    Oral/Spaces and exchanges
    Message de rex38 posté le 13-05-2015 à 12:57:21 (S | E | F)
    Bonjour,
    j'ai mes oraux d'anglais prochainement et j'ai besoin d'aide pour corriger mes fautes s'il vous plait?
    Merci pour vos réponses.


    I am going to talk about the notion “spaces and exchanges”. This notion deals with the geographical and symbolic areas that all societies occupy and the interactions between men and different societies. The different spaces of the world are nowadays more and more connected to each other. With the globalization the world has become a small village where exchanges are more and more important. To illustrate this notion I have chosen to take the example of India to show to what extent the globalization and the increase of the exchanges can develop a country.

    Until the 1970s, with Nehru as prime minister, India was a poor country which wasn't open for trade; whereas today, India is an emerging country which takes part of globalization.
    To explain these changes, we have studied a text about the new face of India whose the narrator is an American whose ancestors came from India. The narrator used to live in the USA where he was born and where he was brought up before moving to India six years ago: that’s where he lives today. His parents have chosen to leave India in order to look for better-paid jobs: they thought that, living India, they were going to rise socially.
    The Indians perceived themselves as inferior to the Americans, so if the narrator said to his cousins in India that he was Indian, they would be ashamed because they thought their country was too backward.
    Before moving to India, the only knowledge that the narrator had about India was what his parents told him and what he saw when he went there on holydays, so he hardly knew India. He thought that India was a frustrating country since it has the second largest population, so there are too much unequalities between the social classes. But once there, he realized that he was wrong: his pre-conceived ideas didn’t fit the reality and he witnessed dramatic changes insofar as India now takes part in globalization.
    Indeed, today India is an emerging country whose economy is developing faster and faster. It has become a consumption society where farms have been replaced by factories. For instance, the city Bangalore in India is the hearth of High technology and it is compared to the Silicon Valley in USA.

    This evolution allowed the increase of the sociological exchanges within Indian society. Indeed, its regards the state of mind, people have realized that their country is less and less traditional, they are aware that the customs don’t matter as much as before.
    Thus, among the chances that the narrator witnessed, he was struck to see that the castes don’t determine the social status anymore. Before the people from the lower castes were supposed not to challenge their social condition, they had to perform any occupation without complaining. Whereas now they are exchanges between the castes which allow them to graduate in universities, to escape from determinism.
    They are also exchanges between men and women. Indeed, although the divorce is still a taboo, more and more women dare to break up. And even if the parents are shocked it doesn’t matter anymore.
    Moreover, they are exchanges between the religions: indeed, today, they are marriages between people who don’t have the same religion. Besides, some Hindus turn meat-eaters whereas it’s forbidden to eat beef since the cow is considered as a goddess.

    Je n'ai pas encore rédigé ma conclusion.

He thought that India was a frustrating country since it has the second largest population, so there are too much unequalities between the social classes. But once there, he realized that he was wrong: his pre-conceived ideas didn’t fit the reality and he witnessed dramatic changes in so far as India now takes part in globalization.

Besides, some Hindus turn meat-eaters whereas(bien que, alors que au sens de concession et non pas whereas qui signifie "mais au contraire") it’s forbidden to eat beef since the cows are considered as goddess**(un petit test: pluriel de goddess?).

    Bonjour, merci encore pour vos réponses.
    J'ai corrigé les fautes que vous m'avez indiquées et j'ai rédigé ma conclusion. Pourriez-vous m'aider à la corriger s'il vous plait ? ;)

    To conclude we can say that the increase of exchanges between countries, have allowed India to become an emerging country which take part in globalisation. These exchanges have also permitted the increase of sociological exchanges between men and women, castes but also between religions within Indian society.
    Currently, the prime minister of India, Narendra Modi, wants India to become more and more powerful economically. However Modi is Hindu and nationalist so he defends only his own religion, what can cause sociological problems between the different religions.

    Merci d'avance.
