Many people nowadays spend a large part of their free time using a smartphone. What do you think are the reasons for this? Do you think this is a positive or negative development? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge and experience.

As developing of technology,

smartphones

are getting closer to our lives. More and more

people

spend a larger amount of

time

in their free

time

using these devices because of their convenience and useful features.

However

, I believe that

this

is a negative trend for human beings, the

time

people

spend on exercise or moving their bodies reduces and they are depending on their phones heavily.

Firstly

, the background of

this

boosting expansion of

smartphones

can be reasoned by their characteristics; countless information, ease to use, and multifunctions. The information in search platforms and social media have been updated every moment and they always offer us some entertainment to watch.

Moreover

, the usage of

smartphones

is based on free or cheaper than physical activities, which makes

people

have a low barrier

to begin

.

Thirdly

, it is possible to do shopping, watch films, communicate with friends and plan a holiday with the same device, they always have something to do with them.

Smartphones

have easier acceptance and useful facilities which can cover everything we want, And

this

is enough to attract us for using them.

Furthermore

, endless information makes

people

stick to the internet and it is difficult to manage their

time

.

However

, these are not only advantages but

also

disadvantaged which are lacking exercise and addiction to

smartphones

. Working out is one of the effective ways to have a healthy body, but

this

is prevented by

smartphones

,

people

do not need to go out to do something because they can do everything at home with their

smartphones

.

Also

, some just sit on the chair to play video games for more than 6 hours a day.

In addition

, one societal problem is coming up, a lot of

people

feel so anxious without

smartphones

. They bring everywhere, and they cannot control themselves. Some students consume their

time

by spending

time

with their phones, which causes sleeping and tiredness during classes. When I was a high school student, all of my

due to

However

, most of them could not stop that habit, they already relied on too much. The mental dependency on these devices is becoming a huge problem,
