We live in very complex society and in this society we should develop ourselves consistently not to remain behind others. In this circumstance, it is time to seriously consider about what ability is most necessary to improve ourselves. There is so much controversy over whether how well we can read and write is more important than any other skills. Some people believe that speaking is more significant than reading and writing. However, I strongly insist that reading and writing skills have more influence on our everyday life and become more and more significant in developed society. First of all, nowadays, there are few people who can not read and write. Secondly, most tasks and tests are usually done with written words. Lasy of all, as science technology is developing, we communicate with others on internet network and this ask us good reading and writing skills.
To begin with, in the previous days, there are so many people who were not able to write any words and even read. The society which consists of those people does not require people to have good writing and reading abilities. However, as lives of people is being enhanced and advanced, most people could have get the basic educations including learning how to read and write. Thanks to this, nowadays, there are nearly no one who is illiterary. Naturally, to improve the skills to read and write has been asked to nowadays' people.
Also, most recent works and exams are performed on papers and we should write the answers or results on the paper by written words. By doing so, we are assessed by those writings. Of course, there are several oral tests especially we can see this in the case of interviews. However, looking this in wider view, it is impossible to evaluate too many people's oral tests. For this reason, actually, most big exams have the students to write the answers on the papers and they check those answers later. It is more effective way which can be done by limited conductors. Likewise, in the work field, employees usually show their performances by report several documents which contain their results. Then managers or employers read them and recommend to those papers by writing some words on them.In this view, nowadays society requires people to develop their reading and writing skills.
Last of all, as science technology are developing very quickly, we are tend to communcate with people indirectly. That is, we usually share our opinions through the monitor and using the online services. For nowadays students, it is usual to chat with friend on the internet not talking on the phone. They make appoinments and share their feelings by typing. It is not only the case of youngsters but also the adults.Thinking of the era when businesses were completely done by meeting people in person and hand in many papers directly, nowadays' contracts are quitely different. Many businessmen use internet to accomplish several contracts. In this situation reading correctly and writing well is very vital.
To sum up, nowadays' people should have good abilities to read and write. Nearly all the people can read and write, also, most works ask people to show their efforts and results in written words. Furthermore, as more and more the science technology is developing, the better and better skills to read and write is required because, it becomes more popular form to speak through the internet by typing keyboards. |
