"People commit crimes for selfish reasons. Discuss. You should write at least 350 words.

"
FYI, Nazri was trying to use my suggested template of I+A1+D1+A2+D2+C
(Intro + Agree 1 vs Disagree 1 + Agree 2 vs Disagree 2 + Conclusion = 6 paragraph format)
Nazri's Intro:
In this globalization era, murder and kidnap are one of the heavy crimes people most
commit. In addition, according to the articles I have read, these rate of crimes are increasing
drastically all over the world. Women and children are the most common victim of the
heartless criminals because they are weak or they look fragile. Do people commit crimes for
selfish reasons? I agree to a certain extent that people commit crimes for fun and greedy,
however, crimes may be committed because of financial problems and lack of parents' love.
Edited version:
In this globaliSation era, murderS and kidnapPING are SOME of the heavy
crimes people MAY commit. In addition, according the articles I have read, the
rate of crimes are increasing drastically all over the world. Women and children
are the most common victimS of the heartless criminals because they are weak or
look fragile. Do people commit crimes for selfish reasons? WE HAVE CERTAINLY
READ CASES OF HUSBANDS KILLING THEIR WIVES TO CLAIM THE INSURANCE
MONEY AND VICE VERSA BUT THERE ARE ALSO INCIDENCES OF CRIMES THAT HAVE
NOTHING TO DO WITH SELFISHNESS SUCH AS MURDER COMMITTED IN A RAGE OF
JEALOUSY. IN MY HUMBLE OPINION, I ONLY agree to a certain extent that people
commit crimes FOR SELFISH REASONS BECAUSE IN SOME CASES SELFISHNESS IS
NOT THE MAIN CONTRIBUTING FACTOR WHY CRIMES HAPPEN.
Editor's notes:
You will lose your ground as a Band 5/6 student if your grammar is inconsistent. Nazri's first
sentence itself is controversial because he uses the word 'most'. Along with 'all', 'never',
'always' and 'everyone', these words must be avoided at all costs as it draws generalisations
and sweeping statements that make the reader feel that the writer lacks critical thinking and
maturity. Instead, use 'some', 'often', 'may', 'might', 'usually' etc.. He could also have
improved the introduction by outlining some crimes that are driven by selfish reasons and
some that are not as seen in the edited version. Finally, the thesis statement must clearly
outline that you are going to discuss both sides of the coin.

Nazri's 1st Point:

First and foremost, people commit crimes just for fun that may drag them to a world
without humanity. Why do I say so? One of the reasons is they love to see when people are
suffering. They steal something that is valuable in someone's life to entertain themselves or
to get a revenge. For instance, these heartless criminals especially men like to take women's
pride by raping them and ignoring their tears and some of the unfortunate victims may get
killed when they try to escape. Thus, people who commit crimes are selfish because
someone's suffering is the happiness for them.
Edited version:

First and foremost, SOME people MAY commit crimes just for fun SIMPLY
BECAUSE THEY ENJOY OTHER PEOPLE'S SUFFERING that may drag them to a world
without humanity. Why do I say so? One of the reasons is they love MAY HAVE
SELFISH REASONS TO MAKE people suffer. They MAY steal something that is
valuable in someone's life to JUST TO entertain themselves or to get revenge. For
instance, THERE ARE CASES OF heartless criminals especially men like WHO HAVE
BEEN ARRESTED FOR TAKING women's pride by raping them and ignoring their
tears and some of the unfortunate victims may HAVE EVEN BEEN killed when they
try to escape. Thus, people who commit crimes are selfish because someone's
suffering is the happiness for them.
Editor's notes:
Here you need to be really careful when making sweeping statements so I have modified the
sentences using words that can temper the effect. Using informal sentences are also not
advisable such as 'just for fun' especially when you cannot prove specifically that men rape
others 'just for fun' because they 'enjoy' it. At all costs too, avoid sentences that declare
'people love to ...' or 'people like to ...' as these statements are not well quantified and
examiners will usually have a huge frown because you did not provide concrete proof
highlighting your own opinions just doesn't cut it. Try to back up your points with some
evidence of reading such as 'there have been cases that../a local newspaper recently
reported that../from a study done on...', all of which will make your essay more credible
rather than picking out lines from thin air.

Nazri's 2nd point:

On the other hand, crimes may be committed because of financial problems. The high
cost of living makes them desperate to look for money or to feed their family. They do not
have enough money to buy some food or their needs as the prices are increasing. So, they
tend to do crimes such as snatch or robber to earn some money by selling the stolen items
back at a higher price. For example, a rich person's house will be the target of the criminals
to break into and steal expensive items such as jewelleries and handphones. Therefore,
poverty or desperation in life can lead people to commit crimes.
Editor's version:
On the other hand, NOT ALL CRIMES ARE COMMITTED SIMPLY BECAUSE PEOPLE
ENJOY THE SUFFERING OF OTHERS BUT because of other issues such as financial
problems. The high cost of living makes them desperate to look for money to feed
their family SO INSTEAD OF BEING SELFISH, THEY ARE ACTUALLY COMMITTING
CRIME FOR SELFLESS REASONS WHICH IS TO SUPPORT THEIR FAMILY. They MAY
not have enough money to buy some food or their DAILY needs as the prices are
increasing. So, they tend to do crimes such as snatch THEFT or ROBBERIES to
earn MAKE some money by selling the stolen items at a higher price. For example,
SOME PEOPLE ARE DRIVEN TO DO CRIMES LIKE STEALING FOOD AND EVEN MILK
POWDER FROM SUPERMARKETS BECAUSE THEY CANNOT BEAR TO SEE THEIR
FAMILY STARVE. Therefore, poverty and desperation in life AND SELFLESSNESS TO
SACRIFICE THEMSELVES TO SAVE THE PEOPLE THEY LOVE, can lead people to
commit crimes WHICH IS THE OPPOSITE OF COMMITTING CRIMES FOR SELFISH
REASONS.

Editor's notes:
His 2nd point seems inconsequential because there is no clear LINK why he is
introducing his opposition point. Basically, to make this clear, you need to write a topic
sentence that clearly links to the first point introduced earlier. This shows the contrast with
the opposition point so you may argue contrary to the first idea introduced. When
contrasting ideas, the right vocabulary works best whereby SELFISHNESS is contrasted to
SELFLESSNESS, which makes it clear to the reader that you are still on track discussing the
LINK BETWEEN PART A & PART B. Furthermore, I had to modify the example to show a high
degree of selflessness and sacrifice because the example of a rich man's house being
burgled does not highlight the concept of selflessness. Lastly, the summation sentence
needs to really LINK back to the concept of selfish or unselfish reasons in order to make the
argument crystal.

Nazri's 3rd Point:

Apart from that, I do agree that people get involved in crimes because of selfish reasons
such as greed especially. They want to get rich in the easiest way instead of work hard to
accomplish their mission. People receive money as bribe, are hired to do a dirty job.
Moreover, this white-color crime is committed in the whole world. Money is powerful enough
to make people lose their sense of humanity as they can kill a person if they are asked to do
so as long as the reward is money.
Editor's version.
Apart from that, I STILL DO agree that people get involved in crimes because
of selfish reasons RELATED TO greed. THEY ARE SELFISH BECAUSE THEY GREEDILY
want to get rich in the easiest way instead of WORKING hard to accomplish their
mission. SOME people receive money as bribeS OR are hired to do dirty jobS
BECAUSE THEY SELFISHLY WANT TO MAKE A PROFIT FROM COMMITTING CRIMES.
Moreover, THESE white-color WHITE COLLAR crimeS ARE committed ALL OVER THE
WORLD AS WE SPEAK BECAUSE SELFISHNESS TO MAKE money is powerful enough
to make SOME people lose their sense of humanity as they can EVEN kill a person
as long as the reward is money. THEREFORE, SOME PEOPLE DO INDEED HAVE VERY
SELFISH REASONS TO COMMIT CRIMES ESPECIALLY IF THEY CAN MAKE A HUGE
PROFIT FROM IT.
Editor's notes:
When introducing the 2nd point to agree with the statement, you should outline it clearly
in the topic sentence which is the very first sentence in each paragraph. Greed is a factor on
its own so the LINK to selfishness must be made very clear, otherwise you may veer out of
topic. The terms used also should be accurate as seen in white color vs white collar crimes.
He also forgot to close the paragraph with a summation where in the edited version, rounds
off the argument clearly that crime is indeed linked to selfish reasons including greed for
profit.

Nazri's 4th Point:

Nevertheless, people also commit crimes because of lack of parents' love and guidance.
When the children is not the priority of parents, moral values will be hardly instilled in their
children themselves. They fail to differentiate what is good and bad for them. As a
consequence, they may get involved in social problems and crimes because of lack of
parental guidance.
Editor's version:
Nevertheless, people also commit crimes because of OTHER FACTORS SUCH AS
lack of PARENTAL love and guidance SO IT IS CLEAR THAT WE CANNOT SIMPLY
BLAME SELFISHNESS AND GREED FOR CRIMES COMMITTED. When children ARE
not the priority of parents, moral values will hardly be instilled in their children.
THESE CHILDREN MAY EVENTUALLY fail to differentiate what is good and bad for
them. As a consequence, they may get involved in social problems and crimes
SUCH AS DRUG ABUSE, THEFT, ABORTION, BABY DUMPING AND SO ON. HENCE, IN
THESE CASES, CRIMES ARE COMMITTED NOT FOR SELFISH REASONS BUT because
of lack of parental guidance, THE NEED TO GET PARENTS' ATTENTION OR OTHER
EXTERNAL FACTORS.
Editor's notes:
Again, the topic sentence needs to clearly state that there are other factors that lead to
crimes being committed other than for selfish reasons, especially greed (as stated in the
previous paragraph - it is important to LINK the previous idea to a contrasting new idea so
that the flow of logic is not impeded). Notice the use of the word 'MAY' to indicate probability
and avoid generalisations. Adding 'social problems' is not a good idea because the focus is
on crimes, but do add examples of crimes that happen due to other factors such as lack of
parental guidance etc. Also, the final sentence should conclude the point eloquently.

Nazri's Conclusion:
In conclusion, people commit crimes are not only for selfish reasons but also because of
other motivation such as environmental factors. Most of them commit crimes because of
narrow minded and do not have enough money to bear the cost of living. Therefore, our
government with the help of relevant authorities should increase the safety at a place where
crimes often occur and help poor family. Besides that, parents should spend more time for
their growing children.
Edited version:
In conclusion, IT IS CRYSTAL CLEAR THAT THERE ARE TWO FACES TO A COIN
WHEREBY people commit crimes not only for selfish reasons but also because of
other FACTORS such as their ENVIRONMENT AND UPBRINGING. Most SOME of
them commit crimes because of NARROW-MINDEDNESS OR THEY do not have
enough money to bear the cost of living, AMONG OTHER ISSUES. I STILL
ABSOLUTELY BELIEVE THAT SELFISH REASONS ARE NOT THE MAIN CONTRIBUTING
FACTOR AND THAT THERE ARE MANY OTHER REASONS FOR CRIME TO BE
CONSIDERED. OUR government HAS A ROLE TO PLAY IN ENSURING the relevant

authorities increase the PUBLIC'S safety at placeS where crimes often occur. THE
SOCIAL WELFARE DEPARTMENT MAY ALSO LOOK INTO STRATEGIES TO help poor
FAMILIES SO CRIME CAN BE AVOIDED FROM THE GRASSROOTS. Besides that,
NATIONAL CAMPAIGNS SHOULD ALSO BE CARRIED OUT TO EDUCATE parents ON
SPENDING QUALITY TIME WITH THEIR CHILDREN AND ENSURING A SOUND MORAL
UPBRINGING. THEREFORE, WE WILL BE ABLE TO PRODUCE A FUTURE GENERATION
THAT STEERS CLEAR AWAY FROM CRIMES OF ALL KINDS AND INSTEAD CREATING
YOUTHS THAT CAN CONTRIBUTE PRODUCTIVELY TO OUR NATION'S PROSPERITY.
Editor's notes:
A good conclusion should have 3 parts, ie repeat the points in a more creative way, repeat
your stand from the introduction and outline some recommendations for this issue. It is also
wise to end on a high note because the conclusion gives the reader and examiner a lasting
impression so you might as well end with a bang!

GRAMMAR FIRST.
I've developed some basic rules. If you can follow it, i'm sure your writing will improve by
leaps and bounds.

Firstly, you must learn (memorise) all the words in the table of tenses. There are 4 columns,
all starting with 'P'.

P1 - Present tense (+s or -s) [for now, facts or habits]

P2 - Process (+ing) [takes time to complete]
P3 - Past (+ed or spelling change) [for stories that are over]
P4 - Participle (=ed, spelling change or +n) [for perfect tense and passive sentences]

Here are the common words in English according to the table of tenses.
P1 - P2 - P3 - P4

has/have - having - had - had

goes/go - going - went - gone
gives/give - giving - gave - given
chooses/choose - choosing - chose - chosen
buys/buy - buying - bought - bought
flies/fly - flying - flew - flown
sings/sing - singing - sang - sung
cuts/cut - cutting - cut - cut
puts/put - putting - put - put
becomes/become - becoming - became - become
*smiles/smile - smiling - smiled - smiled
*explains/explain - explaining - explained - explained

* if you notice P3 and P4 looks the same in smiled and explained but they are completely
different meanings.
the 4 columns in Malay actually means:
p1 - sekarang
p2 - sedang (imbuhan me-)
p3 - telah
p4 - imbuhan diso for 'kick'
kicks/kick - kicking - kicked - kicked
is actually in Malay
tendang - menendang - telah tendang - ditendang.
Get it?

Now for the rules:

1. P1: present

1 +s, >1 -s (except for sentences that start with 'You' or 'I')

1 +s
He likes to eat. (Correct)
He like to eat. (Wrong)
>1 -s
They like to eat. (Correct)
They likes to eat. (Wrong)

1 +s
She is a prefect now. (Correct)
She was a prefect last year too. (Correct)
She are a prefect now. (Wrong)
She were a prefect last year too. (Wrong)

>1 -s
They are prefects now. (Correct)
They were prefects last year too. (Correct)
They is prefects now. (Wrong)
They was prefects last year. (Wrong)

Sometimes the verb is quite far away but the rules still apply.

1 +s
The student reading the biology book is the top student.

>1 -s
The students reading the biology book are the top students.

2. P2: Process (+ing) (imbuhan me-)

If you want to use 'ing' it cannot stand alone
It needs one of the Be5 (am/is/are/was/were)
The 5 versions of Be5 are very important words that are always lost when translating directly
from Malay or Chinese as it doesn't exist in these languages.

The baby is sleeping soundly. (Correct)

The baby sleeping soundly. (Wrong)
The babies are sleeping soundly. (Correct)
The babies sleeping soundly. (Wrong)

*notice you need a combination of 2 words to make the process sentences correct!

3. P3: Past (+ed/spelling change)

There is no rule. You have to just memorise all the words in this column.

4. P4: Participle (+ed/spelling change/+n)

This is the trickiest part of English grammar.

There are 2 uses: perfect tenses and passives.

a) Perfect tenses: 3H + P4
if you see the words Has/Have/Had, it MUST be followed by P4.

3H + P4
He has eaten the cake. (Correct)
They have eaten the cake. (Correct)
The boys had eaten the cake yesterday. (Correct)

He has eat the cake. (Wrong)

They have eating the cake. (Wrong)
The boys had ate the cake yesterday. (Wrong)

b) Passive sentences: Be5 + P4 (Imbuhan di-) [kek dimakan, bukannya dia dimakan]
The cake was eaten by him. (Correct)
The cakes were eaten by them. (Correct)
The cake eaten by him. (Wrong)
The cakes eating by them. (Wrong)

Be5 + P4 (don't confuse kicked with P3)

The ball is kicked by him. (Correct)
The balls were kicked by him. (Correct)
The ball kicked by him. (Wrong)
The balls kicking by him. (Wrong)

* Passive sentences are a combination of 2 WORDS: Be5 +P4, not P3. But sometimes if the
spelling it +ed, it looks like P3, but the function is actually P4.

5. Other rules:

a) to + ori
to give (correct)
to gives, to giving, to gave, to given (wrong)

b) to + be + P4
to be taken (correct)

to be take, to be takes, to be taking, to be took (wrong)

c) modals: can/cannot/may/must/mustn't/should/shouldn't/will/would etc

modals + ori
can swim (correct)
can swims, can swimming, can swam, can swum (wrong)

d) modals + be + P4
must be discussed (correct)
must be discuss, must be discusses, must be discussing (wrong)

e) by + ing
by taking the bus (correct)
by takes, by take, by took, by taken (wrong)

f) for + ing
for demonstrating (correct)
for demonstrate, for demonstrates, for demonstrated (wrong)

g)
3H + been + P2
has been taking (correct)
has been take, has been takes, has been took (wrong)
or
3H + been + P4
has been taken (correct)

* P2 is used if the process takes a long time,

P4 is used if it is a passive sentence.

Sample 1
Students should be allowed to bring mobile phones to school.
In this era of information technology and social media, mobile phones are becoming
more of a norm than a luxury item. In fact, more and more students are able to save their
money and buy mobile phones of various brands such as Samsung, HTC, Lenovo and Oppo
in order to stay connected with their friends and family. In my humble opinion, I truly believe
that students should be allowed to bring mobile phones to school because it is good to teach
them to be responsible for their own belongings. There are a few reasons for this, namely,
easier to communicate (A1), an excellent source of information (A2) and schools can control
usage of phones (A3).
Firstly, students should be allowed to bring their mobile phones to school because it will
definitely make communication easier for everyone. This means that the mobile phone is a
useful tool to make calls or send messages. Moreover, it is very convenient to inform our
parents if there are any changes to the timetable. For example, if we need to let our parents
know when to pick us up if the school suddenly has a program such as IM1S, co-curricular
activities, marching practice and so on. Therefore, if students are allowed to bring their
handphones to school it would be so much easier to keep everyone informed about our
whereabouts.
Secondly, mobiles phones are an excellent source of information and this is another factor
why we should allow students to bring them to school. This is because students who have
smartphones will have access to all the information on the internet at the tip of their fingers.
In addition, it will help them do their work better and more efficiently. For instance, they can
research online for information on projects given to them by teachers such as researching
facts on famous people, science experiments, essays, reports and many more. Thus,
allowing students to bring mobile phones to school will help them tap into the multitude of
information that exists in the world wide web today.

Finally, a final factor why I agree that students should be allowed to bring mobile phones to
school is that the usage can still be controlled by the school authorities. The main reason for
this is that the teachers have to explain the rules clearly to students that they can only use
it outside the class teaching hours such as before and after lessons and during recess.
Furthermore, it will teach students to be more responsible for their own things and make
them better adults. Take for example the rule that if they use it during lessons the teachers
can confiscate the phones, report to the discipline master, call their parents and others.
Hence, it is the schools responsibility to control the usage of the mobile phones so that it
can bring more advantages to the students especially in improving their education.
Conversely, there are other factors why mobile phones should not be allowed. This is
because some students who do not have mobile phones will feel inferior compared to their
rich friends who can afford smart phones. Additionally, handphones can be very distracting
to the students because they will constantly want to look at their phones. Some examples
are students become distracted when they play games, watch Youtube, make funny videos
of their friends and teachers, cheat during examinations and so on. Ultimately, there are
always two sides to a coin so we should realise and accept that there will be some
disadvantages of allowing students to bring their phones to school.
In short, students should be allowed to bring mobile phones to school because handphones
ease communication, allows students unlimited access to online information and the school
authorities can still control the usage so normal lessons are not disrupted even though there
are some disadvantages. I still absolutely agree that students should be allowed to bring
mobile phones to school because it is a useful learning tool. I hope that the government
through the Ministry of Multimedia and Communication should spearhead a comprehensive
strategy to provide a solution by giving smartphones and providing free Wifi connection to
all students in Malaysia.

Sample 2
Money is the most important thing in modern life.
In this era of modernisation, money seems to be the most important thing in life. In
fact, without money, life would be quite a torture because we would not be able to buy what
we want including food, clothes or even afford a safe place to stay. People would do anything
for money, hence the saying Money is the root of all evil. From my perspecctive, I totally
disagree that money is the most important thing in modern life because we cannot survive
on money alone. There are a few reasons for this, namely, family is by far more important in
life (A1) followed by religion (A2) and good health (A3).
First and foremost, money is not the most important thing in modern life because family is
much more important than money. This means that even though we are poor, we will still be
able to survive with the support of our family members. Moreover, parents who love their
children will work hard to earn money so that they can all live a better life. For example, we
will always turn to and rely on our family members for support when there is a problem,
accident, disaster and so on. Therefore, money is not the most important thing in modern
life because family always comes first.
Secondly, a strong upbringing in religion is another factor why money is not the most
important thing in life. This is because in times of problems and pain, each person normally

turns to religion for support because a strong belief will give people strength to face all
situations. In addition, it does not cost any money to have a good religious upbringing. For
instance, parents can ensure that through religion, their children can differentiate black from
white, bad from good and make the right choices in life, love, career, friends and many
more. Thus, the keyword is most and money is surely not the most important because a
family with a good religious background is by far more important than having money.
Last but not least, a final factor why money is not the most important thing in modern life is
health is wealth and no amount of money can buy good health. The main reason for this is in
comparison to money, health is definitely more important because if we do not have good
health, life would be very hard to live to the fullest. Furthermore, good health is essential if
we want to make money to support ourselves and our family. Take for example a person with
good health can get a good job like being a pilot, teacher, doctor and others. Hence, without
good health, money is meaningless and all the money earned will be spent on paying for
doctor fees and medicine.
On the contrary, there are other factors why money is important in this modern life even
though it is not the most important. This is because modern lifestyle is not cheap and there
are many bills to be paid in order to survive. Additionally, we are no longer living in the era
where we can build a house out of materials from the forest or plant food and hunt or gather
in order to eat. Some examples of a modern life are we need money to buy a house or pay
rent, purchase food and clothes, pay for school fees and buy books and stationery, travel,
eat out in fancy restaurants or fast food outlets and so on. Ultimately, it cannot be denied
that money is still very important but it is not the most important thing in this modern life.
In a nutshell, money is not the most important thing in our changing world today because
family comes first, religion provides us a solid foundation and health is wealth even though
there are some reasons why money is important for our survival in this modern world. I still
absolutely think that money cannot be the most important thing in life because family,
religion and health will always come first. I hope that the non-governmental organisations
such as Sabah Womens Association (SAWO) should organise an effective campaign to
overcome materialism and teach the community that money is not everything by conducting
Family First talks and raising awareness on Health is Wealth.
