Risk: health benefits are too vague
Sports are good for health is too thin without age, context, or behaviour change.
- Whether the beneficiary is specific
- Whether public-funding reasoning is clear
- Whether the example proves the claim
Task 2 topic guide
Sports topic essays need an education or public-health goal before examples.
IELTS Task 2 sports topic prompts often fail not because of missing ideas, but because students, professional athletes, and public money is not turned into a scorable paragraph chain.
Diagnose the prompt angle before choosing examples.
Diagnostic evidence: mixed target groups
A paragraph that covers children, athletes, and society at once usually has an unfocused topic sentence.
How to break down this topic
First decide whether the prompt asks about school sport, professional sport, public funding, or health responsibility.
What to revise after checking
Limit one sports claim to one group and one result, such as students -> discipline -> classroom focus.

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。
Children topic
IELTS Task 2 children topic 常把 children 写得太大。先诊断年龄段、责任主体和行为变化。年龄段决定原因和例子。
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。
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。
Sports weak example
示范 sports essay 为什么健康例子不能自动证明教育或公共资金观点。这不是 Band 9 范文。先看一类 Task 2 草稿为什么卡住，以及下一版应该先修哪一个写作步骤。
Technology topic
IELTS Task 2 technology topic 容易写成泛泛的 modern life。先诊断立场、对象和例子是否贴题。用自己的原文逐项检查，并把结论变成一次具体重写。
Tourism topic
IELTS Task 2 tourism topic 常在 jobs 和 culture 之间摇摆。先诊断比较标准和因果链。如果正文没有说明就业、环境或文化哪一个优先，立场会弱。
Transport topic
IELTS Task 2 transport topic 容易只写 more buses。先诊断公共交通、私家车、拥堵和政策结果链。先诊断题目角度，再决定例子。
