Before the construction, there was noone living on the island. Coconut trees situated on the west and north side of the island. Sea covers around the Island.There was a beach, but there was nobody swimming.

After the construction, the island is highly populated. People have also built a pier, in order to improve its tourismus. Now people from the land have the chance to explore a newly founded island. All kind of boats such as sailboats, yachts, ships and so on can anchor on this pier.While staying on the Island, tourists can accomodate in the local hotel and enjoy seafood in the local restaurant. For relaxation purposes, they can swim on the beach, which is not so far away from the hotel.

The economical situation of the island is now improved. This island is not a wild island anymore. The nature here is now being used for commercial purposes from the people. It is now up to the people, whether this island can conserve its good wilderness or not.

Writing Feedback / IELTS ESSAY: IMPROVEMENTS OF THE TOURISM INDUSTRY [5]

The tourism industry has grown enormously over the last 50 years, and there are few places which are unaffected by it.However, tourism rarely benefits the countries which tourists visit. To what extent do you agree or disagree ?

The tourism industry is one of the most important aspect of the economy.Through tourism,hotels are built,roads are repaired in order to attract visitors. This has created both negative and positive affects to the native country.Personally,I think that tourism brings wealth to the country but also partly destroy its nature.

The most important reason is the tourists' bad behaviors.Young people usually leave trashes everywhere they go.Nowadays these trashes are mostly made of undissolved materials such as plastic of metal, so this not only makes beautiful sightseeings ugly but also pollutes the environment.

A second reason why I am partly opposed to the growth of the tourism industry is that money plays an important role in controlling actions from the government. In a village in Vietnam, thousands hectares of farm were levelled for playing golf. This has caused serious consequences: farmers loses their jobs and the native people do not have enough rice to eat.

On the other hand, tourism also brings wealth and fame to the country. For example: Mallorca is well-known to european citizens for its beautiful beaches. Another good example is Los Angeles. If people want to visit movie studios, the Hall of Fame or to see movie stars, Los Angeles is the right place to go. When they stay at the local Hotels, they have to pay for the services and food, which benefits the country.

However, there are places which are unaffected by tourism such as suburbs, forests or mountain areas. The reasons are :First, these places are dangerous for people.Second, there are not remarkable tourist attractions, where visitors can entertain or eat specialties. In my opinion, improving the tourism industry of one place is not an easy mission.The government must have strategies or plans in order to achieve the goals it wants.

Writing Feedback / IELTS ESSAY : WRITING A RESPONSE LETTER TO A COMPLAIN ABOUT NOISE [3]

Your neighbours have recently written to you to complain about the noise from your houseflat. Write a letter to your neighbours. In your letter:
. Explain the reasons for the noise.
. Apologise
. Describe what action you will take

Dear Irina,
I would not know that the noise from my houseflat has caused so many problems if it was not for your letter. Recently my water pipes have broken down. I can not cook or shower because of lack of water. Then I had to call for a plumber. By boring he has found out that too much hair was the reason for the problem.

I have been really cautious about the boring time. The plumber can only bore on weekdays' mornings after nine am and bevor twelve am and evenings after two pm and bevor five pm. If this still disturbed you, I am so sorry about that.

I have intended to replace all of my old water pipes with larger ones so the plumber must work for one more week. But since the noise has caused complaints in the neighborhood, I can tell him that he can only work in the mornings and he has to work for two weeks more. Please understand my situation because this is the only solution to solve this problem.

If you are still not satisfied, please let me know.
Best regards

Writing Feedback / IELTS Essay : effects of advertisement on daily life [3]

Some people say that advertising encourages us to buy things that we really don't need. Others say that advertisements tell us about new products that may improve our lives. Which view point do you agree with ?

In modern society, machines work mainly in the production progress and humans only have to control it. Therefore, there are more supply sources than demand on marketplace. To prevent an economical crisis, advertisement was born to encourage people to buy things which are sometimes unnecessary for them.

I was once told not to believe in advertisements because they are not true. First of all, advertisements on TV or images on the streets are always well editted by using photoshop or professional programs before they are represented to consumers. A case in point is clothing advertisements. Beautiful models wear fashionable clothes. Everyone wants to buy these clothes because each style is created for each typical group of customers. Employees in the marketing department are taught how to seduce consumers to buy their products.

Second, in order to avoid products being left in the stock and not being bought, there are methods such as sale-off programs for many reasons: end of season sale-off, sale-off on national holidays... We-customers are always tricked to spend our money more and more.

Advertisements have always been a tool to stimulate consumption but overuse it can lead to serious consequences. For instance, many people believe the effectiveness of some cosmetics brands with the aid of their flawless photos. Their models always have perfect skin, they always look stunning despite their age.But effectiveness of cosmetics depends on its compatibility with the Skin. If the skin and cosmetics are not compatible with each each other, the use of cosmetics can lead to allergie. Another example is medicine. Some medicines are advertised to contain lots of vitamins but in fact they do not.

One way to avoid spending too much money on unnecessary things is to make a list of what to buy before going shopping. Let's together be conscious customers.
