यस विषयको लागि परीक्षक सुझावहरू

1

To achieve a high score, state your position unequivocally in the introduction (e.g., 'I strongly agree that...' or 'While there are valid points on both sides, I firmly believe...'). Maintain this stance throughout your essay, dedicating your main body paragraphs to supporting it. You can acknowledge the opposing view in one paragraph by starting with a concessive phrase like 'Admittedly, some might argue that...' before immediately refuting it or demonstrating why your primary argument holds more weight.

2

Consider these arguments: For the proposal, you could highlight the proven benefits of early parental involvement for child development, citing examples from Nordic countries (e.g., Sweden's generous parental leave) which often report higher levels of child well-being and gender equality. Against the proposal, you might focus on the immense fiscal burden on taxpayers, the potential for reduced workforce participation, and questions of equity for childless individuals or those whose children are older.

3

The most common mistake students make on this question is focusing exclusively on the social benefits for children and families without adequately addressing the economic implications and practical challenges for the government. To avoid this, ensure your essay thoroughly discusses the financial feasibility, potential strain on public funds, and alternative uses for taxpayer money, even if you ultimately support the proposal.

4

For an opinion essay, employ a 'concession-rebuttal' linking strategy. Begin a paragraph by acknowledging a counter-argument using phrases such as 'While it is true that...' or 'Opponents might contend that...', then immediately transition to your stronger point with 'However, this perspective often overlooks...' or 'Nevertheless, the long-term societal gains far outweigh...'. This demonstrates a nuanced understanding and strengthens your overall argument.

5

Examiners look for a sophisticated discussion that balances the social and economic dimensions of the issue. A band 8-9 answer will not only present well-developed arguments for or against the proposal but also explore the complexities, such as potential unintended consequences, the sustainability of such a policy, or how it might be implemented fairly and effectively, demonstrating a deep analytical capacity.
