It is not necessary to travel to other places to learn about other cultures. We can learn from books, films and internet. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
People have different views on how we could improve our knowledge about
culture
in foreign countries. Some people think that we should learn from other resources instead
of travelling abroad. I would argue that it is necessary to learn more about different cultures by visiting a new country and also
learning from online sources.
On the one hand, I believe that travelling is a better way
to learn about the cultural diversity of a country. Firstly
, we could learn their language as the language represents for a community spirit, and by only speaking their language, we can understand and become part of them. Secondly
, cultural identity is also
presented in the way
they dressed, traditional costumes may show us a history of their village or other stories of their origins. Finally
, the culture
of a nation
is maintained by their food, people handed the recipe for traditional cuisines over generations. For example
, In Vietnam, we taught our children how to cook Banh Chung for Tet. However
, not everyone could afford a trip to experience a traditional life of a nation
.
On the other hand
, other resources like books and films could bring us a cheaper way
to explore a nation
through the screen or the paper pages. Reading book could transport us to a virtual world where we could freely imagine the way
they cook food and even its taste. Flims would give us a closer look to the nation
by the footage of how people make living
, the Suggestion
a living
way
they eat and celebrate. By travelling this
way
, young people could have some background knowledge to travel in the near future when they meet the financial requirements.
In conclusion, I believe that we should not only use the internet and other online sources to learn about a new culture but
Accept comma addition
culture, but
also
, we should go visit its country to know about their culture
