Look at these extracts from some of my sample essays and task 1 reports and fill in the missing linking language.


1. There are several reasons why these innovations in agriculture can be said to positive. botheducationenjoyingfarminggratificationitnumberOnerespectivelystaffSuch issuesthemtheythis is that the world’s population has exploded within the past century and that traditional methods of botheducationenjoyingfarminggratificationitnumberOnerespectivelystaffSuch issuesthemtheythis could not provide sufficient food for everyone.

2.It is fairly easy to understand the reasons why this proposal has been made. The reasoning is that if workers are not allowed to work for more than 35 hours weekly, then employers will be forced to engage more botheducationenjoyingfarminggratificationitnumberOnerespectivelystaffSuch issuesthemtheythis. There would be at least two advantages to botheducationenjoyingfarminggratificationitnumberOnerespectivelystaffSuch issuesthemtheythis.

3.These two pie charts show the changes in popularity of different leisure activities in the United States of America between 1999 and 2009. We can see that the most popular leisure activities were almost the same in botheducationenjoyingfarminggratificationitnumberOnerespectivelystaffSuch issuesthemtheythis periods, but there were a number of differences in popularity between botheducationenjoyingfarminggratificationitnumberOnerespectivelystaffSuch issuesthemtheythis.

4. In stark contrast, around as half as many Americans went cycling in 2009 as compared to ten years earlier, with the result that botheducationenjoyingfarminggratificationitnumberOnerespectivelystaffSuch issuesthemtheythis became less popular than camping, at 7% and 9% botheducationenjoyingfarminggratificationitnumberOnerespectivelystaffSuch issuesthemtheythis.

5. If governments spent less money on space research, then botheducationenjoyingfarminggratificationitnumberOnerespectivelystaffSuch issuesthemtheythis would be able to help solve some of these problems such as population control, elimination of diseases like cholera, global warming and food shortages. botheducationenjoyingfarminggratificationitnumberOnerespectivelystaffSuch issuesthemtheythis are more important because they affect the lives of millions of ordinary people.

6. Another option would be to try and educate people about the problems having large families can cause. It is difficult to see, however, what form this botheducationenjoyingfarminggratificationitnumberOnerespectivelystaffSuch issuesthemtheythis should take.

7. It is perhaps less obvious why books are said to be out of fashion. One possibility is that fewer people choose to read for pleasure nowadays because they prefer the instant botheducationenjoyingfarminggratificationitnumberOnerespectivelystaffSuch issuesthemtheythis and thrills of modern technology. There is less effort involved in botheducationenjoyingfarminggratificationitnumberOnerespectivelystaffSuch issuesthemtheythis a 3D movie or playing a computer game than in turning the pages of a book.

8. This chart shows the proportion of people who are able to read and write in 10 countries globally. In Bangladesh 47.5% of the population are literate, whereas in Brazil the figure is nearly double botheducationenjoyingfarminggratificationitnumberOnerespectivelystaffSuch issuesthemtheythis at 88.6%. Brazil and Colombia both have a literacy rate of around 90%, but in France and Greece the rate is significantly higher.
In Iran the number of people that have literacy skills is over 82%, while in Pakistan this botheducationenjoyingfarminggratificationitnumberOnerespectivelystaffSuch issuesthemtheythis is just under 50%.
