Early technological developments brought more benefits and changes to people’s lives than recent technological developments. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

It is true that the prevalence of advanced technologies has fundamentally transformed the whole world. While some people opine that early technological developments have far more beneficial effects on people’s lives than the recent ones, I completely disagree with this point of view, because both of those have equal significant impact on our lives.

On the one hand, many early technological devices have helped people and changed the way we live. The invention of printing, for example, has had a profound impact on the way we impart knowledge to the next generation. The printing press allows books and newsletters to be mass-produced, which means that more individuals can gain access to these information sources. The telephone is another early scientific breakthrough that has revolutionized and facilitated current methods of communication. From this, people can interact with each other in a far-flung place regardless of the geographical barrier. Finally, technological advances have led to new forms of transport, such as cars, trains and planes, which have completely changed the way we commute from home to the workplace and trade goods.

On the other hand, I contend that recently cutting-edge technology also ushers in some merits to our life. Firstly, the presence of computer and the Internet enables individuals to shop online a wide range of applications, which makes human life definitely more convenient. With only a click of the mouse, it is possible to purchase merchandise such as clothes and daily necessities without even leaving our comfortable home. In addition, as to space technology, the advent of space shuttles assists astronauts in carrying out space exploration programmes, which can broaden human’s horizons about not only terrestrial planets but also extraterrestrial lives on earth, such as supernovas or black holes.

In conclusion, while people can reap a variety of powerful effects from the early technological advancements, I do not believe that they can totally outweigh the recent ones.
