Sample 1:
Some people feel that cultural traditions are ruined when people use them to make money from tourists. Others claim that using these traditions as money-making ventures is the only way to save them. In my opinion, both views are true to a certain extent.
To begin with, many traditional customs are modified for commercialization, and end up losing their originality and value. For example, Vietnamese traditional dances such as the lion dance, which were traditionally performed only by martial artists during special occasions, are now often poorly performed by amateurs at tourist sites across the country. Such changes not only give foreign visitors a false impression but can also make the dance less meaningful to the local people. Also, many traditionally sacred sites are heavily damaged by the irresponsible behaviors of tourists. For instance, a well-known Youtuber named Logan Paul recently visited Japan and filmed himself dumping a bag of coins into a sacred well, where people often drop coins for luck, and did permanent damage to one of Japan’s most famous iconic traditions.
On the other hand, there are several reasons why monetizing from cultural traditions is the only way to protect them. First, the revenue could be used for the preservation of such traditions. For example, many people in Bat Trang village in Vietnam make their living from selling traditional ceramic products, and thus are able to continue one of the oldest traditions in Vietnam. Second, by putting cultural traditions on public display, the government could heighten people’s awareness of preserving these traditions. For instance, the Vietnamese government has built several museums around the country that solely exhibit examples of ethnic minority cultures in an attempt to protect cultural values without affecting the lives of these ethnic people, yet successfully gathering lots of public attention and support.
In conclusion, using cultural traditions as money-making attractions has both positive and negative impacts on the preservation of such traditions.
Sample 2:
Some individuals argue that commercializing cultural traditions for profit tarnishes their authenticity and cultural significance, while others assert that monetizing these traditions is essential for their survival. I believe that both viewpoints hold merit to a certain degree.
To commence, there is a concern that the pursuit of profit can lead to the distortion and loss of cultural traditions. Frequently, when traditions are adapted to cater to tourists, they may undergo changes that compromise their originality and cultural value. For instance, traditional dances like the Vietnamese lion dance, which were historically performed exclusively by skilled martial artists during special occasions, are now often poorly executed by amateurs at tourist sites, eroding their authenticity and meaning. Additionally, some sacred sites suffer damage due to irresponsible tourist behaviors, endangering their cultural significance. For instance, the actions of a well-known YouTuber named Logan Paul, who desecrated a sacred well in Japan, have permanently harmed one of the country's iconic traditions.
Conversely, there are compelling reasons why capitalizing on cultural traditions is seen as the only way to safeguard them. Firstly, the revenue generated from such activities can be channeled back into the preservation of these traditions. For example, many residents of Bat Trang village in Vietnam make a livelihood by producing and selling traditional ceramic products, enabling them to carry on one of Vietnam's oldest traditions. Secondly, by showcasing cultural traditions in public venues and exhibitions, governments can raise awareness and garner support for their preservation. The Vietnamese government, for instance, has established museums across the country dedicated to exhibiting examples of ethnic minority cultures, successfully garnering public attention and support while respecting the lives of these ethnic communities.
In conclusion, utilizing cultural traditions as profit-generating attractions has both positive and negative repercussions for their preservation.
Sample 3:
Capitalizing on local cultural customs in order to appeal to tourists has always been a heated topic as many protest the effects this development might have on their cultural heritage. Personally, I disagree with the practice as I do not think they can honestly preserve the culture and heritage of local groups, albeit some exceptions to minority culture should be made.
As a point of consideration, when tourists invest in local cultural traditions, these traditions become a production that must be put on in order to please these tourists, leading to the loss of authenticity over time. Tourism places unnecessary stress on local customs, for they must appeal to tourists for their ideas about the culture and fulfill this expectation. Through a gradual process of change, there might not be any semblance of the old tradition left. For instance, many tourist destinations in East Asia have had to transform their food and services to fit Western taste, and as such, lose the authenticity that pulled people towards them in the first place.
On the other hand, exceptions can nonetheless be made when it comes to displaced natives living on reservations. These people have been forced off their lands in the past, and often forced to adapt to colonizers, and their cultures often have been repressed in the past to the extent that it may be nearly extinct. In these situations, these once sacred and important cultural rituals can only be kept alive by the interest of tourists. This is why many minority people actively welcome visitors to explore their culture and customs as a way to preserve them.
On the whole, I argue that tourism has had a negative effect on local cultures since the local cultures have had to change to something they are not; nonetheless, I believe that some exceptions should be made to minority cultures that need to be explored in order to be preserved.
Sample 4:
That traditional cultures are now commercialized for tourism and are vandalized in the process has been a concern for many. Alternative voices, in avocation for economic pursuit, claim commercial application to be the sole channel that preserves long-standing practices. The following essay aims to analyze both perspectives and from it giving support for the latter view.
On the prior side, consequences like culture mispresentation from having to cater to exterior preferences is evidently a justifiable fear. Under economic influences, deep-rooted practices could be morphed towards more entertaining versions of themselves, regardless of what is truly meaningful to the natives or how foul such deviations might be perceived. In reality, Hollywood’s interpretation of prevalent Eastern ways of life has constantly received backlash for its priority of glamourous visuals over true depictions, thus enforcing stereotype imposed by visiting foreigners upon a whole community across generations and becoming the basis for opposition.
Yet aside such risk, many practices would have become extinct had there not been any assistance of public exposure through commerce. It is needless to say that regardless of any culture’s distinguished trait, their stance against modern customs’ dominance has proven unsustainable. As such, commercial demands, and along with them, the financial rewards of exhibiting unique historical undertakings, undoubtedly play significant roles in encouraging them being passed down to later generations rather than withering away. Simply speaking, money upkeeps the tradition.
In conclusion, efforts to save corroding cultures via commercial applications spark debate of its true efficacy. While supporting it may sustain the way of life against modernization, over-reliance on it could be detrimental to the subject of focus.
Sample 5:
The preservation of cultural traditions is a matter of great importance and has sparked a debate regarding whether the monetization of them leads to their destruction or serves as the only way to safeguard these valuable aspects of heritage. This essay will examine both perspectives and argue in favour of the opinion that cultural traditions may be jeopardized when they are exploited for commercial gain.
On the one hand, proponents of using cultural traditions as money-making attractions argue that this approach provides a viable means to preserve and safeguard these customs in an increasingly globalized and commercialized world. Economic benefits generated from cultural tourism can contribute to the conservation and restoration of cultural sites and artefacts, ensuring their longevity for future generations. For example, entrance fees to historical monuments can fund restoration projects and maintenance, preventing the decay and degradation of these cultural treasures. Moreover, financial support from tourism revenue may enable local communities to invest in educational initiatives and cultural programmes, fostering a sense of pride and awareness about their heritage.
On the other hand, many individuals strongly believe that commercially utilizing cultural traditions puts these cherished practices and customs at risk of losing their authenticity and significance. When cultural elements are commodified for the sake of tourism or entertainment, there is a tendency to modify or sensationalize them to appeal to a broader audience. As a result, the essence and deeper meanings of these traditions may become diluted or distorted, eroding their authenticity and cultural value. For instance, traditional rituals and ceremonies performed as mere spectacles for tourists may lose their spiritual significance, leading to a loss of respect for these once-sacred practices. Moreover, the true traditional aspects of an area may be diluted and contaminated with the presence of tourists from many different areas of the world as they all bring their own traditions and cultural aspects with them.
In my opinion, the commercialisation of traditions indeed puts them in danger. So rather than exploiting cultural traditions solely for monetary gain, ensuring their preservation and value should get more priority.
In conclusion, the debate over using cultural traditions as money-making attractions raises valid concerns about the potential erosion of their authenticity. I believe that authorities should make sure that the traditions and cultures of a nation do not diminish for the sake of foreign remittance.
Sample 6:
No one can deny that a trip to a remote destination away from one’s everyday life and culture is an exciting experience for the traveler, but its negative impact on the local culture and traditions cannot be ignored.
In many places, cultural traditions are destroyed because they are being commercialized for profits. For example, the moment a tourist sets foot in a place of attraction, he is always first welcomed by a crowd of peddlers or a line of shops selling souvenirs and handicrafts that are often fake and overpriced. What is more, in the peak tourist seasons, there are just so many visitors that even the remotest island turns into a noisy market. Those who are expecting a quiet cultural journey may finally end up seeing the same hustle and bustle in a modern city.
There are, however, arguments for setting up a money – making attractions in a tourist area. We cannot afford to renovate historical buildings if they are not visited at a price. If traditional skills and lifestyles were not presented to visitors in an impressive way, they might soon be forgotten. For many parts of the world, tourism has become a major source of income and helps to save the local culture from dying out.
We should find the right balance between tourism development and cultural protection, and I believe the government has a very important role to play here. In my own country, for example, many tourist cities have made effective development plans to successfully attract large numbers of visitors while still preserving their distinct cultural traditions.
Sample 7:
Some believe it is detrimental for cultural traditions if they are turned into a cash machine for tourism, while others think the opposite. This essay will look at both of these viewpoints to clarify the importance of cultural commercialization in retaining traditions and then will suggest protective measures in limiting the downside.
It is negative in some ways for local cultural traditions when they are used to develop tourism. First, the attraction of cultural uniqueness is immeasurable when it magnets thousands, and even millions of people the world over to come and experience new ways of life. The visitors will bring with them their own cultures and needs which should be accommodated. This will somehow lead to excessive cultural integration which may undermine or disrupt the local tradition. Second, the economic development allows local people to change their jobs and improve their living conditions, so the local may build concrete houses to replace cottages and make souvenirs instead of doing farm work. The traditional lifestyle and culture attached to the old village and farming may, therefore, diminish.
However, highlighting cultural traditions is also necessary in keeping them alive. Indeed, when a feature of tradition is identified as appealing, introducing it to tourists is a good way to emphasize its value and arouse the awareness of cultural protection in the local people. For example, when Hue court music, the Vietnamese royal music, is performed for tourists on boats on Huong river, people will start to fear that one day the music may disappear and thus take actions to conserve it. Moreover, more records will be kept about such tradition through publications of all kinds ranging from tour information on leaflets or travel blogs, to videos of real cultural experiences of tourists, and cultural or tourism books. These are safe houses to prevent these traditions from losing in part or disappearing altogether.
In conclusion, it is the economic development of the tourist spots that may harm the local culture rather than the emphasis on cultural traditions in attracting visitors. However, when introducing local culture to travelers, people need to keep a certain separation of the tourist site from the local community to avoid too much cultural integration and constantly organize cultural conservation programs to protect their origin and uniqueness.
Sample 8:
Some say cultural traditions are destroyed when used as money-making attractions for tourists. Others say this is the only way to save such traditions. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
In recent years travelling has increased rapidly. Some groups of people believe that promoting tourism way reduces traditional culture. However, the selling token is such a way to save traditions. In my perspective, I will discuss both views in the upcoming paragraph.
On the one hand, promotion can bring many benefits to people and the government. The first and foremost view is that when travellers visit any historical nation, there are generated business opportunities for local and government. Tourism is the best key to any economy. It boosts people’s lifestyles. For example, tourists buy local art to learn about the culture if they visit a local place.
On the other hand, money-making is disadvantageous for culture. If profit is the main purpose, then the primary goal and culture will be changed over time. In other words, if workers and traditional artists create a product only to attract visitors and gain money, then it will be affected. Secondly, this method also negatively impacts visitors, particularly foreign visitors, who never recommend that place or product after an incredible experience.
To sum up and offer my position, I support the former view because tourism is the best way to promote culture, and it is economically beneficial. However, it is weakened by the wrong way it is done.
Sample 9:
Many people today are against using cultural tradition as a source of income to target tourists. In contrast, others agree that it is a good idea as that will preserve the tradition that can be passed on to the next generation. Some advocate free cultural traditions for tourists, which is justified. I am one of them, and in this essay, I will try to explain why I think concerns about free cultural tradition have great merit.
First of all, cultural traditions have been around from time immemorial, it is the culture laid by the ancestors, and they are happy to showcase their tradition to foreigners. For instance, the new yam cultural festival, where farmers will bring in their harvest and the farmer that harvested the most giant yam will be honoured by other farmers. This honour is done by local musicians, where metals and wood are used as musical instruments. Also, the fishing festival held towards the end of every year attracts tourists from different parts of the globe to watch the festival free of charge.
Secondly, not every tourist can afford to pay the cultural tradition fees, after spending more on travelling expenses, coupled with hotel accommodation and feeding expenses, if they are charged for cultural tradition, it will discourage them from coming hence the tourist rates of the visit will drastically be dropped.
Technology is increasing, new gadgets are being produced, and one can watch any event from the comfort of his home. Hence cultural tradition should be made accessible, enticing tourists to always want a real view of the tradition rather than watching online.
To conclude, instead of paying cultural fees by tourists, farm products and local cuisines should be made available for tourists to buy and take back home, which will, in turn, boost the economy as well as encourage the indigene to hold their culture in high esteem and preserved it for the future generation.
Sample 10:
Opinions differ as to whether tourism fosters or undermines cultures and customs. While to a certain extent tourism brings traditions to a wider audience, I would argue that it does more harm than good.
Mass tourism, with huge investments diverted into development, advertising and propagation, has made indigenous customs, several of which were formerly alien and unpopular, known to people around the world. Once a small local festival that were formerly restricted to only tribal peoples, the Cong Chieng carnival in the middle part of Vietnam has greatly emerged to become a tourist trap, with influxes of Vietnamese and foreigners flocking to the place every year. Nevertheless, I believe such popularity is just superficial. A custom known by a lot of people does not necessarily mean a well-preserved one.
All too often, tourism brings in its wake cultural assimilation. It is not rare to see tribal people, adults and children alike, get rid of their traditional attires for modern, Westernised ones worn by tourists. Many hotels, resorts and spas have also been erected every year, encroaching on the areas where there once were villages, altars and ritual meetings. Additionally, the disgusting hands of tourism moguls have reached out to even the remotest areas, tempting local people into working for them with promises of higher wage rates and a better life. As a consequence, the number of ethnic people has greatly shrunk in recent years, with many ethnic minorities being declared non-existent.
In conclusion, my firm conviction is that profit-oriented tourism, despite the fact that it may bring customs to more people, is a cultural catastrophe.
Sample 11:
It is true that many people argue that cultural traditions will only survive if they are commercially packaged for the tourist market. While this may be the case, I agree with the opposing view that such packaging inevitably leads to the death of those traditions.
On the one hand, globalisation is resulting in socio-economic changes which are destroying traditional ways of life. It is not always possible to preserve cultural traditions in the face of these changes. The changes affect traditional cultures in many ways. For example, folk songs and other genres of music such as American blues reflect a way of life which is disappearing, based on agricultural work in the fields. Without the organisation of music concerts aimed at tourists, this artistic musical heritage will almost certainly be lost, and there will be nobody to perform the traditional music and dances associated with it.
On the other hand, I agree with those who believe that the commercialisation of traditional cultures aimed at tourists will not save those cultures. Firstly, culture becomes meaningless when it is something which is presented to visitors simply to make money. Tourists, for instance, may want to try local cuisine in a restaurant which follows a traditional recipe, but it will not be eaten in the authentic surroundings of the home or served to accompany a traditional ceremony.
Secondly, many traditional cultures retain their vitality despite globalisation. Carnival in Brazil, for instance, is performed and watched mainly by local people, even though television and the tourist industry exploit it as a source of revenue.
In conclusion, I agree with the view that when a culture can only survive by turning itself into a money-making attraction, then that culture is already destroyed. All that remains is a spectacle for tourists.
Sample 12:
It is irrefutable that cultural traditions attract tourists from all over the world and develop local economy. Some individuals are of the opinion that these may be destroyed if they are modified to attract tourists. Others, however, hold the view that if we don’t use them for tourism, they will die. In the following paragraphs, I shall discuss both sides of the argument.
We have to make these cultural traditions alluring for tourists because we need tourists. Firstly, tourism boosts our economy and secondly, we get a chance to spread our culture to different countries. If our artists and artisans do not earn money from their art, which depicts our culture and tradition, then this art will die off and we’ll only be the losers.
Tourism is the backbone of any country’s economy, and every country makes an effort to attract tourists. Many people depend on tourism for their livelihood. People in the food industry, hotel industry and transport industry depend on tourism. Presentation is very important to attract visitors and to present nicely, some change is inevitable.
On the other hand, when cultural traditions are used as money-making attractions, they lose their original features. Sometimes it makes cultural traditions disappear altogether. However, I believe that culture and tradition are deep rooted and minor superficial changes cannot harm them in any way. Change is the law of nature and all we should look into is that the changes are made with caution to retain the inherent elements of culture.
To put it in a nutshell, I pen down saying that, to save cultural traditions we need to make some changes to make them alluring to the tourist of today. If we don’t do so we’ll lose our cultural traditions altogether and we’ll lose our tourists also.

CÂU HỎI HOT CÙNG CHỦ ĐỀ
Lời giải
Sample 1:
Travelling abroad is becoming more affordable than ever before, and many nations are implementing new approaches to attract more tourists. Although there are still drawbacks of international travel, I think its values are more significant.
On the one hand, the downsides of welcoming foreign visitors are varied. First, the local environment can be adversely affected due to facility and infrastructural development. For example, in Vietnam, many tourism companies are permitted to chop down a great area of forests to construct modern commodities such as hotels and golf courses, exerting dire consequences on natural habitats. As for the countries that play host to international tourists, the rise in costs of living may lay much pressure on local people and be a detriment to domestic travel. This is because the growth in the number of tourists from abroad would encourage the costs of hotel rooms and other services to increase. People in the neighborhood and domestic visitors would suffer in comparison.
On the other hand, I suppose the benefits of international travel would eclipse those analyzed disadvantages. First, the regional economy can enormously benefit from the burgeoning tourism industry as more occupations will be created to accommodate the needs of tourists. Local people can have more job opportunities in hotels or restaurants and therefore earn more money to improve their living standards. Second, the increased number of foreign people coming to visit another country would evidently enhance tourism industries, contributing greatly to the wealth of that country. If tourists enjoy their trips, they will recommend the destination to their friends or perhaps they will come back in the future.
In conclusion, it appears to me that the merits of international tourism are more notable than its drawbacks.
Sample 2:
In the modern era, international travel has become increasingly accessible and affordable, with many countries opening their doors to welcome tourists from around the world. While this trend brings both benefits and drawbacks to the tourism industry, I firmly believe that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
On the positive side, the tourism sector plays a pivotal role in boosting the economies of host countries. With an influx of tourists, there is a surge in demand for various services, such as accommodations, transportation, and restaurants, leading to job creation for the local population. Furthermore, the growth of tourism also stimulates other related industries, generating additional income and opportunities for the nation. Moreover, international travel offers an unparalleled opportunity for cultural exchange. Tourists have the chance to immerse themselves in diverse cultures, experience different traditions, and broaden their perspectives, fostering mutual understanding and global harmony. Additionally, tourism serves as a means of relaxation and rejuvenation for travelers. This respite from daily routines can be highly beneficial to mental well-being, allowing individuals to return to their responsibilities with renewed energy and motivation.
However, it is essential to acknowledge the potential downsides of the booming tourism industry. One significant concern is its impact on the environment. As tourist numbers increase, so does the strain on natural resources and ecosystems. Overdevelopment and unsustainable practices may lead to habitat destruction, pollution, and the endangerment of local flora and fauna. Another drawback of international travel is the potential for an increase in criminal activities. Tourists, often carrying money and valuable possessions, can become targets for theft and scams in unfamiliar surroundings.
In conclusion, while international travel has its downsides, the advantages it brings to the economy, cultural exchange, and personal well-being outweigh the disadvantages. Governments and stakeholders in the tourism industry must collaborate to strike a balance between growth and sustainability, fostering a responsible and enjoyable travel experience for all. By addressing the challenges and harnessing the benefits, we can ensure that international travel continues to enrich our lives and strengthen global connections.
Sample 3:
Going on foreign holidays has become increasingly affordable these days, prompting some countries to seize the opportunity and embrace the rise of tourism. Although this trend may present certain challenges, I believe the benefits far outweigh them.
Admittedly, overtourism may disrupt the lives of locals, due to increased traffic and overcrowded venues prioritizing big spenders from abroad. A sudden or prolonged influx of foreign tourists can result in traffic congestion and a rise in the cost of living, as has been observed in certain famed cities like Paris or Venice. In addition, increased demand can stress transportation systems and waste management facilities, causing their eventual deterioration. However, such complications can be mitigated by substantial revenues gained from tourism-adjacent sectors. Development in this industry creates job opportunities and higher incomes, helping locals afford their living expenses. The additional government tax revenue can also be spent on improving public facilities and enhancing residents’ quality of life.
Beyond that, the merits of welcoming international tourists can also be observed from a cultural standpoint. One of them is that direct contact between people from various cultures can foster mutual understanding and appreciation for different ways of life. Deeper insight into the history and traditions of their destinations improves tourists’ social awareness and potentially alleviates any existing prejudices. Tourism can also contribute to the preservation of cultural heritage thanks to earnings from entrance fees and related services. One prime example is Hoi An Ancient Town in Vietnam, where restoration projects have been directly funded by tourism, maintaining the authenticity and architectural integrity of the centuries-old buildings within.
In conclusion, I contend that the potential adverse implications of increased international visitors can be compensated for by the additional income they bring. Moreover, international tourism is advantageous overall because it facilitates cultural exchange and the conservation of historical sites.
Sample 4:
More inexpensive methods of travelling internationally have allowed countries to open their borders to international tourists, which has led to intense debate about the merits and failings of this trend. Personally, I believe that increased global tourism has done more harm than good, for it has improved economies at the cost of cultures’ individuality.
On the one hand, one could argue that tourism brings in significant revenue and can thus aid economic development. Tourists when visiting other countries spend a huge amount of money on hotels, food, and shopping, thereby funding small businesses and supporting jobs. For example, the hospitality sector, particularly in locales such as the Mediterranean, brings in millions of euros a year. Tourism here serves as a vital source of revenue and could be viewed to be hugely beneficial for job creations and public services in these areas.
On the other hand, mass travel may often erode the very culture it seeks to showcase to the world. This is because the tourism companies who enter a new market might start building hotels and other services that end up pushing smaller, local businesses out of the said market, until very little of the “authentic experience” remains. For instance, many cities in Southeast Asia, such as Sapa and Phuket, could be said to have lost their uniqueness and instead have become replicas of other tourist towns. Over time, these cities are likely to lose their charm and perhaps also their visitors.
Overall, I argue that the economic effects of tourism do not outweigh the loss of culture, and as such, I believe that increased international tourism has been on the whole undesirable.
Sample 5:
Many countries encourage the development of international tourism because of its advantages. I think that international tourism has both pros and cons.
International tourism brings economic and cultural benefits to the host country. Firstly, international tourism has become the backbone of many economies in the world. For example, tourism provides job opportunities for local people to work in restaurants or hotels. Otherwise, many local residents converted their homes to hostels so that the tourists could stay as paying guests. Secondly, the development of tourism can promote the local culture to the rest of the world. Foreign travellers might learn about the uniqueness of the local culture and share their cultural experiences once they return home, arousing curiosity about the country among their families and friends.
However, international tourism can be associated with environmental damage and the loss of the local culture. In many countries, tourists have been prohibited from visiting particular places such as mountains or islands as the natural environment is seriously threatened by too many visitors. Tourists often litter the place by throwing plastic products, and the construction of tourism infrastructure also polluted the surroundings. Moreover, local culture may be lost when historical sites can be replaced by modern buildings such as hotels, or traditional jobs, for example farming, are dying out as local people are forced to work in the tourism industry for higher pay.
In conclusion, the environmental and cultural disadvantages of international tourism should be recognised. Provided that governments promote tourism in a more sustainable way such as ecotourism or cultural tourism, I think that the advantages are stronger.
Sample 6:
In an age where international travel is more affordable and countries are welcoming an ever-growing number of tourists, it is pivotal to assess whether the benefits of this increased tourism surpass its drawbacks, especially considering the context of Vietnam.
Proponents of tourism argue that it brings significant economic benefits, a standpoint that holds considerable merit. In Vietnam, for example, the influx of tourists has been a major economic driver, creating jobs and stimulating local businesses. Towns like Hoi An have transformed economically, with local crafts and culinary experiences being marketed to visitors. However, this economic upturn is often accompanied by a rise in living costs and over-commercialization, which can erode the local culture and quality of life. Were it not for these considerations, one might easily conclude that the economic advantages of tourism are unequivocally positive.
On the contrary, I am inclined to believe that the downsides of increased tourism are more impactful. While tourism does indeed contribute to the economy, it also often leads to environmental degradation. Vietnam’s coastal regions, such as Ha Long Bay, have witnessed environmental strain due to the surge in visitors. If measures were implemented to regulate tourism and minimize its environmental impact, one might argue that its benefits could be maximized. However, as it stands, the environmental cost of increased tourism often overshadows its economic gains.
In conclusion, although increased tourism undoubtedly boosts the economy and creates job opportunities, these benefits do not entirely outweigh the negative environmental impacts. For countries like Vietnam, it is imperative to find a balance between welcoming tourists and preserving natural and cultural heritage. Only by achieving this equilibrium can the true potential of tourism be realized without compromising the country’s ecological and cultural integrity.
Sample 7:
Nowadays, the tourism industry has become a rather lucrative business in many countries that have marvelous natural scenery and cultural heritage. However, whether the pros outweigh the cons remains a controversial topic among many people. I agree with the view that despite the several disadvantages, it definitely plays a significant role in the economic development around the world.
Firstly, it is obvious that as a smokeless industry, tourism can attract a sheer volume of tourists from other places, and then boost the local consumptions like hotels, restaurants, air industry, as well as creating numerous job opportunities. The Australian government, for example, can earn a large proportion of income from its travelling resources with its spectacular scenery along the seacoast each year. Therefore, many countries now are eagerly disseminating their own unique attractions.
Moreover, tourism income may help conserve the natural landscape, wildlife, and cultural heritage. This is mainly because preserving the food, fashion, festivals, and scenery needs a great number of funds. If there is no such huge financial support, the scenic spot will lack maintenance and disrupted and thus they will be fade away sooner or later.
That is not to say that the tourism industry is flawless. Chances are that local living conditions and lifestyle are disturbed, and the environment is degraded due to the fact that floods of travellers pour into the once serene places and bring in rubbish and noise. But like other industries, the governments should legislate to avoid these problems.
In sum, many cities and countries now heavily rely on this indispensable industry; meanwhile, though the pros clearly outweigh the cons, the consequences should be handled by efforts. Only by doing so can we ensure that tourism would be developing in a healthy way.
Sample 8:
The global travel industry has witnessed massive growth in the recent decade, attributable to the rise of the low-cost carrier business model. As a result, nations around the world are embracing international tourism as an essential source of economic growth. I believe the advantages of welcoming foreign tourists far outweigh the corresponding disadvantages as long as certain risks are adequately controlled.
Tourism has long been the lifeblood of many economies around the world as well as a tool to carry out international politics. The money that foreign travelers bring to another country creates vital short-term and long-term impacts. In the short term, the expenses paid by tourists go directly to the local populace, improving their livelihood. Thailand probably serves as the best example as many coastal cities such as Pattaya or Phuket have become heaven for people who want to make a good living. In the long-term, private companies, sensing income opportunities, will heavily invest funds into the country, region, or city. These funds will further boost the wealth of the nation. Besides, tourism also plays an integral part in maintaining a balance in global politics by making countries closer and friendlier to each other. The relationship between Vietnam and Korea clearly illustrates how two countries can move from foes to friends by promoting each other’s tourism industry.
Nothing comes without some drawbacks. The growth in international travel has brought up many concerns regarding environmental damages, health issues, and criminal activities. The influx of people to a new destination often creates monumental challenges in waste management. In 2018, the situation was so dire that the government of the Philippines had to shut down Boracay, a hugely attractive traveling destination, for six months to clean out the trash. Airborne diseases, such as SARS or MERS, also spread faster due to tourism. It is also notable that crime rates have risen sharply in popular holiday spots. However, all of the stated problems can be well handled if governments and nations around the world can cooperate efficiently to promote positive tourism practices. For example, the Southeast Asian countries have created a shared database of people with health risks to track contagious disease movements around the region.
In conclusion, increased tourism will bring about great positive benefits despite certain containable shortcomings. It is expected that countries and companies around the world will further direct their efforts to promote the travel industry.
Sample 9:
As international travel becomes cheaper, more and more people travel, and more countries open their doors to increasing numbers of tourists. Some people are of the opinion that international travel does more harm than good whilst others are in favor of the opposite view. From my viewpoint, I prefer the latter opinion for the following reasons.
First and foremost, it is an undeniable fact that international travel goes hand in hand with economic growth since it not only creates millions of jobs but also elevates the tourist industry as well. The most prime example is most countries that have outstanding tourist attractions often has their economic status increased 10% in a few years in comparison with countries that don’t have ones since international travel brings about huge gross profit for travel agencies. Moreover, international travel recruits a huge number of employees every year and often ensures a high income which results in a decrease in the unemployment rate. In other words, international travel has a great contribution to economic growth in various aspects. Another reason why I advocate international tourism is that travelers can take advantage of it by acknowledging not only diverse cultures but potential business contracts as well. As a matter of fact, tourists have inevitably witnessed and later obtained general knowledge from history to customs by experiencing cultural cross in their visits. For example, in Japan, thumbing up stands for excellent performance whilst in Indonesia, it doesn’t. Moreover, international travel also aids businessmen to reach their full potentials. For instance, an adequate fishing trade circulation may catch the eye of a French businessman who is looking for one on his vacation in Japan. Therefore, it seems reasonable that travelers benefit a lot from international travel.
Some of my opponents claim that international travel has its shortcomings since it may have a negative influence not only on the environment but on society as well. This has some merits on the surface; however, it should be borne in mind that the government has taken strict international travel regulations into practice recently which leads to the fact that rarely can international tourists either violate the law or commit social vices. As a result, international travel has its advantages that outweigh its disadvantages.
In conclusion, international travel stimulates economic development and benefits travelers in various ways. Therefore, the economy and travel experience cannot be upgraded unless international travel is encouraged to become a trend in the future.

It is irrefutable that international tourism has taken on mammoth dimensions. In fact, it has become the backbone of many economies of the world. This situation has both pros and cons. In my opinion, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
International tourism can have many benefits for individuals. The most important benefit is that tourism provides regular employment for many local people who might otherwise be unemployed. They can find work in restaurants or hotels, or with tourist agencies as guides or drivers, for example, and earn regular wages. This, in turn, means that they may be able to save money and improve their standard of living. The second reason is that tourists spend money in the country, and this allows local businesses such as restaurants, bars and taxi companies to flourish. In turn, other businesses, food suppliers or petrol stations, for instance, maybe established in order to provide services to support the companies which cater for tourists. In other words, the whole economy of the region develops.
A third reason is that in order for tourists to be able to visit remote areas, roads, airports and hotels have to be built and local people also benefit by being able to use these new facilities. Furthermore, when communications improve, it becomes possible for other industries to move into the area, bringing with them more employment opportunities and increased prosperity. A final reason why I am in favor of tourism is that visitors from outside bring fresh ideas and different ways of doing things to the local community. Consequently, local people may learn from tourists. Likewise, visitors learn about the local people and culture and return home with a deeper understanding of the host country.
On the other hand, there are some problems associated with international tourism. Firstly, there is the increasing crime rate. Some locals see tourists as easy prey because, not only are they in unfamiliar territory and therefore less able to take care of themselves, but also, they carry visible items of wealth, such as cameras and jewelry which can be disposed of quickly for a profit. Another major problem is health. With greater mobility comes the greater danger of spreading contagious diseases around the world. Also to be considered is the natural environment, which can be seriously threatened by too many visitors. Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, for example, is in danger of being destroyed by tourists and there are plans to restrict visitors to some of the more delicate coral reefs.
To put it in a nutshell, I pen down saying that international tourism has both advantages and disadvantages. However, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
Sample 11:
International travel has become more accessible, and numerous countries are actively encouraging an increasing number of tourists. Despite certain drawbacks associated with this trend, I maintain that the advantages of enhanced tourism significantly overshadow the negatives.
On the one hand, there are undeniable challenges stemming from the surge in international tourism. Primarily, the local environment may be adversely affected by the expansion of facilities and infrastructure needed to accommodate the growing number of visitors. For instance, in Vietnam, several tourism companies have been authorized to clear vast areas of forestland to build modern amenities such as hotels and golf courses, leading to harmful consequences for natural habitats. Additionally, in host countries, an increased cost of living may burden local residents and negatively impact domestic tourism. This is because a rise in international tourists can result in inflated prices for accommodations and other services, potentially causing financial strain for local communities and domestic travelers.
On the other hand, the merits of international tourism are substantial and, in my opinion, far exceed the aforementioned challenges. Firstly, the local economy can experience significant growth through a flourishing tourism industry, as more employment opportunities emerge to cater to the needs of tourists. Local residents can secure jobs in hotels, restaurants, and other tourist-related businesses, allowing them to boost their income and improve their living standards. Secondly, a growing influx of foreign visitors can considerably strengthen the host country’s tourism sector, contributing substantially to its economic growth. Satisfied tourists are likely to recommend the destination to their acquaintances or even plan return visits, further advancing the country’s tourism industry.
In conclusion, the positive aspects of international tourism appear to be more substantial than its disadvantages. The economic growth and employment opportunities that arise from increased tourism largely counteract the environmental and financial concerns it raises.
Sample 12:
In recent years, international tourism has experienced a surge in popularity, fueled by the decreasing cost of transportation and the ever-growing accessibility of diverse tourist destinations. Countries increasingly opening their doors to tourists has sparked off a debate whether the advantages of this trend outweigh its disadvantages. While increased tourism offers numerous benefits, it also poses challenges that necessitate careful consideration.
On the positive side, increased tourism has brought undeniable advantages. Countries welcoming more tourists witness a boost in their local economies through spending on accommodation, dining, transportation and various recreational activities. This influx of revenues not only supports the tourism industry but also has a profound effect on other sectors, thus fostering job creation and economic development. Furthermore, exposure to different cultures and traditions deepens cross-cultural understanding, breaking down stereotypes and promoting global harmony. The interchange of ideas and perspectives between tourists and locals can contribute to the enrichment of both parties, creating a more interconnected and empathetic world.
However, it is crucial to acknowledge the downsides of the tourist boom and one of the most significant concerns is the environmental impact. Increased footfall in popular tourist destinations often leads to ecological degradation, exerting stress on delicate ecosystems and contributing to climate change. Overcrowding can lead to pollution, habitat destruction and strain on essential resources and therefore pose a threat to the attractions that draw tourists in the first place. Additionally, the influx of tourists can strain local infrastructure and resources, leading to issues such as traffic congestion, waste management challenges and growing demand for energy.
In conclusion, the merits and demerits of booming tourism are multifaceted and require balanced evaluation. While there are indisputable economic benefits and cultural exchange fostered by tourism, the environmental drawbacks must not be ignored.

Sample 1:
Some people argue that playing team sports provides people with more benefits as opposed to participating in individual sports. Personally, I believe that both types of sports can provide a range of benefits to people, and it depends on what benefits each individual wishes to achieve as to which sport they should choose to play.
On the one hand, team sports, such as football and basketball, provide a number of benefits to those who play. For example, team sports give players the opportunity to develop interpersonal skills, like teamwork and communication skills, which will not only help people in their day-to-day social interactions but also benefit them in their workplace. In addition, team sports also offer players the chance to develop a sense of unity, friendship, and sportsmanship between teammates, which can really add value to people’s lives by making them feel a part of something.
On the other hand, individual sports, like tennis and swimming, also have their merits. When someone plays an individual sport, it usually gives them more opportunities to enhance their personal skills, such as being able to manage emotions, cope with stress, and build confidence and self-esteem. When people are playing an individual sport, they usually have no one else to rely on for support during the game or match, and therefore, individuals will need to develop a strong mindset to be able to deal with and overcome any setbacks they may face. Individual sports also provide better opportunities for people to challenge themselves by setting goals and achieving personal bests.
Overall, I feel that all sports offer great benefits for people’s mental and physical health, and that people should choose whatever sport they are most interested in playing.

Sports play an important role in physical and mental well-being. However, there is a debate about which type of sport is more beneficial: team sports such as football or individual sports like tennis and swimming. In my opinion, both team and individual sports have their advantages and should be encouraged.
On the one hand, team sports like football have many benefits. They teach important values such as teamwork, communication, and leadership, and can help individuals develop social skills and build relationships. Furthermore, playing in a team can provide motivation and accountability, as individuals feel responsible for their teammates' success. In basketball, teamwork is essential. Players must communicate effectively and work together to pass the ball, set screens, and create scoring opportunities. This requires trust, cooperation, and a willingness to put the team's success ahead of individual goals.
On the other hand, individual sports like tennis and swimming can also have significant benefits. They offer a sense of independence and self-reliance and can help individuals develop focus, discipline, and resilience. Furthermore, they offer the opportunity for personal achievement and competition, which can be very motivating for some individuals. For instance, swimming requires a high level of physical endurance and mental focus, making it an ideal sport for individuals looking to develop discipline, resilience, and self-reliance. Swimming can also offer a sense of freedom and independence, which can be particularly appealing for individuals who prefer to work alone and enjoy the solitude of being in the water.
In conclusion, both team and individual sports have their benefits and should be encouraged. Individuals should choose a sport that aligns with their personality, preferences, and goals, and prioritize physical activity for overall health and well-being.
Sample 3:
It is argued that people will gain more benefits when engaging in team sports such as football. Other people, however, believe that it is better to participate in individual sports like golf or tennis. I personally agree with the first group.
On the one hand, there are a number of reasons why some people think that taking part in individual sports has more advantages. Firstly, people who choose to play solo sports such as swimming or tennis have the opportunity to develop independence. This can be explained by the fact that those who play these sports have no one to help them during the game, so they are forced to develop independent thinking and make their own decisions. Those who take part in team sports, by contrast, often receive support from their team members, which could discourage them from developing these skills. Another reason is that players in solo sports know that their success depends mostly on their effort, determination and concentration. Therefore, these people always make every possible effort to achieve their goals.
On the other hand, I would argue that it is more beneficial to take part in sports which are played in teams such as basketball or football. This is because these sports teach their players valuable life lessons that they could not learn from individual sports. Take football as an example. Those who play this game are taught to work effectively in a team environment and even sacrifice themselves for the sake of their team. Team sports also teach people about leadership, which is one of the most important skills in today’s world.
In conclusion, although some people say that we should choose to play solo sports such as golf or tennis, I believe that team sports like football bring far more benefits.
Sample 4:
While some say that participating in team sports is advantageous, others think that players will reap more benefits from individual sports. In my opinion, I support the idea that team sports can support a person’s development better.
First of all, team sports are beneficial as they can help foster various desirable qualities in a person. A great team player is oftentimes also a supportive and cooperative friend, and a visionary who is capable of utilizing team members’ strengths when and where appropriate. A case in point is doubles badminton. To win a match, both players must understand how each other plays. Only in that case can both athletes find a suitable arrangement within a match. Next, both have to place their trust in the other person’s ability to cover the arena. Moreover, team sports can help build great camaraderie, especially for working adults who do not have time to mingle.
Nevertheless, individual sports are quite advantageous in some cases. It allows the players to learn more about themselves and focus on improving their ability alone. By having to fully bear the weight of any loss or take credit for any success, the player will grow to be a responsible, self-reliant, and confident person. Take chess for example, in most cases, chess is an individual sport as this game requires complete trust in one’s ability, speed, and the ability to foresight. All of which are difficult to achieve in team sports where many minds are involved in the decision-making process.
Overall, even though individual sports offer some positives to a certain extent, I completely agree with the idea that team sports is more beneficial to people since it can help them develop valuable attributes.
Sample 5:
People have different views about which type of sports is better for them to participate in. While there are certain benefits of playing team sports, I would argue that taking part in individual sports is a better option.
On the one hand, team sports are advantageous to some extent. Firstly, playing team sports requires participants to cooperate with other teammates, which can help them to improve their teamwork skills. For example, in a football match, players in a team have to work together to put the ball into the opponent’s net. This is similar to the process in which employees are required to handle tasks together in order to achieve the company’s objectives. Secondly, playing sports in teams is also a great chance to meet new people and make new friends. As a result, people can build up their network, which is highly beneficial to their career.
On the other hand, I believe it is better for people to play sports individually. The first reason is that this allows people to foster their independence instead of depending on others. For instance, when a player wants to win a match of tennis, he has to try his hardest as there is no one else to rely on. Therefore, individuals would learn how to overcome bigger obstacles in life by themselves. Additionally, as people play sports alone, it is easier for them to maintain a regular training schedule. If they play sports with a number of other players, it will be difficult to organise weekly sessions that everyone can find the time to attend.
In conclusion, while team sports bring about undeniable benefits, I believe people should devote more of their spare time to playing individual sports.
Sample 6:
There are those who opine that participating in sporting activities played in teams is more crucial to people. Others, however, disagree, insisting that sports requiring individual efforts play a more vital role. In this essay, both ideas will be analysed before the presentation of my perspective, which is that people’s involvement in both types is more advisable.
It is justified for some to favour the greater importance of team sports to people. The major reason is that their cooperation skills can be better sharpened. To defeat the opponent in a football match, for instance, members of a group have to employ collective power to score a goal, during which time they gradually learn how to work together with others. Additionally, people are likely to build a wider network of contacts. If joining team sports, school and tertiary pupils may know more about other students while adults can meet participants from diverse work backgrounds.
On the other hand, it is also true that people benefit more from individual sports. To begin with, these activities can cultivate people’s perseverance in a more effective manner. If a tennis player feels exhausted in a match, what drives them to continue is a determined will; this is the moment when their willpower is exercised. Moreover, people are able to enjoy a deeper happiness when achieving triumph. It can be explained easily by the fact that the only winner will not share the rapturous applause from audiences inside and outside the stadium.
In conclusion, I believe that both sides of the argument are reasonable. On balance, it is my firm opinion that not only should people take part in team sports but also individual ones. After all, while team sports encourage the development of people’s ability to collaborate with others and create opportunities for them to make more friends, people can also possess dogged perseverance and feel greater joy in winning competitions.
Sample 7:
There are those who opine that it is more advantageous to play team sports, like football, while others argue that sports with individual players, like tennis or swimming, are better choices. This essay discusses both sides of the argument and why I believe that playing non-team sports can bring more benefits.
There are understandable reasons why some feel that team sports are more advantageous. First of all, people playing this kind of sport can learn how to cooperate with others to achieve mutual goals. For example, scoring a goal in a football match requires players in different positions to collaborate closely with each other. In addition, if people in a company play team sports regularly with each other, it will improve their bonding, thereby boosting their work performance. Furthermore, people engaging in team sports are likely to have a better social life. It is obvious that enjoying a favorite activity with those sharing the same interests is a base point for a close relationship.
On the other hand, others believe that playing non-team sports is better. The first reason is that this kind of sport can help people to improve their mental toughness. This can be explained by the fact that the players understand their success entirely depends on their own efforts, so they force themselves to be more self-disciplined such as setting personal goals, managing stress and practicing consistently. In addition, being mentally strong can help people to overcome difficulties and challenges to achieve goals in life. Another reason is that it is more convenient for people to play individual sports. For example, people can go to the swimming pool whenever they want, and if they want to play tennis, they just have to find one person unlike soccer when they have to find two teams.
In conclusion, I firmly believe that both sides of the argument have their positive points. However, I am inclined to believe that team sports are more beneficial because having collaboration skills and a better social life outweigh the benefits of having mental strength and greater convenience.
Sample 8:
Some claim that team sports such as football are more beneficial to players. Meanwhile, others hold a belief that sports that are played individually have superior advantages. In my opinion, both types of sports bring equal advantages.
On the one hand, by participating in team sport, we learn to collaborate with others. In sport fields, individual ambition takes second place to team objective. Every team member is working towards a common goal. To achieve this goal, cooperation and coordination are of the essence. Members must work as a team and achieve the maximum synergy even if that means someone has to make certain sacrifices. For instance, a cyclist may take the leading position for half of the game and then drop out so as to ensure the victory of his teammate. Or another case in point is that in football, a player may have to sacrifice the opportunity to score a goal to pass the ball to his team player if the chance of a goal being scored is higher with his teammate.
On the other hand, solo sports can bring players a number of benefits, one of which is the cultivation and maximization of personal capacities. To be precise, when without the assistance of others, one has to exert himself to the utmost to come up with solutions to win, and this challenges his own limits. For example, in tennis, a player has to strategize his ball serves, predict where the ball falls and be agile in his movement, and he has to multi-task all these on his own. Besides, when doing sports individually, people are liberated from the constraint of rigidly following a previously agreed plan, thereby having the freedom to experiment with new ways of playing. Therefore, such players often have a high sense of satisfaction.
In conclusion, each type of sport has its merits in cultivating players’ personality development. It should depend on each player as to what sports they should do.
Sample 9:
Some people argue that playing team sports like football provides people with more benefits as opposed to participating in individual sports such as tennis or swimming. Personally, I believe that both types of sports can provide a range of benefits to people but, by participating in team sports one can learn useful skills which are only possible with group activities.
On the one hand, team sports such as football and basketball offer a variety of advantages to those who participate. Team sports, for example, provide players with the opportunity to develop interpersonal skills such as teamwork and communication skills, which will benefit them not only in their daily social interactions but also in their workplace. Furthermore, team sports allow players to develop a sense of unity, friendship, and sportsmanship among teammates, which can significantly improve people’s lives by making them feel a part of something.
On the other hand, individual sports provide more opportunities for people to improve their personal skills, such as emotion management, stress management, and confidence and self-esteem building. Individuals who participate in an individual sport like swimming, usually have no one else to rely on for support during the game or match, so they must develop a strong mindset to deal with and overcome any setbacks they may face. Individual sports also give people more opportunities to push themselves by setting goals and achieving personal bests.
Overall, I feel that all group sports offer great benefits for people’s mental and physical health, and that people should choose playing team sports and must also be involved in single games in order to achieve balance.
