Obviously, it is difficult to compare the life of ancient people and the life of the people
living in the 21st century because so many changes have occurred. Even the changes that
have occurred over the last ten years are amazing. To start with, in the past, people had to
work harder as they did not have tools and machines to make their work easier. Today,
most of the difficult and dangerous work is done by computers and other powerful
machines. In the past, living conditions were not as comfortable as they are now. Besides,
many people could not afford household appliances like a fridge or a vacuum cleaner
because those used to be luxurious goods. Another difference between life now and in the
past is that nowadays education is accessible to everyone. In the past, men were mainly
the only ones educated and women were not allowed into public or private schools.
Besides, nowadays, it is much easier to find the educational materials and the information
you need, thanks to the Internet. It is therefore an obvious conclusion that life has
changed significantly during the course of history.
