Modern appliances in the home have become more common, leaving no doubt that advances in technology have improved our lifestyle. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this?

When considering the effects of technology on our quality of life, one should bear in mind the complexity of the issue. Some people believe that modern developments,

a characteristic state or mode of living
lives
. In the following essay, I will provide arguments and examples to support my opinion. One of the main daily functions, where modern technologies have improved people's quality of life, is cooking. For many years, cooking was a long process, often taking hours, and even days, in order to make basic materials,
such
as bread, jam and cheese. With the introduction of modern machines, like the mixer, refrigerator and electrical stove, these processes have

time. The process of making bread
for example
, that previously required at least two hours, can now be done by pressing a button in a bread making machine.
This
example illustrates that modern machines allow us to have much more free time,
consequently
improving our lifestyle. Another example supporting my opinion is that modern technologies permits people to enjoy many

Similarly
, modern technologies allow people to enjoy high quality movies in their homes, by using flat screen televisions and surround
