Compare and contrast

There are a lot of similarities and differences between the life now and in the past. My essay is about comparing and contrasting the life in the UAE now and 40 years ago.

There are many similarities. Firstly the weather is still hot and humid the same as in the past and many people are trying to survive and to feel good. Secondly the religion is Islam and has never changed. After that the traditional dress is almost the same as dishdasha and guttra and it helps them a lot to reflect the sun and to keep the heat away. Finally football is still the favorite sport for most of the people.

There are so many differences. Firstly the population has tripled in the past 40 years. Second they have modern transportation such as trains and fast cars. After that, the buildings have become bigger and taller than the old buildings. Finally the roads are wider and much longer and made of asphalt.

Some people like the old life and the others love the modern life but I prefer the modern life because it makes my life easy, busy and with the latest technology.
