Some people prefer to shop for food in supermarket while some others prefer to shop online. Discuss both view and give your opinion.

The way of shopping is rapidly changing since
last
decades. Before 10-15 years it was like retail
shops
in local
market
where we use to go with our parents and
then
it came to branding. Brands open their own retail chains or they are in big shopping mall. So
instead
of visiting local
shops
in
market
we change our style of shopping to mall shopping. And Now a
days
we are in age on internet where everything is done online and so shopping
also
. So now no visit to malls just see online and buy whatever you like with so many options.
Although
most of new generation has changed their way of shopping to online shopping but there is always delima of shopping of
food
item. Before few years there were local retail grocery
shops
in local area from where we used to buy our
food
items
. But with changing trends foods
also
started selling in super markets in malls. And now a
days
there are e-commerce sites where you can buy
food
online. So i will discuss both the ways of doing
food
shopping through
supermarket
and online.
Food
shopping through
Supermarket
Advantages:- 1.
Food
is item which is generally seen, feel and tasted (sometimes) and
then
we buy. so in super
market
we can see live
food
. 2.
Food
items
like vegetable and fruits should be checked properly before buying. 3. Now a
days
almost all international brand foods are easily avaialble in
supermarket
, so we have variety for selection. 4. On packed
food
items
we can check expiry date before buying it. 5. By buying through
supermarket
we are helping our economy by generating jobs for staff in
supermarket
. 6. Almost all super
market
buy local
food
items
directly from farmers we are
also
generating income for them. Disadvantage 1. By visiting
supermarket
we are wasting both time and energy. 2. Cost of maintenance of
supermarket
is high
then
online so it will add up in price of
items
. So rate will increase. 3. When we personally go for purchasing many times we end up buying unwanted things. Shopping online Advantages :- 1. we can compare price online and we can buy at best possible rate. 2. Now a
days
all
Food
brands publish online all small details like expiery date, nutrition value. so it is as like physical checking only. 3. There is no maintenance cost here. 4. We get delivery of our shopping at our home at desired time so it saves time and energy both. 5. we get many options of buying single product online. Disadvantages:- 1. Many times wrong details are published and
food
products are delivered. 2.
Food
items
like fruit and vegetables are not good option to buy online as we cannot see them live and select it. Example - buying vegetable online like cucumber might you get stale product at your place. 3.It is harmful for economy in terms of employement and
also
local farmers income.
Although
new generation is turning towards online shopping, but
according to
me you can do all other things shopping online but
food
item should be bought from
supermarket
or local
shops
. It would help the economy and
also
you will be getting product of your choice and liking.

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
