As technologies evolve, the world is becoming smaller and smaller. During the process of globalization, some distinct cultures have been vanishing and integrated into other mainstream cultures. Should we preserve these distinct cultures? The following are the supporters’ and opponents’ opinions. Read carefully the opinions from both sides and write your response in NO LESS THAN 200 words, in which you should first summarize briefly the opinions from both sides and give your view on the issue.
Marks will be awarded for content relevance, content sufficiency, organization, language quality. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks.
YES
First, allowing people to preserve their own cultures allows other people to understand different cultural practices and ways of life. This exposure to new experiences enriches the cultural practices of all: we are better able to make choices about the way in which we wish to live our lives, whether that is a matter of what food we eat or what religion we practice.
Second, no one has a monopoly on the knowledge of the best way to live life. As such, we each have to seek out this "good life" for ourselves; it varies depending on our individual values and priorities. Multiculturalism allows that there is a greater choice between ways of living, rather than everyone being "integrated" into a way of life that varies very little.
NO
There are a great many problems in many areas as a result of poor integration. Race riots, racial violence and the scapegoat-ing of minority communities all tear communities apart. France has recently begun to forcibly evict communities of Roma from its cities after clashes between local communities and the travelling community of Roma.
Integration allows us to diffuse the "us and them" mentality: to see other people in terms of their similarities, not their differences from us. The resultant greater understanding of others makes community cohesion much more likely and the horrors of racial tension much less likely.

答案
Cultural Integration: an Inevitable Trend Globalization has aroused discussions among the public on whether we should preserve the diversity of culture or stimulate the integration of culture. Some believe people should respect different cultural practices and choose their own way to live. Others believe integration brings better understanding of different cultures and releases racial tension. In my opinion, it is better to enhance cultural integration based on recognizing the diversity of different cultures. First, it is unethical to conserve "less developed" societies, because this will deny people within those regions the benefits of technological and medical advances enjoyed by those in the "developed" world. In the same manner that taking poverty in underdeveloped nations as "cultural diversity" is inhumane. Moreover, it is similarly irrational to promote all religious practices simply because they are seen to contribute to cultural diversity, particularly religious practices recognized by the WHO and the UN as unethical, including female genital mutilation, polygamy, child brides, and human sacrifice. Second, cultural integration actually fosters more balanced cultural exchanges and strengthens international co-operation and solidarity with business and trade opportunities in cultural and creative industries. In the process of integration, cultural practices less known will be recognized and understood by other cultures. In conclusion, cultural integration is a trend that can be developed in a harmonious way and we should be respectful and wise enough to reject its dross and assimilate its essence.
解析
考生在下笔之前应先审题。明确写作要求:针对“应该支持多元文化还是促进文化融合”这一热议话题,首先总结正反方的意见,然后给出个人观点。文章结构可安排如下:
第一段:建议概括双方观点,提出自己的观点——促进文化融合。
第二段:分两点铺陈论证自己的观点。第一,为了保持文化多样性而不让相对落后地区享受科技和医疗进步,是不道德的;第二,文化融合有利于促进文化和经济的交流和往来。
第三段:总结全文,重申观点——文化融合是趋势所在,我们应当去其糟粕,取其精华。
