Ielts Essay Some believe that modern technology is increasing the gap 


Advancements in technology may have helped improve the quality of life to a great extent; this, however,  has also led to an unnecessary squabble about these advancements predisposing social disparities. How far this notion is true, is an issue worth a deep debate.   

Technology, as some fear, has exacerbated disparities between the haves and have-nots, since the ones, who can afford exploits of innovations, are leading a lavish life fuelled by all possible comforts. They have hi-tech equipment at their service: gadgets and facilities that only money can buy. This leaves ones with scanty resources at a disadvantage: they can do no more but fascinate about such lifestyles.

On the contrary, there is a sizeable group that ridicules the thought of technology predisposing escalation of imbalances in the society. As per them, technology has instead helped bridge gaps between people by bringing education at the doorstep of everyone, regardless socio-economic backgrounds. Latest introductions have helped  create venues for people from a cross-section of society, to get better education without shelling out too much money which is helping people improve their chances of getting better incomes in not too distant future.  

Moreover, the recent advancements in various fields  have brought about a great difference in the way food is produced today – what used to be a novelty of rich and a luxury for the poor has become easily available to all  – thus mitigating the social differences; nobody is dying of hunger today. Moreover, better methods of treating ailments have made it easier for even the impoverished to access affordable medical facilities today.

Hence, I personally feel, technology has helped evaporate imbalances between demographies belonging to diverse economic strata, and those deriding technological development, and terming it  as a cause of social polarization, are anti-development lobbyists.

The age of Information Technology has taken a lot of people by surprise. While it has become a way of life for some, others know very little about it and may be unlikely to learn. Eventually we will have a polarized society and this will lead to serious social problems. To what extent do you agree with this statement? - III

The age of Information Technology has taken a lot of people by surprise
Ielts Essay - ITtechnology

The way the IT is spreading its wings across, many have started fearing outcomes of this rapid proliferation; many fear that this may lead to creation and widening of fault lines between groups of those who are fast adapting to this innovation, and those who are critical though there are some who find this idea to be ridiculous   

The fears of the wedge growing between the ones who know and those who do not have anything to do with information technology seems to be quite real. This may, as feared, lead to friction among workers at work places where each group may find itself guarding its position jealously – considering their way of working to be more useful, in order to sustain its superiority over their rivals by impeding work of each other.

However, there is surely a lobby that harbors a more realistic view on this issue and rules out any kind of social discord among the people. Today, when many are adopting use of information technology in every sphere of their personal lives, others, nears and dears, are also  getting influenced since having ability to use this innovation is considered to be a mark of sophisticated lifestyle and intelligence. This is inspiring other too to pick up skills of using IT based facilities.

Moreover, the chances of social conflicts due to being and not being IT-literate are remote. Even in work places, the ones who resent use of this new technology are due to retire in near future, and the companies now are employing only those who posses IT skills. It has, thus become imperative for all aspirants to become tech savvy.

Hence, I completely disagree with the notion of social discord occurring due having and not having knowhow of using information technology.

Ielts Essay - Online University Course 
Ever since certain varsities started offering courses online, they have been in the eye of storm: many are quite enthusiastic about this, they consider it to be quite favorable, while there are others who see an adverse impact of this.

Rendering online courses to knowledge seekers is undoubtedly laden with numerous positives: more and more students can now take up courses offered at universities – there is no restriction on number of seats offered in any typical course unlike in the past when many had to forego the idea of seeking admissions in universities which could only offer limited places in study programs due to space and resource constraint. 

Furthermore, an increasing number of learners formerly dissuaded from the idea of joining higher education, due to distances and costs involved, can now study in a varsity. Pursuing academics is not difficult now, as students can remain in their home towns, where they enjoy emotional and moral support of their friends and families, and study from their comfort zones.  Moreover, pursuing online academic courses also help make things affordable; pursuing a study on internet sans costs involved on travelling, accommodation and food in an alien environment.

However, a cynical view suggests that everything is not rosy with the online courses: it is leading to deterioration in the quality of skills being generated. Students find it hard to bridge the gaps in their knowledge since they do not enjoy a real time interaction with their tutors; thus preventing them from seeking clarifications on their weak areas. These gaps tend to widen with every passing day; thus affecting capabilities of learners.

In a nutshell, I consider university internet courses to be an unfavorable trend that will eventually have an amplified effect on working abilities of future generations.

Nowadays the most important task is the environmental protection of our planet for future generations
Ielts Essay - Saving Environment For Future 
Environment has become a major cause of worry for the politicians and environmentalists alike, as some say conserving it for the future generations is of critical importance. There are others who are quite cynical about this concern, and feel that this is simply a misleading claim and consider it to be an absurd idea.

Saving surroundings from further deterioration, and keeping them clean, and passing them to the next generation is the responsibility of the current generation. This narrative is based on the belief that the people living in the contemporary times have borrowed  the resources from their children; and hence it is necessary to take care of what they have loaned from the inhabitants who would use it in the time to come – perhaps a century later from now.

Furthermore, preserving nature for those who would populate this planet in times to come, is surely a task to be handled now. The way the environment, in all its spheres, is being destroyed, cleaning and bringing it back to a state  which could be termed as fairly favorable for living conditions, is surely going to be an uphill task later since it is feared that things might become insurmountable, and salvation may be a far cry.

However, there is a lobby that sees selfish motives behind this – the most prominent view that surfaces is that the worries being expressed are overstated, and  just a pretext to siphon off public money. Every generation, as per them, has had its set of challenges, and it is only them who have found out the way to negotiate those difficulties.  

In a nutshell, I am of the view that ensuring a favorable environment for the upcoming generation is of critical importance at present.

society should be blamed for any anti-social activities
Ielts Essay - Society and blame for anti-social activities
Increasing lawlessness has intrigued social theorists and criminologists; and they seem to be scrambling for finding causes for such a trend; many even blame the social set-up for such an upward trend in crime though there are some  contrasting views on this issue. 

A school of thought feel that the current state of turmoil the human society is experiencing is rooted in the consumerism. Every individual craves for almost every comfort and luxury, but many can hardly afford everything due to insufficiency of resources. This prompts criminal behavior: people try to attain their objects of desire through unethical means which is leading spurt in illegal activities.

It is firmly believed by many, and in fact it has also been proven by many experts that society is to blame for an increase in such a deviant behavior. The class struggle and the attitudes of various social groups towards each other are the primary causes for a rise in instances of criminality. Aggressive responses to action of and constant apathy towards each other, the social groups, is often a reason for sulking emotions and sentiments which incite people to seek revenge; thus resulting in unlawful behavior.

However, another lobby of social theorists hold politicians and elite class responsible for the current chaos in the society. These people, in order to perpetuate their influence over the commoners, patronize and protect anti-social elements. The community and people are in such a case are on the receiving end who have to bear the brunt of the malpractices encouraged by such highly placed class of the rulers and the rich. 

In a nutshell, I personally feel that although social-order is surely responsible for the current rise in illegal activities, there are other factors too that are increasing instances of illegal activities.

Some people think that hobbies should be linked with technology, while others believe that it is not necessary for hobbies to be involved with technology. Discuss, what is your opinion? Give reasons for your answer and include relevant examples from your experience.
 
Ielts Essay - Hobbies and Technology 
With technology influencing almost every walk of life, some have started suggested extending the involvement of this in even the past-time activities though there are some who hold contrasting views. Even I support the latter opinion: some past-times need not be dependent on technology. 

The narrative of involvement modern techniques in free time activities rests on a commonly held belief: use of modern innovation of practicing one's past-times can help save time, money and efforts. It has become extremely easy to make resources of past-times available at one's disposal: one does not need to travel to distant locations for collecting certain materials, as in case of amateur collectors of various items; and one does not also need to wait for the things to be made available at a certain place, like ones going shopping as a part of leisure time.

Moreover, today, recent forays into the realm of recreation and free time activities have come in as a respite for most of those who can seldom spare time for anything except their work: now such enthusiasts, carrying some kind of hobby, need not deprive themselves of this pleasure since they can practice their past-times in parts as per their convenience.

Nevertheless, there are those who deride the inclusion of modern means into the pastimes: they feel that this new development is dampening the exploratory skills of humans, a natural instinct. Everything becomes so tad easy and predictable, when people use modern methods, that excitement tends to fade away. For instance, use of modern rock climbing techniques and tools has killed the very spirit of adventure what  this activity was known for.   

Henceforth, influence of modern means and tools in the sphere of pastimes is undesirable, as it would mean adding just another routine to mundane.
