A We have not identified many risk factors associated with heart attacks B We now fully understand how risk factors trigger heart attacks C We not fully understand how risk factors trigger heart attacks D We recently began to study how risk factors trigger heart attacks Read the following passage carefully and then choose the best answer to each question In most discussions of cultural diversity, attention has focused on visible, explicit aspects of culture, such as language, dress, food, religion, music, and social rituals Although they are important, these visible expressions of culture, which are taught deliberately and learned consciously, are only the tip of the iceberg of culture Much of culture is taught and learned implicitly, or outside awareness Thus, neither cultural insiders nor cultural outsiders are aware that certain “invisible” aspects of their culture exist Invisible elements of culture are important to us For example, how long we can be late before being impolite, what topics we should avoid in a conversation, how we show interest or attention through listening behaviour, what we consider beautiful or ugly- these are all aspects of culture that we learn and use without being aware of it When we meet other people whose invisible cultural assumptions differ from those we have learned implicitly, we usually not recognize their behaviour as cultural in origin Trang - Mã đề thi 134 VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phí Differences in invisible culture can cause problems in cross-cultural relations Conflicts may arise when we are unable to recognize others’ behavioral differences as cultural rather than personal We tend to misinterpret other people’s behaviour, blame them, or judge their intentions or competence without realizing that we are experiencing cultural rather than individual differences Formal organizations and institutions, such as schools, hospitals, workplaces, governments, and the legal system are collection sites for invisible cultural differences If the differences were more visible, we might have less misunderstanding For example, if we met a man in a courthouse who was wearing exotic clothes, speaking a language other than ours, and carrying food that looked strange, we would not assume that we understood his thoughts and feelings or that he understood ours Yet when such a man is dressed similarly to us, speaks our language, and does not differ from us in other obvious ways, we may fail to recognize the invisible cultural differences between us As a result, mutual misunderstanding may arise Câu 55: What is the main purpose of the passage? A To describe cultural diversity B To point out that much of culture is learned consciously C To explain why cross-cultural conflict occurs D To explain the importance of invisible aspects of culture Câu 56: The word “rituals” in paragraph is closest in meaning to A cultures B formalities C assumptions D aspects Câu 57: The phrase “the tip of the iceberg” in paragraph means that _ A visible aspects of culture are learned in formal institutions B most aspects of culture cannot be seen C other cultures seem cold to us D we usually focus on the highest forms of culture Câu 58: Which of the following was NOT mentioned as an example of invisible culture?
