It is often said that traditional house is very advantageous. Some people may be opposed to this statement because traditional houses built with obsolete techniques are inconvenient and have a difficulty accessing. However, I definitely believe that traditional houses are much better than modern apartments. This is because they are beneficial to both people health as well as environment.
First of all, people can stay healthy by living in a traditional house. One significant reason is that they are tend to be made of natural materials such as rocks, trees and sand. It has a significantly positive role in improving people's health, especially respiratory system. For example, my cousin had suffered from lung cancer for a long time. His state was fatal to the extend to gave up all treatment in hospitals. In the end, he decided to lived in the traditional house in rural areas, just spending left time of his life without any concerns. Surprisingly, after he moved to the traditional house from apartment, he showed more and more recovery and after 6 years, now he is very healthy.
Also, traditional houses are less likely to destruct environment relatively. They make a harmony with nature, surrounded by forest. On the other hand, to build a complex apartment which are more loved by dwellers, all components of mountains have to be eliminated and then artificial road emitting noxious chemicals cover the all environment. For instance, according to a recent study, the amount of trees which are cut to build a apartment is much larger than traditional house by 8 times. The study also mentioned that because of removed trees which play an pivotal role in grasping all other plant and soil, disasters such as flood are more frequently provoked than ever before.
On the whole, I absolutely prefer to live in a traditional house than a modern apartment. By residing in a traditional house, I can keep not only my health but also environment. Although apartments, a symbol of human technical progress, are convenient, in the long run, people need to go back to the nature for the true development of human society. |
