ACTIVITY #5
After reading, consider the following questions to write an essay. Make sure to include a
starting and closing paragraph, as well as including your point of view.
oDo consumer goods improve people’s quality of life?
oAre consumer goods hard to find?
oHow are luxury products viewed in your society and context?
oDo consumer societies care about the environment?
Today’s products are almost essential for our social development because are already tools that
are only found in technology or simply there is no compatibility with oldest things.
In that case, the people´s quality of life has improved because facilitate their chores, example:
smart phone, smart tv, smart fridge, there are many smarter things. I know a lot of people who is
good consumer, they buy much thing. In my opinion are cool things.
The bad side is addiction and luxury products, sometimes the luxury products are overrated, it´s a
popular brand, they buy it, no matter what the price. I don’t think they no have a good or rational
reason about care their society environment. Actually the most consumer´s worry that others will
say if they don’t have a product of the latest model. They care much about the products that will
be come.
If I have the money, I could shop a lot of things but with the mentality “don´t buy too much and
unnecessary things”.
