Although more and more people read the news on the internet, newspapers will remain the most important source of new. Do you agree or disagree with this statement?

In the present situation where many people are searching for news on Google, it has been a debatable issue whether newspapers or broadcasting can remain the most essential means of conveying information or not. While some people agree with the above opinion, I personally contend that conventional newspapers will disappear in several decades with the following two rationales.

To begin

with, the development of technology has accelerated the process of transmitting information between providers and consumers.

For instance

, nowadays, it is almost impossible not to witness people with no mobile devices,

such

as smartphones, tablets, and Macbooks. While we could only use the rudimentary type of cell phones in the early 20c. And the change has reduced the distance between news and viewers; people can speak and communicate in real-time even if there was an accident a couple of minutes ago by using YouTube live or something similar. Everybody is able to become a reporter or a viewer, and I believe

that is

a revolutionary alteration. Another reason I find the upheaval more reasonable is that conventional newspapers have been manipulated. To be specific, from WW2, when Nazis spread their malicious, detrimental and manipulative propagandas, to the recent cases, when Japan regime is controlling official broadcasts to hide the truth of an enormous amount of nuclear emission in Fukushima. The prime minister, Abe, mentioned 'everything is under control,', and the official, private broadcasts have never questioned regarding the issue against the government.

Likewise

, traditional news is likely to be used as a powerful tool for people who have money and authority;

therefore

, people have been finding a better way to replace outdated means. In conclusion, while some people believe that conventional news will continue in the future, I am convinced that newspapers and broadcasts will be disappeared in several decades because the power of technology is strong enough to address the corruption across worldwide media.

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

Summary
Restatement of thesis
Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

In conclusion
To conclude
To summarize
Finally
In a nutshell
In general

In the past, many male leaders have led our society to conflicts and violence. The world would be better governed and more peaceful if it was ruled by women. To what extent do you agree or disagree.
There are controversial perspectives heating up a debate over the impacts of genders on society. While some claim that the way men lead may trigger violence and unpeaceful society, the opposite makes a statement that women can make non- violent decisions which would be better in terms of persuasion than men do. Whilst the former is valid to some extent, I consider myself a supporter of the latter.
