Describe a person you know who is from a different culture
You should say:
Who he/she is
Where he/she is from
How you knew him/her
And explain how you feel about this person
The person I’d like to talk about who is from a different culture is a co-worker of mine called Jez.Jez is from America.We have a lot of exposure to Americans and the key symbols of American culture,from the world of music,cinema and popular culture.One could argue that American world domination has come in the form of commercialism,big business,and a drive for free markets and entrepreneurship.Whatever we may think of America and Americans,of the good things and the bad things–the point is:Jez really is from a different culture to me,and the more we work together the more I realise what some of these differences are.I’ll talk here very concisely about a couple of positive and negative aspects of his culture,the way I see it.Americans seem to be quite open,direct,and general motivated and positive on the surface.They aren’t very reserved really–at least not about superficial things,and at least not in public.They exude a certain confidence,and that can be inspiring and welcoming,too,because they can also be quite positive about others.I’ve had a lot of encouragement from him at work,for example.On the other hand,I can’t help thinking that sometimes he’s a bit simple-minded.At times,it seems that they are too open and outspoken and put on too much of a‘positive face’with everything,and at the same time are too critical of other people’s cultures,and don’t make that much effort to really deeply understand them.So,with Jez,I have experienced both positive and not-so-positive aspects of American culture.I feel good about him,though,he’s a colleague and friend and after all.We have to accept people have different ways in the global world we live in today.
