III. Write about an invention or technology and its advantages and disadvantages.
You may base on the outline questions for you writing
Many years ago no one could ever imagine that such a thing as the Internet would
be invented. Nowadays, life without the Internet for the most people is unimaginable. In
my opinion every invention has its time, and the Internet is the greatest invention of our
time.
Firstly, the Internet provides an enormous amount of information Everyone can
find all types of information on millions of topics. Also, people are able to find
information on every subject they are interested in. However, this easy access to so
much information can sometimes be dangerous. For example, one primary disadvantage
is that children may get exposed to information that they aren't supposed to access such
as pornographic materials, violent movies. The internet has also encouraged fraudsters
who benefit from innocent users who are easily deceived to give their bank details and
send money to get fake products.
Secondly, people are using the internet for communication. Today, we can initiate
real-time communication with someone who is in another part of the world in my
personal experience I use all time Skype to communicate with my family and close
friends.
People can participate in social networks like "Facebook" , "Twitter", "Couch
surfing", etc. They can keep in touch with their friends in distant places, or make new
ones. Nevertheless, this way of communication can sometimes be inefficient. Face-to-
face conversation, at least in my opinion, is much better. Furthermore, a disvantage is
easy to waste a lot of time on the internet. We can start surfing, and then realize far
more time has passed than you realized. Internet and television together of added to the
more sedentary lifestyles of people. Moreover, the Internet include the access of
Page | 28
personal information such as our name and address by other people and clogging up of
unsolicited e-mails that serve no purpose and are unnecessary.
Last but not least, the invention of the Internet could not be even possible without
some earlier inventions and discoveries. First it was the discover of fire, then the
invention of the wheel. Later it was electricity, the telegraph and the computer. All this
led to the invention of the Internet.
It can be concluded that, there are many great inventions, every one of them
important for its time. The Internet, even with its flaws, is the most important invention
of our modern time.
