　　Do you agree or disagree：young people today are more likely to give time and effort to improve the world than young people were in the past.

　　Nowadays people are having conflicting views about whether young people today are more likely to give time and effort to improve the world than young people were in the past. Some people hold that young people today, due to a decline of moral value, do not care about making the world a better place. However, in my point of view, young people today are, indeed, more likely to give time to improving the world.

　　Firstly, thanks to the development of science and technology, young people today are able to receive more information about world's current situation and make a sound individual decision to help those in need. It is hardly imaginable if people live, so to say, fifty years ago. For example, one of my friends is currently working in UN Volunteer, a subsidiary branch of UN in charge of organizing international volunteer project. She told me that every year, tens of thousands of young applicants are submitting their interest in going to poor places and help those in need, and most of them get their information about UN Volunteer projects via their webpage. The technological development of our world does enable young people to give more time to making the world a better place.

　　Secondly, today's educational system has a stronger emphasis on students' extracurricular activities, such volunteering work, entrepreneurial projects. Take China as an example. Decades ago university curriculum had a stronger emphasis on students' intellectual ability, such as calculation and interpretation. Recently experts and country administrators start to realize that an education of making children mentally better shaped is the education most justified. Thus, China's educational quality improves and the whole society evaluates students in various ways and encourages them to help others. In this way, young people today are more likely to give time to helping other people.

　　Admittedly, there are some merits in the opposite argument - young people today are not doing as well as people in the past. The supporters of this argument notice that due to a moral decline and money-centered lifestyle, young people today are more likely to be morally eroded, as is shown in numerous TV programs. However, I argue that they just exaggerate the darkness too much. More young people today are trying their best to extend a hand to other people.

　　All in all, I agree with the statement that young people today are more likely to give time and effort to improve the world than young people were in the past.
