Common risk
Only saying government should build more houses ignores land, commute, and living quality.
- Whether the affected residents are clear
- Whether housing pressure is specific
- Whether city result returns to the prompt
Task 2 topic guide
Housing topic essays need affordability and resident experience.
IELTS Task 2 housing topic prompts often turn housing prices, land use, and family life into a common-sense list instead of a scorable argument chain.
Limit the angle before choosing examples.
Diagnostic evidence
If residents, renters, or young families are missing, housing argument loses its beneficiary.
How to break down this topic
First decide whether the prompt asks about housing cost, high-rise living, urban planning, or home ownership.
What to revise after checking
Write one housing chain: cost pressure -> affected group -> living choice -> city result.

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。
Task Response
IELTS Task Response 的核心是完整回应命令词、保持清楚一致的立场，并把观点展开到可以评估，观点数量是其次。先拆出题目要求与对象，再检查 thesis、段落主旨、理由、例子和结果是否共同回答问题。引用原文定位遗漏或薄弱链条，把最主要的一处改成下一版可验证的段落重写目标，并记录前后证据。
Task 2 examples
Task 2 的例子要和 claim、reason、consequence 连在一起，才能支撑论证。例子出现了，还要说明它怎样支持前一句推理。
Urbanisation topic
IELTS Task 2 urbanisation topic 容易泛写 big cities。先诊断人口迁移、住房、就业和公共服务压力。
High-rise living cities
高层住宅和城市生活题要先诊断 housing pressure、community life 和 urban planning。用自己的原文逐项检查，并把结论变成一次具体重写。
Language topic
IELTS Task 2 language topic 涉及儿童外语、全球语言和文化身份。先诊断学习目的和受影响群体。先限定角度，再选例子。
Media topic
IELTS Task 2 media topic 容易泛写 influence。先诊断信息来源、受众和行为改变。这个观点太大，无法说明是改变消费、观点、学习还是投票。
Money topic
IELTS Task 2 money topic 容易从 happiness 写到 success 再写到 consumerism。先诊断立场和比较标准。
