Please give us a serene community!

[5] A company has announced that it wishes to build a large factory near your community. Discuss the advantage and disadvantages of this new influence on your community. Do you support or oppose the factory? Explain your position.

A proposal of building a large factory has been released recently. It is said it will provide the community with all the best it could offer. But I don't think it will do us any good.

The factory will of course take a certain proportion of its profit for our community, with which the community could provide its residents with better gyms for exercising, better parks for taking a walk and even a better library with more books. And the manager of the factory promises to give priority to the youth here looking for a job. The comparatively cheap production could be sold to the residents too.

All those proposals sound great, except what the factory will impose upon us. It takes so much space that we have to spare them part of our public park. The noise it inevitably produces will drive crazy everyone in the park for a nap or just a short walk. The exhaust and dregs of production, though under strict surveillance, would still be a haphazard to our environment, let alone those trees we would lose when being cut down to build the factory. And the ingredients the factory requires have to be transported by large trucks, which will burden our roads and sending annoying noise in the morning, awaking those of us who would like to be still asleep.

Further more, it's not necesary to find a job in such a factory. Most of the youth living here work in IT companies. So the factory will seldom recruit someone who is meant to work in such an atmosphere. The money we pay to our community is enough to accommodate ourselves. If necessary for special events, we are all willing to donate extra to help set up something like a festival celebration.

So, it is unnecessary to build a factory that would provide us absolutely indispensable joy or facility. The promise they make, though intriguing, would only disguise the profit they make for themselves and the trouble we all have to tolerate. What we all need is just a community immune to noise and pollution.
