﻿1
00:00:00,470 --> 00:00:08,420
‫Welcome back to your second model answer for Alt's rating test, too, and in this lesson, we're going

2
00:00:08,420 --> 00:00:13,480
‫to look at a model answer for a problem and solution type question.

3
00:00:14,330 --> 00:00:17,420
‫You remember from previous lessons, that's a problem.

4
00:00:17,420 --> 00:00:21,700
‫Solution type question requires a slightly different approach.

5
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:27,460
‫So it will be very useful for you to see a model answer for one of these question types.

6
00:00:28,010 --> 00:00:31,910
‫And here is our question that will be writing for.

7
00:00:33,030 --> 00:00:41,580
‫The Internet has transformed how we interact and live in many great ways, but has also created problems

8
00:00:41,580 --> 00:00:43,680
‫that didn't exist before.

9
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:51,660
‫What are the more serious problems caused by the Internet and what solutions could you suggest?

10
00:00:52,380 --> 00:00:58,980
‫So even before our short plan, we need to identify what type of question it is.

11
00:00:59,580 --> 00:01:01,620
‫And it's easily done here.

12
00:01:01,620 --> 00:01:06,540
‫As we can see, the key words, problems and solutions.

13
00:01:07,670 --> 00:01:14,000
‫As with the previous model answer, I'm not going to show you my plan, but we'll jump straight into

14
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:15,860
‫writing our introduction.

15
00:01:17,930 --> 00:01:25,310
‫Here is our introduction, three sentence structure, and for the first sentence, I will paraphrase

16
00:01:25,310 --> 00:01:26,120
‫like this.

17
00:01:28,030 --> 00:01:36,100
‫The way we live and communicate has changed dramatically over the last decade or so due to the increasing

18
00:01:36,100 --> 00:01:37,750
‫use of the Internet.

19
00:01:38,500 --> 00:01:42,700
‫So what phrases and vocabulary did I paraphrase?

20
00:01:43,150 --> 00:01:51,280
‫Well, honestly, I didn't paraphrase too many pieces of vocabulary, interact, turned in to communicate

21
00:01:51,730 --> 00:01:54,160
‫and transform, turned into change.

22
00:01:54,730 --> 00:02:01,660
‫Really, the rest of the sentence is my understanding of Internet use over the last few years, which

23
00:02:01,660 --> 00:02:05,370
‫is also okay as long as it relates to the question.

24
00:02:06,370 --> 00:02:10,300
‫Let's move on to our second sentence, which is our plan.

25
00:02:11,380 --> 00:02:19,240
‫In this essay, I will explore the problems associated with the growing use of the Internet and suggest

26
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,500
‫possible solutions for them.

27
00:02:22,210 --> 00:02:30,130
‫I've highlighted our key opening phrase in this essay and the final part of the sentence and suggest

28
00:02:30,130 --> 00:02:35,470
‫possible solutions for them can also be copied into your plan sentence.

29
00:02:36,220 --> 00:02:43,780
‫Let's move on to our third sentence, which is outline now, not read through the whole sentence, but

30
00:02:43,780 --> 00:02:51,520
‫you can see that I've only highlighted the topic, which is Internet use for a problem and solution

31
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:52,180
‫question.

32
00:02:52,390 --> 00:02:55,060
‫You can pretty much copy this sentence.

33
00:02:55,060 --> 00:02:56,080
‫Exactly.

34
00:02:56,380 --> 00:03:02,140
‫Replacing Internet use with what ever topic or problem you are presented with.

35
00:03:03,890 --> 00:03:07,130
‫Let's take a final read through the whole introduction.

36
00:03:08,450 --> 00:03:16,310
‫The way we live and communicate has changed dramatically over the last decade or so due to the increasing

37
00:03:16,310 --> 00:03:23,810
‫use of the Internet, in this essay I will explore the problems associated with the growing use of the

38
00:03:23,810 --> 00:03:27,470
‫Internet and suggest possible solutions for them.

39
00:03:28,190 --> 00:03:34,310
‫Firstly, I will share an issue related with Internet use and a viable solution.

40
00:03:34,610 --> 00:03:40,740
‫And secondly, I will discuss another related problem and suggest a possible solution.

41
00:03:41,570 --> 00:03:46,700
‫So that is all for our very solid, well worded introduction.

42
00:03:47,420 --> 00:03:50,840
‫Now it's time to move on to our supporting paragraph.

43
00:03:51,020 --> 00:03:58,280
‫And you may remember that the supporting paragraph sentence types are slightly different for problem

44
00:03:58,280 --> 00:03:59,960
‫and solution questions.

45
00:04:01,140 --> 00:04:07,530
‫So in a supporting paragraph for a problem solution question, you'll remember that we have a topic

46
00:04:07,530 --> 00:04:16,440
‫sentence, a support sentence for detail, and then we suggest a solution and the result that that solution

47
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:17,190
‫will bring.

48
00:04:17,670 --> 00:04:24,240
‫Every time you write a supporting paragraph for a problem solution question, you can use these four

49
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:31,380
‫sentence types to create a full paragraph, but you need to make sure that you are writing enough to

50
00:04:31,380 --> 00:04:34,680
‫get to the 250 word count Mark.

51
00:04:35,460 --> 00:04:38,430
‫Let's take a look at my first supporting paragraph.

52
00:04:40,220 --> 00:04:48,740
‫To begin with, it's clear that in some ways, the Internet makes people less sociable as technology

53
00:04:48,740 --> 00:04:50,130
‫becomes more mobile.

54
00:04:50,450 --> 00:04:57,350
‫People spend all their free time on the Internet and less time talking and meeting their friends and

55
00:04:57,350 --> 00:04:57,860
‫peers.

56
00:04:58,670 --> 00:05:05,450
‫One solution to this problem could be to limit the amount of time people can spend on the Internet per

57
00:05:05,450 --> 00:05:05,810
‫day.

58
00:05:06,470 --> 00:05:12,980
‫As a result of that, people will spend more time meeting their family and friends and live happier,

59
00:05:12,980 --> 00:05:14,530
‫more fulfilling lives.

60
00:05:16,140 --> 00:05:24,360
‫So here is my solution, which is to limit screen time, and the result is that I believe people will

61
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:25,830
‫have happier lives.

62
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,760
‫Let's take a look at my second supporting paragraph.

63
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:38,550
‫As with supporting paragraph one, I will offer another solution for a different problem here.

64
00:05:39,350 --> 00:05:40,600
‫Let's have a read through.

65
00:05:41,630 --> 00:05:47,650
‫Many people feel that the Internet is an unsafe place, especially for children.

66
00:05:48,500 --> 00:05:56,420
‫It is very difficult to monitor and control what we see when we use the Internet or what our children

67
00:05:56,420 --> 00:05:57,500
‫are using it for.

68
00:05:58,250 --> 00:06:06,540
‫A possible resolution to this issue could be to ban certain websites from working on our computers.

69
00:06:07,220 --> 00:06:15,020
‫Consequently, many people will feel much safer using the Internet and families will have protection

70
00:06:15,020 --> 00:06:21,510
‫from websites and content that are inappropriate for children before moving on.

71
00:06:21,530 --> 00:06:26,510
‫I'd like to point out a few key things about this supporting paragraph.

72
00:06:26,690 --> 00:06:35,240
‫And firstly, both our topic and support sentences are complex sentences and we can see that because

73
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:36,070
‫of the comma.

74
00:06:36,530 --> 00:06:41,460
‫Let's quickly mention the phrases in language that I have underlined.

75
00:06:41,750 --> 00:06:51,020
‫So both a possible resolution to this issue and consequently can be pretty much copied into your supporting

76
00:06:51,020 --> 00:06:51,890
‫paragraphs.

77
00:06:52,460 --> 00:06:59,600
‫They're both great ways to start your solution and result sentences in the second supporting paragraph.

78
00:06:59,840 --> 00:07:03,190
‫So do give them a go in your own essay.

79
00:07:04,250 --> 00:07:06,750
‫That's all for support in paragraph two.

80
00:07:06,980 --> 00:07:09,740
‫Let's take a look at our conclusion.

81
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:17,820
‫As with the other sections for our essay, answering a problem solution question, the conclusion is

82
00:07:17,820 --> 00:07:19,530
‫also slightly different.

83
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:26,580
‫And you might remember that from the master structure that I gave you a few lessons previously and read

84
00:07:26,580 --> 00:07:28,700
‫is our summarizing sentence.

85
00:07:29,010 --> 00:07:35,420
‫And in blue is where I tell you who I think should be fixing this problem.

86
00:07:36,340 --> 00:07:37,950
‫Let's have a read through now.

87
00:07:39,230 --> 00:07:47,360
‫In conclusion, the problems associated with the World Wide Web are clearly becoming a major issue in

88
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:48,500
‫many countries.

89
00:07:49,190 --> 00:07:58,340
‫In my opinion, it is the individuals and parents responsibility to make sure the Internet is used responsibly.

90
00:07:59,030 --> 00:08:06,680
‫So do remember in the final sentence of your conclusion for a problem solution question, you need to

91
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:13,220
‫clearly illustrate who should be fixing the problem that is addressed in your question.

92
00:08:14,170 --> 00:08:21,940
‫So that brings us to the end of our second model answer for Alt's writing test two, and it also brings

93
00:08:21,940 --> 00:08:26,890
‫to a close the lessons on Alt's writing task one and to.

94
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:31,660
‫Do complete the assignment coming up after this video.

95
00:08:31,830 --> 00:08:38,570
‫And also, I've got one more quick lesson to give you some overall tips for writing.

96
00:08:39,330 --> 00:08:44,220
‫If you've got any questions, please drop me a message or use a Q&A feature.

97
00:08:44,790 --> 00:08:46,100
‫Best of luck and see you soon.
