In the past century, globalization has influenced many countries, including Ecuador. This small country in South America has experienced both positive and negative effects from globalization. Here, we will explore some of the main ways globalization has impacted Ecuador's economy, culture, and environment. ……………………………………………………………………………………………………… ……………………………………………………………………………………………………… Economic Impact Globalization has changed Ecuador's economy in several ways. One major change is that Ecuador has become more connected to global markets. In the past, Ecuador’s economy depended mostly on agriculture, such as bananas and cocoa. However, with globalization, the country has diversified its economy to include oil, tourism, and exportation of products like shrimp and flowers. These industries have brought more jobs and income, helping Ecuador develop economically. However, globalization has also created some challenges for Ecuador's economy. For example, Ecuador is now dependent on the export of oil. When oil prices fall in the international market, Ecuador's economy suffers. Additionally, local businesses and farmers sometimes struggle to compete with international companies, which can affect the livelihoods of small farmers and local producers. ……………………………………………………………………………………………………… ……………………………………………………………………………………………………… Cultural Impact Globalization has also had a big influence on Ecuadorian culture. In cities like Quito and Guayaquil, you can find international brands, fast food chains, and foreign products. This has made Ecuador more modern and connected to global trends. Many young Ecuadorians are familiar with global music, movies, and fashion. However, this influence also has some disadvantages. Traditional Ecuadorian culture, like indigenous languages, clothing, and music, can be at risk. Many young people are now more interested in foreign cultures and may forget or ignore their own traditions. There is a concern that globalization might reduce the diversity of Ecuadorian culture over time. ……………………………………………………………………………………………………… ……………………………………………………………………………………………………… Environmental Impact Globalization has increased industrialization and urbanization in Ecuador, which has affected the environment. The growth of the oil industry, for example, has led to deforestation and pollution in the Amazon rainforest. The extraction of natural resources often harms local ecosystems and wildlife. At the same time, globalization has also raised awareness of environmental issues. International organizations and local activists have worked together to protect Ecuador’s unique biodiversity. For example, the Galápagos Islands, a World Heritage Site, benefit from international cooperation in conservation efforts. ……………………………………………………………………………………………………… ……………………………………………………………………………………………………… Conclusion In conclusion, globalization has brought both opportunities and challenges to Ecuador. It has helped the country grow economically and has connected it with the rest of the world. However, it has also brought environmental and cultural challenges. As Ecuador continues to develop, it will need to find a balance between modernizing and preserving its natural and cultural heritage. Globalization is an ongoing process, and its impact on Ecuador will likely continue to evolve. ……………………………………………………………………………………………………… ……………………………………………………………………………………………………… 36.​Complete the words to make names of buildings and places. 37.​ Write the correct form of the verb in brackets My friends invited me ___ ___ (go) to the art exhibition next weekend.
