In the future, nobody will buy printed newspapers or books because they will be able to read everything they want online without paying. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement.

There is an argument that tomorrow
people
will choose to read online newspapers and e-books than printed ones because those are free. Many arguments have been made for and against over
paper
used than an online
source
.
However
, while I believe the online
source
is mainly beneficial to the one generation, I agree that they have had a damaging effect on other communities. With regards to the Go Green campaign, the impact that online access
source
has had on each individual or concerned
people
has clear advantages. As we know that books, newspapers, and magazines need
paper
to print, while the main material for making
paper
is cellulose found in wood. The more
paper
we require, the more wood we need. So we are supporting our natural resources by reducing the
paper
used.
Besides
,
people
will get other benefits by accessing the online
media
source
namely e-books, e-newspapers, and e-magazines.
For example
, the teacher and
also
students could get the education
media
easily by browsing and typing the keyword that they need.
In addition
,
people
will get new, faster, and cheaper information
everyday

and everywhere with only using their gadgets.
On the other hand
, the effect that online sources are accessed online and free have had on societies can be seen as negative. It will impact the company that produces the printed book, newspaper, and magazine, which
consequently
bankruptcy of printed
media
business. There will be a lot of employees who are laid off from their jobs,

the editor, illustrator, administrator, and so on.
Moreover
, there are other groups of
people
who could not access the technology freely, because of their inability, specifically the children and old
people
. The
first
-grade elementary school students still need a book
instead
of an e-book because they have to do writing practice for their
first
time using a pencil. As we know that writing in a printed book will
also
stimulate their motoric neural network.
In addition
, staring at the screen too much will affect children's eye health. To conclude,
although
the online
media
sites have brought society reading lifestyle easily, it has not had the same effect on other groups of
people
. The government and educator roles are needed in
this
case to still support the printed
media
used. It is because not all
people
will choose the online ones and the printed
media
company needs support to stay stand.

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
