MODERN LIFE
 
My life is very different from that of my grandparents’ generation. Some of things are better today and other things are worse. I am glad that we have TV today, because I think that life might be a bit boring without having it. I also like cars, computers, and video games. I think young people have more fun today than that young people of my grand -parents’ generation. However, there are also a lot of bad things about life today. For our example, my grandparents did not have to live with pollution when they were younger. They could breathe with clean air when they walked in the streets. Also, there was less crime made in those days. My grandparents did not have to worry about them being burgled or mugged in the same way as we worry today. Nevertheless,  I am glad that I am young today, because I think so that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
