• Task Two Sample Essay - with collocations

removed (Gap fill task)
It is a common viewpoint in today’s society that someone who has been labeled as a criminal for
committing illegal activity is unable to change his or her identity and will always be considered a
criminal. Does this viewpoint align with yours? Support your argument with specific reasoning.
Many people in today’s society believe that criminals cannot change their identity and will
remain criminals forever. However, there is reason to believe that this viewpoint is false. With
increased ______ _______ between prisoners as well as officers, a ____ ___________ can be
created in which prisoners can improve themselves and change who they are. This essay will
discuss why it may be possible for criminals to abandon their past and live meaningful lives in
their future.
Firstly, people always have the power to change their situation and their lives for the better. A
criminal’s life is not fixed forever and prison can help these _______ _________ better
themselves, hence the titling of most prisons as “____________ ___________.” For example, a
recent study showed that when the _______ __________ interacted with prisoners before prison
and again after prison, they could tell a positive difference in the prisoner’s demeanor. Therefore,
it is possible for prisoners to change with the help of prison.
Secondly, people outside of prison have proven change is possible is everyday life and because
criminals are human like everyone else, change is possible for them as well. Various prisons
strive to make inmates’ lives more meaningful, because they believe in the power of change. For
example, many prisons have abandoned ____________ __________ and the use of _____
_____. Instead, the ________ ____ of officers is to combat __________ ________ with
nonviolence strategies. These radical techniques have resulted in great success and have proven
that criminals can change for the better.
In conclusion, while some individuals in prison may not have the power to improve themselves,
many criminals have gone through prison and proven that they can abandon their past and live
meaningful lives.
