Globalisation and the fashion industry
Grammar
Globalisation has influenced every industry, and the
E 1 C 4 A 7 C 10 B 13 B
fashion industry is no exception. In fact, it has had

means that we don’t have as much control over

This scenario may seem like science fiction, but it

may become a reality. A cashless society would

First, the benefits of a cashless society include
convenience first and foremost. For instance, you

could use your credit or debit card or an app on

result, you wouldn’t need to worry about having

enough cash. Additionally, cashless societies would
4 B 12 C 20 B 28 C 36 C
mean lower crime rates. For example, when people
5 D 13 D 21 C 29 B 37 D
don’t carry cash, there are fewer instances of

pickpocketing or other street theft. Similarly, if
7 B 15 A 23 B 31 A 39 B
shops do not have cash in their tills, there is no

incentive for thieves. In this way, the number of
robberies is reduced.
