Kanji is one of characters in Japanese which express not only sounds but also meanings. Even though some Kanji letters may have the same sound, each Kanji letter only carries one meaning, so the use of it totally erase misunderstandings. It’s poles apart with other characters, Hiragana and Katakana which can cause misunderstanding since they only express sounds but not the meanings. The example can be seen in the word こっき (kokki) which is written in Hiragana. In this way, without knowing the context, reader may get difficulty in understanding the meaning as こっき has two meanings, flag and sacrifice. However, when the word is written in Kanji, the meaning can be understood easily even without context. When it is written as 国旗 , it means flag; and when it is written as 克己 , it means sacrifice. For that reason, Kanji is commonly used in literature.

Model of an argumentative essay

Creative artists should always be given the freedom to express their own ideas (in words, pictures, music, or film) in whatever way they wish. There should be no government restrictions on what they do. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?
[The above line is the task set by the IELTS for Writing Task 2. The following is the essay. Watch the organization of ideas!]
===============================================
An opinion maintains that absolute freedom should be given to artists in order for them to explore artistic potentials as fully as they can. Government should not interfere with this intention, and should let these artistic geniuses explore things and do things as they wish in the name of the beauty of aesthetic expression. Such view, in my personal opinion, should not be encouraged. I present below two main reasons why I disagree with this opinion (= THESIS STATEMENT = inti dari argumen.)

First (transition signal), absolute freedom does more damage than good. This is true with everything, including arts. If artists have unlimited freedom in their hands, they will break some social boundaries which have been keeping order in the society. Nude poses, for example [include example], while undoubtedly constitute a pure expression that an artist would like to display, will stir chaos if performed in front of the public with strict religious codes.

Secondly, unlimited freedom may in some cases endanger the artists themselves. If they go far beyond the line of safety, they will expose themselves to risks, which may range from injuries to death. Some years ago a female artists plunged to her death when performing a happening act intended to protest the building of skyscrapers in a section of New York city [illustration]. Had the police successfully prevented her from doing that dangerous jump, the artist would have been still alive. Thus, to some extent, the role of government in limiting some aspects of life will also benefit artists.

In short [transition signal for concluding], freedom is of course important but it should always be exercised to a safe limit. The limit should be such that while it permits creative expression to flourish among artists, it still protects the public rights for enjoying decent artistic show and keeps the artists safe.

IELTS Writing 2-Good health and fitness

Recently, people become very aware of achieving good health and fitness. Many efforts are done by people to stay healthy. But some of them just lead normal life to be healthy. I believe that normal life is not enough. We need to do sports, take preventative medicine, but not necessarily special diets for some reasons.

Firstly, by doing sports we can get healthier body and fresher mind. It is proved by some research that exercising can burn calories in our body. As we know that over calories in our body can cause some diseases, such as, high blood pressure, cholesterol, heart disease, obesity, and many more. Besides physically healthy we will be also healthy mentally by exercising. Sports can be also entertainment for us. After doing our routine, exercising is a kind of pleasure to do.

Secondly, some medicines and vitamins will help us to obtain enough nutrition for our body. Sometimes we eat much but we don’t really care about the composition of the nutrition. So, to supply enough nutrition we also need some preventative medicines and vitamins. For example, vitamin C, B complex, vitamin E capsules, which are easy to get in stores.

Commonly, special diets are thought to be good. However, in my opinion special diets are unnecessary to do because engaging in special diets even make us stress with the rules. It can also bring some problems to our health if we do it in the wrong way, such as lack of nutrition.

In conclusion, I maintain that to get healthy life, doing normal life is not enough. First, we need to do sports to get healthy body and mind. Second, we also need to take preventative medicine to fulfil our nutrition, but no need to do special diets. So that we can achieve good health and fitness.

IELTS-Writing task 2 (page 31)

Nowadays, the air pollution is getting worse. It is very difficult for us to get good guality air in public areas. One of many pollutants is the cigarette smoke. So, I state that smoking should be banned in all public places.

Firstly, some researches prove that inhaling cigarette endangers people’s health. The smoke does not only cause some bad effects to the smokers’ health but also to the nonsmokers’. The researchers discover that the effect of inhaling cigarette smoke is even worse to the nonsmokers. The smoke can cause many health’s problem such as cancer, inflammation of the lungs, etc. It is also dangerous for pregnancies.

Secondly, we need legal standards to make healthier environment. By forbidding smoking in public areas, we can get fresh air to breathe. It is the government’s authority to ban people smoking in public places. In Jakarta, this kind of regulation has been made. People are not allowed to smoke in public areas, such as offices, shopping centres, and parks. Anyone who disobeys this rule should be punished to pay fine.

In addition, the individual awareness is also needed to get healthy environment. The purpose of banning people smoking in public areas can be seen by obeying the rules. The smokers should be aware that other people deserve fresh air to breathe. Without people’s awareness, the goal of the regulation cannot be achieved.

In conclusion, I would maintain that smoking should be banned in public areas, because of its danger for human’s health. In order to have better environment, the government role is needed to produce legal standards. Besides that, we also need people’s participation to be aware about this, so that we will have healthier environment to live.

Model of a chronological essay

One often wonders how an aircraft gets off the ground and flies. A simple series of aerodynamic processes enable an airplane to take off the ground. First of all, the airplane starts moving down the runway, picking up speed. As it is picking up speed, the air stream moves quickly past its wings. The wings, which are flat on the bottom and bulging on the top, splits the rushing air into two different movements. The air flow under the wings moves slower than that over the wings, building up upward pressure on the bottom surface of the wings. As the plane reaches the top speed on the runway, around 280 kilometers per hour, the pressure of air under the wings becomes strong enough to lift the craft to the air. The plane’s nose looks up, and within seconds the entire aircraft is airborne. The plane has taken off, climbing higher and higher until it reaches the cruising altitude.
