TOEFL essay: Compare and contrast your way of life with that of your parents Tue Apr 24, 2007 21:18 pm  TOEFL essay: Compare and contrast your way of life with that of your parents
 

Question:
Compare and contrast your way of life with that of your parents. Which way of life do you think would be more satisfying to future generations?

I think that the contrast between parents and children always exists. Sometimes parents don't like how their children live, I mean the way which choose their children. What about me, I often ask advise from parents, but I try to make my own decision. I know that they wish me well.

My parents was born in post USSR. And this is very big factor which influenced to the way of my parents' life. For example they lived according to plan. They knew that after graduating the university they whould work at factory or somewere else in their city where they lived. They never thought that could visit or study in abroad. However they traveled very often. My parents have been in many post USS Republics. My father engaged in hiking. He have visited many mountain in USSR.

Another factor is the developing of civilisation. For example with developing of computers technology the teenagers and young peoples more prefer to be near computer then to play socker or basketball.

I think my hobbies are different from hobbies of my parents. Therefore my way of life is differ from way of my parents life.

I think the my way of life would be more satisfying to future generations becouse time changes many things including the way of life. But somethings never change, i.e. interest in sports.

My parents wERE born in post USSR. And this is very big factor which influenced the way of my parents liVe. For example they lived according to A plan. They knew that after graduating FROM university they would work IN A factory or somewere else in THE city where they lived. They never thought that could visit or study abroad. However they traveled very often. My parents have been in many post USS Republics. My father IS INVOLVED/INTERESTED in hiking. He haS visited many mountainS in USSR.

Another factor is the developMENT of civilisation. For example with THE developMENT of computer technology teenagers and young people prefer to be near A computer RATHER THAN to play socCer or basketball.
