In my opinion, I believe that globalization is a double-edged sword. When it comes to local cultures and traditions, people exposed to foreign cultures and customs can easily lose their national identity. As a result, traditions that have been long held will fade easily. Additionally, due to globalization, people may feel isolated and stop engaging with their own cultural practices.

Task Response

The response addresses the question directly and provides relevant points about the impact of globalization on local cultures. To further enhance the answer, consider providing specific examples or elaborating on the mechanisms through which globalization leads to the fading of traditions and cultural isolation.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is somewhat coherent, but the repetition of 'stop' significantly disrupts the flow. Try to avoid unnecessary pauses and repetitions by practicing speaking more smoothly and thinking ahead. Using cohesive devices like 'furthermore' or 'in addition' can help link ideas more effectively.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but not particularly sophisticated. The phrase 'double-edged sword' is a good start. To improve, try to incorporate more specific and nuanced vocabulary related to cultural impact and globalization. For example, instead of 'fade easily,' you could say 'become diluted' or 'risk extinction'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is generally accurate, but there are some minor errors and awkward phrasing, such as 'will be the tradition that is long held will be fade easily.' This could be improved to 'long-held traditions will fade easily.' Focus on sentence structure and word order to enhance clarity and accuracy.
