026 It has recently been announced that a new movie theater may be built in your neighborhood. Do you support or oppose this plan? Why? Use specific reasons and details to support your answer.

Our community has witnessed rapid growth these years after establishing a series of public facilities, such as a shopping mall, library, hospital and etc. However, we still do not have an entertainment facility so far. With setting up a movie theater, we would fill the shortfall and make our neighborhood a more attracting place from following three perspectives.

First of all, cinema is a quick path to knit the community together.  Although it is convenient for my neighbors to shop in the mall or look up books in local library, they find themselves in relative isolated since limited community activities they could take part in.  Several times I have heard complaints from my neighbors about the difficulties in ferreting out a common topic with other residents.  However, if a new cinema is ushered into our community, the situation would be turned around. Peoples can kill their leisure time with neighbors by visiting the cinema and enjoy a hit film.  Even it could not be applied to all the cases, at least, a common topic could be easily found in daily talks.

In the meantime, a cinema could bring about economic benefits along with the above social ones. It is widely accepted that the economics in certain district can seek a great leap with the help of a spurt of large investment. Introducing a cinema is a case in this point. Let alone engulfing unemployment during incipient preparation and staff recruitment, a cinema usually spurs cluster service such as restaurants, cafes, bars and etc. People searching for entertainment have disposable money and prone to enjoy meal before or after watching a movie. In short, the cinema will certainly invigorate a new round of economic boom in this area.

The last but not the least, a cinema would maintain the vividness of the neighborhood by attracting more immigrants. Urban population is naturally drained from less favored community to developed one.  In usual, the immigrants would determine their destination by gauging the ease to which they can access the public facility. A neighborhood with a cinema of course weighs in the competition. Commercial promotion for real estate justifies this point: advertisers always boast of a cinema as a culture landmark in order to catch eyes of potential settlers.

Nevertheless, we should not turn blind eyes to some counter-productive effect of the cinema. Overpopulation would be the typical one.  All the above three advantages lead to a surge in population which surely stretch collective welfare: shortage in parking lot, increasing rental, crowed transportation and etc.  However, this difficulty would be altogether overcome after the cinema yields profit, which is returned in the shape of tax and then translated into investments in public infrastructure.

In the nutshell, it is savvy and wise to embrace the proposal. A cinema in our neighborhood provides an easy way to facilitate the connection of community, spur local economics and enhance the attractiveness to newcomers. As neighborhoods around us are already speeding up to contend for this cinema, we should confirm the proposal with no delay.
