Due to the influence of world-wide media such as television and computers, the gap between cultures is narrowing. The introduction of this 'global culture' is of great benefit to the world. To what extent do you agree with the viewpoint The differences of cultures among countries have caused the travelers whom who are not familiar with the traditions of that of a country, a great surprise and struggle of mind set which they were brought up with. With the ubiquitous presence of the internet and the media, the people are now introducing themselves to new cultures with greater pace comparing to old days. Many cultures existing around the globe are still following the mindset of an stone age era and in the time of their confrontations with the new era many conflicts may arise. Reducing these conflicts can now easily be made by television, computers and cutting-edge cell phones. This gives people an opportunity to think about other cultures while they are still living their own and present life. They can compare and analyze the pros and cons of the other countries’ lifestyle and even unconsciously it may change some of the old-fashioned ways of thinking in their lives because what seems seemed to be rare and exotic till yesterday, now seems plausible. On the other hand, many strict minded people find this global culture unacceptable comparing to their current culture and they find it some sort of an insult. Imagine them living their whole life with a specific way of thinking and now a great load of change is being illustrated and pushed to on them. It is reasonable that some may reject it and still cling to their previous and long-lived life. I'm more inclined to agree with the first point of view. The industrial countries are improving both their financial and cultural aspects rapidly and what seems to be logical can be accepted everywhere. Better if it is introduced by high-tech inventions, giving you the chance to outweigh the advantages and disadvantages of it and accept what is logical rather than being in that situation and struggle with it in the moment when traveling there.
