Currently, humans bear heavy pressure from fierce competition, so they show frustrated and deliberated most time. It may cause a question that whether people in modern society are less friendly than before or not. It seems that their behaviors express unfriendly and indifferent, however, I believe that humans in present society are more friendly. And more details are as follow.
It is an unjust view to consider that people are not friendly due to keep distance with others. It is true that under this situation of rapidly developing economy and culture(读者特别奇怪,一般都说rapid development of economy and culture, developing economy是发展中的经济,不是经济发展), people are increasingly concerned about their privacy, which is distinguished from decades ago(distinguish的用法不太对,它是识别辨别的一次,不是与..不同的意思). Take an example in my country, my grandparents, living in countryside, told me they had never locked doors when was out because neighbors were like part of family would not steal anything from their house. People, at that time, showed specific hospitality and friendliness to neighbors, relatives, even strangers. Besides, people from my grandparents’ generation always shared food and other necessities in daily life. Because of undeveloped living condition, only one family had a small black and white television set, however, the rest of neighbors all showed up in that neighbor’ house to watch TV program in the evening.(show up的用法有问题,下面是英文解释:to arrive where you have arranged to meet sb or do sth)
At present, things have changed widely and deeply. More residents are living in buildings in the city, so lifestyle has become distinctive. New apartments and new neighbors cause limitation(这个有点不太搭,可以换个动词或者直接用limit) for people’s relationship. Nevertheless, it does not mean they are unfriendly. For instance, last summer when one of our neighbors’ apartments was on fire due to getting drunk, others aided to call firemen and other emergency calls(用一个就可以,觉得太罗嗦了), assisting firemen to put out the fire. Neighbors finally provided some donations for that family including money, cloth(clothes单数是布的意思) and some equipments. Although people currently do not share more personal life due to keeping privacy, they are still as friendly as before. In my perspective, they use different method to show their concerns and warm hearts. They would like to help and save others who in need but no one prefers to share privacy as people from my grandparent did: to go to neighbors to watch TV. Therefore, in different time, humans have their friendly culture to follow and pursue.
To conclude, people in modern society are still friendly by using their approach.(是不是想说不同的方法,没有表达出来,加个形容词吧,by去掉) Hence, it is reasonable to claim that they are unfriendly presently.(到底是reasonable 还是unreasonable,前后观点不一致)
要论证自己的观点就要集中论证,前面说父辈的情况用了太多篇幅,让人感觉不到你肯定的态度,不如两段都说现代人friendly的例子。 |
