In conclusion, getting married has, to my mind, more advantages than dis­advantages. After all, what can be more fulfilling than a steady relation­ship with the person you love that lasts for the rest of your life?
To sum up, camping holidays do have advantages, the main one being that they are far cheaper than other holidays. In my opinion, however, there is too much hard work involved for them to ever feel like a real holiday.
To conclude, by looking after ani­mals and helping them to breed, zoos play an important part in pro­tecting many species from becom­ing extinct. Therefore, the negative aspects of keeping animals in cap­tivity are balanced out by the posi­tive ones.
All in all, computers have both advantages and disadvantages. They may have replaced humans in many jobs, but they have also made our lives considerably easier, and it is now difficult to imagine life without them.
On the whole, while most people go on holiday to rest, this is one thing you are unlikely to do on an adven­ture holiday. In my opinion, this dis­advantage outweighs all the advan­tages associated with this kind of holiday.
Taking everything into account, there are both advantages and dis­advantages in keeping pets. In the end it is up to the individual to decide whether the pleasure associ­ated with owning a pet is worth the work that goes with it.

Package holidays: Good or Bad?
A However, there are disadvantages to going on a package holiday.
В То start with, package holidays are cheaper than travelling on your own, as the price includes the air fare and hotel accommodation.
С Another negative aspect is that as you have paid for your accom­modation in advance, you often feel obliged to stay in that place rather than move around and explore.
D Furthermore, the brochures from which most people select a package holiday usually give you a good idea of what the resort offers, therefore reducing the chances of disappointment.
E Package holidays have several advantages.
F In the first place, as package holidays are less expensive, the hotel is unlikely to be top-class.
G Last but not least, when visiting a new place it is often much easier to have all the details arranged in advance as it can be rather con­fusing to plan everything by yourself.
H Also package holiday destinations are usually popular tourist resorts, thus there is little opportunity to experience the true culture of the country you are visiting

we think.
Many people are against/argue that we need advertisements in order to keep up to date with the latest products on the market.
One point of view against/in favour of travelling is that it allows you to meet people from different cultures.
Even though/Nevertheless most people nowadays use a computer at work, it will be a while before we stop putting our ideas down on paper.
For instance/Still, people who know how to play a musical instrument are usually popular and make friends more easily than others.

the following statement.
Fast food is very popular and saves time for busy working people. However, many experts say that it is not completely healthy.

 HELP! Fast Food Restaurants
For
They are quick and you don’t have to wait
The food is fairly cheap, especially for young people
They are the same everywhere, so you know what to expect
The restaurants are usually very clean and the waiters wear special uniforms (it’s pleasant to look at them)
They do their best to attract children, some of them organize parties for children ( for busy parents it saves a lot of trouble and time)
Against
The restaurants create litter
Rain forests are cut down to provide land for cattle for the fast food industry
The food contains a lot of fat and all is placed in a bun - that is unhealthy
You don’t really sit down to eat
The food is the same everywhere and you can’t order the dishes which you enjoy most of all or get used to
You can’t visit the restaurant before opening hours ( early in the morning)
