Q21. What does this clip tell us about the spread of global culture?

Diversity means differences such as different religious beliefs, different cultural traditions, music, art, dancing etc. In the context of society and

culture, diversity is usually mentioned in discussing multicultural societies. What do people from other cultures contribute when they

migrate and become part of a new society. Why should these different traditions and customs be valued? They enrich a society because they

allow people to experience different thinking processes, to see that there is more than one way of approaching issues or living one's life.

 Q24. Read the story below about the squares, circles, triangles and the rectangles. Add a suitable ending to the story based on the acceptance

of diversity and the benefits of a multicultural society.

At last one of the Rectangles became so angry that he leaped into the air and came down right on top of the Circles. Oh, Wonder of Wonder! Everyone was absolutely quiet. No one said a word! They just looked and looked and looked. The Rectangles and the Circles had made a wagon! A lovely beautiful wagon!

And then everyone became excited. They all wanted to make something. The Squares and Circles made a train. A Rectangle made the smokestack. Some Circles made smoke. The Triangles and Rectangles made trees.

They all worked together and made a lovely house. They made things that were pretty. (e.g., sun, boat, Jack-in-the-box, houses, and flowers). They made things that were fun. Everyone had a wonderful marvellous, beautiful time. When it was time to go home, they all sang a little song! "We are glad, glad, glad! Being different isn't bad!" and they sang it over and over, all the way home.

The End.

Prejudice is when you don't like somebody just because of a label or preconceived notion. When you make a determination about someone's worth based on their race, gender or the crookedness of their teeth rather than actually getting to know them you are acting with bias which is also called prejudice. Prejudice can be based on almost anything, like religion or hair colour or what kind of music you listen to. Q25.
