Question

A. While a person adapts to a new place, the culture of the place from which he came also changes.
B. While a person must adapt to a new place, his culture also changes the culture of the place.
C. When the culture of a place changes, its citizens move to other places.
D. When the culture of a place changes, the cultures of other places also change.

Answer 1

The correct answer is B. While a person must adapt to a new place, their culture can also influence and change the culture of the place they are moving to. Cultural change is not just a one-way process but rather a two-way exchange where both the individual and the larger cultural communities can influence and shape each other. This interaction and exchange can lead to new cultural practices, beliefs, and traditions that reflect the diversity and complexity of human experience.
