    Решил создать тему, где буду выкладывать повторяющиеся темы эссе.
    Темы, которые будут изложены на 80% могут попасться и вам. Есть источники,выкладывающие информацию о наиболее повторяющихся вопросах по PTE.

    Первое эссе написанное по быстрому пока был на работе.

    Тема:
    Learning a new language at an early age is helpful for children. Do you think it has a positive influence on their future development or has some adverse effects?

    Эссе:
    The question whether learning a new language at an early age is advantageous or not requires serious deliberation. While some believe the above-mentioned fact has a significant negative impact, I believe it has more advantages than disadvantages. In the following paragraphs I will explain my point of view further.

    At the outset, I would like to acknowledge that studying a new language while you do not familiar with other subjects has several negatives. The most important of which is if you begin to learn a foreign language, you may adjust your brain for humanitarian subjects, not technical ones. In addition, your preference to humanitarian subjects at school cannot be ignored. For instance, I began to learn a new language at my childhood and when I went to school I preferred all language subjects but tried to avoid all technical subjects like math.

    However, the advantages far outweigh these few disadvantages. It is impossible to ignore that learning a new language in childhood make your mind broader and enhance your brain. Furthermore, going to school with obtained knowledge makes this an even more beneficial proposition. This fact is supported by the several international studies that highlight pros of knowledge foreign languages.

    In conclusion, I would like to reiterate that studying languages at an early age has several adverse effects and therefore any decision to learning a language or not should only be taken after serious consideration.

    Лично сам думаю, надо бы слова разнообразнее использовать. Но на ум не приходят пока эссе пишу из-за того,что время поджимает, хотя каждое эссе заканчиваю за 15 минут :worried:

    Тема:

    What are the advantages and disadvantages of living in an era in which new things are constantly being invented?

    OR

    Talk about pros and cons of this era as it is full of daily inventions.

    Эссе:
    The question whether is life in a period when state-of-the-art technologies constantly invented advantageous or not requires serious deliberation. While some believe that living in that era has a significant negative impact, I believe it has more advantages than disadvantages. In the following paragraphs i will explain my point of view further.

    At the outset, I would like to acknowledge leading a life in the fast-changing world has several negatives. The most important of which is that contemporary gadgets make us be dependent on them. In addition, the negative impact of them on our health cannot be ignored. For instance, one of my friends had a disease of cancer because he used his mobile phone too much. Even when he slept he put above his head.

    However, the advantages far outweigh these few disadvantages. It is impossible to ignore that using latest technologies in our mundane life alleviated our existence and we can save a lot of time via using them. Furthermore, time-saving fact makes this an even more beneficial proportion. That fact is supported by the several international studies that highlight pros of using state-of-the-art technologies and updated software which was installed on them.

    In conclusion, I would like to reiterate that using latest technologies beyond the norms may be a cause of some diseases which can be evaluated as a disadvantage. Hence, any decision using them a lot should only be taken after serious consideration.

    Тема:

    The claim that animals have rights has been a matter of debate since 1970s. Are zoos helping or hurting our animals? Should zoos be banned? Do you agree or disagree?

    Эссе:
    The question that should zoos be banned requires serious consideration. While it is possible to claim that are hurting our animals, in my opinion, zoos take care of animals and provide necessary things for animals sustenance there. In the following paragraphs, I will further explain my point of view with suitable examples and arguments.

    There are several reasons why I disagree that animals are not in safe at zoos. The most important one is most animals feel themselves as in their natural home while being at the zoo. This happens because people try to create natural conditions for animals and not to mention that for each kind of animal people create conditions according to particular animal’s nature. To better illustrate this point you can observe penguins at the zoo, the natural habitat of which reconstructed there. Even temperature is regulated by people in order to create natural conditions for this type of animal.

    Furthermore, living in the zoo for animals is also about being in safe. In this context, safe cannot be guaranteed for them in nature or in places of their habitat. But in the zoo, they are in a cage or in a big area only with their species. For instance, herbivorous animals will not be a prey of the wild animals.

    In conclusion, I would reiterate that living in zoos is beneficial for a lot of animals because necessary comfort was provided to them without any risk for their life and that is why I strongly disagree with the misguided belief that animals can be hurt at zoos or it is dangerous for them to living there.

    Тема:

    Education is not a luxury, but a basic human right and as such should be free for everyone, irrespective of personal wealth. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

    Эссе:
    The question that education must be free for everyone or not requires serious consideration. While it is possible to claim that free education means providing basic human rights, in my opinion, higher education must be available for the particular group of people. In the following paragraphs, I will further explain my point of view with suitable examples and arguments.

    There are several reasons why I disagree that education must be for everyone. The most important one is maybe a person does not want to have any education and want to dedicate himself to the sport or another sphere where education is not necessary. He can realize himself better in fields like arts, dancing and so on. For instance, my brother didn’t go to university and became a martial artist and reached quite a high level and he is satisfied with his life.

    Furthermore, free education is also about having an impact on a country’s economy. In this context, paid education is one of the economy’s vital part. Because when education is paid, the country has its own benefits from that and it makes the economy stronger. For instance, if no one pay for education, sooner or later, it has a significant impact on the economy of country and education will lose its value.

    In conclusion, I would reiterate that free education has its own obvious cons and that is why I strongly disagree with the misguided belief that everyone must have a right for education without any costs.

    There is no need for newspapers in the modern world. To what extent do you agree or disagree with that statement?

    Эссе:
    The notion that newspapers are not in demand nowadays, requires serious consideration. While it is understandable why some would oppose this, I strongly agree with this notion. In the following paragraphs, I will further explain my point of view with suitable examples and arguments.

    There are several reasons why I agree that people do not need newspapers, in present days, as it was earlier. The most important one is internet resources, social networks spread all news faster than newspapers can be disseminated. Besides that, publishing newspapers is a money consuming process while posting a news in a social network can be done in few clicks. In my own experience, all my colleagues read any news from digital resources rather than from hardcopy like a newspaper.

    Furthermore, creating newspapers is also about chopping down a lot of trees. In this context, creating newspapers has a significant impact on nature. So, using internet resources can also save the nature and prevent tree-destroying.

    In conclusion, I would reiterate that necessity In newspapers disappeared and that is why I strongly disagree with the misguided belief that need in newspapers still exists.

    What are the pros and cons of staying connected on social media 24 hours a day?

    Эссе:
    The question of being available in social media 24 hours a day requires serious deliberation. While some believe it has a significant negative impact, I believe it has more advantages than disadvantages. In the following paragraphs, I will further explain my point of view.

    At the outset, I would acknowledge that staying connected to the social network has several negatives. The most important of which is wasting time. In addition, negative consequences to human’s psychology cannot be ignored. For instance, if people spend their time more in social media, which is virtual life, in comparison with real life, they might have difficulties in conversations with people in real world.

    However, the advantages far outweigh these few disadvantages. It is impossible to ignore that via social media people can get the latest news even faster than they could via TV. Furthermore, establishing relations which further could be a cause of family creation makes this an even more beneficial proposition. This fact is supported by the several international studies that highlight a number of families created after people had an acquaintance in social networks.

    In conclusion, I would like to reiterate that spending a lot of time in social media has several disadvantages and therefore any decision related to tying your life with social networks should only be taken after serious consideration.

    Тема:

    Do you support death penalty/capital punishment?

    Эссе:
    Laws and punishment are vital instruments in the functioning of human society. One of the most feared punishment that usually deters even the hardened criminals is the death penalty. However, I do not support capital punishment due to a number of reasons that I shall discuss in the following paragraphs.

    It is understandable why some people support the death penalty. Some crimes such as murder are so extreme that ending the perpetrator’s life seems to be the only fair justice. It is also felt that giving such an extreme punishment will deter others from committing the same crime. For instance, lawmakers in a majority of countries fear that the murder rate in the country will spike if the death penalty is abolished.

    However, the death penalty in my view removes the distinction between a criminal and the state. It is said that an eye for an eye will leave the world blind. It is expected that a society is matured and generous enough to not support the barbaric notion of blood for blood. Furthermore, death penalty once imposed cannot be undone. There is always the chance that there is a miscarriage of justice and as a result, an innocent person might end up losing his life. Giving a death sentence also equates to giving up any hope of reform or change in the person. But, the history is full of people who turned their lives over after committing grievous crimes. Therefore, in my view life imprisonment should be the maximum punishment given for any crime.

    In conclusion, while it is understandable why people justify the death penalty, I believe a slightly more lenient punishment like life imprisonment is more fair as it keeps the hope of reform alive and also maintains the distinction between a barbaric regime and a modern generous state.

    What does generosity mean to you?

    Эссе:
    Everybody can have their own understanding of what generosity is. But common principles of generosity is to help everybody and it doesn't matter if a human has a reward or not for being helpful. In the following paragraphs, I will further explain what does generosity means for me.

    Generosity can contain in itself some kind of material help. It is when you help the human with whom you are not familiar with giving him a certain amount of money or cover his expenses which he can’t cover by himself. In my own experience, I helped several people when they need some money or when they couldn’t find any food.

    Besides this, generosity for me is a kind heart which has not any connectedness to the material side of this notion. It is when human want to help other people and he does not expect anything in as the reward for his help. In other words, help which is free of charge. I think it also depends on the character of the human.

    In conclusion, generosity is something that people born with. You can’t become generous as years passed if it does not exist in you, in your heart and soul. So the notion of generosity cannot belong to everyone in this world.

    Should individuals limit the use of cars and use alternatives to protect the environment?

    Эссе:
    The question that people should reduce usage of cars and prefer eco-friendly alternatives requires serious consideration. While it is possible to claim that alternatives are not spread enough, in my opinion in close future humanity will use a lot more vehicles which do not damage the environment. In the following paragraphs, I will further explain my point of view with suitable examples and arguments.

    There are several reasons why I agree that using transport, which will not has a negative impact on the environment, is more preferable. The most important one is the air will not be polluted by gas emissions. And that is one of the options how we can save the nature. In my own experience, our city became very contaminated because people use a lot of vehicles which works on fuel.

    Furthermore, using eco-friendly transport is also about money saving. In this context, people can save a lot of money because vehicles which do not require the petrol works by consumption an electricity. The epitome of those cars can be Tesla. For instance, the above-mentioned cars do not contaminate air and use electricity which is quite cheaper than petrol.

    In conclusion, I would reiterate that usage of cars which are working on fuel has a significant negative impact on nature and, as a result, on people’s health and that is why I strongly agree that people should use alternatives if they want to save the nature and lead a healthy life.

    Does the advent of the Internet change the role of teachers? What is your opinion on the subject?

    Эссе:
    The question that with the appearance of the Internet teacher's role changed requires serious consideration. While it is possible to claim that, nowadays, students can have online education without the contribution of teachers, in my opinion, live conversation with the teacher is very important. In the following paragraphs, I will further explain my point of view with suitable examples and arguments.

    There are several reasons why I strongly disagree that the Internet can supplant teachers in the field of education. The most important one is without live conversation with a person, who teaches you, the effect of education might not be appropriate. The teacher can share his own experience with you, which is very valuable while using the Internet you cannot obtain. In my own experience, I have got a lot of knowledge from teachers in the fields which are related not only to the particular domain.

    Furthermore, gaining knowledge from a real person is also about communication. In this context, students can improve their personal skills like communication. Because with the Internet you cannot talk and even if you have the possibility this chance is only to make your talk via online messages. You cannot see real emotions or share your own feelings about the topic. For instance, if the student is an extrovert it is very important for such type of human to share his emotions and feelings even if this is the process of education. He cannot do that via online.

    In conclusion, I would reiterate that the role of teachers is very significant in the process of education and that is why I strongly disagree with the misguided belief that the role of teachers could be superceded in the future.

    In many countries students take a year off after finishing school and work or travel during this period. Should students take a gap year before attending universities? What are the advantages and disadvantages of it?

    Эссе:
    The question of whether students must take a gap year before going to university is advantageous or not requires serious deliberation. While some believe a year of rest has the significant negative impact, I believe it has more advantages than disadvantages. In the following paragraphs, I will further explain my point of view.

    At the outset, I would acknowledge that break in education has several negatives. The most important of which is previous knowledge can be forgotten. In addition, a disappearance of the willing to study cannot be ignored. For instance, even after three months of the summer rest student’s desire to learn something can vanish.

    However, the advantages far outweigh these few disadvantages. It is impossible to ignore that by travelling or working after finishing school can give students the unique experience. Furthermore, the knowledge which they obtain during the above-mentioned activities makes this an even more beneficial proposition. This fact is supported by the several international studies that highlight the importance of travelling or gaining work experience before attending universities.

    In conclusion, I would like to reiterate that taking a break in education has several disadvantages and therefore any decision which is related to taking a gap year should only be taken after serious consideration.

    Эти эссе тянут примерно на 6.5, максимум будет уровень 7 если не будут повторяться одни и те же слова.
    Из плюсов - то, что у вас есть одинаковая универсальная структура и достаточно быстро работают мозги и пальцы.
    Что улучшить на стабильную 8+:
    1. Синонимы по наиболее часто встречающимся словам, больше двух раз одно слово лучше не употреблять.
    2. Советую так же как и со структурой подобрать универсальных академических слов подлиннее.
    3. Слишком простые предложения. Обязательно почитайте про compound/ complex sentences, про то, как в них ставить правильно запятые и где. В эссе на 8 более 65% предложений должны быть предложения сложные, а еще лучше еще больше. Можно 3-4 универсальных структуры разучить и везде использовать.
    4. Использовать Grammarly для проверки ошибок. Я использовала бесплатную версию. На экзамене стабильно получала больше 80, при том Grammarly мне показывал не больше 5 advanced issues, ошибок в спеллинге или других каких небыло. Если у вас скорость написания эссе максимум 15 минут, 5 advanced issues максимум и компаунд/комплекс предложения с разнообразным вокэбьюлари, то у вас восемь и больше.

    В большинстве центров где я сдавала очень жесткие клавиатуры, поэтому тренироваться надо на таких же.

    @Ksy , спасибо за советы. Grammarly,кстати, использую. Скоро уже пол года как. Выдаёт тоже по 5-6 advanced issues, правда и сам grammarly иногда ошибками грешит.
    Кстати, по поводу клавиатур заметил тоже самое, что и вы. Не в курсе случаем, после запятых пробел ставить нужно или нет? Так как на экзамене я ставил пробел после запятых и точек, и он засчитывал эти пробелы как слово.

    Еще можно улучшить структуру.
    Интрадакшн. Первое предложение парафрейз. Второе предложение - стейтмент где сразу же выражается personal opinion.

    The question of whether it is advantageous or not for students to take a gap year before going to university requires a serious deliberation. While some believe that a year of rest may bring a significant negative impact on the academic process, I strongly believe there are more benefits BECAUSE 1. THIS and 2. THAT.

    После because я сразу писала две причины через and. В самом начале вы тратите минуту на то, чтобы подумать сказать я считаю что все неправы, а я прав потому что то-то и то-то. После, в последующих боди параграфах вы развиваете две эти мысли и пишите примеры - по одной мысли на каждый. Если предложения сложные, то на боди параграф их хватает всего три. В первом расширяете мысль(THIS), растягиваете. Вторым предложением может идти примерб длинный и кучерявый (ПРИМЕР СТРУКТУРЫ примера: Например, в Австралии высокие штрафы за нарушение правил дорожного движения, и после того как это правило было введено в других странах, таких как Индонезия и Малайзия, данная мера помогла сократить уровень правонарушений.) Потом еще одно средней длины предложение, что-нибудь типа In addition to this,
    Потом второй абзац по той же схеме с другими словами...

    By the way, на курсах нас учили что никаких отступов когда начинается новый параграф. Между параграфами должна быть одна линия пустая - пробел.

    Вот как я сейчас сделала. После запятых всегда пробел. После точек - всегда пробел. После : и ; пробел. Перед запятыми и точками - ошибка ставить пробел, они идут сразу после слова.

    В вашем конкретном случае нужно компаунд/комплекс позубрить - без этого не надо ждать чуда выше 7. Так же хромает местами Word order. И еще никогда не будет лишним ввернуть Present Perfect. Various tenses may add value to your writing.

    Не надо усложнять и умничать, расслабьтесь, вы не на Айэлтс. Немного универсальных академических слов, синонимы и простые мысли.

    При первой сдаче PTE получил 65+ по письму, притом что структуры данной вообще не придерживался. В этот раз думаю вдобавок ко всему структуру добавить.
    Сколько раз вы сдавали PTE и на какой балл? Если на 79+ то долго готовились?

    много раз сдавала, почти столько же, сколько Айэлтс )), где мой самый высокий результат был 888 и 7 за райтинг
    из них раза три точно не хватало суммарно 3 балла до всех 79+
    один раз решила послушать совета и расположить микрофон напротив губ и получила меньше 79 по спикинг, по остальным больше 80
    один раз сделала паузу почти на две секунды в discribe image и получила 77 по спикинг
    был один результат с меньше 79 по райтинг из всех результатов, в то время как остальные были норм
    стабильным был только спикинг - его с 60 до 90 догнала за месяц, ну опять же, исключая два случая выше всегда было ровно 90, при enabling skills lower than 80...

    когда я писала всякий бред без структуры что в голову придет, то тоже было 80+, но для стабильности результата нужна структура и все то, что написано в предыдущих сообщениях внимательно перечитать и сделать

    а это совершенно неважно!
    ведь вне зависимости от варианта вопроса вы во втором предложении интродакшн пишете I strongly believe
    и далее, в конклюжн и в тексте тоже косвенно специальными фразами выражаете свое мнение
    я поищу мои ессе, объясню свой шаблон и мои универсальные фразы
    ну сами подумайте - в интродакшн вы 1. Перефразируете 2. Делаете стейтмент, (думаете одну минуту) и в том же предложении пишете почему because this and that. Далее уже не мучаетесь откуда взять идеи, разворачиваете this and that.
    opinion - I believe _____ because this and that
    advantages - I believe that advantages overweight disadvantagies because this and that
    discussion - I believe that main reasons (or whatever) for ______ because this and that

    это универсальная структура сложного второго предложения, она помогает вам сразу определить что будет в боди. Далее вы просто используете linking words для того чтобы делать стейтменты и заворачивать мысль куда вам надо

    у меня вагон советов, обращайтесь )

    знаю точно, что нужно сделать чтобы раскачать спикинг до 90, что можно улучшить в райтинг
    лисенинг и ридинг - это те секции, где вам лично придется скурить словарь Oxford Collocations на 900 страниц, читать/анализировать академические статьи и слушать, слушать, слушать.....

    Ksy, конечно, если вы можете, то поделитесь, это очень важный опыт, который так сразу не отыщешь в интернете и у репетиторов.
