Type1: Agree & Disagree, Opinions on one viewpoint(perspective)

Opening Template:

Affirm/Negate:

With the popularity of Internet, come the subsequent disputes over it.
Whether Internet can be used by children or not become the focus of public
attention. Although a certain part of public opinion seems to weigh in favour
of restrictions, I would rather lean towards limits to some extent than total
restriction.
 Both:

Internet has become an essential tool in today’s society, which can be seen
everywhere in our daily life. The issue over whether Internet is suitable for
children or not is highly debatable, as there are many pro and con factors
leading to diverse viewpoints. In my opinion, the phenomenon that children
have access to Internet has both positive and negative influence.

Type2: Advantage & Disadvantage

Opening Template:

It has been almost (a half century / two decades/...) since Internet was first
(introduced / established / innovated / popularized / ...) (into / in)
(somewhere). Today Internet has become an essential part of living for many
people. Along with this social change, various attitudes toward whether it has
positive or negative influence on the society have (emerged / arisen). No
doubt there are inevitable damages of Internet, but in my opinion the
benefits of it outweigh its costs

Type3: Problem

Opening Template:

A recent (study / research / report / message) suggests that Internet makes

people feel more lonely and isolated. That situation, most (scientists /
authorities / experts / researchers / commentators) believe, is likely to
continue for a long time. There are many possible reasons, which are not
fully understood and hard to (avoid / avert), for the issue, however some
solutions to (alleviate / moderate / cushion) it would be probably discovered.
