the technology and a gap between rich and poor

Hello,

Some believe that modern technology is increasing the gap between rich and poor people, while others disagree. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

I do not understand what does this essay exactly mean and what should I write about . Please help me.

Hi @Barwary, From what I understand, this topic requires you to discuss 2 things and give your own opinion (of which opinion are you in? or you are in neutral opinion?// in other word, you agree the disparity between the R and the P is increasing due to mdern tech or not?)

1/ Why some people agree that modern technology makes the gap between the rich and the poor wider
2/ Why some others disagree with that idea

Hamid, you are supposed to discuss each point of view as a separate topic in the stand alone body paragraphs. So the format is:

1. Why people agree with the idea provided. Use public opinion to explain this aspect and close it with an example to drive your point home.

2. Why people disagree with the idea. Use the public non-support reasons and again, provide an example to further explain it.

3. Discuss your personal opinion regarding the topic. Choose to either support or not support the main topic. You may only use one opinion for this and explain it from a personal point of view based on personal experience.
