ExamWriting A complete guide to help you ace the writing part of the Cambridge exams. PRESENTATION You can't cook without a recipe Many students hate the planning stage and like to just start writing as soon as possible. But the finished product is normally not very good.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
be specific

BE FORMAL

be ready

1- BE IMPERSONAL

1. A baby who won't stop crying for ages drives anyone to despair.You feed him, you change him, you nurse him, you try to settle him, but the minute you put him down he starts to howl. Why ?

2. When infants cry it can be very troubling for their caregivers, particularly if the reason is unknown. However, crying is an effective distress signal for human babies because they have a prolonged period of dependence on their parents.

Impersonal expressions

There are several useful impersonal expressions that are commonly used in academic writing:

This essay/paper focuses on/examines/analyses ...

The evidence suggests ...

It would appear that/it seems that ...

The aim of this essay is to discuss ...

It is known/common knowledge that ...

By avoiding the personal pronouns 'I' and 'you', and phrases such as 'in my opinion', these expressions allow writers to achieve an impersonal style and present their arguments and ideas objectively rather than subjectively.

2- be specific

Vague language is imprecise, fuzzy, or inexact, often leading the reader to make guesses or assumptions about the author's intended meaning.

E.g: Thing (I'm going to go buy some healthy things)

1 an object that one need not, cannot, or does not wish to give a specific name to

2 an inanimate material object as distinct from a living sentient being

3 an action, activity, event, thought, or utterance

However, you can help your readers better understand and make your writing more interesting and precise by simply using stronger, more descriptive words.

3- BE CONSISTENT

If I start a paragraph with 'Firstly', then I need to start the following ones with 'Secondly', 'Thirdly' and so on. If I started with 'First' then I will continue with 'Second'. If I used 'First of all', I will continue with 'Second of all'.

By the same token, if I start a paragraph with 'On the one hand', at some point I will contrast it using 'On the other hand'.
4-bE CONCISE
Always look out for redundancies. Remember that English values straight-forwardness over long, flowery sentences.

A way to be more concise is to replace long nominal sentences with verbs.

Which sounds more natural?

The teacher carried out a evaluation on the students

The teacher evaluated the students

The doctor made an examination and gave a diagnose to the patient The doctor examined and diagnosed the patient
5- Be original
When coming up with your own idea for the 4th paragraph of the essay, it must:

1-be possible to summarize it in a short word or paragraph

2- stand on its own (it must be easy to tell it apart from the other ideas)

3- be clearly related to the task

Do NOT start writing your essay without knowing what your own idea is. ALWAYS plan ahead.
6- KNOW YOUR COMMAS
With some few exceptions, we cannot put a comma between a the subject and the predicate of a sentence.

Incorrect: The things that cause me joy, may also cause me pain.

Correct: The things that cause me joy may also cause me pain.

Incorrect: Navigating through snow, sleet, wind, and darkness, is a miserable way to travel.

Correct: Navigating through snow, sleet, wind, and darkness is a miserable way to travel.

When you want to join two independent clauses, you need a conjunction or a semicolon.

A comma alone isn't strong enough to join them.

Incorrect: We were out of milk, I went to the store.

Correct: We were out of milk, so I went to the store.

Correct: We were out of milk; I went to the store.

Or, you can simply write the two independent clauses as separate sentences.

Correct: We were out of milk. I went to the store.

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh

Avoid contractions, idioms, slang and informal words such as kids, guys and stuff.

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh

Before you start writing your introduction, you should already know:

-how you will structure it (order and main ideas of each paragraph + your own idea) ---your lexical field (words related to the topic of your essay)

-linkers and advanced grammatical structures you will use (not only, but also, conditionals, passive voice, reported speech, relative clauses, etc,)
