One possible version:
Web Language, adopted online, appears in our everyday life. Different people hold different ideas about this phenomenon.
About 40% of the students are opposed to the widespread use of Web Language in our writing, assuming that Web Language is so absurd/ridiculous that people find it hard to understand these fashionable words. Besides, they hold the view that it goes against the Chinese grammar rule, which is not beneficial to students’ studies.
However, 60% of the students subscribe to the view of applying it to our writing. They appreciate the humor in Web Language, which makes our expression vivid. On top of that, it is also an effective way to get across our ideas.
From where I stand, it makes great sense to use Web Language properly in our writing. With the popularity of the Internet, the use of Web Language has become a necessary trend. At the same time, the proper use of Web Language in writing serves to polish our words and makes our expression flexible. So we might as well adapt to the trend and keep pace with times.
