Truong, Ethan has given a very good piece of advice regarding how to post your essays here. Without the information required for the completion of the essay, we will not know where to begin reviewing your content and what kind of advice we can offer to help you improve your written skills. While your work seems to be well developed and logical, the lack of information about the demands of the essay topic leaves me wondering about how accurately you have responded to the prompt and whether you have represented all of the expected elements of the requirements. Kindly upload the necessary instruction and topic discussion as soon as you can so that I can do a better job of reviewing and advising you regarding the points for revision in your essay.

Thank you! This is the first time I post my essay so I still have some lack of information , so here is the full topic of my ielts writing task 2:

At present, science is developing quickly, but some people still have a high opinion of artists.
What can arts tell us of life that science cannot

Truong, you seem to have misunderstood the prompt. The reference to art that is being made in the prompt is not about the effect of music and dance on people but rather, the way that life can be interpreted through art. The reference that the topic makes is to the arts in terms of paintings, drawings, sketches, collages, etc. The arts that talk about life, not the arts that fills life. So there is misdirection of the prompt in your discussion. The clue as to how to discuss the essay came from the fact that the prompt asks you to discuss "What can arts tell us of life that science cannot". This is a reference to the way that the aforementioned types of graphic art can help people learn about the way of life of bygone era, such as 18th century artwork, or the works of the great artists such as Van Gogh, and Monet. Their paintings depicted life in a way that science can never impart to people. This is actually a trick question that tests your ability to decipher keywords and the hidden meaning behind the prompts. This is a test of your analytical skill and cultural references. While your discussion was good, I do not feel that it properly addressed the prompt because you failed to recognize the real meaning behind the implied discussion.

@Holt
Oh yeah, I understand, I thought it has something wrong, now I clear, thanks you and I will rewrite it in tomorrow! :)
