Hi Annie, I enjoyed reading your essay. Your structure is good, but some of your sentences are hard to understand or sound quite awkward.

Topic: What discovery is important to people? Based on these criteria, I would rate your essay as a 3 1/2 out of 5.
Every day, thousands of new discoveries come into existence,{inventions come into existence, discoveries always existed} contributing enormously to the life of mankind. Among them, the Internet is one of the most crucial ones, which is undeniably beneficial. My writing will critically present the main advantages of it. {try to include a summary of the advantages in your thesis statement} First of all, knowledge enrichment is what I put in my priority. {this sentence sounds awkward} It is obvious that the Internet creates chances for people [to] acquire a huge amount of information. They are able to obtain many kinds of information such as education[al] materials and news from many sources just by going to any searching website{"search engine" is the common term} including[such as] Google. It is not exaggerated[an exaggeration] to say that a computer with Internet access is worth more than hundreds of libraries since almost all kinds of books are published, scanned or retyped on the Internet. Therefore, people are bound to broaden their knowledge vastly. More importantly, the Internet also brings people the opportunity to exchange their understanding{"knowledge" would be better here} and perspectives. Every one{one word} is bound[able] to share his opinions to the world easily by posting it on a personal website or blog. There is [a] likelihood for readers to get the new view from the poster and for the poster to review his concepts from their contributive [contributory] comments. It leads to deeper apprehensions[comprehension] of things. With no doubt, the Internet absolutely elevates the cognition of human[ity]. Second of all,{only say "last of all"} society attachment ranks an equal place in the essence.{this sentence does not make sense to me} It is apparent that the Internet encourages the maintenance of communication of people immensely. {this sentence sounds awkward} Members of family[Family members] and friends who are away from each other stand[get] a golden chance to keep in touch regularly. It is possible for them to chat, email, and update others’ information daily through many social networking sites consisting[including] Facebook, Twitter, and more. Hence, their relationships have a tendency{have a tendency sounds unnatural in this context} to be remarkably improved. More notably, not only maintain[ing] the existing ties of people, the Internet also gives rise to the new connection[s ]. A person from a specific country has the ability to make friends with people from all over the world when entering any online forum or chat room. It promotes the cultural exchange progress as well as reduces the loneliness of people. As a result, the world certainly becomes more united. Without any[a] doubt, people are getting closer to others with the help of Internet. Last but not least, [the] economic boost holds no less importance. It is well noted that the Internet conspicuously supports the economy in various ways. Online trading is convenient and favored by both entrepreneurs and customers. Digital marketing is more efficient and attracting more attention than traditional methods. International business contracts are achieved more easily when the needed information is officially posted on the companies’ website. Beyond any doubt, many enterprises from [all] over the world are flourishing thanks to the Internet. In conclusion, knowledge enrichment, society attachment and [an] economic boost are the convincing reasons for [the importance of] the Internet. I highly recommend that people should carefully take my writing into great consideration to make an appropriate decision on taking advantages of it. {this sentence seems a little weird to me}
