5. A company has announced that it wishes to build a large factory near your community. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of this new influence on your community. Do you support or oppose the factory? Explain your position.
A company has announced that it wishes to build another large factory near our community. On the one hand, some people believe that building a factory has some advantages, such as employee opportunities, economic growth; on the other hand, others may think that the factory has many disadvantages, for instance, pollution problems. Different people hold different views on it not only because of their respective background but also due to their alien understanding. However, from my personal point of view, I oppose the factory.
There are numerous reasons why the disadvantages carry more weight than the advantages of a factory, and I shall here explore only a few of the most important ones. First, we need more trees and plants in our community; second, a large factory will bring us a lot of pollution. In the following discussion, I would like render my evidence to bolster my viewpoint.
The most and first prominent reason for my idea is that we need more plants for our community. Plants contribute much to lessen pollution and make our community a good place for living. We have already many factories, but we don't have a single park, where we can spend our weekend? We don't want to take our kids to visit rows of apartment buildings and industrial parks. If we have a park instead a factory, we can have another reason for entertainment. We will feel more like a human not a machine. Hence, building another factory in our community is not a good idea.
The above is only part of the important aspects, and the send argument that can be presented my opinion is that we can not afford the pollution that a factory brings us. As a proverb says “Health is more important than wealth". Although I admit that a factory will bring us many economic benefits, good environment is also crucial. We already have many problems with dirty water and air. There is no denying that the qualities of our living have gone from bad to worse. As far as I concerned, a factory is not a wise choice.
To sum up, based on what we discussed above. I believe that we can not have another factory, not only because we have to protect our environment, but also because a factory will give us too much pollution. Consequently, I strongly oppose building a factory.
