In some developed nations, online shopping is replacing physical shopping in stores. I consider it as a positive and a negative development as it comes with various advantages as well as with some disadvantages.

Firstly, online shopping has given people, a convenient facility of shopping using the internet on the e-commerce websites and we can access numerous clothes and its types within a single click which is a tremendous opportunity to purchase things. With the boom of internet and its ease of access to the people over the years has made online shopping even more comfortable to public. People got accustomed to buy things online due to some mind-blowing advantages such as, we don't need any type of travelling to various shops across the streets, we can order things right from our home, and the product will be delivered at our door step with the facility to exchange the product if the customer is not satisfied with the product delivered.

Secondly, online shopping comes with some negative points as well which are to be considered when buying things online. The most significant negative point is that we cannot physically see and try the products before purchasing them, amidst other points like we have dangerous fake e-commerce sites on the web which try to manipulate us in the name of popular online store sites and these sites may pose a threat to our personal data and money.

To conclude, online shopping is defintely is a positive impact on our lives but we should be careful while purchasing products online and people are encouraged to buy things online only on the trusted e-commerce websites.

Hello guys. Please review my essay and I'd love to hear some feedback from your side!

The bar chart gives information about the amount of US dollars earn by people working in language-related sectors in Mexico, Dubai, Paris, Munich and Toronto every year.

Overall, linguistic professionals working in Toronto earn the highest income annually, whereas interpreters, translators and language teachers in Mexico are among the lowest-paid occupations in comparison to other nations.

First of all, it can be clearly seen that interpreter in Toronto, as well as in Munich, Paris and Dubai, is the highest-paid job across the nation. Interpreter in Toronto receive annual income of 80000 US dollars while working as a translator and language teacher are not as lucrative, getting paid by only a total of 65000 US dollars throughout the year. On the contrary, people getting a job in linguistic field in Mexico will be quite hard to sustain their daily expenditure, for their annual earning from whichever occupation barely reach 20000 US dollars, lesser than one third of the average income of linguistic professionals in Dubai.

Remarkably, translators in Paris, Munich and Toronto are being paid the same amount of salary annually, receiving approximately 65000 US dollars for their contributions throughout the year. Moreover, total amount of 60000 US dollars are rewarded to language teachers in Dubai as well as Munich before the beginning of new year.

Hello! I'd like to receive your scores.
Due to a rapid developmant of technology in some states, oflline shopping is replaced with making purchases online. This change is a controversial topic among different people.
On the one hand, shopping online is much more faster and convenient. First of all, simple scrolling of the store's site take less energy and helps a person choose clothes, food and so on with bigger comfort. Fast delivery is also an advantage of this type of buying things. Online shops have wider range of things and some of them cannot be presented offline in the particular city or town. Secondly, sites of shops usually provide various discounts and special offers, which are not accessible in offline stores. Such approaches for customers make them get more satisfaction from spending money.
On the other hand, online shopping also has some disadvantages. It is worth mentioning that some shops which provide online purchases can ask for extra money for delivery, especially if the distance between stock and buyer's house is long. People usually get upset whenpaying more than they expected. Moreover, a great disadvantage of online shopping for me is that I cannot try some clothes and understand whether they fit me or not. I am also limited in touching products or items which I plan to buy, so their quality is going to be a secret for me. It is more connected with groceries because such purchases cannot be returned to a shop even if their appearance and condition are extremely bad.
In conclusion I would like to say that replacement of usual stores with online shopping has both pros and cons. I personnaly think that this process is not negative, because as we live in information era, some technological changes will happen and develop out of the people's control. I believe countries and their population should accept such a change and try to adapt online shopping systems.
