&lt;P&gt;The first reason of importing foreign-made TV programmes for the most TV companies is diversity. In order to attract more TV-viewers they need a variety of programmes for all ranges of the society . &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Secondly, it is obvious that in many countries &lt;STRIKE&gt;and&lt;/STRIKE&gt; due to limited resources &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;such as&lt;/FONT&gt; &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;s&lt;/FONT&gt;kills, &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;t&lt;/FONT&gt;echnology and &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;f&lt;/FONT&gt;unds&lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt; &lt;/FONT&gt;it is not always possible to produce locally. &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;I&lt;/FONT&gt;n addition to that, foreign programmes could be inappropriate in many cases for the local and regional culture of the country &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;and&lt;/FONT&gt;&amp;nbsp;values of the society could greatly &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;be&amp;nbsp;&lt;/FONT&gt;affected, bringing new lifestyle vision &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;which is&lt;/FONT&gt;&amp;nbsp;widely different and inappropriate. Children and youngster&lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;s &lt;/FONT&gt;are the most vulnerable &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;(vulnerable what?),&lt;/FONT&gt; and that &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;(what is that?)&lt;/FONT&gt;&amp;nbsp;would be seen in the change of their behaviour. Breaking local cultural rules could be disastrous; a very simple example today is the notion of family has become &lt;STRIKE&gt;of &lt;/STRIKE&gt;a less interest for an increasing number of people who look to be more independent than before, resulted in more single, single parents and increasing rate of divorce more than ever before. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Finally, the point that could not be ignored is, importing more and more TV programmes lead&lt;STRIKE&gt;s &lt;/STRIKE&gt;to a very serious lack in skilled and talented individuals&lt;STRIKE&gt;; this&lt;/STRIKE&gt; &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;which &lt;/FONT&gt;may kill local production instead of encouraging it. Talented individuals are more likely to leave the country &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;and &lt;/FONT&gt;&amp;nbsp;become less motivated or change completely their careers. TV companies have become more consumers&lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;( have&lt;/FONT&gt; &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;become more consumers? I didn't understand)&lt;/FONT&gt;&amp;nbsp;than producers and by importing more programmes they increase costs which result in less &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;(less what?)&lt;/FONT&gt;&amp;nbsp;or put them out of competition (People switch to other foreign TV Channels&lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;).(I didn't understand&amp;nbsp;the last sentence)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;To resume, I believe there is a necessity in importing some selected TV programmes that could be beneficial like scientific or educational ones. Encouraging local producers and talents should be the priority.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;I am preparing for the IELTS (International English Language Testing System) test which will be&amp;nbsp;by the end of&amp;nbsp;the week. Writing is an important part of the exam, we may be given any topic (Food, Weather, ... ).&amp;nbsp;We&amp;nbsp;should &amp;nbsp;write at least 250words and 4 paragraphs (Introduction: introduce the main idea briefly;&amp;nbsp;Parag.Â°1,Â°2 and/or Â°3&amp;nbsp;discuss the Advantages/Disadvantages or Negative/Positives aspects of the subject. At the end,&amp;nbsp;in the conclusion we give&amp;nbsp;personal opinion&amp;nbsp;if asked (Like: in what extend do you agree/disegree) or a general idea. Doesn't matter whether the opinion is&amp;nbsp;100% realistic or not at all as soon as the text is grammatically, logicaly (&amp;nbsp;Linkage&amp;nbsp;through&amp;nbsp;paragraphs)&amp;nbsp;correct.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I tried myself to correct the original text I wrote, so I posted here (in my first response to you)&amp;nbsp;a second version. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Thank you for any comment..&lt;/P&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Would you please comment my essay?</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/WouldEssay/vgdvb/post.htm#364498</link><pubDate>Sun, 13 May 2007 23:21:13 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="true">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:364498</guid><dc:creator>Anonymous</dc:creator><slash:comments>5</slash:comments><comments>http://www.englishforums.com/English/WouldEssay/vgdvb/post.htm#364498</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments9-364498.xml</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;P&gt;Hi Doll,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I am very pleased that you read my post (If it's correct to say it).&amp;nbsp;We have been asked by teacher to write an essay about the subject: &lt;FONT color=#ff0000&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;"&amp;nbsp;Showing foreign-made programmes is harmful for many countries. In what extend do&amp;nbsp;you agree or disagree?&lt;/STRONG&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;STRONG&gt;&amp;nbsp;"&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;&lt;U&gt;The question is formulated as below:&lt;/U&gt;&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;&lt;FONT color=#0000ff&gt;In many countries television shows many foreign-made programmes. The dominance of imported entertainment&amp;nbsp;is harmful to the cultures of these countries. To what extend do you agree or disagree? You should write at least 250 words.&lt;/FONT&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;In the text below I tried to give advantages and disadvantages and I gave my opinion at the end. I would be very&amp;nbsp;pleased if you could give any comment, correct and/or modify any part in order to improve the language,&amp;nbsp;put variety of vocabulary as much as possible or just give an more realistic opinion.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;---------------------------------- This the text ----------------------------------------------&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;There is no doubt that we are moving toward a global culture west-dominated, trough entertainment imported foreign-made TV programmes&amp;nbsp; the local culture in many countries has become more and more affected.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The first reason of importing foreign-made TV programmes for the most TV companies is diversity. In order to attract more TV-viewers they need a variety of programmes for all ranges of the society (Children, Adult, Old people, Women and Men, â¦ ). &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Secondly, it is obvious that in many countries and due to limited resources (Skills, Technology and/or funds) it is not always possible to produce locally in addition to that, foreign programmes, could be inappropriate, in many cases, for the local and / or regional culture of the country, values of the society could greatly affected, bringing new lifestyle vision widely different and inappropriate. Children and youngster are the most vulnerable, and that would be seen in the change of their behaviour. Breaking local cultural rules could be disastrous; a very simple example today is the notion of family has become of a less interest for an increasing number of people who look to be more independent than before, resulted in more single, single parents and increasing rate of divorce more than ever before. &lt;/P&gt;
