参考范文：

It is certainly true that being exposed to foreign media which includes

movies, TV and publications has significantly affected local cultures as

evidently seen in my country, the Philippines. It greatly affected our local

languages and family values.

Exposure to international music, TV shows and magazines has caused a change

to our local languages. By constantly listening for instance, to western songs

and watching American TV series such Pretty Little Liars, people in my country

have eventually adapted the European language or even an American accent. As a

result, this adaptation could gradually lessen the use of our Tagalog language.

However, it could also make us globally competitive especially when hardly

looking for an employment internationally. As for my experience when I was

looking for a nursing job in Melbourne, Australia, one of their hospitals'

requirements is for me to be able to communicate English in advanced level.

Also, constant exposure to foreign media has caused a considerable impact to

family values. For instance, my country is a very conservative nation. Reserved

people here strongly disregard sex before marriage, but because of foreign

cultures regard this unacceptable notion as acceptable and obviously shown in

American and western films, Filipinos tend to do so. This leads to the negative

influence to my country's family culture.

In conclusion, I think that there are benefits and drawbacks brought to local

cultures by international media, but I cannot deny the fact that because of

these foreign sources of information, I have learned a lot, most especially

English language. So I certainly believe that there are more positive effects of

these global media than the negative ones.
