Professor: Today we're going to discuss the advantages [əd'væntɪdʒɪz] and disadvantages of remote [rɪ'moʊt] work. Who wants to start?

Student 1: I think remote work is great. Firstly, you save time because you don't have to commute. Secondly, you can work from anywhere. Moreover, many studies show that people are more productive [prə'dʌktɪv] at home.

Professor: Good points. However, there are also disadvantages, aren't there?

Student 2: Yes. Although remote work is flexible, it can be lonely. Furthermore, it's hard to separate work and personal life. Despite having more freedom, some people end up working more hours.

Professor: That's an interesting point. What about companies?

Student 1: Some companies save money on office space. On the other hand, they may spend more on technology. Nevertheless, many companies have decided to keep remote work because their employees prefer it.

Student 2: I'd rather work from home, but I think a hybrid ['haɪbrɪd] (híbrido) model is the best solution. That way, you can have the best of both worlds.

Professor: Good discussion. For your next essay, I want you to analyze this topic using linking words. You should include arguments for and against, and reach a conclusion.
