Their hair is glossier; skin is smoother and ruddier because of the hormones which secrete from the body during the process of pregnancy. When women are pregnant, they receive several maternity benefits of government and community as well. Expectant mothers have maternity leaves, which mean they can rest comfortably with statutory maternity pay from work until the baby born.

        	        	<description><![CDATA[<p>Hello Alice</p>
<p>Welcome to Writefix, and thanks for this essay on an interesting topic. I hope other people try this topic or add their comments.</p>
<p>Alice, are you taking the IELTS exam or just practicing your essay writing? Your essay has many ideas, but it would be almost <span style="color: #800000"><strong>impossible to write 522 words by hand</strong> in</span> just 40 minutes, the time that is allowed for Task 2 in IELTS.</p>
<p>Let us know! Everyone is welcome to write essays here, but most people are aiming at the 250 word requirement for IELTS task 2.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000"><strong>Word Choice/Word Form/Usage</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li>It's true that getting pregna<span style="background-color: #ffff00">ncy</span> over 40 can be endangered for the mother and baby→ It's true that getting <span style="color: #800000"><strong>pregnant</strong></span> over 40 can be dangerous for the mother and baby<br />
  </li>
<li>Halle Berry <span style="background-color: #ffff00">born</span> the first baby at age of 41, and <span style="background-color: #ffff00">cheered</span> the second baby at 43 years old → Halle Berry<span style="color: #800000"><strong> gave birth to</strong></span> her first baby at 41, and <span style="color: #800000"><strong>had</strong></span> a second baby at 43.<br />
  </li>
<li>Julianne Moore and Celine Dion also had the <span style="background-color: #ffff00">extra</span> baby at 41 and 42 years old. → Julianne Moore and Celine Dion also <strong><span style="color: #800000">had</span></strong> babies at 41 and 42 years old. (I don’t think babies can be extra!  It’s not a promotion in a supermarket!)<br />
  </li>
<li>Being pregnant could motivate couples to marri<span style="background-color: #ffff00">age</span> and <span style="background-color: #ffff00">warm up</span> a family → being pregnant could motivate couples to <span style="color: #800000"><strong>marry</strong></span>.<br />
  </li>
<li>And what are natural ways to get pregnan<span style="background-color: #ffff00">cy</span>? → And what are the natural ways to<span style="color: #800000"><strong> get pregnant</strong></span>/<span style="color: #800000"><strong>become pregnant</strong></span>?<br />
  </li>
<li>First, to get pregnan<span style="background-color: #ffff00">cy</span>, women have to be in <span style="background-color: #ffff00">a good condition</span> of <span style="background-color: #ffff00">metal</span> and body. → First, to become pregnant, women should be <strong><span style="color: #800000">in good mental and physical condition.</span></strong><br />
  </li>
<li>The <span style="background-color: #ffff00">jeopardy</span> comes from high blood pressure → The <span style="color: #800000"><strong>danger/risk</strong></span> comes from high blood pressure</li>
</ul>
<p><span style="color: #800000"><strong>Simplify</strong></span></p>
<p>This sentence is 23 words long and has several problems</p>
<blockquote>
<p>
Nevertheless, if any women <span style="background-color: #ffff00">who</span> want to be pregnant <span style="background-color: #ffff00">with</span> 40, they should do everything to guarante<span style="background-color: #ffff00">e s</span>afety of the baby and <span style="background-color: #ffff00">them</span>. </p>
</blockquote>
<p>Let’s simplify it (although we need to use a complicated structure):</p>
<blockquote>
<p>
Nevertheless, women who want to be pregnant at 40 should do everything for their own safety and that of the baby.  <span style="color: #800000"><strong>OR</strong></span></p>
<p>In this essay, I will suggest some ways for women over 40 to have a safe delivery.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Here’s a long sentence (25 words) with many clauses and phrases and some problems:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>
Hence, <span style="background-color: #ffff00">especially</span> for women who are 40 and over<span style="background-color: #ffff00">, s</span>hould have an everyday nourishing meal, do exercise moderatel<span style="background-color: #ffff00">y, b</span>reathe as much fresh air as possible.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Try to keep sentences below 20 words. This could be rewritten more simply as</p>
<blockquote>
<p>
Women over 40 should have nourishing food, exercise moderately and get as much fresh air as possible. <em>(17 words)</em></p>
</blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #800000"><strong>Verb Tense</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li>However, the modern life <span style="background-color: #ffff00">made</span>so many women become too busy to be pregnant.  →<br />
However, modern life <span style="color: #800000"><strong>has made</strong></span> many women too busy to be pregnant. <span style="color: #800000"><strong>OR</strong></span><br />
 Today, many women <strong><span style="color: #800000">have become</span></strong> too busy to be pregnant.
</li>
</ul>
<p><span style="color: #800000"><strong>Good sentence!</strong></span></p>
<blockquote>
<p>
It seems as if Hollywood has made pregnancy over 40 become a trend for women.</p>
</blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #800000"><strong>Punctuation</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li>Some research has proven tha<span style="background-color: #ffff00">t, w</span>omen will be prettier → Some research has proved <span style="color: #800000"><strong>that women</strong></span> will be prettier<br />
  </li>
<li>Moreover, being pregnant could motivate couples to <span style="background-color: #ffff00">marriage</span> and warm up a family<span style="background-color: #ffff00">, b</span>ring <span style="background-color: #ffff00">joyfulness</span> to family members</li>
</ul>
<p><span style="color: #800000"><strong>Generalizations</strong></span></p>
<p>If you are doing IELTS writing, you need to <span style="color: #800000"><strong>avoid generalizations or unsupported ideas</strong></span>. Have a look at the descriptors for <a href="http://www.ielts.org/pdf/UOBDs_WritingT2.pdf" target="_blank">Task 2 Writing in IELTS</a>, under Task Response.</p>
<p>I am not a medical expert, so I will have to ask my sisters about this (it could explain a lot!):</p>
<blockquote>
<p>
For example, if sh<span style="background-color: #ffff00">e d</span>rinking too much beer, smok<span style="background-color: #ffff00">e</span> a least two cigarette a day, <span style="background-color: #ffff00">she also has a brittle temper </span></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Here’s another generalization</p>
<blockquote>
<p>
First, to get pregnancy, women <span style="background-color: #ffff00">have to be</span> in a good condition of metal and body.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>I’m not a doctor, but as far as I know, many women can become pregnant even if sick or very unhappy. We can change the sentence to make it less of a generalization</p>
<blockquote>
<p>
First, to become pregnant, women should be in good physical and mental condition.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Here’s a more serious generalization</p>
<blockquote>
<p>
...diabetes can lead to<span style="background-color: #ffff00"> catastrophe, which means you future child could get Down syndrome.</span></p>
</blockquote>
<p>I looked at the <a href="http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/down-syndrome/ds00182/dsection=causes" target="_blank">Mayo Clinic website</a>  and that the UK’s <a href="http://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Downs-syndrome/Pages/Causes.aspx" target="_blank">National Health Service website</a> for causes of Down’s Syndrome  but found no reference to diabetes in the mother being a cause. The IELTS exam is not a medical test, but we do have to avoid generalizations or unsupported ideas.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000"><strong>Details</strong></span></p>
<p>If you are doing IELTS, you need to reduce, reduce, reduce. Omit all unnecessary details.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>
Pregnancy is one of the most marvelous things in the world because not every woman can be pregnant, and <span style="text-decoration: line-through">what would happen to the humanity if women can’t be pregnant?</span></p>
</blockquote>
<p>I really don't think that many women get pregnant to <span style="color: #800000"><strong>improve their skin:</strong></span></p>
<blockquote>
<p>
<span style="text-decoration: line-through">There is a lot of wonderful things make reasons to be pregnant. Some research has proven that, women will be prettier when they’re carrying offspring. Their hair is glossier; skin is smoother and ruddier because of the hormones which secrete from the body during the process of pregnancy. When women are pregnant, they receive several maternity benefits of government and community as well.</span></p>
</blockquote>
<p>This is all fine and dandy, but we need to <span style="color: #800000"><strong>keep to the essay topic. </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #800000"> <strong>Conclusion</strong></span></p>
<p>You don’t have a conclusion to your essay. Whether you are writing for IELTS or for another purpose, a conclusion helps your reader. It’s where you summarize the main ideas and give your opinion, and perhaps some advice or recommendation.</p>
<p>Again, tell us what you are writing for and we will tailor the suggestions for you. Thanks again!<br />

<p>Pregnancy is one of the most marvelous things in the world because not every woman can be pregnant, and what would happen to the humanity if women can’t be pregnant? There is a lot of wonderful things make reasons to be pregnant. Some research has proven that, women will be prettier when they’re carrying offspring.

Therefore, women should be pregnant at 20 to 34 years old Likewise, a woman who wants to become mother at 40 or over should ask advice from doctors when she is pregnant and follow instruction to insure safety if necessary.</p>
