    Coffee
    Coffee has good points and bad points. Coffee is bitter but most people prefer to drink it. I like to drink it for three reasons.
    First, coffee can be easily bought. Most people prefer to drink coffee because it make then not sleepy from working. Second, from the research people drinking coffee every day helps prevent many diseases, for example cirrhosis from drinking alcohol, and coffee helps alleviate the pain because coffee is the mix of caffeine. Finally, however, if drinking too much, then it negatively affects health. It makes the system work abnormal. After that, you have cost of treatment.
    In conclusion, I think coffee has good points and bad points. For me, I used to drink coffee and then feel shaken. After that, I don’t drink coffee. However, coffee may be beneficial to many people. What do you think about coffee?
