Positive and negative essays 
Introduction 
Paraphrase the topic
Although I admit that there are some negative consequences of this trend, I strongly 
believe it is a positive development because of some reasons.
Body 1 
On the one hand, there are two obvious negative effects of TOPIC.  
First of all, idea → how? why? → result → example. 
Moreover, idea 2→ how? why? → result → example. 
Body 2 
On the other hand, despite causing some issues, I still believe that two primary 
benefits will emerge.
One primary benefit is that idea → how? why? → result → example. 
Besides that, idea 2→ how? why? → result → example. 
Conclusion 
In conclusion, I believe that the negative outcomes of the discussed topic can be 
avoided by taking proper actions and, to me, it seems to be positive development 
after all.
