#communications #it’s #letters
✨ Do you want to improve your IELTS writing?
Nowadays, the communication between people and friends has changed thanks to the evolution of technology, which gives us the opportunity to not need to write any more
letters
. The development of the internet has caused
such
 change in society.
Therefore
, I agree with
this
 topic that writing
letters
 are no longer necessary as a means of communication.
Firstly
, everybody’s lifestyle has changed in the
last
 two decades, becoming very busy personal and business-wise. The modern development of working at an office requires us to be very efficient and quick. For
this
 reason, we are always looking for something that would make our lives easier and faster, in which case, the way we communicate with others.
For example
, persons no longer need to leave the confinement of their workspace to pass information. The use of emails has made communicating with employees and bosses so much easier with responses within minutes. Technology has improved work life and does not require the tedious tasks of writing
letters
.
Secondly
, in modern evolution, we do not communicate with our friends or pen pals by writing
letters
.
Letters
 can get misplaced or take a longer process,
however
, the use of social networks has become more efficient and faster.
Furthermore
, it would be difficult to find someone who still uses the old communication’s system. As an instance, when I started my
first
 work experience, it was very informal to operate a social network as a system to communicate with customers, despite everyone having started the adoption of them. Nowadays, it is strongly recommended by marketing experts to put logos of social networks on business cards. In conclusion, I believe that we do not need to write
letters
 anymore because at
this
 point in our lives the world has developed with technology being more advanced.
Therefore
, modern communications take the place of the old transmission of written information .

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
