Diagnostic evidence
Without public benefit or long-term risk, the reason for government funding is incomplete.
Task 2 question guide
Scientific-research funding prompts need why public money should intervene.
This IELTS Task 2 question should not start with memorising a model essay. First decide who the prompt concerns, what it compares, and whether it asks for cause, evaluation, or trade-off.
Diagnose the prompt before writing the full essay.
Common trap
Only saying science is important without explaining why the market would not invest.
What to revise after checking
Write one funding chain: research type -> market gap -> public benefit -> accountability limit.
What to ask while reading the prompt
First decide whether the prompt asks about medical research, basic science, business innovation, or national interest.
- Whether public benefit is specific
- Whether market gap is explained
- Whether long-term uncertainty is handled

Writing checker
使用 IELTS Writing checker 时，分数之外还要看主卡分点。更有用的是找出 Task Response、Coherence、Lexical Resource 或 Grammar 中最影响训练的主卡分点。
Government topic
IELTS Task 2 government topic 容易写成 government should do more。先诊断政策目标、预算取舍和结果链。
Task 2 outline critique
IELTS Task 2 开写前先做 outline critique，用 10 分钟检查题目回应、立场平衡、主体段证据和展开链，避免写完整篇后才发现方向偏薄。
Business topic
IELTS Task 2 business topic 常涉及广告、企业责任和消费者选择。先诊断企业、政府和个人边界。先限定角度，再选例子。
Science funding no public benefit
示范 science funding essay 为什么只写 science important 不够，以及如何连接公共资金和社会收益。带着原文完成检查，再用重写验证是否真的改善。
Social media children
Social media and children 这类 Task 2 题目容易写成泛泛危害。先诊断 age group、platform use 和 consequence 是否清楚。
Space exploration spending
太空探索经费题要诊断科学收益、机会成本和公共资金理由。这类 IELTS Task 2 question 先不要背范文。先判断题目问谁、比较什么、要求解释原因还是评价取舍。
Sports funding schools
学校体育经费题要诊断教育目标、学生行为和预算取舍，而不是只写运动有益健康。如果主体段没有 classroom、discipline 或 teamwork，教育价值没有落地。
