One of the common mistakes from the little ducklings would be that they are totally confused with arguments and facts.
In fact, the examiner does not have as long as half an hour on your essay at all!!!:'(, which means, you need to put the
most important information, in other words, your key arguments in the very first place. However, some of the candidates
write sentences like this:
"It is widely believed that most teachers in China work more than 10 hours per day."
This is a grammatically perfect sentence, however, you may leave your readers wondering:
"what the hell are you talking about?" If you work more than 10 hours, then it is true, you donnot need anybody to BELIEVE in this!
In other words, try to make your point clear, this sentence could be much more clear if you talk about the QUALITY and FEELING:
It is commonly believed that teachers in China are excessively burdened with school work and teaching.
NB: Be aware of two fallicies when writing the topic sentence:
1. Being too general
2. Being too specific
