 Modern Living

I am going to talk about modern living.

Firstly, modern technology plays a huge role in our daily lives nowadays. Electrical appliances are used by many people all over the world without any thought because they have grown up with them. These appliances have made our lives easier in many ways and enabled fast communication and travel.

Our jobs influence the way we live because our financial status depends on our job. What we do for a living also affects our daily timetable too, for example some people work unsociable hours. Other people work in places that are a long distance from their home and they are unable to spend much time with their families.

In our daily lives, we all face our own difficulties. School children have the pressure of their studies and exams to pass and workers have deadlines to meet. Individually we have problems with our relationships, our health, transport and money. On a wider scale, the world faces serious issues such as global warming and international conflicts.

Leisure time is important for everyone and a huge industry has grown up to cater for it. Some people like to take regular holidays in places away from their homes. Others enjoy participating in sporting activities. There are theatres, cinemas, circuses, theme parks and a wide range of home entertainment that people enjoy in their free time.

I think modern living is exciting and challenging and we should do our best to make the most of our opportunities.
