Using detailed descriptions of the characters and settings in the story is one approach to hold the reader’s interest.

“To put it in a nutshell, TV brings more harm than benefit. Tv is a little magic box with the help of which we watch TV series and movies, follow the news, listen to music and do many other things. Everyone should be careful with the amount of time they watch TV and which programs to watch. Otherwise, watching too much TV can have disastrous effects on our health, psychology and social lives. We can even put a warning on TVs saying: “Watch at your own risk”.

TV is beneficial for children.

You should explain and clarify your point with specific examples instead of writing about hasty
generalisations. If you think that technology has affected communication badly, you should explain
and clarify this by saying, for example, “people refer to spend time alone on the Internet instead
of having a conversation with family or friends”. You should also make your point more interesting
with examples. For instance, if you write an essay about the legalisation of euthanasia, you could give an example from a real person who has no hope for recovery after an unfortunate accident. Or if you write that the sale of cigarettes should be banned, you should give more persuasive examples referring to abnormally high heartbeats, lower lung capacity and more intense asthma instead of explaining from a personal point.

"People are always searching for the things that enable them to be the happiest person in the world. For example, many people work very hard to improve their employment because they want to find a better job to make themselves happy. Other people search for happiness by purchasing things they want. It is not bad to search for happiness, but many people do not understand that lasting happiness does not depend on having certain things. It does not depend on the circumstances of a person’s life.
