Tourism has always been considered as a benefit for the economy. It helps different areas of a country's economy. However this Major benefit has also disadvatanges. We will see in this essay how tourism benefit on economy and its disadvantages.
In order to attrack people, some countries have to upgrade their buldimgs or create ones. These actions benefit the populations. Indeed, tourism implies improving the infrastuctures I.e. Public goods. All the citizens benefit from these improvments. For exemple, the recent bulding of a new motorway linking BEijing and the airport has benefited both the Chinese and the local businesses. This may appear as an expenditure but it creates also jobs. It has also a good impact on the economy because it creates market shares.We have to highlight too that tourism brings currencies to developping countries. This helps them to import and export raw materials. It solves some of the issues those countries had to deal with.We have already said that tourism creates jobs. It is its main results. It creates formal jobs such as waiter but also informal jobs such as seller. In some countries like morrocco many people become seller in "sooks" ( sooks does mean market in Arabic ).We can also say that tourism contributes to the good image of a country .
We have seen that tourism is a good thing but as all good things it brings bad things too.First, even though it creates jobs the workers are not well paid. It only profits the businesses and not the local.We can ad as a disadvantage is the cultural aspect. In some countries there is a dress code which is important to follow but to attrack people they forget this dress code. Also there is the environmental area. Tourists are not careful with the environment and don't care about it.
In conclusion, we can say that tourism is a good and a bad thing as well. Now the question is to see how can we tranform it and make it better. We have to eliminate the disadvantages as we can and find a way to keep the benefits.I think that the governments have to work more on it , for example by doing more regulations and laws to protect local communities and the environment also.
Last important thing is the impact that the tourism has on the image of the country as said above. The governments should also work more on make tourists feel welcome , so they will stay more and spend more , and it will help the economy of the country and local people. It will raise the benefits of tourism.

Ahmed,
ReplyDeleteI think the essay has some good ideas, but your main problem is that these ideas are not well developed! The structure is mostly clear until the final body paragraph and conclusion. Try and consider the following points:
- good summarizing sentence
- make sure you develop and explain any ideas you use in your body paragraphs
ex: It has also a good impact on the economy because it creates market shares.
---> there is no follow through for this sentence- give an example or explain what you mean.
ex: We can also say that tourism contributes to the good image of a country .
--> why can we say this? Don't make blanket statements. You must justify all of your ideas!
ex: Also there is the environmental area. Tourists are not careful with the environment and don't care about it.
--> This could certainly use an example as a support!
- remember to use a mixture of simple and complex sentences. There are too many simple sentence structures, and academic writing requires both! For instance, your introduction is only a string of simple sentences.
- remember to include a topic sentence in body paragraphs (ex: benefits paragraph is missing a topic sentence)
- word order
ex: However this Major benefit has also disadvatanges. --> also has
- spelling
ex: attrack --> attract
- the conclusion does not feel like a summarizing paragraph, but rather one that refers to a previous supporting idea and gives new information!
