[Task 2] Please Check My Essay. Thank You So Much.

In some countries, many more people are choosing to live alone nowadays than in the past. Do you think this is a positive or negative development?

In recent years, it has become far more than normal for people to live alone and the figures of one-person households seem to increase. However, whether this phenomenon makes positive or negative consequences? In my opinion, I believe that living alone has both beneficial and detrimental to our development.

First, the rise in one-person households can be seen as positive for both personal and broader economic reasons. On the individual level, people who live alone will be more independent, self-reliant and nimble than those live with family members. For example, these individuals must learn to pay for house bills, cooking, cleaning if they wish to live stable. From an economic perspective, the trend towards living alone will result in great demand for housings, which means to the development of the construsion industry. Estate agents and companies will have more chance to push up their profit base on this phenomenon thus creating jobs and taking off unemployment rates.

On the other hand, the personal and economic arguments given above can be considered from the opposite angle. Rather than the positive feelings of independence, people may face and bear the weight of loneliness, isolation, and worry which affects directly to their spiritual life quality. For example, they miss out on the emotional supply and daily conservation that a family or flatmates can make. Secondly, they will be easier to get depression that is figured on the increasing rate of this disease. I believe that those who live alone feel more freedom but not as happy as the others who not. Finally, the higher demand for housing that this phenomenon makes also pushes up property prices and rents.

In conclusion, it seems to have equally beneficial and detrimental. Individuals who live alone should balance their work and their real relationship. By doing so, they can make the positive outweigh its negative consequences.
