It is noticeable that teachers' salaries, furniture and equipment, and insurance showed an ascending trend, while other workers' salaries and resources witnessed a descending trend.

Writing Feedback / A person's worth VS old-fashioned value : IELTS WRITNG TASK 2 [2]

A person's worth nowadays seems to be judged according to social status and material possessions. Old-fashioned values, such as honour, kindness and trust, no longer seem important.

Money Became the Measure of Everything

It is inevitable that some people strongly consider more social conditions and worldly goods rather than good characters such as trust and honor when they meet others today. In this case, personally, I agree with this notion and will explain with several relevant examples in this essay.

Firstly, one major issue is perhaps caused by lacking in old-fashioned values due to money-oriented attitude. In the recent days, people tend to take social qualities into account ranging from how much they have money, cars, and homes to even jet planes. This affects their pivotal decision regarding their future like a marriage. In Indonesia, for example, person wanting to marry will look and choose wisely her bridegroom by considering at how much money and homes. Last information, The Jakarta Post - an English of Newspaper, reveals that a young female get married an older man who had 3 cars and 5 houses. By this meaning that the bride has avoided the important values such as good looking, trust and kindness because she prefer to person who has valuable possessions.

Turning to another reason, having a great status is truly respected more rather than good personalities in measuring a person's worth. This results in their considerations in political election, for instance, where the majority of people believe more in candidates who have high social status like elite-generating candidate such as police compared to those who have a moral credibility in society as well as leadership like imam, a person leading people in mosque. It seems that people prefer modern-statues value to old-fashioned value.

Take everything into account, people living in modern world objectively judge measure others using the number of material possession and the social statues.
