People have different opinions about whether we depend more or less on others now. In my opinion, modern life forces us to be more independent than before.
There are two main reasons why we rely more on each other now. First of all, life is more complex and difficult, especially because of the dramatic increase in the cost of living. For example, young people often depend on their parents for help when they buy a house. Property prices are higher than ever, and without help, many people could not pay a deposit or mortgage. Second, people seem more ambitious now, and they want better quality of family life. This means that parents usually need full-time jobs, and they rely on support from grandparents and nannies to take care of their children.
However, I agree with those who believe that people are more independent now. In most countries, families are becoming smaller and more dispersed, which means that people can not rely on their relatives as they used to. We also have more freedom to travel and live away from home. For example, many students choose to study abroad rather than go to a local university, which makes them more independent when they are learning to live alone. Another factor of this increasing independence is technology, which enables us to work alone, from anywhere in the world.
In conclusion, although there are some reasons to believe that people depend more on each other now, my personal view is that we are more independent than ever
人們對我們現(xiàn)在是否或多或少地依賴別人有不同的看法。在我看來,現(xiàn)代生活迫使我們比過去更加獨(dú)立。
有兩個主要原因可以解釋為什么我們現(xiàn)在更依賴對方。首先,生活更加復(fù)雜和困難,特別是因?yàn)樯钯M(fèi)用急劇增加。例如,年輕人在買房時往往依賴父母的幫助。房地產(chǎn)價格比以往任何時候都高,如果沒有幫助,許多人就不可能支付押金和抵押貸款。第二,現(xiàn)在人們似乎更雄心勃勃,他們希望家庭生活質(zhì)量更好。這意味著,家長通常需要全職工作,他們依靠從祖父母、保姆照顧孩子的支持。
然而,我同意那些認(rèn)為現(xiàn)在人們更獨(dú)立的人。在大多數(shù)國家,家庭越來越小,越來越分散,這意味著人們不能像過去那樣依靠親屬。我們也有更多的自由旅行和生活遠(yuǎn)離家鄉(xiāng)。例如,許多學(xué)生選擇去國外學(xué)習(xí)而不是去當(dāng)?shù)氐拇髮W(xué),這種經(jīng)歷使他們在學(xué)習(xí)獨(dú)居時變得更加獨(dú)立。這種日益獨(dú)立的另一個因素是技術(shù),它使我們能夠獨(dú)自工作,從世界任何地方工作。
總之,雖然有一些理由相信人們現(xiàn)在相互依賴更多,但我個人的觀點(diǎn)是我們比以往更加獨(dú)立。
