【参考范文】

Social media are gaining increasing popularity, through which individuals communicate with others and obtain news information on a daily basis. Personally, I am inclined to the view that the merits of this prevail over the drawbacks.

The primary benefit of people's everyday exposure to social media is that they can maintain a sound relationship with others. Young people attending university in another city or country can keep in touch with their family and friends, conveniently sharing their lives with each other. Working adults can easily communicate with their clients, which eventually contributes to their work performance.

Another major advantage is that people can understand what is happening across their country or over the globe in a timely fashion. In the past, the public could hear about the world one or two days after the events had happened as the technology then was under-developed. In contrast, news applications on electronic devices today can automatically send users instant messages, making it possible for them to know about current affairs without waiting.

However, the disadvantages of people being exposed to social media daily cannot be ignored, the most obvious of which is that their physical health can be threatened. If they spend an excessive amount of time on social media, chatting and keeping up with the news, they may lead a sedentary life, lacking proper exercise. In the end, they are likely to suffer from eye fatigue, headaches, and backaches.

In conclusion, I reiterate that there are more positive influences than negative ones if people use social media in their everyday lives to talk to people and access news coverage. After all, they can maintain good relationships with others and know about the world without delay. Nevertheless, I understand that using social media every day can damage their fitness. Therefore, I suggest parents control their offspring's screen time and adults participate in various activities.
