Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each
of the question.
Culture is the lens with which we evaluate everything around us; we evaluate what is proper or
improper, normal or abnormal, through our culture. If we are immersed in a culture that is unlike our
own, we may experience culture shock and become disoriented when we come into contact with a
fundamentally different culture. People naturally use their own culture as the standard to judge other
Trang 2/3 - Mã đề 504
cultures; however, passing judgment could reach a level where people begin to discriminate against
others whose “ways of being” are different than their own-essentially, we tend to fear that which we
do not understand.
Cultural diversity is important because our country, workplaces, and schools increasingly
consist of various cultural, racial, and ethnic groups. We can learn from one another, but first we must
have a level of understanding about each other in order to facilitate collaboration and cooperation.
Learning about other cultures helps us understand different perspectives within the world in which we
live and helps dispel negative stereotypes and personal biases about different groups.
In addition, cultural diversity helps us recognize and respect “ways of being” that are not
necessarily our own, so that as we interact with others, we can build bridges to trust, respect, and
understanding across cultures. Furthermore, this diversity makes our country a more interesting place
to live, as people from diverse cultures contribute language skills, new ways of thinking, new
knowledge, and different experiences.
