Teacher’s remark mark

<b>I- Read the passage and then answer the questions(1,5)</b>

Many people think that we can learn a lot about the culture of a
foreign country simply by living in that country. However, this is not
necessarily true. Often, the longer we stay in a foreign country, the more we
realize how little we actually know about the culture of that country.

Books and talks about other people’s culture can even be dangerous
because they concentrate on cultural differences and sometimes a lot of
information they contain is untrue.

In a study recently carried out in Britain, people were asked to make a
list of anything that they thought was typical of Britain and would interest a
foreign visitor there. Most mentioned Shakespeare, the Queen, villages inns,
English fork dancing, English castles, and fish chips wrapped in newspaper.
Although all of these characters can be found in British culture, they do not
show the real interests of ordinary British people: (they are, in fact, simply
stereotype - that is, general character which people wrongly think are
typical.) 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 culture be!
