Some people think that it is good for a country’s culture to show imported foreign film and TV programmes. Others think that it is better to produce these locally. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

It is suggested that showing other countries
TV
 programmes exhibit a positive impact while others believe the domestic
culture
 should be prioritized. I believe that the inclusion of global
culture
 is essential for any country's development. On one hand,
people
 who advocate domestic produced
TV
 is majorly concerned that foreign
culture
 may pose a threat to the local cultural inheritances. As more
people
 started following overseas films and
TV
 shows, the traditional
culture
 may experience a
culture
 shock.
As a result
, the
next
 generation may be overwhelmed by the alien
culture
instead
 of losing the sense of patriotic sentiment.
For example
, China's domestic traditional opera is losing the audiences to K-pop which are followed by millions of China's youngsters.
Furthermore
,
This
 replacing tendency is negative for China's traditional
culture
 to thrive.
On the other hand
, the benefits of foreign
TV
 shows cannot be underestimated , by offering the native
people
 an insight of foreign
culture
 without travelling, the more audiences gain the opportunities to see the world. As more local
people
 know the differences between the countries, they may gain an understanding of multiple dimensions.
As a result
, they are able to develop a sense of empathy of belonging to their own countries.
For instance
, By seeing worldwide food
tv
 shows, my mom started to know the recipe of Italian food, meanwhile, in comparison, she adopted a sense of

 Chinese traditional food. As the more we know the more we grow. I believe that with the globalized tendency, the benefits of foreign
TV
 shows outweigh the native
TV
 shows,
Instead
 of confining ourselves in the cultural cage, foreign programmes can broaden our horizons and offer us more knowledge and information about the rest of the world.

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
