Overall Feedback

The essay has some grammatical accuracy but lacks coherence and cohesion. The task response is weak as it does not directly address the question, and the lexical resource is limited with some repetition and lack of variety.

Thesis Statement
In the contemporary world, with the rapid growth of technology, we are witnessing great advances in different fields.
Sometimes
, it is argued that it could be good practice for
companies
and other institutions that instead of
working
on
innovations
that just make
profits
, they should
work
on
innovations
and
ideas
that benefit the environment and social problems. While I understand the advantages of prioritizing
ideas
to address
people
's daily routine issues, I
completely
disagree with this notion.
On the one hand, environmentally friendly
innovation
could benefit individuals, especially future generations. For example, new
ideas
about creating efficient cars and renewable energy have many advantages that could be helpful for our general health. Besides,
people
could trust institutions that care about the environment and
people
. When big
companies
and conglomerates start to care about
innovation
that addresses
people
’s problems, it could encourage
people
and students to spend their time on something similar. Despite all of these sentences, I am afraid I would argue against this
idea
because I think all of these claims would be unrealistic in the modern world.
On the other hand,
companies
need money to survive and serve their clients; without any
profits
, they cannot even pay their employees. A good
innovation
needs a proper group of skilled workers to
work
on it; training workers, scientists, researchers, and managers cost a lot of money. Another reason worth mentioning here is the fact that
companies
or
people
who devote their time to an
idea
should be motivated to try harder; without any
profits
, no one tends to
work
any further. Plus, when the
company
’s income is low, professionals
don’t
try to get a job at that
company
because of the lack of market cap.
