Task Two: Conclusion

It is important when you write your conclusion, that you don't just repeat what you have already said.

One way to deal with this is to write about how you see the situation changing in the future.

Let's look at our example again: 'Living in a big city is stressful and has nothing but disadvantages.' 

How do you see the future? Will cities become better places to live? Or worse? Will people continue to move to cities or will they start moving to the countryside?

Check out the model answer to see one conclusion.
