　　雅思大作文范文：多种文化的相互影响

　　Nowadays, tourism is developing flourishingly and more and more people

　　travel abroad. When people visit others countries, facing the local customs

　　and behaviors, should imitate it or not, there is a hot debate.

　　Some people hold that we should imitate the local customs and behaviors of

　　the foreign country. First of all, respect is one of the most important

　　factors while we visit others countries. Understanding and following their

　　way of life shows our respect for the local people and thus makes it easier

　　to establish good relationship with them. Secondly, many embarrassments and

　　conflicts are results of differences in custom and traditions between the

　　tourists and the locals, the solution to which would be for the visitors to

　　appreciated and imitate local culture and behaviors. If we don't

　　experience their customs and behaviors by ourselves, it is hard to

　　understand the local people and culture. By doing things according to their

　　custom, we can better understand them and become more tolerant toward

　　differences, the very quality that enable us to live in harmony. Thirdly,

　　the foreign custom and traditional always seems fascinating to visitors

　　from other parts of the world, the imitating of which makes the travelers

　　life more colorful.

　　On the other side, however, those who oppose the above viewpoint believe

　　that the host country should welcome culture different. In the first place,

　　as a kind of unofficial ambassadors, travelers bring different culture to

　　the destination country, which not only enriches their lives but promote

　　mutual-understanding as well. Besides, imitating is not the best or the

　　only way to understand the local customs and behaviors well. The

　　understanding of the foreign culture also can be through careful observing

　　and intently perceiving. What's more, for any nation to preserve its

　　unique culture heritages, she has to first embrace cultural difference in

　　order to increase the awareness of its own culture for its citizens. In

　　addition, it is unrealistic to expect visitors coming after to readily pick

　　up the local custom for their own culture and deep-tooted and dearest to

　　them. And we are experiencing a kind of cultural integration, whose

　　advantages far outweigh its disadvantages.

　　People of both sides have their own sound reason to support their opinions.

　　Taking all the above into consideration, to be honest, it is difficult for

　　me to make a decision and I have to hold a balance point of view. It is

　　need not to imitate the foreign customs and behaviors completely, and at

　　the same time, understanding the local culture through this kind of way is

　　not a bad way.
