Sample essay
In recent years, the field of Information Technology has become increasingly popular among young people. I have found a table with the results of
opinion polls on why teenagers in Zetland choose career in IT. I will analyse this data and give my opinion about this topic.

As we can see from the table, most teenagers choose a job in this area because it is financially rewarding (33%) and there are plenty of vacancies
which young people can choose from (25%). The least popular reason for choosing a job in IT is constant development, noted only by 8% of the
respondents.

Looking at the figures in the table, we can see that working from home (noted by 20% of the respondents) is the reason for choosing IT careers, which
is by 6% more popular than the opportunities for creativity (14%) these jobs offer. I find it not surprising as young people do not want to waste their
time commuting to work.

The issue is that many IT jobs require long hours sitting in front of a computer screen. This sedentary lifestyle can lead to health problems such as
back pain and eye strain. I believe that the best solution to this problem would be taking breaks and stretching regularly. They can help relieve
physical discomfort from sitting for extended periods and help your eyes relax.

Overall, in today’s world, IT plays a vital role in our daily lives. It has become an essential part of our personal and professional lives, making tasks
easier, faster, and more efficient. I believe that the importance of IT cannot be overstated, as it has revolutionized the way we live, work, and
communicate.
