#5 “Is tourism harmful”.

clampdown

Definition: officially trying to stop or limit people doing something.

Ex: Since the quick spread of virus, the president announced a clampdown on people traveling abroad.

Disneyfication

Definition: turning something into an artificial, not real, commercial environment, similar to a Walt Disney theme park.

Ex: Some economists still think disneyfication is a good way to  bring a city fortune.


#Opinion

     Tourism become more and more common in today. It helps people to have more connection with different cultural, people, and place.
      
      But, on the other hand, it also brings some bad effect on sightseeing place whether it's misbehavior or environmental damage. 

      I think traveling is a good thing to do, but all of the traveler should follow the rules and respect  these beautiful and historic sites.

#4 Working for free

Social mobility

Definition: the ability to move to a higher social status.

Ex: This topic is talking about social mobility in the USA.


to rule out

Definition: to exclude or prevent someone from doing something.

Ex: Due to this criteria, it rules out a lot of candidate.



#Opinion


      Working for free, I think that is based on how much you want to get into this company or learn things from it.

       My perspective is that  companies still need to pay for an internship, because the intern also works hard and put efforts in companies whether they have experience or not.

        At the end, a good company should have respect each other who work for a company and treat them as the same.

#3 A sad song.




Song: Everglow

Artist: Coldplay





It’s about a person’s belief. 

When someone that is really important to you, and one day he or she leaves for some reason. 

But all the memories that both of you have would still be living in your heart and shining like a star. 


Parts of my favorite lyrics:


 “So if you love someone, you should let them know”


 “Oh, the light that you left me will everglow”


When I feel really sad or bad things happened, this song can give me some comforting. 

Then I will feel much better.

#1 Greeting!!

Hi, I am Charlotte. I like traveling to see beautiful scenery and understand different culture. Also it's really great to meet people that you don't know during the travel and share story with them. I think that is funny and meaningful thing to do. So if you have the same feeling about this, maybe we could discuss more. And that would be awesome!!!
