Today， education is more and more important for people to live a better life. But when it comes to the issue about whether people are now more easier to get educated than before. People's opinion differs from person to person and culture to culture. Some prefer to say that nowadays society is more beneficial for education than in the past, while others may agree that they can learn better in the past than today. On personal level, I prefer the prior one for reasons of applying advanced facility to study and learning diverse knowledge from all over the world.
Recently, the ability of young people to absorb the new knowledge has caused public concern. Fortunately, people find that most of the new generation can study effectively. It is young people's depending on advanced facility that leads to this situation. According to the survey, if a student has a problem when he or she is doing  homework at home. He or she can consult for their teachers by using Emails or a telephones to get the solution. Therefore, we are tempted to ask ourselves: Isn't it easier for us to get educated than in the past? Isn't it more convenient for us to apprehend the knowledge than in the past? Isn't it more effective for us to master a skill than in the past? Obviously nowadays society has advantages in terms of learning. 

The diversity of knowledge comes next only to the importance of learning efficiency. That is, in the past, hardly can people went abroad easily because of inconvenient transportation. But now, as a Chinese student, I can go to America for further study which only costs 2 hours of flight. Learning abroad can help understand different cultures. Meanwhile it can give me more opportunities to be cultivated in different environment which will help me be independent.
In short, from what has been discussed above, we may safely draw the conclusion that peoples are now more easier to be educated than in the past. Only in today,can we get educated efficiently and expand our knowledge.
