Examiner: How do you think globalization might change the world in the future?

Student: I think that if globalization continues to develop, young people of the future will have a different understanding of things like nationality and culture.

Examiner: Has globalization caused young people to care less about their countries?

Student: I don’t think so. If globalization had caused young people to care less about their countries, we wouldn’t see so much national pride in sporting competitions like the Olympics or the World Cup.

Examiner: What would you say to someone who thinks that globalization is ruining the world?

Student: I would say that they should be more positive. If globalization didn’t exist, we wouldn’t have so many opportunities for work or travel and we wouldn’t be able to buy so many different products.

Examiner: Can globalization make the world a more equal place?

Student: I think this depends on what you mean by equal. If people in a country have the same opportunities in life, then globalization is good and can help the world but this is not always what happens.
