Examples Of Gifts To America

Improved Essays
America has given a lot of gifts to me. One of the most obvious is life. If it weren’t for doctors, hospitals, and everything else I wouldn’t be here. When I was born I had a heart murmur. I had to go through lots of tests to see if my heart could work by itself. Eventually the hole closed and I was completely fine afterwards but if it weren’t for medical help it would have probably been different. About two years ago I broke my arm while playing soccer. I tore a ligament and a muscle tendon. To this day it still hasn’t healed and hurts just about everyday. My doctor said it would heal and that I don’t need surgery.

Technology has come very far since it first started. Computers, cellphones, and many more devices are things that we use on a day to day basis. To me the internet is insane!

The last gift America has given to me is education. If I lived in countries like Haiti or Ethiopia I wouldn’t have all of the opportunities that I have as I do when I live here. I plan to go to college and become a doctor. I love helping people and that would be a great job for me. That sums up some of the greatest gifts America has given to me and hopefully there are more to

    Its a well known fact that technology is becoming more embodied in our lives. The Pew Internet and American Life Project released a study stating the number of adults that own cellphones, laptops or tablets is rising.

    Greatest difference (1900 - 2000) Just imagine not having the internet to look things up. Just think about what life would be like without our phones. It would not be the same without all this technology we have today, but in the 1900s, this was the reality. I believe technology is, by far, the biggest change from the 1900s to now.…

    America’s gifts to my generation are freedom, peace, and education. Each of these mean everything to me. For example, without freedom, we could be enslaved people, or farmers, or any other lower-class workers. Another example is peace.

    One of the biggest innovations in technology overtime has been the computer, which is still advancing today. Long ago, computers were the size of rooms, they took up space from the floor to the ceiling, which were large an unrealistic amounts of space for user compatibility. They transitioned to smaller “box” looking machines complete with screens for display, which is what we now look at as the “dinosaur” computers compared to today’s technology. Now, computers are available in desktop and laptop versions, even cellphones today are mini computers. Each are sold in a much slimmer, smaller, user-friendly size.…
