▶ Your Answer :
Because the world is changing so quickly,
people now are less happy or less satisfied with their lives than people were
in the past. It is of great worth to discuss whether or
not people today are more unhappy and unsatisfied with their lives than in the
past because of the rapidly changed world. While some people might agree with
the statement, others might disagree with it. As far as I am concerned, I
disagree with the notion. In this essay, I will explore the two main reasons
for my standpoint as follows. First of all, people can be able to broaden
their perspective due to the fast changed world. An important reason is that
people can be readily exposed to the different idea and thoughts that we have
never known before while interacting and socializing with various friends who
were from other countries through social network service. Consequently, people
can take a quantum leap in intellectual growth. For example, my sister are
interested in European culture. She have never been Europe since she didn’t
have time to visit there. However, by using social network service such as
Facebook, she understood and learned about a variety of cultural things as
European music, food, and clothing. This is because she could talked with
native people and be exposed to European culture in Facebook. Moreover, the rapidly changed world helps
people to alleviate their stress and clear people’s mind. This is mainly because
that people can easily enjoy a variety of activities ranging from going to
travel abroad to playing virtual reality games since the world is changing so
fast. This means that these kinds of activities enables a fresh approach to
perplexing and stressful problems. A few weeks ago, I had a chance to read an
op-ed piece that was related to the topic. It described the result of a survey
conducted by Seoul National University. In the survey, most of respondents said
that they were exhausted and stressed due to demanding works. However, 75
percent of them replied that they could have a brief moment of relief form
their stressful work through enjoying a travel and virtual reality games. Had
the society not changed so fast, people could not enjoy those kinds of activities.
To sum up, people are positively affected
by the quickly changing world in terms of broadening their perspective and
reliving stress. For these reasons, I strongly believe that people are more
happy and satisfied with their lives since the world is changing so fast. |
