IELTS Writing Task 2: band 9 paragraph - Ielts-Simon.com

This band 9 paragraph was extracted from ielts-simon.com blog. It's a good model to study :)

On the other hand, I can understand the view taken by many people that artists should not expect the state to fund their work. Most musicians and the majority of painters make a living by performing or selling their artistic creations to fans or collectors; they would not expect to receive any help from their governments. Industry sponsorships can be another useful source of revenue for creative artists. For example, media companies like the mobile giant Apple are often willing to pay huge fees to inspirational designers who work on their advertising campaigns, product packaging, and even the appearance of their electronic devices. Finally, some artists may be lucky enough to receive donations from wealthy individuals.

Very First Bloggggggggggggggggg ^_^

This is my very first blog and I dunno what to post =))) I'll just let my writing flow naturally :))

Recently I have watched a YouTube video named Life Vest Inside - Kindness Boomerang, Its context is simple, yet touching and meaningful so I post it here, to remind myself or those who visit my blog that "spread your kindness everyday, it's not that hard :) "

Enjoy it! ^^

Btw, I converted the music out of the video as the soundtrack was also really moving. Here I published it on my SoundCloud:
