1， 首先，前提是錯誤的。因為各地差異不同，所以全球化的大公司，想在所有地方都提供一樣的產(chǎn)品服務是不現(xiàn)實的。empirical evidence: 很多成功的大企業(yè)，往往是那些充分認識到不同，從而采用不同的策略的。不能保持完全一致的策略，let alone 更不用說完全一樣的產(chǎn)品和服務。比如：KFC等fast food，在中國都針對口味偏好開發(fā)了很多新產(chǎn)品。
2， Moreover, 地區(qū)差異不會消失，有更深層次的原因on much deeper level。第一，文化的差異，信仰的不同，很難靠產(chǎn)品和服務改變。比如，即使使用最先進的日本Panasonic產(chǎn)的電視，美國人用來傳播transmit democratic principles, while中國人可能用來publicize the thoughts of Mao, or Confucius… 第二，習俗的差異，custom。比如，盡管很多年輕人在中國開始celebrate the Valentine’s Day, 但是在所有中國人心中，最重要的節(jié)日仍然是Spring Festival。這是什么樣的產(chǎn)品都不能改變的。

1， The proponents of this assertion may argue that the natural environment ultimately belongs to each individual person, therefore, it is reasonable to attribute to each person the responsibility for preserving it. a, 必須要承認的是，我們共同使用環(huán)境資源，the condition of the environment may have directly effect on each person。所以，人人都has the obligation to protect the environment from being polluted. b, 只有人人都積極地保護環(huán)境，

1. 有時, 很多問題是全球性的,需要世界公民的角度考慮,而非只站在一國角度. 比如,環(huán)境問題, 能源問題, 等等. 人們應該為整個地球負責任,而不僅僅是為了一個民族或國家. 因為, 如果是后者, 則很有可能只解決自己的問題, 而把危害轉(zhuǎn)移到別的國家. shift the burden and threats from one nation to another…比如: 出口垃圾,比如大量進口發(fā)展中國家的木材.雖然自己的國家暫時解決了問題,但長遠看, 沒有國家孤立地存在, 不能short-sight and narrow mind, 因為interdependent.
2. 但這不意味著人們就要discard or weaken their role as citizens of one nation. 其實兩者并不是incompatible, 更多時候, 可以作為complementary one—and can even be synergistic.比如the preservation of traditional culture, 人們作為一國公民,保護自己獨特文化的同時, 實際上也為全球的diversity of culture作出了positive effort. 比如, 為一個國家的public service付出努力的同時, 很可能激發(fā)起公民的社會責任感和compassion and responsibility, 參與到國際public service 中, 比如很多charitarian就開始從對本國的慈善事業(yè)subsidize the school in one nation也激發(fā)起對attention to the education in the international scope.
View1: people’s role as citizens of the world is become more and more important in the modern society.
View2: Without the awareness of being citizens of a particular country, people will find no roots to behave on the stage of the world.
