The question above wants to assess your ability to write an essay. For that reason, it's not right for me to write an essay for you, but I'll show you how to write one.
First, you should know that this will be an argumentative essay, as the question wants you to show your opinion on the importance of completing tasks on time.
In this case, an argumentative essay is one in which you show arguments, that is, proven opinions on a certain subject.
Therefore, you should think about your opinion on this subject and research articles and other essays that prove that your opinion is correct.
You can write the essay as follows:
- Introduction: Introduce the subject of your essay and show your main opinion. This main opinion will be your thesis statement.
- Body: Write two paragraphs where you develop this opinion, showing other arguments and proving them through data and information that proves them. You can show an opinion contrary to yours and use data to show that it is wrong.
- Conclusion: Finish your essay by summarizing your arguments and strengthening your thesis statement.

Explanation:
The People of Sparks is a sequel to The City of Ember and tells the continuing story of the citizens of the dead underground city of Ember as they emerge to the surface of a post-apocalyptic Earth and try to make their way with the help of the people of a village called Sparks.
Led by the young teenagers Doon Harrow and Lina Mayfleet, the 400 citizens of Ember walk several days after climbing from the cave where Ember was located. Tired and hungry, they come across an agricultural village called Sparks, which agrees to take in the Emberites for a time and provide them with food.
Lina, her guardian Mrs. Murdo, and her young sister, Poppy, who is ill, are sent to stay at the home of Dr. Hester and her young nephew, Torren, who resents the newcomers. Meanwhile Doon and his father go to stay with the bulk of the Emberites who have been put up in an large abandoned hotel building.
The Emberites learn from the people of Sparks that several generations before the world had been afflicted by widespread disease and war, leaving the largest cities abandoned in ruins. A few settlements existed like Sparks, with wanderers traveling from place to place scavenging abandoned buildings and trading items.
Lina believes that the people of Ember are perhaps destined to re-inhabit one of these abandoned cities and she secretly stows away with a traveler headed for one of the cities. She abandons her dream when she sees the extent of the ruination.
Lina is gone for several weeks. She returns to find that in the meantime tensions between the people of Sparks and Ember have come to a head. The people of Sparks grow resentful of having to share their food stores with the Emberites, and the Emberites, who provide work in exchange for the food, begin to feel they are being mistreated. When Doon is wrongly blamed for destroying some crates of tomatoes, he begins to sympathize with the growing group of Emberites following a young man named Tick, who advocates fighting the people of Sparks and taking over their food supply.
