Do you agree or disagree with this statement? Write your opinion paragraph in 5 to 10 sentences. It should be structured like this:
1 Topic sentence (state your opinion) 2 Development (by giving details, an explanation or example) 3. Concluding sentence (restate your opinion or sum up the main points)Advantage of living alone is that you can live without anyone telling you what are you supposed to do.
Also, if you are quiet and introvert it is good for you to have some space and peace.
Disadvantage of living alone is that you have to pay for everything and sometimes you can feel very lonely.
In our opinion it’s better to live with someone, because we have more opportunities. If we talk about advantages there is a lot of them. We have parents protection and safe place for living. If we talk about friends who live with us it is the same. But if you look from the other side you can see that there is a lot of disadvantages, like that you don’t have right on your opinion and you depend by parents side.
Living with someone can be a very fun and interesting experience, but is it a smart decision to make? Nowadays, more and more people in college campus dorms live together with a roommate, but some of them still prefer to live alone.
We prefer living with someone, because you always have someone to talk to and the rent is cheaper when shared. All in all – it’s more fun.
On the other hand, people you live with can sometimes disturb you when you’re studying, especially if you have trouble concentrating.
In conclusion, it might be better to live with a friend, as long as you find a suitable person.
Living alone has its goodsides because you have more time for yourself. Nobody can distract yor mind from learning.
But, on the other hand, living with somebody has its good sides, too. For example, if you are busy and you can not do your shopping, pay your bills, or cook your lunch, your roommate can do it for you. Also, if you are living with someone, you will never be bored. But it doesn’t mean that you should spend all of your time socializing. You two should have an agreement about studying time, socializing time and also a list of ‘to do stuff’. Otherwise you will argue easily.
We think that it is better living alone than living with room mate, because you have more space for yourself. Also, you are more focused on your obligations and you can meet with your own friends whenever you want.
However, if you are afraid of living alone and if it is maybe depressing for you then it is better to have room mates.
