What is surprising is that they were suggested by British people themselves as representing their culture If people have such a wrong impression of their own culture, how much false would their impression of other cultures be! If we stay a long time in a foreign country, A we will sometimes forget about culture of our own country B we can often learn a lot about the culture of the foreign country C we will usually realize our own ignorance about its culture D we can seldom find out anything at all about its culture When asked about their own culture, many British people _ A argued they knew little about British culture B gave incorrect answers C said they themselves were not typical of British people D were surprised by the question asked It is easy to _ A know a lot about your own country’s culture B know the culture of other countries C give exact information about your own country D describle stereotype of your country The things that are typical of Britain are A Shakespeare and the Queen B Shakespeare, the Queen, village inns, English folk dancing, English castles, and fish chips wrapped in newspapers C English folk dancing, English castles, and fish chips wrapped in newspapers D Fish chips wrapped in newspapers II Read the passage and choose the option that best completes each space Looking for a job I finished university six months ago, and I’ve got a (1) in business administration I enjoy the course very much although I realize I should have studied a lot harder!
