A
person’s worth nowadays seems to be judged according to social status and
material possessions. Old-fashioned values, such as honour, kindness and trust,
no longer seem important.
To what extent do you
agree or disagree with this opinion? Give reasons for your answer and
include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.
Write at least 250 words.
As time goes by, it is obvious that, the
value of people tends to be judged depending on their wealth, social status. Their
personalities such as kindness, faith, seem to be less important compared to
past. In this essay, I will discuss about this situation.
There is no doubt that when we evaluate
someone, people tend to look their background first rather than their
personality. Of course, it depends on situation, but mostly in our society, we
care about someone’s background first. First of all, it is hard to assess other’s
personality. It is because not only anyone can hide their thoughts or mind but
also old fashioned values (honor, kindness, trust, etc.) are subjective. Therefore,
people assess them differently. On the other hand, today’s value (social
status, wealth, etc.) have an objective indicator. We can expect that what
their material possessions are, so it is easy find it compared to subjective
ones.
However, even though it is difficult to value
a person, we should not judge someone only by their objective materials. When we
value someone, we have to look in various way. Even though we know they have
done enough to reach a high social status, their personalities are also
important in their values. For example, if someone have both high social status
and amount of money but have a bad personality, the value of he or she will be
low. Therefore, in these reasons, a majority of people still look their personality
when they value a person.
To conclude, from a realistic point of
view, I agree to a certain extent that we tend to look their back grounds
first. However, we have to keep in mind that it can be hasty to judge someone
only by material possessions.
