this

 trend, I believe that there are outweighed by the disadvantages On the one hand, there are a number of major benefits when we
use

 social
media

 for a lot of purposes, especially contacting each other.
Firstly

, Social
media

 is the best tool that keeps in touch without limiting geography or time.
For example
Linking Words
,
although

 you away from me for a thousand miles, I still contact you. The only thing you just only need is a phone with available networking.
Secondly

 it anywhere we want, and we don’t have to go out. It helps to decrease using vehicles, and mitigate congestion and air pollution.
Finally
Linking Words
, we can save a lot of money and time, because we don’t have to pay for beverages as we meet someone outside.
On the other hand
Linking Words
, I believe that the drawbacks are more significant than

 advantages. The first drawback is the number of obese

 is increasingly significant. I agree that more
people

 are so addicted to social

 that they do not really care enough about their health. They are becoming lazy and less active. Another negative effect is more
people

 in society become afraid of strangers when they have to expose other

 outside. They are becoming introverted and phones which they cannot live without is being their best friend.
Therefore
Linking Words
, depression is more popular nowadays. In conclusion, I would argue that social

 brings more drawbacks than benefits.

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
