People living in the 21st century are enjoying better quality of life compared to people who lived in the previous century. To what extend do you agree or disagree?

People in the present

century

are privileged with a better standard of living compared to the previous

century

. I completely agree with

this

statement because the advancements in medicine and the widespread use of the internet have made our lives more convenient.

To begin

with, today's medicines have more capabilities than those of the 20th

century

because of technological advancements in medical science. It is well known that the field of medicine is ever-growing, which means more patients are being cured of illnesses that were previously known to be incurable.

For example

, during the 1900s, the mortality of patients who had undergone surgeries was nearly 40%, but now it has decreased to less than 2%.

This

is because of

Additionally

That is

to say, people do not have to stress about obtaining what they need.

For instance

, when someone decides to buy a product, they can order it using many online platforms;

however

,

this

was not the case 24 years ago, when purchasing items would have been extremely difficult because they had to put in more effort in searching for them. Now,

however

, it is a matter of clicks to get the desired products. In conclusion, I believe that people in the 21st

century

are living lives that are better than those of individuals in the 20th

century

because of better medical treatments and the convenience of the internet.
