Kunokukhubazeka okuthile abantu abathembele ezihlalweni ezinamasondo ukuze baqhubeke nempilo yabo. Ngakho-ke, ingabe kwanele ngabantu abakhubazekile ukuba babe nesihlalo esinamasondo ukuze basekele ukuphila kwabo? Abahlinzeki bezihlalo zabakhubazekile zikagesi baseChina bathi sonke siyazi ukuthi ukuba nesihlalo esinamasondo akwanele ukuthi abantu okumele basebenzise izihlalo ezisebenza ngogesi ukuze baphile impilo ephezulu. Laba bantu badinga izinto eziningi ukuze baphile izinga eliphezulu lempilo. Kulesi sihloko esifushane, sizoxoxa nakanjani ngomunye wabo, ama-wheelchair ramps, kanye nesizinda sabo.

Izihlalo ezinamasondo zibaluleke kakhulu mayelana nokufinyeleleka. Isibonelo, uma ingekho irempu yesihlalo esinamasondo eduze kwezitebhisi eziya enxanxatheleni yezitolo, ithiyetha yamamuvi noma ithiyetha, lezi zindawo ngeke zibafanele laba bantu. Abahlinzeki bezihlalo zabakhubazekile baseShayina bathi abantu abasebenzisa izihlalo ezinamasondo mancane amathuba okuthi basizakale ngalezi zindawo.

Vumela ukuthinta kafushane umlando wamasondo ahamba ngogesi. Umthengisi wesihlalo esinamasondo sikagesi wase-China uthe nakuba ingekho imininingwane eqondile ngale ndaba, kucatshangwa ukuthi amarempu aqathaniswa nezindawo ezihamba ngezihlalo zabakhubazekile zikagesi ezisetshenziswa namuhla zasetshenziswa ekwakhiweni kwamaPiramidi aseGibhithe. Ngaphezu kwalokho, kunamahemuhemu okuthi amaGreki Asendulo ayesebenzisa ama-ramps ukudlulisa imikhumbi phezu komhlaba.

Umhlinzeki wesihlalo esinamasondo sikagesi wase-China uthe empeleni kutholwe ophenyweni lokuthi amarempu ezihlalo ezinamasondo asetshenziswa eChina ngo-525 BC. Ekuqaleni kwawo-1900, kwasetshenziswa irempu eGrand Central Station eDolobheni laseNew York, kodwa le rempu yayisetshenziswa ngokuyinhloko ukuletha imithwalo yabagibeli. Umhlinzeki wesihlalo esinamasondo sikagesi wase-China uthe Ngemva kokuphothulwa kweMpi Yezwe Yesibili, abantu baqala ukuqonda ukubaluleka kokutholakala komzila. Abahlinzeki bezihlalo zabakhubazekile zikagesi baseChina bathi Kule minyaka, isidingo samasondo esihamba ngogesi sinyukile njengoba ochwepheshe abambalwa bephoqelekile ukusebenzisa izihlalo ezinamasondo zikagesi. Umhlinzeki wesihlalo esinamasondo sikagesi waseChina uthe Maphakathi nawo-1900, abantu baqala ukuphakamisa ukuthi izindawo zomphakathi kufanele zitholakale kakhulu. Ekugcineni, ngasekupheleni kweminyaka yawo-1900, uMthetho WaseMelika Abakhubazekile waqala ukusebenza futhi nemigwaqo yezihlalo zabakhubazekile yagcina isiyinto evamile.
