Writing task 2 # Cultural Invasion

Question Uncomplete

Write 250 words on the following topic, give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.
In modern days people are heavily influenced by other cultures. Is this cultural invasion a positive development or a negative development?

Sample Answer

In these modern times when the world has become so united and accepting to one another it baffles me how some individuals still view accepting different cultures and customs as a threat. Most of the modern cities are filled with people from different backgrounds and various corners of the earth. If we take a tradition from a different culture and make it our own it does not do any harm.

Locals have become more accepting nowadays and it gives them a chance to learn something new about a culture that is not their own. I have seen people who have got so intrigued by different customs and traditions that they ended up visiting the land of their origin to find out how it is originally celebrated there.

Chinese New Year is one such event where people from all walks of life come together to celebrate a new year which is not even their own. Toronto, New York, London, Paris and all other major cities in the world have a place called Chinatown. People of Chinese origin have moved and settled there and they along with the local population celebrate the festival and enjoy the festivities. It is a very welcoming sign that modern day societies are so welcoming to one another’s customs.

There are some individuals in the society who view everything that is not their own as a threat to their culture. These pupils fail to realize that as a society we are continuously evolving and any change that takes us towards a more united and well informed world is a step in the right direction.

Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant example from your own knowledge or experience.
Write at least 250 words.

Sample Answer :

Some educationists believe that it is preferable for kids to start learning a foreign language at an early age rather than secondary school. This essay will consider both the views and define why taking a top priority of studying a alien language at primary school is enormously helpful with examples.

First and foremost, mixture of languages is a major downfall when young ones are encouraged to take up a second language at school. As the young brain is not completely developed to connect out the rules of languages, there is a great possibility that they will mix words from different dialects. Its often observed that children in secondary schools can address the given problem, as opposed to youths in primary schools. Secondly, academic achievements are often affected because mastering a new language, which typically includes complicated vocabularies and terminologies, forces the children from secondary school to devote more time on it than the main stream subjects.Children fancy learning an overseas language .So kids are found to pick up phrases and words of different languages promptly while having fun. This accounts for children being better at primary school as opposed to secondary school in learning a new language.

In conclusion, in my opinion with the consideration of positives being incredibly comfortable and more attractive they eclipse the discussed inconveniences.

The expansion of Internet and prevalence of globalization have led to new opportunities across the globe. In the current economic climate, student and worker mobility have become an increasing trend.

It often widens the perspective of an individual and lets them know more about the world in whole.

Overall, one can reduce the financial disadvantages with careful planning. Even more, knowing a new language and experiencing a new culture opens up a new perspective on the individuals.

IELTS Essay #global language

IELTS Writing Essay

Do the advantages of having English as a global language outweigh the disadvantages?

Sample Answer:

Due to the colonization done by the British, more than half of the world started speaking English language and it has surely helped in uniting the world on a global platform. I would say the advantages of English as a global language outranks its disadvantages as a global language.

In today’s world, when people are traveling around the world for leisure, studies, work and medical treatment, understanding English language comes to an aid. It is the world’s only language which is widely spoken and understood. Standardization of the process, be it documents, maps, road signs, food menu, public transport etc. was required for the convenience of the people, this is where a universally spoken language comes handy…. ergo English. Speaking a common language in a foreign country helps you in easily adapting in a new environment, as you can relatively easily make friends, learn about the culture, find job, visit places. For a two way communication to happen successfully both the parties need to be able to understand each other and respond accordingly and this is where the language plays its crucial part of building a communication bridge.

If you are moving abroad to a new country for higher studies, you always tend to look for an English speaking country, less you are equally fluent in reading, writing, and speaking the other language like German, Cantonese, French or Russian. World’s major countries like United States of America, Russia, United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, and New Zealand are all English speaking countries, ergo moving to these countries for the purpose of work or relocating is relatively easier for a person who comes from an English moving country.
There are hardly any disadvantages that I can think of, considering English as a global language, barring just one that you get so engrossed in learning and communicating in English language that you lose touch with your own language and roots. Language is an integral part of the culture and it is what links you to it and it is what you pass on to your future generation.

I would like to conclude with the statement that English has truly become a global language which is playing a vital role in uniting the world and its advantages surely outweigh the disadvantages. (372 Words)
