ln the highly competitive era of today, marketers
such
 as restaurants and supermarkets have realized the marketing opportunity offered by
schools
 and so are giving money to
schools
. Even though the administrators of
schools
 are using that money to raise funds for
school
 activities,
this
 is definitely disadvantageous for
school
children
.
To begin
 with, adverts

 fast foods and their availability within
school
 premises would help to develop
children
's taste for
such
 foods.
This
 can increase problems like obesity, which in turn is the root cause of many other health issues among
children
. As it is,
children
 today have sedentary lifestyles, which makes it imperative that healthier food options should be made available to them. The welfare of students should be the top priority of
schools
 and they should not fall in the bait of these companies for monetary benefits.
Secondly
,
such
 commercial intrusions within the academic environment can promote consumerism.
For instance
, if
schools
 promote advertisements of any products like toys or computer games from supermarkets through educational materials, billboards or
school
 television,
children
 would think that they have the approval of teachers and
school
 authorities.
Consequently
, these vulnerable
children
 pester their parents to buy those products, which can upset the family budget.
This
 is a very vivid example of how
commercialization

 can promote materialism in
children
. Supporters of
such
 practices claim that the money
such
 companies give for promoting their products inside the campus, helps financially-strapped
schools
 to buy library books or improve sports facilities. They claim that
children
 benefit from the additional resources and facilities that
schools
 can afford
due to
such
 funding. What they fail to see is that commercial intrusions are already present in
children
's lives these days and there is no scope for more.
To sum up
, it is definitely a negative development to use

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
