🚨A great strategy to level up your writing:
1. After finishing a paragraph, sharpen it. Remove all the unnecessary parts(redundant words or even sentences);
2. Make it fancier by replacing some words and structures with more advanced ones;
3. Proofread it to make sure that everything is well-put;
This is what helped me to increase my writing score from 7 to 8 2 years ago.
Have a good weekend.

The problem of many people is that they lack “tars-turs” character.

Most museums and historical sites are visited by tourists, not locals.
Why is this the case?
What measures can be taken to encourage locals to visit museums?
It is true that museums and other historically valuable sites are mostly visited by foreigners rather than by local residents. While the reason behind people's negligence is quite apparent, finding an incentive for locals to pay a visit to such places is far from easy.
It is natural for people to underestimate the available. Usually, easily accessible things do not attract people, they have to put some effort in pursuit of them so that they can have value. As for tourists, they also take no notice of historical sites in their native soil, and thus go to analogous places of other countries. Put succinctly, people are inclined to be blind when it comes to seeing what is under their nose.
Turning to solutions, there are two of them, which can be indeed helpful. Firstly, such places ought to increase their profile. To do this, they can use social media platforms, such as Instagram. If they constantly post pictures and videos, they will be reminding people of their existence. It is called a seed-effect. You plant a seed and when it grows, you rip the benefits and by benefits I mean the influx of visitors. Secondly, education can be given in such places. For instance, instead of conducting history lessons in classroom settings, which bore virtually everyone, we better teach them in museums and places alike. Should it happen, not only will lessons be more interactive, but also the sites being discussed will be full of visitors, especially local ones.
In conclusion, it is clear what causes the ignorance of locals towards historical attractions surrounding them, yet it is possible to incentivize them to come if suggested solutions are applied.

Like and Need - two simple words, but lead to so many MISTAKES.
1. This movie liked me. ❌
2. Maths needs me to get into university. ❌
In Uzbek and Russian these sentences would be correct, but not in English.
Movie can’t like you, nor maths can need you.
Thus, these sentences must be in the following order:
1. I liked this movie.✅
2. I need maths to get into university.✅

Time to say a couple of words about the latest exam.
Speaking this time was before the main exam. I was very happy with my performance thinking that it was the best speech I had ever given, but this time I got only 8, despite 2 consecutive 8.5s before that. Re-mark didn’t change anything.
In listening, I went down to 8.5 because I forgot the spelling of the word “NYLON”, silly me🤦♂️.
In reading, I got 9 for the first time in my life after 3 8.5s. The exam went very smoothly. I finished all questions in 40minutes and had plenty of time for a rest preparing mentally for the best I could show in writing, which I eventually did, getting an astounding 8.5.
What I changed in writing was this - in Task 1, I didn’t give all the details, but instead grouped unimportant parts and put them generally. In Task 2, for discuss I wrote three bodies giving an unrelated view to initially given ones in the last.
All in all, I was so close to 9, but God said - not this time. Well, okay. But, I am happy that I have already achieved the combination of scores that gives an overall 9. 9s in L/R and 8.5s in S/W. Now it’s time to do that in one sit!🔝

Uncountable nouns, which are usually mistakenly used in plural:
1. Advice;
2. Information;
3. Music;
4. Furniture;
5. Equipment;
6. Accommodation;
7. Homework;
8. Housework;
9. Food;
10. Traffic;
11. Luggage;
12. Work;
Don’t add -s/-es to them. They are UNCOUNTABLE.

😬One of the most annoying mistakes - it’s depends.
Depend is a verb, so no need for “to be”.
It must be - it depends.
