Although more and more people read news on the Internet, newspapers will remain the most important source of news. Do you agree or disagree?

#people #news #internet #newspapers #source

Some people argue that the Internet is starting to rival newspapers as the best place to find information about what is happening in the world.

Although

I can see the opposite side, I tend to believe

this

trend will continue and it will soon be as important as the traditional press. Admittedly, traditional sources are still an important tool to keep abreast of events, especially for many older people. One reason is that they are generally not familiar with that electronic equipment

such

as smartphones and desktops, suggesting they potentially find it difficult to search for good information online and they arguably do not like reading from a screen. Another reason may well be that the quality and accuracy of online news are variable and frequently untrustworthy. The Internet allows anyone to publish their own writing, which invariably enables the dissemination of misleading and dangerous views. While newspaper articles are usually written by professionals and these traditional sources often pride themselves on impartiality and rigorous fact-checking,

therefore

producing better quality writing than websites.

Nevertheless

, I feel, that online blogs and websites will soon become as prevalent as the press for two main reasons.

Firstly

, it is more quickly and conveniently to access accounts online. By using tablets or other wearable devices, consumers can be connected to twenty-four-hour report sources, leading to them not only being constantly informed but

also

regarding printed newspapers as old-fashioned and obsolete.

Secondly

, newspapers and books are gradually published online as well as in print. We can read them in any language from any country in today's world.

For example

, I have subscribed to a newspaper website for two years, keeping me aware of interesting reports and stories from the comfort of my home. In conclusion,

although

I agree that the press will remain the main source of news, I believe that the Internet will be equally important.

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

Some people say that advertising is extremely succesfull at persuading us to buy things. Other people think that advertising is so common that we no longer pay attention to it. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
Some people think that advertisement has lost its spark because it has grown so much that people can see it anywhere, either viewing it in person or digitally. However, I believe it brings great benefits because businesses use various creative campaigns that stand out from others.

Some people feel that cities should allow for spaces for graffiti while others feel it should be banned. Discuss both sides and give your own opinion.
In recent years, there has been a tremendous increase in the number of people questioning whether cities should legalize the graffiti art and open spaces for them. On the one hand, there are those who argue that this will serve a medium for self-representation and creativity. However, critics, including myself, strongly oppose this view and instead believe that this will significantly increase the vandalism of public properties.
