TOEFL essay topic:
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement ? Face to face communication is better than other types of communication such as letters , email or telephone calls . Use specific reasons and details to support your answer
TOEFL Essay
Nowadays , there are a lot of communication means in the modern world such as telephone , mail , or electronic mail, faxes . Some people argue that using letter , or modern types of communication help them adapt with this busy world . However, in my opinion , face to face communication has noticeable features for which no other means could substitute First of all , face to face communication afford people to understand what attendants would like to say deeply , thoroughly . They can recognize what the partner want to convey by observing body languages , the attitudes, manners . For instance , last year , I heard my brother mentioned that he quit the current job and got another accompany with happy looking so I knew that he was happy to do that . On the other hand , If he had mailed me , I would haven’t understood his mood .
Secondly , we could get outcomes much more effectively . In such types of communication , we could revise the content in the talking process to adapt with the appearance of attendants . For example , when we persuade someone to do something , we can change the way to approach if we observe that he seem to disapprove what we say
Last but not least , the feelings that face to face communication bring to us cannot substitute by other means of communications , such as the feeling of joy when we receive happy news . These feelings can only be carried by the direct communication
All in all , In this modern world , the advanced technology has been bringing closer real dialogues, but these never do these alternatives bring the true feelings , the effectiveness , the clear interpersonal understanding as face to face communication do

Hello Everybody, please, Can Enybody check my topic**??? Nowadays, the communication is main thing in our life. Without meeting people, communication with them, we can't exist. Every day we need to contact with people in any way. In this essay I will name some of advantages and disadvantages of each approach and will argue in favor of communication such as letters, e-mail or telephone.
On the one hand, when the people meet face-to-face, their communication will assume a special character. They have more possibility to meet, see and understand these people, whereas they can't do it , if it is by telephone, etc. Also, during the job where face-to-face communication is principal item of communication to gain more the high result in the business aspect.
On the other hand, time is also the major cause of our life. And it is not enough on other some things in our life. That why the people adapt to fast communication such as e-mail, telephone and etc. At times the people after long difficult working day, they simple can't communicate with somebody face-to-face, and that why that choose the more comfortable variant such as e-mail, letters. Also if the some people , which live wide asunder, this way is fast and flexible communication between them. |
