To what extent do you agree that the internet is making it easier for people to communicate with one another?In today?s world_due to the advancement of technology new inventions are coming into existence. It is true that Necessity is a mother of invention._Internet is just like a wonder box, which contains every type of information.Besidesit has also provedasa very important tool to connect people with one another.In todays modernized era nobody has sufficient time to write letters to their loved ones.Moreoverit also takes longer to send or receive any information. Butthe Internet is the easiest way to send messages to our loved ones. Communication can be either in the form of e-mail or through text messages sent viainternetto mobile phones. We can send and receive messages straightway.In other handtodays young generation mostly prefers to do chatting through the Internet. During such chatting we can write messages and get replies straight away.Moreovervoice chatting isgoing to be very popular day-by-day.As it is a realitythe advantages and disadvantages resemble two sides of one coin,which usually runs parallel. So like other things internetalsohavesome downsides,likecausing people health problemsfor example,poor eye-sight, back ache or migraines. Todays teenagers usually prefer to spend their time on the internet rather thanto participatingin other physical activities, which causing them to have a weaker physical health.To conclude, I would like to say that the Internet is one of the most modernized and most successful tools, not only forcommunication, even to get most relevant informationregarding every field in a very short period of time.This is a great essay, well done! Remember, the Internet is a proper noun, currently, there is only one. Pay attention to your punctuation many commas are missing after linking words. Otherwise, the essay is well argued and set out.With all the problems in the world today, spending money on space exploration is a complete waste. The money could be better spent on other causes.Nations after nations, every day, every year, celebrates its achievements in space exploration. However, it is now the time to question how meaningful these blasts are. This essay aims to explain why it is questionable.First, until all urgent and important matters of the globe have been solved, moneybumpedon space exploration is meaningless. Itis not a common senseat all to invest millions of dollars researching and producing foods for astronauts (for space exploration purpose), while every day thousands of people are starving. Furthermore, the discovery of outer space only serves a minor group of people if the majorityare even notwell-educated.Those in rural areas or third-world nationsdo no even know how to prevent common threatening diseases such as AIDS and lung cancer.Then, some may argue that the purpose of space explorationareto discover new lands, new energy resources or to deter potential threat toglobe. Nevertheless, is it effective to do so while other alternatives are available?Lands on earth are noyet effectively used. New energy resources (e.g. solar and nuclear energy) have not yet been widely-used. Threats of plagues have not yet been deterred. All of these tasks that havent been tackled yet require money. That is why costly space discovery programs are a waste of resources.In a nutshell, people should only invest in space exploration provided that urgent and important matters mentioned earlier in this essay have been solved. Also, purposes of space exploration campaigns should be studied carefully and other alternatives should be considered before the money is wasted.As computers are being used more and more in education, there will be soon no role for teachers in the classroom.There is no doubt that education and the learning process has changed since the introduction of computers: The search for information has become easier and amusing, and connectivity has expedited the data availability. Thoughexpertssystems have made computers more intelligent, they have not yet become a substitute of the human interaction in the learning process. In my opinion what can be expected is a change of the teachers role, but not their disappearance from the classroom.Nobody can argue that the acquisition of knowledge is more fun and easier with computers. The mere activity of touching and exploring this device constitutes an enjoyable task for a child. This, accompanied by the relaxing attitude and software interactivity, usually contributes to a better grasping of new knowledge. At a higher educational level the availability of digital books, simulators and other academic materials provide the student with an ever accessible source of information, that otherwise would not be at hand.But, besides the increasing complexity and behavior of intelligent software, which is usually embedded in the academic digital material, the need for human interaction in the learning process will always be present, at least in the foreseeable future. There is the necessity for a human being to be able to determine what thespecificsneeds of each individual are. The expertise of a teacher in how to explain and adapt complex concepts to different individuals can hardly be mimicked by a computer, no matter how sophisticated its software is.As computers are becoming a common tool for teaching, teachers should be more aware of their role as guides in the acquisition of knowledge rather than transmitters of facts. They have to be open minded to the changes that are takingplaces, keep updated and serve as problem solvers in the learning process, thus allowing students to discover thefactfor themselves.To summarize, in my personal view, teachers play and will continue to play an important role in the classroom, especially at the primary level. No matter how complex computers become, there will be no replacement for the human interaction, but in theway haw thisinteraction takes place.This is an excellent essay! Are you a native English speaker? Well done. The only problem is that this essay is too long, 365 words instead of 250-265 maximum.Below is a map of the city of Brandfield.

This expenditure is also the greatest one in the average income group, but the amount of money spent is only about 33 pence a week,muchless than that in the high-income group. As for the low-income group, the largest expenditure is on fish and chips, about 18 pence a week.The line graph compares the trends of the amount of threetypeof fast food consumed between 1970 and 1990.
