Is it better to be ancient or modern, and ancient or modern? What are the advantages of each?

Just imagine using ...... without a computerNot to mention the network.

Diseases that are now treatable are called incurable.

There are no electric lights at night - oil lamps are very expensive, and most people don't light them much.

Nothing** to look at ......

There are no buses to get around, and a year is not enough time to travel between two places in China, let alone ...... other continents

During the day, he was busy with agricultural affairs, political affairs, and poetry ......I have nothing to do when I'm free.

A lot of the food you can eat now wasn't ...... before the Ming DynastyAnd there were not many seasonings before the Ming Dynasty, and the more ancient times were, it was very good to eat refined salt in places that were not prosperous in the mainland, and many of them used damp salt blocks.

In the war-torn world, people's lives are not guaranteed, and there is no place to escape......

No fans in the summer, no heating in the winter, let alone air conditioning.

There is no fridge ......Not to mention cold drinks, it is difficult to even keep food fresh, and eat local specialties. Of course, there are occasional ice cellars available for the royal and northern superpowers, but ......

Bathing problems, dressing problems, ......A whole bunch.

Finally: it is said that it is ancient air***, but in modern times you go to the wild and then go to the city to find that the air is far from unbearable.

It is said that the ancient culture is good, because the rich people in ancient times had nothing else to do, but mortals should think about life first.

Modern urbanites go to live in remote villages without water and electricity for 5 years, and you can feel it.

Finally, the inheritance of ancient culture is a modern issue, and the result of only indulging in ancient traditions has exploded in modern times. Some things have to be in moderation.

Ask, how did the ancient people wash it? How disgusting it is to kiss a woman...

It depends mainly on what you think, in ancient times, there was little pollution, it was worthless, and freedom of speech was not promoted; In modern times, there is a lot of pollution, high prices, high housing prices, and freedom of speech, but people are very realistic.

Of course, each has its own benefits.

Modern science is developed, communication is developed. Quality of life improves.

In ancient times, the people who experienced the slave society and feudal society, of course, the people living at the bottom were not well fed and clothed.

Each dynasty will have an atmosphere.

When the dynasty changes, there will be developed scientific and technological progress during the prosperous period, and people can prosper when their lives are stable.

Whenever it is said to the people, it is better that there is no war and no great disaster. For an aspiring hero, troubled times can stimulate his energy even more.

There is no absolute one that is better than this, it depends on your own thoughts.

Ancient: 1. The clothes are better-looking.

2. There is not as much homework as there is now, and it is not as difficult as it is now.

3. The air is much fresher than now, and the natural environment is much better than now......(There should be many more, I'll only think of these for the time being).

Modern: 1. There are many entertainment items (TV, computer......）

2. High technology (good living conditions).

3. The culture is relatively high.

4. Know more about the place where you live.

5. The nature and system of society are more democratic than those of ancient times.

6. Convenient communication (mobile phone, MSN, QQ......）

I would rather live in ancient times, at least in ancient times, women only had to think about their husbands and children, and only used weaving and embroidery.

No talent is virtue! Modern women are too frightened and uneasy to live!

Would love to cross!

In the past, I always felt that the ancient times were good, the conditions were natural and honest, because it was said on TV that people's hearts were not ancient and the world was declining. History is written by the victors, and those who survive claim to be right. Now there are more living resources but the natural environment is poor, alas, it's hard to say, but I think it's better to feel happier now.

All good, there is no comparison. It's like Yue Fei and Zhang Fei fighting, which one is powerful.

What's so good about ancient times! Fortunately, rich is the master! But that's for the rich!! Hyundai: Fortunately, everything can be reasoned with! The people can live well! Convenient transportation!

In ancient times, men could marry many daughters-in-law!

Each has its own good, such as travel, in ancient times, you didn't need money, you can go around casually, but it's long, and now the transportation is expensive, and a lot of tickets, but the attractions are well packaged and well-known.

Each has its own good, the weather in ancient times was good, and now the earth is a bit like the earth, but modern times have developed technology, it is easier to satisfy their curiosity, and broaden their horizons.

As a woman, I think it's better to be modern, although there is no real equality between men and women, but there is still a certain status. However, ancient times were a time of true male superiority and inferiority.

I think if I lived directly in ancient times and didn't live in modern times, I might think that ancient times are good.

I think it's a good point for modern times.

Modern good.

But ancient civilizations and cultures cannot be ignored either.

Modern science and technology are developed from ancient times, constantly developing and innovating.

Modern technology was unimaginable to ancient people.

It is now said that in 500 years, it is unimaginable how far technology will develop.

The emperors of ancient times could not enjoy the current food refrigeration, air conditioning, communication and transportation, audio, etc.

But modern people can also enjoy it, and that's the difference. In ancient times, there were no computers, you didn't have a place to go at night, and of course, you had to go to a brothel without saying. You have to buy a meat now, not too much, and you have to wait for the market, if you are in the capital, it's a different story.

In ancient times, the air was good, it was all loess avenues, and you would be killed when it rained, except that you were a rich man. In ancient times, you could take concubines, but if you have internal diseases, it is impossible to open the knife, and there is no anesthetic, soak it slowly, do you still think ancient times are good?

<>1. Information transmission in ancient times: knotting rope records, using beacon smoke to transmit military intelligence, running, and letters. Modern: Email, mobile texting, sending, calling**.

2. Ancient environment: beautiful environment and fresh air. Modern: Serious industrialization, serious environmental pollution.

3. Entertainment in ancient times: playing chess, reading, writing, and composing poetry. Modern: singing, dancing, listening**, playing video games.

Civilization is the product of the development of human society to a certain stage, civilization is marked by the invention of writing, the establishment of the monogamous family and the emergence of classes, is the form of existence and state of existence of human beings or the form of reaching the level of wisdom, and refers to all forms of existence with a high level of culture. Civilization is the concrete embodiment of the ideas and concepts gradually formed by human beings in the process of understanding and transforming the world, as well as the constantly evolving human nature. It is a phenomenon that began to appear after human beings began to live in groups and the specialization of social division of labor appeared, and the prototype of human society was basically formed.

It is a product of a relatively rich material foundation, and it is also a basic attribute of human society.

In terms of absolute standard of living, not to mention China, most countries in the world now, and even some so-called "least developed countries", are more prosperous than any civilization of any era before the 19th century.

Life expectancy is one of the most important indicators of social welfare.

After all, living is the most basic need of people, and life expectancy measures the basic bottom line of a society. In 2018, the average life expectancy was 53 years in the Central African Republic, 54 years in Chad and 58 years in South Sudan.

In comparison, the average life expectancy of a Qing emperor was 53 years. You must know that the emperors of the Qing Dynasty, except for Guangxu, who was poisoned, basically died of illness or old age, and did not die. Excluding Guangxu, who died at the age of 38, the average life expectancy of Qing emperors was less than 55 years.

Compared to the Chinese society of the same period, the emperor naturally enjoyed the best medical conditions and living conditions. At the same time, compared with other dynasties in history, the Qing emperors were relatively self-disciplined and had relatively healthy living habits. In short, the average life expectancy of Qing emperors basically represented the pinnacle of the entire ancient China, barely reaching the level of ordinary people in the most backward countries of modern society.

A more intuitive comparison is the difference in population growth rates.

The statistics of early antiquity are not very reliable due to technical conditions and the large number of hidden populations, so we compare them with those of the late Qing Dynasty. For about half a century from the second year of Yongzheng (1724) to the forty-first year of Qianlong (1776), China was in the middle of the Kangyonggan period, there were no large-scale wars on the mainland, and high-yield grain crops in the United States were popularized.

In this case, the population increased from 100 million to 200 million. In other words, ancient China had the fastest population growth, doubling in half a century. However, over the past half-century, Chad's population has increased nearly fourfold, and Uganda's by about sixfold.

You must know that in traditional societies, people lack contraception, and people do not have the concept of population control (ordinary people still believe that having more children is happier, and often equate population growth with social development and national strength). In this context, the factors limiting population growth are basically disasters such as famine, plague, war, and unnatural deaths due to poverty.

In short, after entering the modern society, the horizontal differences between different countries in the same historical period are much smaller than the vertical differences before and after the modernization of the same country.

In fact, this is not a question of prosperity at all.

You must know that since China's industrialization, "the productive forces created in less than 100 years have been more and greater than all the productive forces created in all previous eras." "If we talk about material abundance and the development of civilization, even if we add up the achievements of all eras in ancient China and multiply it by 10, it is not comparable to contemporary China.

I think it is an insult to modern society to measure modern society by the standards of the ancient "prosperous age".

After all, a society in which "old people have their ends, strong and useful, young people have growth, and widows and loneliness are supported" is already the limit of the imagination of the ancients. They call this society "Datong" and consider it the pinnacle of human society.

However, for us modern people, this is just the bottom line of society. Reaching this standard is only one step towards a "moderately prosperous society".

Maybe the environment is simpler, the purpose of the day is clear, the desire is lower, the cultural atmosphere is better, and more attention is paid to cultivating morality.

I don't know why you think this way, but there was something better in ancient times than it is now. For example, the food must be more primitive. There are not so many industrial additives.

But in general. The impact of backwardness in science and technology in ancient times will far reduce the quality of life. As a result, the average life expectancy of ancient people is simply not comparable with that of today's people.

The sanitary condition is extremely poor, causing the spread of various diseases, pneumonia, plague, smallpox and various diseases. At that time, almost all of them were terminally ill. If you can go back in time, you can indeed enjoy a more natural and green environment.

But you have to pay a corresponding price, far more than you get. People love antiquity because it is far away from us, and when reality is not satisfactory, it becomes the sustenance of that distant place. However, this is not the case in movies and anime.

A big reason why they like ancient things is because it has gimmicks. People tend to be surprised by the unknown, the unfamiliar, and don't value what is around them. Who said that the ancient times were better than the present?

Is primitive society better than modern? Or was feudal society better than it is now?

Whoever says such things is blind. With such great social progress, such rapid development of science and technology, and tremendous changes in all aspects of clothing, food, housing and transportation, which is not better than ancient times?

Of course, modern society also has many shortcomings and many disadvantages. For example, many people are selfish, their individualism is malignantly inflated, wars continue year after year, and environmental pollution is very serious......Wait. In these respects alone, the present is not as good as it was in ancient times.

But, in general, society is still progressing.

That's some of you who are young now, and you are indignant about the current society, and you always feel that others have money, but you don't have money, so you think that ancient times are better than now, because most people in ancient times were very poor, and there were not many rich people, but you must know that the Huang family bullied the common people in ancient times. That's what makes the people can't hold their heads up.

People who say that ancient times were better than the present may think that the morality of the ancients was high, but in fact, society is moving forward, and I think the modern era of science and technology with a high degree of material civilization is better than that of ancient times.

Because the ancients were limited by conditions, modern people are exploring and creating from the perspective of science and technology, just like it is inconceivable to put pure handicrafts such as porcelain and leather silk in the present.

It's not necessarily much better, there are pros and cons, you adapt to the convenience brought by modern high technology to ancient times, but there is no chemical pollution in ancient times, and the environment is good.

Ancient times are really good, there were a lot of excellent people and many great inventions in ancient times.

How do you know that ancient times were better than now, that you lived in ancient times? Or did you communicate with the ancients?
