1 answer:

8 0

The rapid urbanization in Southeast Asia has caused many problems. As the urbanization was way to rapid, and it was not well planned, the urban areas look like everything but urban. The housing problem is huge, as there's not enough for the demand on place, so lot of people live in very small living areas. The basic needs for life, like clean water and electricity are not on good level, often lacking. The environment has been destroyed because of clearing up space, but also after the people have settled, as the garbage and sewage go directly into the closest water bodies. Fertile soil that could have been used for agriculture has been destroyed for building settlements. The badly planned urbanization also led to building on places that are not safe, like places where there are low ground waters and aquifers, places that are always under danger of floods, places that have soft sediments and sink.

The long and continuous history of U.S. interventions happening in the world was most clearly seen in Latin America. Since the emergence of the Roosevelt corollary had prevented European powers for furthering their influence and power in the region.

At the same time a "dollar diplomacy" also provoked that American foreign policy in the Western Hemisphere played a violent and recurrent role where guerrillas and wars of intervention had a colonial character

Which of the following is NOT a positive effect of modernization?

Dvinal [7]

The correct answer is letter D: weaker social relationships.

Modernization brings to the world positive and negative sides.

Long life expectancy, establishment of educational institutions and higher rates of literacy can be considered some of the positive sides of modernization.

The technology has been evolving and it brings lots of discoveries that help humans take better care of their health, hence live longer.

Also, a huge concern is education. Modernization brings new technologies on education, new methodologies, and more educational institutions, which leads to the higher rates of literacy, once people who didn't have the opportunity to study before, get to study nowadays.

But modernization brings negative effects, and we can say that it makes social relationships weaker, once people are always using their cellphones and laptops and don't pay attention anymore to the real world. The modern conversations happen through social media, and not face-to-face, which leads to a society where people are always connected to people that are far away, and disconnected from people that are close.
