even though globalization affects the worlds economies in a positive way, its negative side should not be forgotten.

Discuss. In the present age, globalization is playing an increasingly impartant role in our lives. But in the meantime whether it is a blessing or a curse has sparked a heated debate. Some people argue that globalization has a fundamentally beneficial beneficial influence on our live, while many others contend that it has a detrimental effect as well. A convincing arfument can be made about globalization not only playing a pivotal role in the development of technology and economy, but also promoting the cultural exchange between different countries. o start with, it is the globalization that impelled many corporations to become an international group, thereby making a contribution to the local technology and employment. Specifically, when a mutinational group establishes a factory in a developing country, the new e!uipment, the new management skills and the "ob vacancies are all in the best inerest of the local society. #oreover, people worldwide can get to know each other better through globalization. It is easy to see that more and more $ollywood blockbusters show cultures different from American, some recent examples are %&ungfu 'anda( and % he #ummy(. Admittedly, profit driven globalization hasa severely affected young people. oday, in the metropolises in different countries, it is very common to see teenagers wearing )I&* + shirts and Adidas footwear playing $ip, $op music on Apple i'od and eating at &-.. he culture that took a thousand years to form "ust seems similar in these cities/ it is looks like you can only distinguish them by their language. #eanwhile, in some developing countries, sweat workshops are always a concerning issue. -or instance, reports show that some teenagers employed by )I&*(s contractors work in smelly factories over 01 hours a day, but are only paid fifty cents per hour. In summary, I would concede that globalization does come with some adverse effects. 2espite that fact, benefits created by it far outweigh the disadvantages. 3verall, I am convinced that we should further promote globalization and meanwhile the local government should take measures to combat culture assimilation and sweat workshops.
