I uploaded here a model of the answer sheet for those who want practice in real conditions.

It could be usefull since you make a connection between the size of your text in the paper with the number of words.

Relishing the chance, I will post one of my essays for evaluation. :D

Question:

You should spend about 40 minutes on this task.
Present a written argument or case to an educated reader with no specialist knowledge of the
following topic.
"Fatherhood ought to be emphasised as much as motherhood. The idea that women are
solely responsible for deciding whether or not to have babies leads on to the idea that they
are also responsible for bringing the children up."
To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Answer:

If we ask a person “what is most important for you: your mother or your father?” we would hear in the most of cases “my mother”. However, some advocate that the answer for that question should be “both of them”. It is agreed that motherhood and fatherhood should be equally important for a child. The division of responsibilities and the relevance of a male figure in a child life are two arguments which prove the previous statement.
The small attention around the fatherhood makes the responsibility for bringing the child up be a mother department. As a consequence of this culture, thousands of children even know their fathers, and mothers became overload with tasks of motherhood. For this reason, this aspect should change, and mothers and fathers should have equal importance in raising their children.
Another point is that without a male figure in home, the kid could raise without half of genre reference. This aspect could affect, for instance, the manner how the future adult will relate with the opposite sex, or even how he (if the child is a man) will behave. A male figure support the children genre problems, even the simple ones, like how to shave or how to change a lamp, something that most of women do not risk to try.
Finally, the tasks of bringing the child up should be shared among the parents (is a very hard task to a solitary mother), and the influence that a father has in his kid could influence the adult that she/he will become. However, these aspects could happen just if fatherhood be emphasized as much motherhood. Because, after all, everybody knows that it is the best option for their children.
