Эссе по английскому языку на тему 'Traveling' (10-11 класс)

There is a popular opinion that travel can bring no benefit to a person other than a rest. Some people think like this, while others believe that traveling can serve as a mean of learning something new. Now I would like to express my point of view on this issue.

I strongly believe that travel allows us to learn more new and interesting things about other countries and peoples. To begin with, during the trip, we study the culture of the country we came to. Looking at the sights and going to museums, we learn a lot about the history and art of this country. What is more, we communicate with the locals, which improve our level of foreign language. We can also learn interesting facts from them, which are not available on the Internet or in books.

Nevertheless, one can consider this problem from another angle. There is also passive recreation, when people come to the sea, ocean or other pond and do nothing but swim or sunbathe.

Is spite of this convincing argument, I cannot agree with this statement, because there are beaches where specially trained people in a loudspeaker tell the history of the resort town. In addition, there are cities, such as Rome, in which you will not be able to engage in passive recreation.

In conclusion, I would like to say that travel expands your horizons, because you will learn something new, interesting about the country you are in anyway.
