writer's opinion on the topic. This can be done using one of the keywords we mentioned
earlier, such as "In my opinion" or "I believe.

sentences that explain and expand on their opinion. These sentences should provide

Social Media
In my opinion, social media has both positive and negative
effects on our lives. On the one hand, social media allows
us to connect with friends and family members who live
far away and share information and news. However, I
believe that social media can also be a source of stress,
particularly for young people who are constantly
comparing themselves to others online. Moreover, social
media can be addictive, and it can be difficult to
disconnect from it even when we know we should. In
conclusion, while I appreciate the benefits of social
media, I think that we need to use it positively in our
lives and avoid the negative effects it can have.
