It is my example answer for Writing Task 2 on Cambridge 8 IELTS book.
"Nowadays the way many people interact with each other has changed because of technology.
In what ways has technology affected the types of relationships people make?
Has this become a positive or negative development?"
My example answer:
It is widely accepted that technology has a direct impact on modern life. Although it has changed positively the ways of connections between people, I believe there are some drawbacks in using of some technological innovations.
In fact, it is impossible to think of our daily life without mobile phones or internet. If people connected each others with mails, pigeon-post or herald in the remote past, nowadays they use electron mails or fax machines for same purpose. Teachers send reports to parents about their children's activities at school. In addition, video messaging is becoming common for business meetings.
There are some reasons why I think that technoogy affected us favourably. The main reason is that it gives us instant access to connect people without depending on distances. I want to give example from my own experience. When I was studying abroad, sometimes I felt homesick. Then I talked with my family on the Internet by using Video Calls programme, so it gave me a feeling of happiness. Another reson is that people can keep in touch with relatives by email or some messenger services and they can also share their pictures or video messages on social websites with their friends.
In my opinion, technology has some negative effects us. Firstly, it builts a barrier for people's relationships between in their real life and social life. Therefore, they tend to limit keep in touch by mobile phones or online. Secondly, our communicative habitats are changed by technology. For instance, before people discussed about something by meeting at public places like restaurants, cafes, book clubs, but now there are lots of forum websites and they usually debate on the Internet.
In conclusion, I support that technology makes easier our relationship with others in spite of some negative fedbacks.
