Rules
For example:
can/ can not do/ do not is/ is not


1)NO CONTRACTIONS
However, the point is that you should always use the full form of the verbs in academic writings and not the contraction or short form.
Once again, I’m talking about formal or academic writing and this includes task 2 of IELTS writing (essay), task 1 general module (formal letter), task 1 academic module (charts).
So, do not use these contractions and write out the word in full.
Don’t/ do not
Doesn’t/ does not
Shouldn’t/ should not
Can’t/ cannot
Couldn’t/ could not
Wouldn’t/ would not
Isn’t/ is not
Aren’t/ are not
Wasn’t/ was not
Weren’t/ were not
Haven’t/ have not
Hasn’t/ has not

Advice
2) No REALLY, A LOT, VERY, SO
These are some very common words you read or hear a lot and that’s exactly why you should avoid and replace them with better alternatives. You need some better options to write a strong writing.
For example, instead of saying:
She was really sorry about the trouble she made.
You can say: She was terribly sorry about the trouble she made.
Instead of saying: A lot of people gain a reputation for complete honesty in their business dealings.
You can say: Many/ a number of people gain a reputation for complete honesty in their business dealings.
Instead of saying: The water of the ocean is very choppy when there are high winds.
You can say: The water of the ocean is extremely choppy when there are high winds.
Instead of saying: The earth has become so polluted due to the burning of fossil fuels.
You can say: The earth has become awfully polluted due to the burning of fossil fuels.
