An infinitive does not work here.) and supplant outdated items with new ones excessively . (Do not mention your essay. Answer the prompts very briefly.) ~~This essay will examine some reasons behind this phenomenon~~. (wrong word) There are two main reasons behind this trend. From my perspective,disposable culture (wrong expression. Cultures are not disposable. We keep our culture a long time.) has positive effects on society and the environment .

There are two main reasons why people make purchases of unessential items and replace t~~he replacement of~~ (You need the verb here.) old items by new ones . Firstly, First, they desire to become outstanding (wrong word) and more attractive . (What do you mean? A new shade of lipstick? ) This is because purchasing the latest goods that are useless (Why would buying something useless, like a buggy whip or a polaroid film camera, make people feel good?) makes them a sense of superiority . For instance, a lot of people make much effort (wrong collocation) into owing a iPhone 14 pro max that is the latest smartphone ~~technological device~~ so as to satisfy themselves and grab people's attention. Secondly, Second, Advertising (wrong capitalization) fuels demand for new products, leading people to constantly seek out the latest product. In fact, there are various commercials on TV focus on people's desire, (ungrammatical. There is no subject for the verb "focus.") which results in misinterpreting its (There is no antecedent for "it" - the closest noun is "desire" - but "desire" is not described as "useful") usefulness.

Some people believe that the effects of disposable culture are detrimental . (You are arguing against your own opinion. That is very detrimental for your band score. Your opinion is "has positive effects on society and the environment" If you present arguments against your opinion, you lose a lot of points.) When they buying (wrong verb form) the latest products, their old items can be thrown away , which creates a lot of waste .Consequently, it gives rise to environmental pollution.However ,environmental pollution is not only caused by waste, but also many other factors such as use of means of transport and production . (So when people buy more stuff, it has to be produced and delivered, which causes even more pollution.) Moreover, (wrong transition.) this behavior can create a lot of value for society. If one has a demand to purchase a lot of goods, companies will make big profits and therefore they can extract a part of the benefits (That does not make sense. Apple Corporation makes phones and tablets. They do not construct bridges.) to contribute to a country such as the construction of bridges, roads or organizing free English teaching programs for young children.

In conclusion, an excessive number of misleading advertisements and a sense of superiority are the main drives behind this consumer behavior. ~~phenomenon~~. (wrong word) In my opinion, it ~~this trend~~ (Wrong word. A trend is something that is increasing or decreasing. There is no trend in this task.) positively affects the society and the environment.
