In Korea, there is an old saying
which states “Gathering dusts will make a huge mountain”. Likewise, the
previous stage is required to achieve the next
stage. This concept also applied to the topic. There might be some people who
believe that airplanes have made a greater impact on society than cars.
However, I personally disagree with the above idea for two subsequent reasons.
First, cars started the industrial development
in earnest, and second, they ultimately help economy going well develop more than airplanes do.
First of all, cars help societies
to make enhancement. To be specific, even airplanes would not be have been invented without the invention of cars. As
cars enables people to move heavy materials, it accelerates working
processes. Without cars, the whole industry process might be slowed down, and
airplanes were probably not to be made probably
wouldn’t have been made. Let me bring up my story as an example. As an
art student, I often made huge scales of
artworks. To make those artworks, I needed to carry a bunch of materials.
Obviously, it was tough for me to move all those items to the studio. However, as one of my friends gave me a
hand by driving her car to carry the materials, I was able to finish my project
successfully. Without the small part, a the car, the bigger part, an the airplane, might not be invented. (논리가 조금 아쉬워요. 둘 중 무엇이 더 큰 영향을 끼쳤는지가 질문인데, 엉뚱하게 차가
없었으면 비행기도 없었다! 라고 하고 계세요.)
On top of that, cars make more
contribution to money flow. This is because cars have various forms, not only
personal cars, but also public transportation
such as taxi, bus, or truck. As individuals use these vehicles in everyday
life, it enables they enable capitals to
circulate through the society. This phenomenon cannot be stimulated with
airplanes. According to a research done by an
economic professor in Korean University, comparing money spend spent in a day in major cities of Korea of cars and
airplanes, the figures appear as $7.64 billion and $5.86 billion respectively.
It clearly illustrates that cars doing have a
more significant role in economy.
To sum up, cars have not only played an
important role in industrial revolution in the past, but also are contributing to the
current society’s economy. In this regard, I strongly claim that cars have made
a greater influence on society than airplanes.
