Sacrifice Is Everything š¤ (Read Itšš»)
š„ŗSacrifices are necessary for success because everything comes at a cost, and the more youāre willing to give up, the greater your potential reward.
ā¤ļøāš©¹Sacrifices help you detach emotionally from things you donāt really need.
šThey build willpower and set you apart from those overly attached to unimportant things.
š„
Learning the power of sacrifice motivates you to put in the effort to achieve your goals.
šSacrifice decreases the role of luck in your success.
š°It can lead to comfort and wealth.
š©Avoiding sacrifices can block opportunities and rewards.
šÆSuccess demands sacrifices, so focus on efficiency and accountability.

Q: The internet means people do not need to travel to foreign countries to understand how others live.
To what extent do you agree or disagree?
š” Answer:
The growth of information available on the internet in recent decades has prompted some to question the value of international travel. In my opinion, travelling to other countries is a rewarding experience, but I am largely in agreement with this position.
Those who still advocate travelling abroad highlight how important the experience can be. This argument centres around both its value in itself as well as its utility. Most travellers can justify the time and money by the enjoyable experience and discovery of another country, including their people and traditions. These experiences are also formative. For example, someone who grows up in a wealthy European nation might not have seen how people live in developing or more ethnically diverse countries. They will therefore have a fuller understanding of the rest of the world if they travel a lot and this could impact both their political views and their actions later in life.
Nonetheless, travel is no longer as important as it used to be because it is now possible to learn about countries online. The experience is still valuable but online information is actually likely to be more accurate and comprehensive. An individual who wants to research life in Vietnam, for instance, can scroll through lifestyle blogs, read the local online versions of magazines, watch videos of both foreigners and residents from all over the country, follow individuals from a wide segment of society on Instagram, and generally get a good sense for the country without ever setting foot there. In the past, limited access to technology in those developing countries might have made it impossible to understand how locals live, but that is no longer a problem.
In conclusion, the information that can be found on the internet has greatly diminished the importance of the experience of travelling to other countries. Each individual must nonetheless decide for themselves whether it is still a worthwhile expense.

š«” Hi guys
Another grammar post
A very useful grammar structure that is particularly handy for expanding on ideas is the conditional structure.
Conditionals are basically sentences that use the conjunction 'if' (there are a few other types including 'unless' sentences).
There are five main kinds of conditionals. These are known as zero, first, second, third and mixed. The good news is that for IELTS essays, you probably only need to learn two or three of them.
The structure for the zero conditional is 'If' + S + present tense, S + present tense. This structure is used to talk about facts. Here's an example zero conditional sentence.
'If a country is poor, there is usually more crime.'
The structure for 1st conditional is 'If' + S + present tense, S + future. This structure is used to talk about cause and effect relationships. For example;
'If a country doesn't invest in education, it's population will not be able to escape poverty.
In rare cases, you may need 2nd conditional. The structure for this is 'If' + S + past, S + would verb. This one is used to describe imaginary situations. For example;
If my country had less corruption, it would be able to deal with CoVid-19 better.
Honestly, trying to use 3rd and Mixed conditionals in essays is a recipe for mistakes. People often learn these fancy structures and try to force them into their essays. I've never seen them used naturally - not even once. In other words, don't even try to use these for your essays.
In summary, conditionals are a great way to show advanced grammar ability and expand on ideas. Just use the basic conditionals though as the complex ones will get you in trouble.

Q: The charts compare the amount of water used for agriculture, industry and homes around the world, and water use in Brazil and the Democratic Republic of Congo.
š” Answer:
It is clear that global water needs rose significantly between 1900 and 2000, and that agriculture accounted for the largest proportion of water used. We can also see that water consumption was considerably higher in Brazil than in the Congo.
In 1900, around 500kms of water was used by the agriculture sector worldwide. The figures for industrial and domestic water consumption stood at around one fifth of that amount. By 2000, global water use for agriculture had increased to around 3000km3, industrial water use had risen to just under half that amount, and domestic consumption had reached approximately 500km3.
In the year 2000, the populations of Brazil and the Congo were 176 million and 5.2 million respectively. Water consumption per person in Brazil, at 359ms, was much higher than that in the Congo, at only 8ms, and this could be explained by the fact that Brazil had 265 times more irrigated land.
