Passage 1

One of the most significant features of the American Dream is social mobility. For many years, this land has provided a platform open to citizens of all social backgrounds.
    Barack Obama is a good example of the Dream’s social mobility. The American Dream gave him the opportunity to rise in education and social class to the point of being the leader of the country.
    In recent years, there have been rising concerns that the American Dream is crumbling. This has been due to the globalization of job markets and increasing unemployment.
    On the other hand, globalization has also created new opportunities for today’s youth to change their destiny and social status through education and hard work.
