Bài mẫu IELTS Writing Task 1

The table illustrates how much money was given to developing countries by the USA, European countries and other countries, between 2006 and 2010.

Overall, it can be seen that the USA was the biggest contributor to developing nations in all measured years. In addition, European countries and other countries gave similar amounts of money to developing nations each year.

In 2006, the USA gave over three times as much money to developing nations, with a donation of $9.8 million. European and other countries donated $3.1 million and $2.8 million respectively. All countries increased their donations to developing nations over the following two years, reaching a total of $24.4 million.

In 2009 however, the donations from all countries slightly decreased from the 2008 figures, with a total figure of $23.5 million. However, these figures saw an increase again in 2010, with a total contribution of $28.1 million. Of this, the USA donated $20.3 million, while European and other countries gave $4.1 and $3.7 million respectively.

IELTS Writing Task 2:

When designing a building, the most important factor is intended use of the building rather than its outward appearance.

To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Bài mẫu IELTS Writing Task 2

People have different views regarding the importance of a building’s function in comparison to its exterior look when it comes to building design. In my opinion, I agree with the idea that a construction’s purpose should be more highly-valued than the appearance for a number of reasons.

On the one hand, it cannot be denied that a magnificent structure could bring a wide range of benefits that should be taken into consideration. Firstly, it can raise the value of a building remarkably, especially a commercial or shopping center, as it looks more attractive, professional and high-class. The more customers are attracted to the building, the more profit it can generate, which can benefit the building’s owners enormously. Secondly, a building with an aesthetic design can contribute a lot to the appearance of a city, and may make it become one of the most distinguishing places on the map. A lot of cities nowadays which are well-known for their architectural beauty have become tourist attractions.

On the other hand, how a building works, in my opinion, is the key to consider when designing it. There are a variety of different building types such as office buildings, commercial buildings, shopping centres, hospitals and schools. Each one of these has its own purpose and a particular interior design to serve those purposes. Therefore, only by focusing on the functionality of a design first, can we bring out the best use of a construction. In addition, people use a particular place because of what it offers inside, not merely because of what it looks like on the outside. For example, if a company intends to erect a new office building, they will tend to choose the design based on the inner working spaces to enhance the operation of the staff and the enterprise.

In conclusion, both the exterior and interior are important factors in designing a building. However, if I had a limited budget and only could afford to choose one or the other, I would opt for the function of a building.
