Write your answer on the lines below.

 It seems to me that Bucky don't like to learn about other cultures and he believes that his culture is the best.


3. Looking at the cartoon characters.

 

Imagine them in social situations. What kind of people would (would n’t) they associate with? What kind of events (movies, shows) would (would n’t) they prefer to go? Think of other situations.

 

Describe Bucky

 

Bucky is closed mind so he will associate with arrogance people and with those who like to talk about themselves. Bucky doesn't like spending his time in benefit program.    

 

 

Describe the man talking with Bucky. Let’s call him Tom

 

 Tom wants to be a person who likes to share his culture with other and learn the new features from other cultures.

On a separate sheet of paper, make a drawing of Ethnocentrism. You don’t have to draw well.
