Increasing travels between countries enable people to learn about different cultures, or to increase tension between people from different countries? Discuss both views.

The argument over the influence of foreign tourists on local cultures has been a source of contention among experts and ordinary people, some of whom claim that the increase in the foreign travel could render individuals culturally aware, whereas others think that
such
a mounting trend would increase the intercultural tension. In
this
essay, both views will be discussed. Proponents of the
first
view primarily believe that when one travels to a foreign country, one and one’s host would be able to learn about the differences and similarities of one another’s culture, improving awareness of the both.
Such
an improvement in cultural understanding could lead to an enhancement of
individuals'

individual's
tolerance towards various religious beliefs and traditions, which could
also
be a tremendous cure for extreme views
such
as racism.
For instance
, when
traveling
the act of going from one place to another
travelling
abroad, a tourist could grasp the true beauty of a nation’s culture and
thus
overcome his or her erroneous stereotypical views on that nation.
Conversely
, certain demographics of society feel that the increase in the number of the foreign tourists could pose severe threats to the local culture. The
first
claim they make is that paying scant respect and regard to the local conventions and religious beliefs, some tourists not only would be perceived irreverent and ignorant
by
Suggestion
of
the local but
also
could trigger and fuel the existing cultural conflict between two nations, at the expense of having merely a few more good

. Another rationale behind
this
assertion is that some foreign
travelers

travellers
, particularly those who come from affluent advanced countries
such
as Western countries, tend to feel superior to the indigenous
such
as the Africans.
Such
a phenomenon could undoubtedly result in an immense level of tension and conflict between the mentioned groups. In summation, the increasing trend

in
the international travel could present the host and guest nations a golden opportunity to become more culturally aware and tolerant;

this
phenomenon is
also
bound to cause
further
cultural conflict and potential tension between the nations.

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

  • Summary
  • Restatement of thesis
  • Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

  • In conclusion
  • To conclude
  • To summarize
  • Finally
  • In a nutshell
  • In general
