Text Organization | Banning of motorbikes is necessary in housing areas. | Language Features |
Introduction (Thesis statement) | Motorbikes are a nuisance and a cause for great distress. Even though motorbikes are considered as the most convenient form of transportation, I think they are a hazard to humans, animals as well as the environment. I think motorbikes should be banned in housing areas due to the following reasons: cause of unreasonable amount of noise, air pollution, diseases, and accidents. | Mental verbs I think I believe |
Argument 1 + elaboration | First of all, I would like to point out that motorbikes are a major contributor to the pollution in the world. Research has shown that motorbikes emit a deadly gas that is dangerous for the environment. Consequently, long-term emission of gas from motorbikes is a major contributor of global warming (Science Daily). | Conjunctive relations First of all Secondly Causal conjunctions Consequently |
Argument 2 + elaboration | Secondly, according to a report from BBC News Channel, motorbikes are also responsible for causing diseases such as bronchitis, cancer and are a major trigger of asthma and high blood pressure. Some of the diseases are so ghastly that they can kill people (BBC News, ϮϬϬϵ). | Generic Reference Accidents |
Argument 3 + elaboration | Furthermore, motorbikes create so much noise. There is “vroom vroom” noise everywhere. It is extremely difficult to sleep. Parents with infants find it extremely challenging. The moment their babies fall asleep, one or another motorbike passes by and the baby wakes up. It is also arduous for children to concentrate on their homework. Experts are of the opinion that if there is extreme noise, it can lead to deafness and lack of concentration in children and adults (Fields, 1993). | Children Parents Expert opinion Expert Research show |
Argument 4 + elaboration | Finally, motorbikes are responsible for horrible accidents. In some cases, there are deaths. Motorbike riders go so fast that they are unable to stop on time thus they end up hitting other people or animals. Many times a lot of animals are trampled and found dead on the road. Motorbikes are known to be the biggest killers on the road (Fields, 1993). | Present tense Are responsible Go so fast Are known |
Conclusion (Reiteration of thesis statement | In conclusion, from the arguments abov e, I strongly believe that motorbikes should be banned from housing areas. |
