▶ Your Answer :
It is evident that in our current society health has a tremendous
importance in our lives. Some people think that it is more demanding to
maintain their health nowadays than it was in the past, while others do not. I
however, believe that it is easier to maintain our health than it was in the
past. There are several reasons that I could discuss to support my argument so
I will limit my discussion to the two that I feel are most relevant to the
topic: the concept of resources and convenience
. First of all, the most
important reason for my thinking this way is that resources in terms of money
are more plentiful nowadays. Most often, due to the rapid development of the
economy coupled with the improvements in the quality of life, people have more
money than ever. Thus, it can be said that people can maintain their health
more easily than the past because people can use much more money on exercising
than before. A really good example can be seen in I and my father. I can afford
my running shoes because I make enough money right now. However, my father says
that he didn't have any money to purchase running shoes because people at that
time earned less money than nowadays. As this example shows, it is easier to
maintain our health than it was in the past
. Second, another reason
which supports my point is that doing exercise is more convenient nowadays.
Commonly in society, it was difficult for people to go to a gym in the past
because of the scarcity of gym. Therefore, one can conclude logically that it
is easier to maintain our health than it was in the past because going gym to
exercise was too much of a hassle in people's lives in the past. Take Clayton
Lee, one of my high school teacher, for example. He always said that even
though he really loved to do exercise in a gym, he couldn't exercise because
there had been no gym around 20 miles near his house. However, it takes less
than ten minutes for me to go to a gym. This example clearly shows that it is
easier to maintain our health than it was in the past
. All things considered,
with the reasons mentioned above, I believe that I have sufficiently and
adequately explained my position on the matters regarding this topic. |
