4.Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?
Modern technology is creating a single world culture.
Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.
Recently, with the invention of Internet and cell phone,
the world seems to form different cultures into a single
world culture. There may be one or two opposite opinions to agree with
that modern technology is creating a single world culture; however,
I believe that there are far more reasons to agree with this statement.
My arguments for this point of view are listed as follows.
First of all, perhaps one drawback to agree with the statement
is that every country or society has its own unique culture.
For instance, the ancient country or society, such as China or Egypt,
has created its own culture for a long time and never changed.
Even the new independent or colonial country, like U.S.A. or Singapore,
also creates its special culture.
Even though there may be one or two opposite opinions to the statement,
the affirmative reasons far outweigh them. The main reason for my preference
for agreeing with the statement is that the modern technology has
broken the barriers of time and distance, and simplified our lives.
It can be given a concrete example that we can take the air planes to
any destinations we want with a high speed. Therefore, we can save a lot of
time for traveling, and taking air planes has become a common way for people
to go abroad.
Furthermore, another reason for my inclination for agreeing with
the statement is that the modern technology uniforms and integrates our lives
into a single and convenient life. For example, through the invention of
Internet and cell phone, everyone in the world has to learn how to use these
two kinds of tools during his/her lifetime. Due to the regular utilization of
these two tools, we have adopted them into our lives, and changed our lives
and cultures progressively.
For all of the above reasons, in spite of the fact that there may have one or
two opposite opinions to agree with the statement that modern technology is
creating a single world culture, I still consider that the affirmative reasons
are more persuasive. Taking into account of all these above factors,
we may reach the conclusion that modern technology is creating a single
world culture.
