In the

last

10 years, the virtual world has changed the way we interact with people. It has been a game changer in the current generation.

Although

, people now prefer to use their electronic devices to interact with family and friends, I believe as

time

goes on, the dangers of using devices and having access to internet all the

time

will increase significantly. Back in the olden days, when people were bored or wanted to spend some quality

time

with friends, they would make the effort of meeting with each other.

However

, these days social media platforms

such

as Facebook, Instagram and Twitter have made it really easy to stay in touch with friends without having to leave

homes

Therefore

, frequent use of computers and other electronic devices can increase communication between people who are shy and reserve in person. In a nutshell, the usage of electronic devices will have a detrimental effect on communication. Some may feel it helps them stay in touch with friends whilst having a busy job, others may feel face to face interaction is necessary to convey emotions. I would like to suggest a balance between the two is the best way forward.

Some people think that zoos are cruel and should be closed down. Others, however, believe that zoos can be useful in protecting wild animals. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
Some people argue that zoos help to preserve wild creatures, while others say that they are inhumane and should be abolished.
