started late this week the writing competition will be on Monday, 9th of June, so finish your writing over the weekend and have it ready for Monday.
Best of luck
