Elevator

Elevator

          Do you know why elevators are very important these days? Do you know who invented the

elevator? The elevators is a type of vertical transport equipment that efficiently moves people or goods

between floors. It looks like a very small room or a big box which can be found in hospitals, schools,

malls, companies and other buildings. In 1852, Elisha Otis, Invented the first brake for elevators.

With time some people start to make it better. I believe that elevators are very important because it

changed many peoples' lives.

          Elevators are very important these days. Elevators changed a lot of peoples' lives, such as, people

with wheel chairs, pregnant women, elderly, passenger services and more. The elevators' industry is a

good place to invest money in; in fact, the number of people that use elevators has tripled in the past

20 years. Elevators just make life much easier.

          Opponents say that elevators are not the better choice for normal people. These people who argue

against the over use of elevators in every aspect of our lives, believe that people became less active

and thus got lazier whenever the opportunity presented itself, say for an example, the choice between

using the stairs or the elevators. A lot of people nowadays are used to the presence and use of elevators

in every place they go to, to the limit which they only think of the stairs as emergency escapes, and not

a mean of getting from one floor to the other.

            I disagree with the arguing side. It is something personal to use the elevator or not. There are a

lot of needy people who benefit very much from using the elevator. Elevators have a lot of advantages

more than people think they do. Necessity is the mother of invention, that being said, elevators were


invented in the first place to fulfill a need, rather than to be a luxurious option.

          In my opinion, elevators are one of the most important inventions, for the reasons which are

obvious and known to us and the reasons which are not. Elevators helped a lot of people to carry on a

better, healthier, prosperous and easier life. I think that in the future the use and deployment of

elevators will increase dramatically. They will be bigger, faster and safer. And I predict that elevators

are going to replace some of the traditional means of transportation in some aspects, for an example; I

read in an article that scientists and inventors are already studying the application and usability of

elevators in space, deep sea and as transcontinental means of transportation, at least for goods and

merchandise for the near future.
