▶ Your Answer :
Some people think that life has become
harder compared to past time when our grandparents were young. However in my
opinion, modern life is much more comfortable and easier than past days. This
is because of the development of transportation and advent new communication systems.
To begin with, traveling becomes far more
convenient now that it used to be. Over the last 60 years, there were not many
options for traveling. Transportation systems were not fully supplied and it
was not common use high-speed train or airplane. On the contrary, people in
present time have more options for traveling such as KTX, SRT or inland airplanes.
For examples, in the past time, my grandparent has to take train to go Seoul to
Busan. It took almost 8 hours. Even going to another country could not be
imagined at that time. It was too expensive and there were not many airlines.
However, nowadays, we can go Seoul to Busan within two hours through express train.
Even going abroad is not the big deal.
On top of that, we can communicate easily
thanks to cell phone. In the past, when our grandparents were young, people
didn’t own cell phone. It was not easy to contact and wait long time to get
mail delivered. However, almost all of people have personal mobile phone. This
invention made us very convenient. Moreover, this cellphone made people in the
world communicate thorough internet-based social network service. For example,
when I planned to travel Paris last summer, I could find nice place to sightsee
or have meal through Instagram. And after arriving there, I could share my days
in Paris with friends in the all over the world.
To sum up, living in present time can give
us more convenient life. Transportation made us reduce time to move another
place. Cell phone also gave us to communicate people easily. In this regard,
life now is less challenging than when our grandparents were young. (326) |
