To what extend do you agree or disagree? （5）Tourism is one main industry for numerous countries to reap economic profits.Whether visitors from overseas are expected to pay more for the admissi

2、on tocultural and historical sites has sparked heated debates. My view is that pricedifferentiation based on nationality is an unwise decision.From the perspective of economics, charging foreign visitors more is a shortsightedoption. If travelers from other countries realize they would pay more than

3、 localresidents, they would feel unfair and decide not to visit the cultural heritages there.As a result, the decreasing number of tourists would lead to the reduction in the taxincome generated from tourism. Thus, this seemingly ideal scheme would cause agreat loss.In addition, in consideration of

4、cultural transmission, price differentiation would notyield positive results. Undeniably, historical sites including museums and culturalheritages are the places which enable individuals to get to know what events hadever happened to a city and what kind of lifestyle they embraced before. Oncecharge

5、d more, oversea travelers would be unlikely to come to visit those places,resulting in that cultural exchange would be impeded.Some would argue that higher price for foreign tourists is reasonable becausecultural attractions are subsidized by state funds mainly raised from taxpayers. Given1that loca

6、l residents have already pay money to the maintenance of these sitesthrough tax, they deserve lower price for admission tickets. However, foreign touristscontribute enormously to local economy by means of spending money on hotels,restaurants and souvenirs, who should be equally treated.In, to achiev

7、e long-term prosperity and cultural transmission, thegovernment should make every effort to appeal to more foreign tourists instead ofdiscouraging them from visiting cultural sites. Thus, charging foreigners more wouldbe a counterproductive approach.文体结构二：讨论结构题目: Some people think that in modern soc

9、h other or more self-reliant has sparkedheated debates. My view is that the connection among people has beenstrengthened.People who opine that the progress in modern society has pushed us not to bereliant on others hold a view that new technological tools have facilitatedindependent life. For exampl

10、e, thanks to the Internet, individuals are enabled toattend training courses, handle working tasks and purchasing items at home alonewithout interacting with classmates, colleagues and shop assistants face-to-face.Thus, compared with the past time, the modern era of information technology2makes us b

11、ecome more independent. Also, the betterment of social welfare systemhas encouraged independence. With access to education, improved medical caresystem as well as pension, people nowadays particularly the elderly are moreeducated and healthier than ever before, which means that they no longer rely o

12、ntheir children to take care of them.On the other hand, dependence would never disappear regardless of how societydevelops because to complete any task in modern society inevitably requires socialconnection. While we can handle many issues alone at home with access to theInternet, almost all the tas

For instance, if wework overtime, we mostly rely on house maids, cleaning services and restaurantshave our household chores done, which used to be done on our own. In addition,due to the increasingly fast-paced life and fierce competition, people need tosocialize

16、ays. if not instantly3addressed, it would entail many negative consequences. In my view, there arevarious factors behind the scene.Firstly, the difficulty in adapting to the society after imprisonment leads ex-offendersto commit crimes again. While ex-prisoners do need more social concern and care,t

17、he reality is that they usually struggle to stand on their own feet. Even though someof them are educated, skillful and proactive, they cannot easily find suitable jobs forsurvival because many enterprises are unlikely to hire them in consideration of thefame of companies. Consequently, to cover the

18、ir daily essential costs, ex-criminalswould get money by robbery, burglary and theft again.Secondly, recidivism is attributed to their inadequate education. Surveys show thatmost criminals are poorly educated and even illiterate. Even worse, when beingimprisoned, they seldom have opportunities to ac

19、quire more knowledge and learnmore skills but they are forced to do loads of physically-demanding jobs instead. Asa result, what they can only do after being releases is still resorting to crimes.To reverse this problem, there are several measures that can be taken in reality. Thegovernment should o
