Supporting Paragraph 2
By contrast, besides the benefits there must be negative consequences. When people get older, they
will become unhealthy because their organs are unable to deal with extreme age. Additionally, more
people may suffer from painful diseases such as arthritis. Another factor is that
society's
welfare will
break down; for example, in Japan, the young citizens have to pay tax to support the old ones.
Moreover, an
increase in the population of old people
may lead to natural resources being exhausted,
as
our world is
now
facing the
exhaustion
of water
resources.
Again, you have done a good job of introducing the focus of the paragraph: negative consequences.
And you have given good examples. Be careful of using i.e. and e.g., as these abbreviations
sometimes seem abrupt. Below, I have focused more on one example and discussed it in more detail.
Here is another example of how this idea could be presented:
In contrast, human longevity would also have many negative consequences on society. First of all,
when people get older, they are more likely to suffer from illnesses or diseases associated with old
age, like arthritis and Alzheimer’s. If an increasing number of people suffered from these illnesses,
society would suffer as additional resources would be needed to care for the growing number of old
and infirmed citizens. Even today, many countries' economies, like Japan, for example, are having
difficulties as younger workers pay high taxes to support the elderly. This problem could be
exacerbated if the number of old people within society continues to increase.
Conclusion
In conclusion, I believe that the disadvantages for people living to one hundred and fifty years far
outweigh the advantages. Therefore, this development would be
a
largely negative one for our
society.
Again, this is clearly stated and provides a good summary to your essay. Well done. I would keep
this as is, except to change the preposition "for" to "of", as done below:
In conclusion, I believe that the disadvantages of people living to one hundred and fifty years far
outweigh the advantages. Therefore, this development would be a largely negative one for our
society.
