UNIT 3
GLOBALIZATION
Match each word with its transcriptions and equivalents.
Globalization is the word used to describe the growing interdependence
of the world’s economies, cultures, and populations, brought about by
technology and flows of investment, people, and information. Over the past 100
years it’s globalization that has had the greatest impact on the English language.
English is a world language now, the dominant language of science, computing
and academia in general. But looking back 100 years, to the start of the first
world war, it wasn’t so clear that English would be so dominant.
With the globalization of economies over the last two decades, people
now can witness significant growth. Business houses and multinational
companies are all competing to get a foothold in almost every market.
Technological advancements and innovative products and services are shaping
the marketplace. The massive young population in certain countries is
expressing their wants as consumers and as a workforce. Large numbers of
people have a desire to learn English or improve their spoken English in order to
create more opportunities for themselves.
36
Globalization is deeply controversial, however. Supporters of
1. Interdependence
a. the state of having little or no money and few or no
material possessions.
2. Innovative
b. a situation or action in which people are treated unfairly.
3. Mismanagement
c. workers who want to work are unable to find jobs.
4. Injustice
d. being reliant on each other mutually.
5. Deep-seated
e. deeply rooted, firmly fixed or held.
6. Dissemination
f. featuring new methods; advanced and original.
7. Workforce
g. a strong first position in a market, industry, etc. from
which further progress can be made.
8. Dominant
h. a situation in which something such as a company or
economy is organized or controlled badly.
9. Foothold
i. the act of spreading news, information, ideas, etc. to a lot
of people.
10. Unemployment
j. more important, strong, or noticeable than anything else
of the same type.
11. Poverty
k. the group of people who work in a company, industry,
country, etc.
globalization argue that it has the potential to make this world a better place to
live in and solve some of the deep-seated problems like unemployment and
poverty. Most people see speedy travel, mass communications and quick
dissemination of information through the Internet as benefits of globalization.
The general complaint about globalization is that jobs are lost and
transferred to lower cost countries. Multinational corporations are accused of
social injustice, unfair working conditions (including slave labor wages, living
and working conditions), as well as lack of concern for environment,
mismanagement of natural resources, and ecological damage.
