Nowadays many young people in work force change their jobs or careers every few years. What do you think are the reasons for this? Do the advantages out-weigh disadvantages?

It seems youngsters in modern society change jobs more frequently than their predecessorsdid. The contributing factors to this phenomenon, which I shall explore in this essay, are multi-faceted. Generally, I believe the merits outweigh the demerits.

Young people change their jobs more often due to individual and social factors. To start with, unlike the previous generations who valued more about job security, young people in modern society pay more attention to job satisfaction. In other words, they keep changing their jobs to find what suits those suit both their personalities and abilities. Besides, in a country where the welfare is poor, like in China, it is understandable that many employees resign for higher-paid jobs. Meanwhile, social factors also play a role in leading the behaviors of the young workforce. The progress made in transportation and telecommunication has made the cost of changing jobs lower than before, facilitating the flow of workforce within the nation and even the world. Similarly, Also, when the economy is performing well, which means there are more job oppo rtunities are exist in the job market, people are more likely to switch jobs.

Both the individual and society can gain benefits from job-hopping as long as it is not too frequent and blindly done. Through constant job-changing, thean employee can explore his or her their potentials,enrichtheir workingwork and life experiences, and find out the most suitable jobs or careers. The loss of talents within a company can also compel impel the company to reform and improve welfare,for their employees such as providing their employees with a clear and transparent ladder of promotion, and enhancing job training for their employeesand thus alleviating employees’ impulse to leave of leaving. In the end, it will lead to further progress of the economy and society as a whole. Of course, when someone changes jobs too frequently and without a clear career plan in mind their minds, there will be no career development. itwill certainly exert a negative impact on their career development. However, proper decision-making can alleviate any negative effects. the baneful effect can be alleviated once it is well controlled.

In conclusion, young people change their jobs for personal and social reasons. The effect, in most cases, can be more positive.

Tip for the day

Writing an IELTS Essay Introduction
Writing the Introduction
In the writing for task 2, you must write an IELTS essay introduction, but you only have 40 minutes.

In this time you need to analyze the question, brainstorm ideas to write about, formulate an essay plan, and then write your response.

Even for a native writer of English, this is a lot to do in 40 minutes!

So you need to use your time carefully. You need a good IELTS essay introduction, but one thing you do not want to do is spend too long writing it so that you end up rushing your paragraphs.

Your paragraphs are the most important thing as they contain all your supporting arguments and demonstrate how good you are at organizing your ideas.

You therefore need a method to write your IELTS essay introduction fairly quickly. When you write an introduction, you should make sure you do two things:

1. Write a sentence introducing the topic and giving some background facts about it
2. Tell the reader what you are going to be writing about this is the answer to the task question and also serves as your thesis

How you do this will vary depending on the question, but here is an example:
____________________________________________
Example 1:
Question:
Blood sports have become a hot topic for debate in recent years. As society develops it is increasingly seen as an uncivilized activity and cruel to the helpless animals that are killed. Blood sports should be banned.
To what extent to you agree or disagree?

Sample IELTS essay introduction:
Despite the fact that killing animals for sport is popular in modern society, it remains a contentious issue. I believe that blood sports are cruel and uncivilized and so should be banned as soon as possible.
____________________________________________
As you can see, the first sentence consists of the topic plus some background facts on the topic which have been taken from the rubric.

The second sentence then gives the writers opinion and tells us that in the essay the writer will be arguing the reasons why it is cruel. This serves as your thesis. You must always have a thesis.

Paraphrasing
Another important point - don't copy from the question! You must paraphrase (put it in your own words). To do this you can use synonyms and move the order of the sentence around.
Using some of the same words is acceptable, but don't copy whole phrases.
You can see how the question above has been paraphrased. All the information is from the question, but it has been written in a different way and has not been copied.

Further Examples
Example 2:
Question:
Science and technology have helped the world make many advances. The Arts, such as painting, theatre and dance, to name just three examples, however, are also valuable.
What things do the Arts provide to the world that Science and Technology do not?

Sample IELTS essay introduction:
Societies have developed rapidly over time due to the many advances in science and technology. However, the arts are also very important and provide our world with many things such as creative thinking and emotional control that science and technology cannot.
____________________________________________

Example 3:
Question:
According to a recent study, the more time people use the Internet, the less time they spend with real human beings. Some people say that instead of seeing the Internet as a way of opening up new communication possibilities world wide, we should be concerned about the effect this is having on social interaction.
How far do you agree with this opinion?

Sample IELTS essay introduction:
A recent study has shown that as people use the Internet more, they are spending less time with human beings. I believe that although this has increased the communication around the world in positive ways, it has also led to negative effects on the day-to-day social interaction of human beings.
____________________________________________
Example 4:
Question:
Unemployment has become an increasing problem in the recent past.
What factors contribute to an increase in unemployment and what steps can be taken to solve the problem?

Sample IELTS essay introduction:
Over recent years, the level of unemployment has been increasing at an alarming rate in many countries around the world. Among the factors that contribute to this is overpopulation of a nation and under-qualification of people. To remedy such problem, governments should create policies on family planning as well as fund institutions to better the methods of education.
____________________________________________
Example 5:
Question:
Some people think children in secondary school should study international news as part of the curriculum. Others think that this would be a waste of time as there are already too many subjects for children to concentrate on.
Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

Sample IELTS essay introduction:
Awareness of international news is valuable especially when people aim to be globally competitive as individuals or as a nation.While some people are of the opinion that it would be useful to include international news as a subject in the school curriculum, others believe that this is a waste of students time because they are already overloaded with subjects to study. In my opinion, knowledge international news is important but need not be included in the curriculum.
