Today,some
children
 spend too many hours in their daily life using
smartphones
.From my perspective,I think it is a positive development in their childhood. On the one hand,with the development of technology,mobile phones become more intelligent to solve problems in everyday life.
Thus
,
children
 who
use
smartphones
 could tackle some questions which they have never seen before.So it is a convenient way to look for some information on the Internet.
For example
,when some
children
 do their homework or assignments,they encounter a difficult problem that teachers do not know how to overcome,they could
use
 a smartphone to refer to relevant information on Baidu or Google.It is quite a steady way to learn different knowledge and overcome trouble in their free
time
.Maybe someone thinks it will waste too much
time
 to look for information through a smartphone.But I think it is worth spending some
time
 to achieve knowledge.So using smartphone have positive developments in daily life.
On the other hand
,
smartphones
 have the same ability to calculate as computers but are smaller than them.
Therefore
,
children
 can
use
 phones to relax in their free
time
.Because playing games or connecting with friends on mobile phones can make
children
 funny and enjoy themselves after a busy
time
.
For instance
,after class,
children
 can play digitally with their friends or make phone calls to their families.
This
 function is not only convenient for their lives but
also
 enhances friendship with different friends.So using
smartphones
 has quite a positive influence on their lives. In conclusion,it is useful for
children
 to
use
smartphones
 every day,not only can rich their leisure
time
 but
also
 reinforce their knowledge without teachers and classes.

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
