In many countries, very few young people read newspapers or follow the news on TV. What do you think are the causes of this? What solutions can you suggest?

Nowadays, youngsters are not interested in reading
newspapers
or getting
news
on television. Even though some
people
say that teenagers care nothing but themselves, so they don't think that the
news
is necessary for their life. But as we can see, many young
people
get
information
faster than many adults. In my opinion, those youngsters have their way of receiving the
news
and
information
. In part,
people
receive the
news
manually,
such
as through
newspapers
and
TV
. Morning coffee with the sound on television or
newspapers
in hands. Nowadays, when time has changed, the lifestyle of getting
news
has changed too. Young
people
use technology to receive
information
. It is faster and easily accessible. Nobody waits for Monday morning's
newspapers
or the
news
on channel nine on Friday night when they can receive the
information
in a minute or faster.
For example
, those youngsters could get the deforest
news
in Indonesia on Twister, Facebook, or Instagram just real-time when it is still happening, and with full options like the video recording. Young
people
read the
news
on their way and can discuss it with those who read in
newspapers
or watch
TV
. They know even more. In conclusion, I suggest that
instead
of trying to practice for teenagers to read more
newspapers
, it is better to learn how they receive the
news
and
information
and discuss it respectfully. Those young
people
may surprise you with much
information
without reading
newspapers
or watching
TV
.
Then
you will know why really few young
people
read
newspapers
or follow the
news
on
TV
.

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.
