With the development of society and technology, we are richer and richer. Undoubtedly everyone in the society wants to have a better life. One of the most critical aspects for a better life is health. How to gain a heath life is a topic attracts attention all over the world. Thousands of scientists are seeking to find the answer. In this case someone claims that nowadays it is easier to maintain good health than in the past. From my perspective, I disagree. To begin with, our environment is seriously polluted, which is really harmful to our health. Only concerning about economic growth, people now ignore our environment. With the catchword of economy comes first, people have already seriously damaged our environment. Take my hometown Beijing for an example. I still remember, when I was a little kid, my parents always took me to the park near my home to enjoy leisure time. At that time, the environment is very comfortable, especially the fresh air which I will never forget. But things different now, many trees have been cut down and many rivers have been contaminated all these are very harmful to people’s health. Especially the air, which usually has small particles and funny smell now, impedes people to have a better life. Every year, thousands of people suffer breath system disease mainly because of the polluted air. In this case, it seems clear to me that maintain healthy now is more difficult than before. In addition, because of the more and more drastic competition, nearly all the people have great pressure, especially the white collars working in the big city. Take my brother for an excellent example. My brother landed a well-pay job in a list company after graduate. At first he was very happy because he could make a lot of many but gradually he found his work is too onerous to be dealt with. What is worse, there is always burden of overtime work. So he had huge pressure at that time. Finally due to the complicated work and huge pressure, he decided to quite the job. He said that if he continued the work, he would soon collapse. In this sense, huge pressures nowadays impede people to gain a health life. To sum up, because of the reasons I describe above, it is obviously that it is harder to maintain good health now than before. |
