Pelawat, the other day in Part 1, we talked about three tricky mistakes with complex sentences. Now, let's look at three more common issues that could be dragging down your IELTS Writing score - and how to fix them easily! 4. Sentences That Aren't Complete Mistake: Because the data was collected from multiple sources. It may not be entirely accurate. The first part is a fragment and cannot stand alone as a complete sentence. Correct Version: Because the data was collected from multiple sources, it may not be entirely accurate. Why It's Correct: This combines both parts into one complete, grammatically correct sentence. 5. Mismatched Parts in a Sentence Mistake: The graph shows that the number of graduates increased rapidly and are stable. "Increased" and "are" don't match, making the structure inconsistent. Correct Version: The graph shows that the number of graduates increased rapidly and then remained stable. Why It's Correct: Both verbs ("increased" and "remained") are consistent and parallel in structure. 6. Unnecessary Linkers That Cause Confusion Mistake: Although the number of students increased, but the number of teachers remained the same. Using both "although" and "but" in the same sentence is redundant. Correct Version: Although the number of students increased, the number of teachers remained the same. Why It's Correct: Using just "although" is sufficient to show the contrast.
