Ready for C1 p 11. Essay Writing Task: The Impact of Artificial Intelligence.

 Task:

Write an essay discussing the impact of Artificial Intelligence on contemporary society.

Ideas:


In your essay, you could:

  • Evaluate both the potential benefits and the significant drawbacks of AI across at least two key areas (for example: education, the workplace, creative industries, or personal privacy).

  • Analyse how rapidly advancing AI technologies might reshape human behaviour, critical thinking, or social interaction.

  • Conclude with a well-reasoned judgement on whether society is currently prepared to manage these changes effectively.

Suggestions:

  • Word count: 180–220 words 

  • Register and Tone: Formal, objective, and academic. Avoid contractions (e.g., use cannot instead of can't) and overly colloquial language.

  • Language Focus (C1 Level):

    • Demonstrate a wide range of topic-specific vocabulary and collocations (e.g., algorithmic bias, automation, cognitive offloading, ethical implications, unprecedented pace).

    • Use complex grammatical structures naturally, such as inversion for emphasis, participle clauses, and passive reporting structures (e.g., It is widely acknowledged that...).

    • Ensure clear cohesion and logical progression between paragraphs using sophisticated linking devices (e.g., conversely, notwithstanding, consequently, insofar as).

Self-Assessment Checklist (Before Submission)

  • Have I maintained a balanced, analytical perspective rather than writing a purely one-sided opinion piece?

  • Does each body paragraph have a clear topic sentence supported by specific examples or reasoning?

  • Have I checked my work for accurate spelling, punctuation, and grammatical precision?
