Nowadays, with advance of technology and transportation facilities, people can work and live anywhere they want. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages and give your opinion.

In recent years,
tech
and
transportation
systems have been progressing dramatically and thanks to
such
development,
people
have massive options to decide about their intended sites of working and living. While
such
advancement brings
people
some opportunities
such
as remote working and connecting
people
from different regions, the negative impact on the way
people
communicate is undeniable. Despite
this
, in my view plus points of improvement in technology and
transportation
industries is so valuable that the drawbacks can be overlooked. In
this
regard, I will discuss the pros against cons as follows: There are many benefits to the development of the
tech
industry and
transportation
systems.
Firstly
, high technology gives employees permission to work all over the world.
this
is to say that in
this
tight labour market, employers show a tendency to hire skilled workers from different countries. It’s a mutual achievement since clients find the required labour and workforces may make a profit from the exchange rate of currencies.
For example
one of my friends live in Tehran and works from home for a company in Germany and she earns money in the dollar which is more valuable than local currency.
Secondly
, in the past owing lack of enough facilities for
transportation
,
people
had to live close to their workplace or stand difficulties in transporting but nowadays commuting infrastructure
such
as roads, and public
transportation
is expanded and facilitates for
people
to work far from their offices.
for instance
, in my country instruction of the subway which connects Karaj to Tehran makes it convenient for commuters to transport.
Finally
, with
such
mentioned pros, beneficiaries of
tech
and transport facilities are higher than the losses.
Conversely
, there are some disadvantages in
this
regard. With advances in technology,
people
do everything on digital platforms.
this
is not to say that it prevents wasting time and facilitates many things, but it affects badly on communication style.
In other words
, social media are replaceable for physical visiting. As an example, many
people
communicate with each other through video calls or chat
instead
of getting gathering or hanging out. In spite of
this
, the pros of
such
improvement outweigh the cons. To sum up, along with the bad effect on the connection way with
tech
advances, there are many positive points like long-distance working and facilitation in transporting which make that makes the advantages surpass the disadvantages.

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.
