Nowadays globalization has become a very hot topic.Because of globalization,people around the globe are more connected to each other than ever before.Information and money flow more quickly than ever .goods and services produced in one part of the world are increasingly abailable in all parts of the world.International travel is more frequent.Internatonal communication is commonplace.
Globalization is a double edged sword.
It brings lots of benifits to our daily life.The world,for us,is getting smaller and smaller.Through the internet and mobile phone,the world is exactly at our fingertips.We can contact our friends around the world,we can travel from place to place,and we can even know what is happening on the other side of the world at the same moment.Indeed,we also have been given more opportunities than our parents have dared to dream.
However,it also has his own disadvantages.Take our Chinese for example,globalization has influenced the way we live.Look at ourselves,we love to eat KFC’s and McDonal’s rather than our Chinese dumplings; we love to drink Coca-cola rather than tea; we love to see Hollywood’s rather than domestic movies.Even some youngsters pay more attention to celebratin Christmas than Spring Festival.It seems that we are losing ourselves when facing globalizaiton.I think it’s time for us Chinese people to make some changes.We need to make a combination,a combination of the advanced culture of those foreign countries and the traditional customs of ourselves.China is a country with more than five thousand years splendid hitory.We have plenty of ancient maxims that direct us to morality,charity,and humanity.It is our duty to keep those customs forever and never forget them.It is also our challenge to combine the western culture with our traditional culture and make the combination with Chinese characteristic.
