Como empezar un essay advanced

The C1 Advanced Writing exam has two writing parts, which you must complete in 90 minutes. Both parts have a word limit of between 220-260 words. We recommend getting lots of writing practice under these conditions! Part 1 is always a discursive essay. It requires you to think about arguments for and against a topic.

Your first couple of sentences should use your knowledge of context and understanding of the question to focus the essay. One tactic I have picked up is to have the ‘ thesis ’ (the statement that is the entire argument of your essay) at the end of the very first paragraph.

Find the following words in the article and then write down any new ones you didn’t know. Get the ball rolling (exp) : to start something. Lay out (v): to explain something in detail. Paraphrase (v): to say the same thing in a different way. Tie-up any loose ends (exp): to resolve issues. Play it safe (exp): to act cautiously.

The conclusion is where you tie-up any loose ends. This is an advanced piece of writing, so make sure your choice of language reflects it. You will get marked for accuracy, however, occasional errors can still be present as long as they do not impede understanding.
