Ielt writing Write about the following topic: Is freedom of speech necessary in a free society? Give reasons for your answer. This problem is very important, because freedom of speech is a matter of political situation in a country. From one hand, freedom of speech is necessary, it lets to know mood of population in the certain country and make suitable decisions by government. For example, if top people of country listen to and hear what people say, they can avoid riot and even revolution. Moreover, sometimes situation in society is clearer for citizens, and they know what government should change in rules and law to make life more comfortable. Further more, freedom of speech motivates people to know more and interest about surrounding. If a guy on the television or radio says some interesting useful idea, listeners won’t be quiet. They will discuss this problem, search in the internet, share opinions at the forums and so on. It goes without doubt, that decision about the problem will be found and people won’t be like couch potato. From another hand, so many useless staff covers us from TV, radio, internet every day. Sometimes people say publically unbelievable nonsense; they just have bought this time on TV and use it. In these situations follow my advice: keep your children and sick people far from screen. Unfortunately, it happens not so rare and is plenty annoying. In conclusion I would like to say that, it really depends. We need freedom of speech, but topics should be useful and their decision has to be efficient.
