International tourism has brought enormous benefits to many places. At the same time, there is concern about its impact on local inhabitants and the environment. Do the disadvantages of international tourism outweigh the advantages?

There is no doubt that international tourists have brought a lot of positive impact on many countries.

However

, these benefits

also

come with many negative issues. Personally, I feel that international tourism has resulted in more advantages than disadvantages to the affected nations in general. In

this

essay, I will examine both the benefits and their related cost and support my opinion

accordingly

First

of all, many people argue that many local inhabitants have been sacrificed in order to make way for the development of tourist attractions. For examples, trees were cut down so that hotels can be constructed; old heritage sites were demolished and replaced by new shopping malls; local residence, especially the aboriginals, have to be relocated so that their land can be used for new airports.

However

, people tend to ignore the economics and social benefits brought upon by these developments.

For example

, the number of jobs created by the constructions of hotels and shopping malls could stimulate the economic growth of a nation and benefit both the people and the nation as a whole.

Secondly

, many people

also

claimed that the influx of foreign tourists will increase social problems

such

as crime rates immoral activities. For examples, they claimed that tourists usually like to visit pubs and clubs in the evening and that will lead to a higher rate of alcohol-related problems

such

as noise pollution, vandalism and prostitution.

However

, I believe that the millions of foreign dollars brought in by these tourists could actually decrease the problems if the money is put into proper used by the government.

For example

, the tax collected from the entertainment outlet could be used to help combat crime and actually make the country a safer place. In conclusion, I believe that if we look at the overall picture of international tourism when doing the cost-benefit analysis, we will see that they are more advantages than disadvantages.

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

It is more important for school children to learn about their local history rather than world history. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
While some history lessons in schools focus on the history of the children’s country, others take a more global approach and teach the history of other countries as well. I believe it is important to learn about the past of one’s own country but also the history of the world.

Some university students want to learn about other subjects in addition to their main subjects. Others believe it is more important to give all their time and attention to studying for a qualification. Discuess both these views and give your own opinion.
For many years majority of students' desire to study a broad university curriculum that covers various subjects and its opposition to the other group of leaners whose preferance lies in having a focused study on their chosen qualification, has been the central topic of many heated debates. Having carefully examined the logic behind both perspectives, I, personally, believe the best path lies some where in between.
