IELTS Writing Part 2

Governments should spend money on railways rather than roads.
To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?
Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

My article:
Some people think that governments should prefer to invest more on roads rather than railways. In my own opinion, I don't think it is a good idea.
Firstly, I think roads are more flexible than railways. They can easily go through not only cities but also towns, while railways can't. Furthermore, roads are more suitable for people's daily life. For example, people can drive a car in the road, or they can take a bus, even they can ride a bike. On the contrary, people can't do such things on railways. Also, constructing railways need more room than roads, which is rare in the big cities. Besides, I think it is much harder for building railways than roads.
Secondly, I think the cost of roads construction is cheaper than railways. For instance, when we have built a railway, we need trains, which will cost more. Besides, if few people take the train rather than the bus, the income won't match the require of the railway maintance. Furthermore, while the public transport is not full used, there will be energy waste, which is bad for the environment. What's worse, if there is an accident on railways, it will be fairly enconvinient for people, especially during the workdays.
In conculsion, I disagree that the money from governments should put on railways than on roads. I think roads will be used more than railways because it thr roads are more convinient. I also think that the roads cunstruction will cost less than the railways do.

"I don't think" 太多余了

Firstly, I think roads are more flexible than railways.

Usually if you can remove the '-ly' without changing the meaning, it's better to omit it. Only other word (other than ordinals) I can think of right now where this applies is thus/thusly.

They can easily go through not onlyNot only can they travel through cities, but also small towns, while railways can't.

Furthermore, roads are more suitable for people's daileveryday life.

For example, on a road, people can drive a car in the road, or they can take a bus, even they ca, take a bus, or even ride a bike.

OIn the contrary, people can't do such things on railwaysst, rail only supports one method of transportation.

Also, constructingFurthermore, railways need more room than roads, which is ralready a scarce in thecommodity in big cities.

Besides versatility and cost, I think it is also much harder forto building railways than roads.

Secondly, I think the cost of roads construction is cheaper than that of railways.

I get that all the above points are under the umbrella of "flexibility," but using all those other transitions in between makes the reader forget about the underlying thread a little bit. When I saw second, I thought to myself, "but you've already made three or four different arguments."

For instance, when we have built a railway, we need trains, which will cost morea railway is built, the trains are still needed, which will incur additional costs.

Try to avoid using personal pronouns like "we," "you," and "I" in formal writing.

Besides, if fewer people take the train rather than the bus, the income won't match the require of the railwaygenerated won't suffice to cover the rail system's maintenance costs.

Furthermore, whileas long as the public transport is not full usedation system is not operating at maximum capacity, there will be energy waste, which is bad for the environment.

To be fair, I'm sure the amount of people required for a train to be more environmentally friendly than a car is very small. Plenty of people drive to work every day in cars that can fit 5+ people, by themselves.

What's worse, if there is an accident on railwaysthe railroad, it will be fairincredibly einconvienient for peopleassengers, especially during the workdays week.

"People" is a fairly generic word, try to omit it or use more specific words

In conculusion, I disagree that the money from the governments should pube spent on railways rather than on roads.

I think roads will be used more than railways, because it thr roads are more convienient.

I also think that the roads cuonstruction will cost less than the railways do construction will.

Nice! 假如这是你真的看法,好奇你觉得中国的火车体系有没有得到成功。汽车发射的烟雾真的好多,对我来说公共交通可以在很大程度上减少污染,而且坐火车去远远的地方一定更方便,不要一直开车,可以放送、睡觉等哈哈哈

只是为了考试而写的文章~火车体系不算成功吧,目前很多高铁都是亏钱的。我喜欢地铁,稳,味道也不重,空间也大。我坐国内的公交车会觉得很不舒服,香港和澳门的却不会。所以还是车的问题。

火车体系是一个公共事业,对我来说功能是运输人们,不是赚钱。中国公车我自己从没坐过,但是高铁/overnight火车都坐了。中国的面积非常大,坐公车去远地方太不方便吧,又慢又小,没有厕所或者餐厅。也许在城市或者农村里面,公车更方便、有效,但是为了把很多人们运输到远远的地方,只有火车、飞机能竞争,都比公车即快又efficient。

As for your other comment I think that your argument is not structured clearly as two points only, so yeah I would probably ditch the "first...second...", use whatever transitions are appropriate.

To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?
