Writing Topic 3
Nowadays, food has become easier to prepare. Has this change improved the way people live? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
In the 20th century, a lot of useful electric home products, such as microwaves and refrigurator/freezer were invented. And that led the invention of conveinient foods such as frozen and instant foods and those new type of foods changed our ways to prepare foods and improve our lifves remarkably. Although we should not ignore the fact that taking too much of conveinient foods are sometimes bad for our health, but the precious time that we can save by useing them is also the fact that we have to appriciate.
Scince frozen and conveinient foods are frozen "cooked" foods, "boiled" vegitables and "cooked-freeze-dry" foods, all we had to do to cook these kinds of foods are heating them up or boiling them in a few minutes. This is why we can make our cooking time shorter than we used to do when we did not useing them. For examples, when my friend tried to make lasagna after she came back from colledge, she had to make pasta and tomato sause, and make layers of them in a plate and bake it in oven, and it took her about 2 hours to make it. And she also had to clean up cooking tools and plates that she used. After finished doing that she was so exhausted that she couldn't do any other things that she had to that day, such as her homework. By this lesson, now she eats frozen lasagna when she wants to eat it. When she makes this, all she has to do is to put frozen lasagna in a microwave, press the button and wait a few minutes. She doesn't need to wash any plates, cooking tools after she eats it and it only take her a few minutes to make it so she will have plenty of time to do other stuffs that she has to do in that day.
On the other hand, there are also the fact that taking too many conveinient foods has bad effects on our health. 2 years ago, a single old lady has died in Japan of malnutrition. She lived by herself and only could buy cheap instant noodles to eat. Becouse she couldn't take balanced nutrition from the foods she die of it. And almost a half of resent Japanese children have less ability to recognize the difference of salty and bitter than the old Japanese children had becouse they take more amount of conveinient foods which have simplified taste than the old children did.
However, these bad effects on human health by conveinient foods only happened when there is an exclusive and continuous consumption of them. Our lived has improved in a way that we can spend our time to other thing than just cooking. But to make frozen and conveinient foods bad for our health or make them useful for our lives is up to our way of taking them.

Getting better!!! but you MUST answer the question of "Has this change improved the way people live? "
your answer should be either Yes or No answer: the only explanation you gave was that is save time to do homework.
Here are some ideas....
1) less cooking time for moms= more time for them to sit at the table with the kids to enjoy family talk at the dinner table
2) Some moms are bad at cooking and feels guilty, so having instant food, it gives them little incurangement to cook. (self-confidence for mom's)
3) Kids who are at home alone can make food safely without using the stove
But your writing style is improving very quickly!
i'm very impressed!!
Love F
