ALTERNATIVE PARAGRAPH
First, I am of the opinion that any physical exercise is a good way to reduce
stress. When you are busy with exercises, you are thinking of the moves you
make, and this usually takes your mind off the things that would cause stress.
Becoming physically tired and sweating are good for your blood circulation
and breathing (respiratory) system.

6.20 TOURISM AND ENGLISH
Tourism is developing quickly in many countries, and English is becoming
the most popular language in the world. Will the great numbers of
English-speaking tourists affect other languages and cultures?
Note: The words in parentheses are more advanced alternatives.
INTRODUCTION
Like so many things in life, unfortunately, tourism not only has positive
effects. In this essay, I will look at this issue in terms of language and moral
(ethical) standards. (29 words)
BODY
Slang is defined as “words or phrases, or particular meanings of these, that
are in common informal use but are generally considered not to form part of
the standard language and are often used deliberately for novelty or
unconventionality.” For example, bro is used instead of brother. One
possible negative effect of a greater number of English-speaking tourists
visiting a region might be that they influence local people to use more slang
in their language.
Second, tourists may have a negative influence on the moral standards and
ethical standards (principles) of communities. Crime, drugs, pornography,
prostitution, and alcoholism might increase among locals in the presence of
large numbers (masses) of tourists (visitors). For instance, the young people
(youngsters / younger generation) in a community might want to copy the
customs of other countries and in the process leave (abandon) the traditions
and principles taught to them. For example, Americanism has become a threat
to communities desperately in need of foreign money (currency). A good
(excellent) case in point is the way in which Hawaii has changed since it has
become a famous tourist destination. (174 words)
CONCLUSION

---

To summarize, large numbers of English-speaking tourists could affect
communities negatively. In conclusion, one could say that communities have
to be careful (aware) of this and take the steps needed (necessary) to keep
the effects to a minimum without discouraging tourists from visiting them. (42
