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

参考1:
I have been living in a peace and quiet town for about 10 years. All people around here is so kind,and the landscape is so beautiful that I love this town very much. Recently I heard news that a company will set up a new factory near my community. I was shocked and I hold a negativeopinion about this decision.表示反对

The main reason why I oppose this plan is that establetishing（(sth) up on a firm or permanent basis 建立, 设立（某事物）） a new factory will cause air pollution.
As we know, a factory will give off a lot of waste air which is harmful to people's health. Even though the factory will take measurements to purify the air, it can not make the air as clean as before. It is no doubt that people's health will be affected by the air emitted（If something emits heat, light, gas, or a smell, it produces it and sends it out by means of a physical or chemical process.） from the factory.空气污染

Another reason is that a factory makes too much noise. My community is always a quiet place and this is just what I like the most. A factory will cause the town to become too noisy. For example,every morning, we can be awake（Someone who is awake is not sleeping） from our dreams by the noise of buses which take workers to the factory. The noise of engines will also influence our temper, and may cause us susceptible（ If you are susceptible to something or someone, you are very likely to be influenced by them. ）to anger,and easily lose temper.噪音

Furthermore, a strong reason to oppose this idea is that building a factory will destroy the Landscape（The landscape is everything you can see when you look across an area of land, including hills, rivers, buildings, trees, and plants. ） of this town. Most people living in this town make their living by cultivating（If you cultivate land or crops, you prepare land and grow crops on it. ） and harvesting（When you harvest a crop, you gather it in.） crops. The factory is inappropriate（Something that is inappropriate is not useful or suitable for a particular situation or purpose. ） with the landscape of the town and it will occupy the land that is used to farming.社区以农业为主,占用耕地

Of course, building a factory also has advantages to some extent（You use expressions such as to a large extent, to some extent, or to a certain extent in order to indicate that something is partly true, but not entirely true.）. For example, it will bring more working opportunity for local people, and also it will help developing the local economics. But comparing with the disadvantages, I strongly oppose the idea to build a factory near my community.不否认有好处,但相形之下,缺点多,还是反对态度

参考2:

I support the idea that a factory to be built near our community. I list my reasons as follows.表明支持

Firstly, a new factory near our community helps to improve living standard of people in our community. The factory will employ a lot of workers. As a consequence（The consequences of something are the results or effects of it.）, the unemployment rate will drop significantly. Many people in our community will find a job in the factory. As people's income increases, they will be able to spend more money on their food, clothing and leisure time,and the quality of life will be increased.提高生活水平,增加就业,促进经济发展

Secondly, a new factory will bring prosperity to our community. The tax collected from a factory is an important source of revenue（Revenue is money that a company, organization, or government receives from people. ） for our town. As people have higher income, income tax collected will also be increased. The town will be able to spend more money on infrastructures（The infrastructure of a country, society, or organization consists of the basic facilities such as transport, communications, power supplies, and buildings, which enable it to function.） and other development. Moreover, in order to accommodate（To accommodate someone means to provide them with a place to live or stay. ） more workers, more homes and stores will be needed. This will boost（If one thing boosts another, it causes it to increase, improve, or be more successful. ） real estate（ People sometimes use estate to refer to a housing estate or an industrial estate.）development in our community.基础设施更完善

Some people say that a factory would bring smog and pollution, and destroy the quality of the air
and water in town. This is not the truth. Modern technologies have made today's factories
technology intensive and brought pollutions to the minimum. There are also worries that the social structure of this community will be changed and the traditional life will be affected. We should understand that society needs to evolve and we cannot always stay in the old time.Of course, there will be some drawbacks of building a new factory here. But in my opinion, the benefits outweigh the dangers. I strongly support to build a factory here, and hope that others feel the same way.不排除有害处,但时代要发展,人要进步,还是支持,也希望别人支持.
