Although more and more people read news on the internet, newspaper will remain the most important source of news. Do you agree or disagree?

the form of providing newspapers



It is sometimes argued that newspaper is set to the most crucial source of news in spite of the popularity of the digital devices. In my opinion, online news is favored over print newspapers in terms of some following reasons.

The internet, needless to say, brings people lots of marvelous benefits. Firstly, it provides up-to-the-minute news, which helps people keep up to date the latest news such as politics, economics, society, ect. Secondly, people can easily hunt for the things they concern through smart phones, laptops or tablets. There are the max amount of information in the smallest time possible. People, therefore, can read online news anytime and anywhere thanks to the widespread accessibility of the Internet.

By contrast, print newspapers have clear inconveniences which affect their popularity. Unlike available online news, newspaper get paid to read. People will have to spend money on buying newspapers if they want to read news as a result. Moreover, people certainly find it difficult to search for a huge number of information related to the news they concern on a newspaper page. It's easier, meanwhile, to hunt for information in a matter of seconds on the Internet.

To sum up, I consider that online editions are changing our habits in keeping up to date news happening around us instead of print newspaper in the fast-paced world.

Phung, read the prompt instruction sentence. You were asked to agree or disagree. Therefore, your last sentence in the opening paraphrase should indicate a response to the question. The answer in this instance is "I disagree with the given statement." When you respond to the question being asked. Do so in a direct manner that refers to the keywords provided in the question as your response. This will show that you understood the question and that your essay will be discussing the correct topic within your opinion essay. At them moment, the current response that you gave shows a prompt deviation. That means, you did understand the question being asked so your response alters the prompt discussion you were provided with. Such a lack of understanding will lower your TA score since you have shown an inability to grasp the meaning of English instructions.

Your discussion is totally out of place because this is not a comparison discussion essay. This is a direct personal opinion discussion of only one side, as indicated by the choice of "agree or disagree". By discussion both sides and then offering a personal opinion as part of the concluding statement, you have totally failed to follow all of the requirements and guidelines of the IELTS Task 2 essay writing test.

I am not confident that you will get a passing score with this test. You need to understand that there is a specific way of discussing the Task 2 questions, most of which you can find samples of within this forum. I strongly recommend that you read the samples and the advice given in those threads before you write your own essay. That way you will avoid making discussion mistakes as you did on this essay task.
