Please check the grammar, vocabulary for me and all comments are welcomed.
Topic 11: Nowadays, food has become easier to prepare. Has this change improved the way people live? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
As the world has been changing more and more rapidly with the development of the new technology, the process of food production has become simpler. This HAS ALSO CHANGED the way people live.
In modern society, people have a large amount of work to do; and even some of them have become workaholics. This STEMS FROM the fact that we always want to save as much time as we can to complete our work or to relax. The result is THAT people tend to eat fast food instead of spending a period of time enjoying their own PREPARED mealS.
For example, in many offices, it is obvious that some love-working officers often bring sandwiches for lunch so that they can spend the lunch-BREAK sleepING or finishING their work.
Fast food has become more popular WITH people all over the world, especially the young.
The number of the companIES whO SPECIALISE IN fast food production are increasing rapidly with some famous names, SUCH as McDonaldS, KFC, Lotteria,… and their products are sold worldwide.
Fast food is part of the young culture, BECAUSE they can get it ALMOST everywhere. In most school canteens, fast food is suggested to be the most prevalent, AND although MOST PARENTS do not want their children eatING such kindS of food, they cannot prevent them from eating them because fast food is too ubiquitous. When these youngsters become adults, they THEMSELVES will have the habit of eating so much fast food, AND AS time goes by, these HABITS will change the way we live.
To A CERTAIN DEGREE, these changes have A bad effects on our liveS. We seem to live more hastily, and not TO have enough time to enjoy OUR LIVES. We need to avoid beCOMING dependent on fast food.
BUT while there are still people who love cooking with a simple process, supported by modern machines, and who can spend hours PREPARING a meal, THEN we can believe that the easy preparation of food will not change the whole world.

| Do you have any comments to my grammar so that I can improve it? I always find it difficult to identify my grammar errors myself while grammar plays an important role in an essay and if I have too much errors, I will lose so many scores. |
