Band 6

In recent years, more and more people are choosing to read e-books rather than paper books. Do the advantages outweigh the disadvantages?

New technologies are developing sharply, and more and more of them are becoming an important part of
people
’s lives. The idea of
e-
books
 is not quite new,
however

 using them

increases. In

 I will highlight the main advantages and disadvantages of
this
 technology.
One
 of the most important pluses is that it is a great bargain.
One
 buys an e-book and can read as many
books
 as he wants. It means that
people
 can download book files in a special format,
for example
 in epub, and
then
 share it from PC to e-book, so they pay only once and
then
 do not think about going somewhere and buying a new book.
Moreover
, it is a great alternative for
people
 who are reading a couple of
books

 but do not have an opportunity to carry all of them with them to an office or a university.
Thus
,
one
 can have as many
books
 with him as wants.
Last
 but not least reason is that
people
 who buy
e-
books
 are saving trees from cutting down. As all of us know, deforestation is
one
 of the most vital problems of modern society and, by reducing using paper, we help our planet.
Nevertheless
, there are some drawbacks and
one
 of them is that while reading
e-
books
people
 hurt their eyes, so
in other words
, it can cause some issues connecting with eyes, despite the fact that modern
e-
books
 have super digital and innovative screens. But the majority of
people
 cannot read digital
books
 a lot, because there is no
such
 feeling of romantic. It is complicated to explain,
nevertheless
, big funs of reading do agree with
this
 statement. All in all, reading is a process and tradition that was developing with our world, but now it experiencing so dramatic changes. But taking into account the environmental situation, the temp of life in big cities and the necessities of modern society I strongly believe that in 10 or 15 years
people
 will not use paper
books
 anymore.

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
