Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Young people enjoy life more than older people. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer. |
There are different ideas over whether the old have more oppotunities to enjoy their lives than the young. Although it is ture that old people enjoy their own time, but I think young people have far more chances to have a good time through their young years. This is largely due to the fact that young people tend to have a lot of advantages to enjoy their time and there are much more things for young people to enjoy their lives.
To begin with, young people can easily get far more oppotunities to enjoy their time than old people. In general, young people have better fitness condition than old people and they are more active than the old. From my personal experience, when my grandmother was relatively young, she travelled many places in Korea because she was fairly healthy. However, as times goes by, she couldn't keep her journey which was her favorite hobby because of her age. Getting older, she realized that she wasn't able to go trip as much as when she was young. As a result, she tended to stay at her house at an old age owing to her bad health condition. This shows that when people are young they are able to have better lives then when they are old.
As to the second point, it is faily easy to find plenty of things to enjoy for young people. Generally speaking, there are much more things to have fun for young age in our society such as backpacking tourisms or amusement parks for young people. To illustrate, according to the research done by department of Health & Welfare in Korea, 75 percent of people answered that it is not enough for old people to enjoy their lives in Korea. On the other hand, only 25 percent of people stated that the old can easily get their chances to have their enjoyable time. This illustrates that young people can more easily find good oppotunities to enjoy their live than old people.
To sum up, the young can easily enjoy their lives than the old. The reason is that youngster are healthier than old, so they can have more good time than the old. Moreover there are plenty of things to enjoy for younger people around us. All things considered, people should enjoy their lives as much as possible when they are young. |
