Topic: In today's world, to speak well is more important than to write well.
Someone is a naturally strong speaker tending to express directly; someone, on the other side, prefer to representing indirectly by writing. It is a little hasty to say that speaking skills are inferior to writing ones, or vice versa in today's world, because both abilities are playing indispensably roles depending on certain circumstances.
Speaking and writing are two different methods for people expressing themselves; thus, the two skills play different roles in different people with different jobs. For some people, whose works are mainly related to writing, it is more important for them to write well than speak. Take editors in a News company as an example, whose articles will be red by millions of people everyday, from national to international, from town to city, it is necessarily for them to possess strong writing skills, which made one's paper unitive, coherent and appealing, even though his or her speaking ability is really low.
Similarly, for other people, speaking well is more crucial. People today like to receive information directly from the interview. So the journalists who take charge in reporting news should own strong speaking ability when they are taking with others face to face. A reporter who has a magic voice and speaks clearly can not only make this program absorbing but also attract audience's interesting and attention. Surly, it does not matter whether or not he or she is able to write well, since someone else can help them to write the speech draft.
In addition, since the speaking and writing are both methods to express oneself, which means they are not exclude, so it is necessarily for people to possess both skills. If you were a professor, no matter how good and deep your paper are, were you can not speak well while standing in front of class, your job is hardly reckoned well without student's welcome; if you are student, soever how well you can talk with others, were you not own basic writing skills, you even scarcely can pass the examination in school. Numerous instances can be listed, obviously, more often than not, speaking and writing are equally important in people's daily life, school's work and so on.
Maybe you are too shame to show yourself face to face but are inclinable to exhibit ideas by writing; or maybe you are afraid to start writing but good at speaking. However, no matter what kind of characters you are and what kind of works you are pursing in, I stoutly believe that speaking and writing well are both important to you.
