问题     Do the problems brought by international travel outweigh the advantages?

选项

答案 Today, many people prefer to spend holidays in foreign countries, and increasingly more nations are opening their doors to welcome foreign visitors. Generally, I think it is a good thing. For visitors, travelling to another country can be eye-opening and rewarding. In foreign places, people get the chance to learn about various customs, lifestyles and rituals, so they tend to be more broad-minded. And journeys to places such as nature preserves or resorts are always relaxing and refreshing, which allow people to take a break from the hustle and bustle of city life. Apart from the individual benefits, many more positive influences can be easily noted. International travel undoubtedly creates more employment opportunities, adding to the revenue of the host country and increasing income of local residents. This is the very reason that it is encouraged. More importantly, international tourism helps to promote the understanding between different nations or ethnic groups. During their travel in an alien country, tourists may find its people are unexpectedly hospitable and friendly and vice versa. From a long-term point of view, some people might be concerned that if foreign visitors swarm into a country in unsustainable amounts, it may be damaging to the preservation of local culture in terms of religion, language or some customs. This could be true to some extent, but the obvious merits brought by international tourism clearly outweigh its disadvantages, and rules and regulations have already been taken by many countries to minimise its negative impacts on both local residents and their communities. So overall, I believe in this age of globalisation people and nations all benefit from the development of the international tourist industry in general.
