Topic 8: It is suggested that everyone should have a car, a television and a fridge Do disadvantages of this development of society outweigh advantages? It is true that almost everyone wants a car, a TV and a fridge for a better life Over a long period of time, I think that those benefits cannot be outweigh by the disadvantages it brings On the one hand, there are several benefits of having a private car, TV and fridge First of all, people who need to travel everyday, especially those who live far away from workplace, can take the initiative in traveling thanks to their personal vehicle Secondly, having a TV may be a perfect choice of entertainment and looking for information because it provides a lot of channels, such as VTV or HTV, and some TV can even access to the internet Finally, when in possession of a fridge, there's no need to worry about storing and protecting food from going rancid On the other hand, this development of society also cause many disadvantages The worst problem is the environmental pollution which is caused by the exhaust and toxic fumes of private vehicle Because of it, the air quality is being degraded and can cause lots of severe diseases to people Moreover, it is a fact that refrigerator releases CFC which can lead to the depletion of ozone layer Using fridge and TV also makes pressure on electricity supply in the world In conclusion, I believe that in long term views, there isn’t too much harm if everyone have a car, a television and a fridge, but we need to be carefull not to overuse them
