Then what gives us high marks in english?
Basically, it depends on which type of directed writing has been provided to you. Every task has its own register and specific vocabulary. Use can use idiomatic expression, but that must not go against the register

Hit like if it helped :D

yea occasional idioms will definitely leave a nice impression on the examiner however substantial amount of them wud not luk good and the same thing will happen as an idiom is "too much spices spoil the broth"
