Read the passage and do the tasks that follow

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 involved 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 cultures. Having our own judgement could lead us to discriminate other cultural values which are different from our own because we do not understand them.

Culture diversity is important because we can increase our level of understanding about other cultures by interacting with people outside of your own culture- meaningful relationships may never develop simple due to a lack of understanding.

Learning about other cultures also helps us understand different aspects in the world, and helps remove negative stereotypes and personal biases about different groups.

In addition, culture diversity helps us recognize and respect other ways of life that are not necessary our own, so that as we interact with others we can build bridged to trust, respect, and understanding across cultures.

Culture diversity supports the idea that every person can make a unique and positive contribution to the larger society because of, rather than in spite of, their differences. Imagine a place where diversity is recognized and respected; various cultural ideas are acknowledged and valued, contributions from all groups are encouraged to achieve their full potential, and differences are celebrated.
