Many people believe that international tourism has negative implication on their countries. What is the reason for it? What can be done to change the negative attitude towards international tourism?

It is not hard to understand from the locals’ perspective that the overwhelming numbers of
tourists
 have negative impacts on their daily lives. I believe the authorities shall introduce laws to clamp down on certain behaviour from
tourists
 in order to reduce the negative impacts on locals' lives. There are plenty of obvious reasons that the residents dislike international tourism.
Firstly
, the old town or some historical streets are often packed with sightseers, which add inconvenience to those people living in the city.
Secondly
, some
tourists
 misbehave when they are visiting
tourists
’ attractions
such
 as speaking loudly or bare-chested. Most importantly, if a place is filled with
tourists
 all year round, the living cost of that area would surge significantly without a doubt. None of the original residents would be willing to see that happen. To change the city residents' negative attitude to international tourism, the local government should introduce new regulations to guide international
tourists
 to behave properly in the future.
Also
, to cap the number of
tourists
 entering some crowded places every day is another key solution.
For example
, the Bruges authorities limited the number of visitors on board every day.
Moreover
, every tourist should follow the local governments’ guidance and respect the local customs and people. From my own experience, I know in some areas,
such
 as in Japan, a certain gesture is considered rude.
Therefore
, we should avoid gestures to show our respect. Overall, it is not uncommon that people don’t like see others wading around in their cities but I believe the negative reaction from the locals will be alleviated if the above change could be made.

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
