Sample Answers

1. What are the advantages and disadvantages of being famous? Well, clearly, being a celebrity or being famous has both bright and dark sides. There are a number of positive features but the one thing that really stands out is that being famous generally means being richer since fame brings a lot of fortune and opportunities. Those who are well-known can afford to buy luxurious items, live in beautiful mansions, and travel to different countries. A second plus point is that famous people have fans or followers who adore them and would do literally everything for their idols. However, I'm sure most people would agree that there are some negative aspects of being famous. I suppose the most noticeable drawback is that they have no privacy. No matter where they go, there are paparazzi and people watching, taking pictures and judging them. Moreover, being a celebrity can attract stalkers who might be dangerous.

2. What are the advantages and disadvantages of travelling by air? Hmm, it is clear that air travelling has its own pros and cons. There are a wide range of advantages but the most obvious one is that travelling by planes is the fastest way to get from one place to another, especially when involving long distances. Also, flying can be considered as the safest way to travel as the chance of boarding a flight that will be in a fatal accident is often rare. By contrast, it is undeniable that air travel has some limitations. I think the most evident one is that not everyone can afford to buy airplane tickets since they could be quite expensive especially during special occasions. Moreover, it's time-consuming and exhausting to go through airport security, and passengers will have to wait for hours if the flight is delayed.

3. What are the advantages and disadvantages of shopping online? It's true that online shopping has both positive and negative features. There are many benefits but the biggest perk would be that shopping online is more convenient. People can shop from home at any time of the day. Moreover, they can have access to a much wider variety of products with better prices. On the contrary, it is no doubt that online shopping has some shortcomings. I guess the most apparent one is that there is a larger risk of fraud when people shop online. People should be careful when providing personal information and avoid transferring money to unknown sources. Furthermore, it is hard to know exactly what we are getting from those online websites. Since we cannot touch or determine what kind of texture, fabric or quality of the products, they can end up becoming a waste of money if we couldn't return them.

4. What are the advantages and disadvantages of eating out in a restaurant?

Well, I suppose that eating in restaurants can bring both benefits and drawbacks. There are a variety of merits but the most visible one is that people can save time and energy since they don't have to cook and clean up the kitchen after eating anymore. Besides, a restaurant can be a great place to focus on communication and get closer with their family and friends especially in special occasions. However, eating out also comes with a myriad of problems and the biggest one is that it can be less hygienic and unhealthy since diners do not know exactly where the food comes from. Also, eating in restaurants can be quite pricey, and it costs much more than buying ingredients and making meals at home.
