Some people believe that visitors to other countries should follow local customs and behaviour. Other disagree and think that the host country should welcome cultural differences Discuss both these views and give your opinion

#people #visitors #countries #customs #behaviour #host #country #differences

Some

people

think that travellers that visit other countries must copy the local customs and behaviour while there are some others than opine that the

country

that receives the travellers has to accept the cultural differences.

This

essay will analyze both views and explain why it agrees with the former rather than the latter. When you visit a

country

you will meet

people

living their usual lives, so it is normal for them to behave the same way they always do

that is

following their local customs.

On the other hand

, the visitors are going to be there for a limited time and

then

they will return to their countries.

Therefore

, there are 2 reasons for respecting the local customs when you travel abroad.

Firstly

, If the locals were the ones that change their behaviour they would have to do it on a normal day of their lives.

Secondly

, the travellers are going to leave the

country

without learning about the local culture.

For example

, the visitors could realize that some stereotypes about that

country

people

were false. Respecting other cultures is extremely important and

that is

why some

people

think that you must accept any cultural difference from foreign visitors. It is certainly true that these differences must be respected but they should not interrupt the normal life of the citizens.

For instance

, if the visitor comes from a

country

where alcoholic drinks are forbidden it does not mean that

people

must stop drinking alcohol when they are close to the visitor. To sum up, even though respecting others cultures is important, it is much more important, in my opinion, to those that travel abroad to respect the local culture because they will be visiting

people

in their normal life.

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
