Life today is easier and more comfortable than it was when your grandparents were children. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Life today is easier and more comfortable than it was when your grandparents were children. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer. In contemporary society, people usually have better economic environment, convenient transportation, well-development technology system, it's more easy and enjoyable to have a comfortable life. Therefore, I agree with the fact that modern people are more comfortable than people who lived in my grandparents' childhood. First of all, people become rich because of economic development . For example, in my countries, Taiwan, when my grandparents were young, people were very poor, and they didn't have any fantastic toy. They couldn't have higher educational background, because they needed to help their family to earn money, they need to go to work after graduating form elementary school. In modern society, children can buy the toys which they want, and all of us can go to senior high school, even college and university. In second period, public transportation is convenient today. When my grandparents were young, they don't have well-development transportation system. For instance, if they needed to go other cities, they usually had to walk for several days. They had never went abroad, because airplane was fewer and expensive, and ordinary people couldn't afford it. However, life is more convenient now, when we go to south Taiwan from North Taiwan, it only need to spend two hours by metro system. And people can travel to other country easily. Last but not least, the development of technology make people have convenient life. For example, We have mobile phones, washing machines, and weeping robots. People can contact their friends and families easily and spend less time to do housework. This was impossible for my parents when they were young. They needed to write letter if they need to contact someone, and they needed to do a lot of housework by themselves. Of course we have a more comfortable life. In conclusion, contrary to the period when my grandparents were young, modern people are more comfortable. We have more money to buy desirable things, and we can enjoy convenient transportation system and technology. However, my grandparents cherished their own life, even if they were poor at that time. I think modern people need to learn this spirit, and treasure everything we have, because we own so many wonderful things.
