''FOR AND AGAINST'' ESSAY

``Advantages and disadvantages of fast food´´

Many people believe that eating fast food is dangerous for our health because it contains higher amounts of salt, fats and calories. Nevertheless, fast food restaurants are usually crowded. So, there are both advantages and disadvantages to this idea.

On the one hand, fast food saves time and money. Fast food restaurants offer us an efficient service with low prices. It’s quick, and an easy way to eat something fast. In addition to this, in some places, you can find menus that are not unhealthy, like salad or fruit, for example, in Burger King.

On the other hand, fast food has a negative and clear effect on our health. There are people who eat in excess this kind of food. In fact, over 25 percent of Americans consume fast food every day. One result of this is that the risk factor of heart diseases and diabetes increases, because of cholesterol. Moreover, fast food puts on weight quickly and it doesn’t help you to get in shape.

Personally, I think that fast food is really bad and we should avoid going to restaurants which sell this type of meals. Healthy food has only benefits and it is always much better.

OPINION ESSAY

ONLINE SHOPPING IS BETTER THAN HIGH STREET SHOPPING

Some people disapprove online shopping because they do not know to use the websites or the online stores. However, I disagree with this: buying things on the Internet is becoming one of the most popular ways to go shopping around the world. Nowadays, everybody has bought something by a computer or smartphone.

In my opinion, online shopping is better and more comfortable than high street shopping. For example, you can go shopping without stand up from the armchair. In addition to this, this type of shopping is less stressful because you can avoid the crowds which could have the high streets.

Moreover, I personally think that the prices are cheaper online and it is faster to search the things you want. For example, you need a green t-shirt, so you will find it in less time if you look for it online. As a result of this, the purchases are increased and the stores could get more benefices.

To conclude, I believe that the best way to shop is online, especially if you want to buy something fast and you can stay comfortable and relaxed. Keep up to date with shopping and discover new facilities for your convenience!
