Do you mean if I change my last sentence, then I can get 30 in 30 ???

The only problem for you is
The only problem for you is the content. You like to give examples. This may be not good for high marks.

You are using this simple pattern for TOEFL Q1-Q2:
first 1-2 sentences: introduction. my opinion: A or B. agree or disagree. about 5-10 seconds
First, reason 1 (1 sentence) + example 1 // about 15-20 seconds
Second, reason 2 (1 sentence) + example 2. // about 15-20 seconds
--------------------------
The above is very basic for the beginning. After some practice, you may try this pattern for Q1-Q2:
first 1-2 sentences: introduction. my opinion: A or B. agree or disagree. about 5-10 seconds
First, reason 1 (1 sentence) + why reason 1 (some arguments. 1-2 sentence) + a small conclusion for reason 1(like advantages of reason 1 or comparisons if not reason 1, 1-2 sentence). // about 15-20 seconds
Second, reason 2 (1 sentence) + why reason 2 (some arguments. 1-2 sentence) + a small conclusion for reason 2(like advantages of reason 2 or comparisons if not reason 2, 1-2 sentence). // about 15-20 seconds
---------------------
Look at the pattern two, there are no specific examples, but more arguments.
