Do the advantages outweigh the disadvantages? (2)

Hi

I’ve just been looking around the official IELTS website and found the following IELTS Writing task 2 question.

The threat of nuclear weapons maintains world peace. Nuclear power provides cheap and clean energy.

The benefits of nuclear technology far outweigh the disadvantages.

To what extent do you agree or disagree?

This question is similar to the one in my previous post ‘Do the advantages outweigh the disadvantages?‘, i.e. it’s asking you whether or not there are more advantages to a situation than there are disadvantages.

This time, however, instead of telling you how I would answer the question, it would be a good idea for you to think about how you would answer it.

You may get a similar type of question in your IELTS test.
