OUR LIFESTYLE COMPARED TO THE PAST-by Andrea Escribano

Our lifestyle has changed a lot since100 years ago, but, does it have a good meaning or a bad one? Most people think life is better today and I agree with them. There are more studies and great technology which can help people in many ways and things.

Regarding entertainment, people have much more things to have fun with. Lots of different video-games have been created and they can do many things like surfing the Internet or going shopping on line. On the other hand, there are more people each day who do not know how to do anything without technology and also can be a problem.

However, lifestyle has affected the environment because of the pollution it can produce. But nowadays more measures are being taken to reduce pollution (for example: electric cars).

Also, the society has improved a lot in women´s rights, now they can vote, have their own business and have the same work and salary as the man. This did not happen before. Women and man didn't have the same work and women didn't have their own business if they did not have permission of their parents or husband.

To sum up, today's lifestyle is,in general, better  than 100 years ago and society has improved so much. I think, this are some things that have made us progress.
