In
this
 technologically sophisticated era, everything is being digitalised including all sorts of readable
such
 as books,newspapers and magazines.
However
, a certain group of people think that, even though digitalisation is dominating, the conventional methods will still be persistent.I believe that there would not be a trace of the physical form of paper in any category of publishing. On one hand, the convenience of carrying and storing
media
 in digital form will
consequently
 contribute to the gradual disappearance of printed
media
.
Moreover
, a reduction in the production of paper conserves the planet. To illustrate, an old book can be retrieved at any age, if it is stored in the random access memory of a tablet rather than searching in a pile of books.
Therefore
 making the job easy.
On the other hand
, the conventional way of reading forms is preferred by the majority of elderly people as they think it is the best way to get legit information.
Additionally
, in the early ,ages the only trustworthy means of
media
 was suc printed
media
,
thus
 they continue to practice
this
 till now.
For example
, reading the newspaper in the morning is an inevitable routine which is widely followed by most elders with a cup of tea.
Therefore
, the physical means of
media
 are hard to fade away. After analysing both sides, in my point of view, the busy lifestyle compliments the portable method of carrying
media
 in humongous size is ideal for
this
 developed life
subsequently
 paving way for the extinction of the paper version.
To conclude
, in the future the usage of physical copies of
media
 like magazines and newspapers will be null because of the comprehensive availability of the better option which is digital
media
.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
