How to break down tourism topics
Choose a comparison standard first: local income, cultural preservation, environmental pressure, or public services.
Task 2 topic guide
Tourism essays need a clear trade-off between economic benefit and cultural cost.
Tourism essays often write one jobs paragraph and one culture-damage paragraph. The key is which standard decides which side matters more.
The comparison standard decides the final position.
Risk: two-sided list
Only listing benefits and drawbacks often leaves the conclusion as depends on the country.
Diagnostic evidence: no priority
If the body never says whether jobs, environment, or culture has priority, the position is weak.
What to revise after checking
Rewrite two topic sentences so both serve one standard, rather than listing separate pros and cons.
- Whether the comparison standard is clear
- Whether cultural cost is specific
- Whether economic benefit has an actor

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。
Culture topic
IELTS Task 2 culture topic 容易写成 tradition is important。先诊断文化变化、代际差异和具体例子。
Tourism local culture
Tourism and local culture 题目容易写成两边都有道理。先诊断收益对象、文化损耗和最终标准。检查重点：文化损耗是否具体、收益对象是否明确、判断标准是否一致。
Coherence
IELTS Coherence and Cohesion 的范围比 linking words 大得多。更重要的是观点顺序、段落职责、句子推进和指代是否清楚。
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。
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。
Work topic
IELTS Task 2 work topic 常见风险是把 remote work、job security、work-life balance 都写成泛泛效率。先诊断对象和因果。
