8
and means the worldwide coming together of countries and nations let's look at an example
9
Companies used to manufacture products in their home countries, just like the companies ProfiTV and SuperColor, who produce televisions in country A.
10
Their products are in direct competition with each other, but both companies pay the same salaries and production costs.
11
They have the same customers, use similar suppliers and sell televisions at similar prices.
12
In short, the same conditions apply to both companies.
13
So far, so good.
14
Due to technical, cultural and economic developments that have come about through globalisation, other companies, which manufacture products under different conditions,
15
can now offer their products in country A too.
16
That's why a company from country B can sell televisions here at a lower price, because they were produced for less.
17
The local firms Supercolour and ProfiTV have to react to withstand the competition.
18
And so the world grows closer together, and there is an active exchange of goods between countries.
19
More affordable products are available for more people.
20
However, not only does an exchange of products and economic goods take place, but also of services, knowledge, cultural goods and even languages.
21

If a company decides to move production to an economically disadvantaged country, people in industrialized countries lose their jobs.
25
At the same time, job opportunities open up to many locals in the economically disadvantaged country.

27
Therefore, they often remain poor and more often than not, do not have sufficient insurance, social insurance or health insurance cover.
28
A further disadvantage of globalisation is ecological problems such as climate change.
29

This causes more carbon dioxide to be released into the atmosphere, which, in turn, is the main cause of global warming.
31
Even national environmental standards are ignored.
32
This is a further cost factor in the worldwide international site competition, which should be kept as low as possible to be attractive for a company.
33
There are therefore many sides to globalization which affect almost all aspects of life,
34
causing me to think that the chain of positive and negative effects will continue to grow further.
35
What's important is to realise that globalisation itself is neither good nor bad.
36
It just depends how people deal with all the new possibilities in the future.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
