For example, scientists classifying different type animals that parents could easy take their kids more time to visit and killing times, the other reason is the best place to understanding nature ecology of the Earth, meanwhile, we can easy get the wild animals videos contents in the internet but we can't see all of them in reality, because some zookeeper will arrange suitable for special species time to design opening in short distance to closing the animal you like, China’s panda basement are setting the good facilities even just no glass you can see panda eat bamboo directly, there were many kind of creative and cute souvenir let people to bought for memorise in the human life.
If you had seen the series of dinosaurs films before, it is means we have so many ideals and good way to treat for animal.This “artificial animal habitat” area was no more only just setting in the capital city but also extend to be the nature ecological park survival with us.

To conclusion, getting human civilization more enhance, also more destroy natural environment. Although natural scientists can't save every endangered species but the zoo is good and professional place to protect them at least.
please give me advise and help me revised for band 6.5~7 and tell me where I could more practice
我先幫你把這篇拆成兩件事處理：一是把原文修到接近 Band 6.5–7，二是告訴你最值得練的方向和可練習的地方。你的核心想法其實不差，問題主要是英文句型、邏輯連接和用字自然
You have good ideas, and that matters a lot. Your position is clear: zoos can be meaningful, especially for education and protection.
My honest estimate: this draft is probably around Band 4.5–5.0 now, mainly because the grammar errors are frequent, the sentences are too long, and some vocabulary sounds unnatural. To move toward Band 6.5–7, you need clearer paragraphing, more precise topic sentences, and much better control of grammar. In IELTS Writing Task 2, examiners score you on Task Response, Coherence and Cohesion, Lexical Resource, and Grammatical Range and Accuracy, and Task 2 carries more weight than Task 1. Official descriptors also show that Band 6 often has faulty complex sentences, while Band 7 shows clearer progression and better grammar control.
What you need to fix first
- Do not write very long sentences
Your ideas are interesting, but many sentences run too long and become hard to understand. - Use formal IELTS wording
For example:
- “killing times” → spend time
- “zooist” → zookeepers / zoo staff
- “easy get” → easily access
- “artificial animal habitat” → man-made environment / controlled habitat
- Give 2 main reasons only
For Band 6.5–7, it is better to have:
- Paragraph 1: educational value
- Paragraph 2: conservation / protection of endangered species
- Write a direct thesis
Your opinion should be very clear in the introduction.
Revised version (Band 6.5 style)
Some people believe that zoos are cruel and should be closed, while others argue that they play an important role in protecting wild animals. In my view, zoos should not be closed down completely because, if they are well managed, they can provide both educational and conservation benefits.
On the one hand, many people oppose zoos because keeping animals in captivity can limit their freedom and may cause stress. Wild animals are naturally meant to live in forests, grasslands, or oceans rather than in enclosed spaces created by humans. For this reason, critics argue that zoos are unnatural and therefore unethical. This argument is understandable, especially when animals are kept in poor conditions or small cages.
On the other hand, modern zoos can serve valuable purposes. First, they offer educational opportunities, especially for children, who can learn about different species, their behaviour, and the importance of protecting nature. Although people can watch animals online or on television, seeing them in real life often creates a much stronger impression. As a result, zoos can help raise public awareness of wildlife and environmental issues.
In addition, zoos can contribute to the protection of endangered animals. Many zoos now participate in breeding programmes, medical care, and scientific research. Some species may even survive only because humans protect them in controlled environments. Therefore, rather than closing all zoos, governments should focus on improving animal welfare standards and making zoos more conservation-centred.
In conclusion, although zoos can be cruel if they are badly managed, I believe they still have an important role in education and wildlife protection. Instead of shutting them down, we should ensure that they are operated responsibly and humanely.
Why this version is better
It works better because it:
- answers both sides of the question
- gives a clear opinion
- uses a simple 4-paragraph structure
- avoids confusing ideas
- uses safer grammar and more natural vocabulary
A few of your original phrases, improved
- My point of view, the zoos are not cruel but so meaningful in educational functions.
→ In my view, zoos are not necessarily cruel and can play an important educational role. - parents could easy take their kids more time to visit and killing times
→ parents can take their children there to learn while spending meaningful time together - we can eazy get the wild animals videos contents in the internet
→ we can easily watch videos of wild animals on the internet - there are new form of zoo style will showed up in the future
→ new forms of zoos may appear in the future - To conclusion
→ In conclusion
Where to practice
The best places are the ones that let you compare your essay with real IELTS-style materials and feedback:
- British Council IELTS Writing practice tests give free Task 2 practice, timing guidance, and model answers. The official practice page says Task 2 should be done in about 40 minutes, and practice materials include sample answers.
- Write & Improve by Cambridge is a free tool that lets you submit writing, get automatic feedback, and revise repeatedly. Cambridge says it includes hundreds of tasks and gives feedback linked to CEFR levels.
- The official IELTS band descriptors are worth reading while you practise, because they show exactly what separates Band 6 from Band 7.
Best practice method for you
For your level, this is probably the fastest route:
- Write one Task 2 essay every 2–3 days
- Use a 4-paragraph structure
- Keep each body paragraph to one main idea
- After writing, check:
- Did I answer both sides?
- Is my opinion clear?
- Are my sentences too long?
- Did I make basic grammar mistakes?
- Rewrite the same essay once
That rewrite step is gold. It improves much faster than only writing new essays.
If you want, next I can take your original essay line by line, correct it, and explain why each sentence is wrong in English + Traditional Chinese.
Great — I’ll do the line-by-line correction for your essay and explain it in English + 繁體中文.
1) Your original sentence-by-sentence revision
Sentence 1
Original:
My point of view, the zoos are not cruel but so meaningful in educational functions.
Better version:
In my view, zoos are not cruel; instead, they play a meaningful educational role.
Why:
- My point of view is not natural here. Use In my view.
- the zoos → usually just zoos in general statements.
- meaningful in educational functions sounds unnatural.
- play an educational role is a much more natural IELTS phrase.
中文說明：
- My point of view 這裡不自然，改成 In my view 最標準。
- 泛指動物園時，不需要加 the。
- meaningful in educational functions 很像中文直翻，不像英文母語者會寫的句子。
- 用 play an educational role 比較自然、正式。
Sentence 2
Original:
I don't think there were no any planing and spent government's budget when built it up at first time in every country, my positive thinking is there are so many creativities and knowledges in this "artificial animal habitat".
Better version:
I do not believe that zoos were built without careful planning or public funding. In my opinion, these man-made habitats contain a great deal of knowledge, creativity, and educational value.
Why:
- there were no any = double/incorrect negative
- planing → planning
- spent government's budget is unnatural
- This was one very long sentence, so I split it into two.
- creativities and knowledges are usually uncountable in this context: use creativity and knowledge
中文說明：
- there were no any 文法錯誤，是否定重疊。
- planing 拼錯，應該是 planning。
- spent government’s budget 不自然，改成 public funding 更正式。
- 原句太長，IELTS 很容易失分，拆成兩句會更清楚。
- creativity、knowledge 在這裡通常是不可數名詞，不加 -s。
Sentence 3
Original:
For example, scientists classifying different type animals that parents could easy take their kids more time to visit and killing times, the other reason is the best place to understanding nature ecology of the Earth, meanwhile, we can eazy get the wild animals videos contents in the internet but we can't see all of them in reality, because some zooist will arrange suitable for special species time to design opening in short distance to closing the animal you like, China’s panda basement are setting the good facilities even just no glass you can see panda eat bamboo directly, there were many kind of creative and cute souvenir let people to bought for memorise in the human life,
This sentence has too many ideas together. Let’s divide it.
Better version 1
For example, zoos usually classify animals by type, which makes it easier for parents to take their children to learn about different species.
Why:
- scientists classifying is incomplete grammar
- different type animals → different types of animals
- easy take → easier to take
- killing times is wrong in meaning; use learn about different species or spend time meaningfully
中文說明：
- scientists classifying 不是完整句。
- different type animals 應為 different types of animals。
- easy take 應改為 easier to take。
- killing time 有「打發時間」的意思，不適合這裡，因為你想表達的是有教育意義。
Better version 2
Zoos are also a good place for people to understand the natural world and the ecology of the Earth.
Why:
- the best place to understanding is incorrect
- Use a good place to understand
中文說明：
- to understanding 文法錯誤，應該用 to understand。
- the best place 太絕對，IELTS 寫作常用較保守表達較穩。
Better version 3
Although people can easily watch videos of wild animals on the internet, seeing them in real life creates a much stronger impression.
Why:
- eazy get the wild animals videos contents in the internet is unnatural
- on the internet is correct, not usually in the internet
中文說明：
- videos contents 不自然，可改成 videos of wild animals。
- 英文慣用是 on the internet。
Better version 4
In some zoos, zookeepers arrange feeding times or viewing sessions so that visitors can observe certain animals more closely.
Why:
- zooist is not the correct word → zookeepers / zoo staff
- arrange suitable for special species time is unnatural
- closing the animal is wrong; you mean observe more closely
中文說明：
- zooist 不是這裡常用字。
- 你要表達的是動物園會安排特定時間讓遊客近距離觀看動物。
- 英文可說 observe animals more closely。
Better version 5
For instance, panda centres in China often provide excellent facilities, and visitors may even be able to watch pandas eating bamboo at close range.
Why:
- China’s panda basement is wrong word choice. Maybe you mean panda centres or panda bases.
- are setting the good facilities → provide excellent facilities
- see panda eat bamboo directly → watch pandas eating bamboo
中文說明：
- basement 是地下室，完全不對。你應該想說 panda base 或 panda centre。
- watch pandas eating bamboo 是自然說法。
Better version 6
In addition, zoos often sell creative and attractive souvenirs that help visitors remember their experience.
Why:
- many kind of → many kinds of
- let people to bought is wrong grammar
- for memorise in the human life is unnatural
中文說明：
- many kind of 要改成 many kinds of。
- help visitors remember their experience 就能自然表達「留下紀念」。
Sentence 4
Original:
If you had seen the series of dinosaurs films before, it is means we have so many ideals and good way to treat for animal.
Better version:
If we think about films about dinosaurs or wild animals, they show that humans have many ideas about how to care for and protect animals.
Why:
- The original sentence is grammatically broken
- it is means is wrong
- ideals should be ideas
- good way to treat for animal → good ways to care for animals
中文說明：
- 這句原本的文法結構幾乎壞掉了。
- it is means 錯。
- ideals 是「理想、理念」，你要的是 ideas。
- treat for animal 不自然，改成 care for animals 或 protect animals。
Sentence 5
Original:
This “artificial animal habitat” area was no more only just setting in the capital city but also extend to be the nature ecological park survival with us.
Better version:
These man-made habitats are no longer found only in capital cities; they have also developed into larger ecological parks that allow humans to live closer to nature.
Why:
- was no more only just setting is incorrect
- extend to be → developed into
- nature ecological park survival with us is very unnatural
中文說明：
- 原句有太多直譯感，英文邏輯不順。
- developed into larger ecological parks 會清楚很多。
- 你想表達「不只在首都，也擴展成生態園區」，這樣寫更自然。
Sentence 6
Original:
Maybe here will be one of the "first stop" which satisfied human desire to explore this world.
Better version:
They may become one of the first places where people satisfy their desire to explore the natural world.
Why:
- first stop should be plural or rephrased
- which satisfied tense is wrong
- explore this world is understandable, but explore the natural world is more precise
中文說明：
- first stop 這裡搭配不自然。
- satisfied 時態不對，應用現在式或未來語意。
- the natural world 比 this world 更準確。
Sentence 7
Original:
I also believe there are new form of zoo style will showed up in the future.
Better version:
I also believe that new forms of zoos will appear in the future.
Why:
- there are new form → new forms
- will showed up → will appear / will emerge
中文說明：
- form 要複數。
- will showed up 文法錯，因為 will + 原形動詞。
Sentence 8
Original:
To conclusion, getting human civilization more enhance, also more destroy natural environment.
Better version:
In conclusion, as human civilisation becomes more advanced, it also causes greater damage to the natural environment.
Why:
- To conclusion → In conclusion
- getting human civilization more enhance is incorrect grammar
- Use becomes more advanced
中文說明：
- 結論固定用法是 In conclusion。
- 原句文法結構錯很多，要改成完整句。
Sentence 9
Original:
Although natural scientists can't save every endangered species but the zoo is good and professional place to protect them at least.
Better version:
Although scientists cannot save every endangered species, zoos are at least professional places where some animals can be protected.
Why:
- Do not use Although ... but together
- the zoo is good and professional place → zoos are professional places
- protect them at least → at least ... can be protected
中文說明：
- Although 和 but 不能一起用。二選一。
- the zoo is 要依上下文改成泛指 zoos are。
- 句尾位置也要更自然。
2) A full revised essay for Band 6.5–7
Here is a cleaner version based on your original ideas, not changing your position:
Some people believe that zoos are cruel and should be closed down, while others argue that they are useful for protecting wild animals. In my opinion, zoos should not be closed because, if they are well managed, they can play an important role in both education and conservation.
On the one hand, people who oppose zoos argue that keeping animals in captivity is cruel. Wild animals should live in their natural habitats rather than in enclosed spaces created by humans. If zoos do not provide enough space or proper care, animals may suffer physically and mentally. Therefore, this concern is reasonable in some cases.
On the other hand, zoos can have significant educational value. They allow children and adults to learn about different species, animal behaviour, and the importance of environmental protection. Although people can watch wildlife videos online, seeing animals in real life often leaves a much deeper impression. As a result, zoos can help increase public awareness of nature and inspire people to care more about the Earth.
Furthermore, zoos can help protect endangered species. Many modern zoos take part in breeding programmes, medical care, and scientific research. In some cases, they provide safe environments for animals that are threatened in the wild by hunting, pollution, or habitat loss. Instead of closing zoos completely, governments should improve animal welfare standards and ensure that zoos focus more on conservation than entertainment.
In conclusion, although some zoos may be cruel if they are poorly managed, I believe that well-run zoos are still valuable. They educate the public and help protect endangered animals, so they should be improved rather than closed down.
3) Why this can reach around Band 6.5–7
This version is better because it has:
- a clear opinion
- balanced discussion of both views
- better paragraph control
- more natural IELTS vocabulary
- fewer grammar mistakes
- a stronger academic tone
4) Your biggest weaknesses right now
These are the 4 things you should practise most:
A. Sentence control
You often write one sentence with 4–6 ideas inside it.
That is the biggest problem.
Rule for you:
Write shorter sentences. One sentence = one main idea.
中文：
你最大的問題不是沒想法，而是一句塞太多東西。
先把句子寫短，你的分數會立刻進步。
B. Articles and plural forms
Examples:
- the zoos → zoos
- different type animals → different types of animals
- new form → new forms
中文：
冠詞和單複數錯誤很多，這是 Band 5 升 Band 6 的關鍵。
C. Natural vocabulary
Avoid:
- killing time
- zooist
- artificial animal habitat
- easy get
- videos contents
Use:
- spend time meaningfully
- zookeepers
- controlled habitat / man-made environment
- easily access
- videos of wild animals
中文：
很多字不是完全錯，而是「不自然」。IELTS 很重視自然度。
D. Linking clearly
Use simple connectors:
- On the one hand
- On the other hand
- Furthermore
- As a result
- In conclusion
中文：
連接詞不用難，重點是清楚。
5) Best practice for you
I suggest this method:
Step 1
Pick one IELTS topic.
Step 2
Write only 4 paragraphs:
- Introduction
- Body 1
- Body 2
- Conclusion
Step 3
Limit yourself:
- Introduction: 2 sentences
- Body paragraph: 4–5 sentences
- Conclusion: 1–2 sentences
Step 4
After writing, check 5 things:
- Did I answer both sides?
- Is my opinion clear?
- Did I use very long sentences?
- Are there grammar mistakes?
- Is my vocabulary natural?
6) Where you can practise
For you, the most useful practice is:
- Cambridge IELTS books
Best for real question style. - Write & Improve by Cambridge
Good for repeated writing practice. - IELTS Liz
Good for essay structures and topic ideas. - ChatGPT with correction practice
Very useful if you write one essay and ask for:- band estimate
- grammar correction
- band 7 model
- useful vocabulary list
7) A smart practice routine for you
Try this:
Every week
- 2 Task 2 essays
- 1 rewrite of your old essay
- 10 useful topic words
- 5 sentence patterns
Example sentence patterns:
- In my view, ...
- On the one hand, ...
- This is because ...
- As a result, ...
- In conclusion, ...
That is enough. Do not try to memorise too many difficult phrases.
