In some countries, online shopping is replacing shopping in stores. Do you think it is a positive or negative development?

There is no denying the fact that online shopping is more popular these days.
while
it is a commonly held belief that people shop online rather than going to the store, there is
also
an argument that opposes it. In my opinion, I consider that a negative trend.
To begin
with, online shopping sometimes takes time to get delivered to you.
In other words
, not all the stores in your city and because of that the ability to order from the Internet can be easier but that takes days and weeks sometimes.
In addition
, you cannot be sure if the package will arrive to you safely without damage.
For instance
, my brother ordered the iPhone 15 pro
last
week but unfortunately came broken. another point to consider is that

the material in some products is crucial to check. It is
also
possible to say that cotton is different from jeans and even the cotton sometimes you ought to touch it.
For example
, the only reason that I returned my all clothes before was because I expected the material to be different from what I expected. In conclusion, despite people having different views, I believe that online shopping has many negative things and I do not think we are ready for it, we must solve the delivery issues and make new technology to show the material
also
we have to develop the shopping system. As I see, we have a long time to improve shopping online.

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
