Alright class, let's move on to our second activity. This is a matching exercise. I want you to look at the screen. On the left, we have the names of five students from our reading passage. On the right, we have their different opinions about culture. Your task is to match each student with their correct opinion. For example, as we can see from the lines, Li Fang believes that culture includes our values, beliefs, and behaviours. Now, please take a moment to review the text again and check if you can make the correct matches for the rest. Let's see if you can get them all right!

In my opinion, culture goes beyond festivals and delicious food. It is related to our beliefs and society.
What is culture in your opinion?
Post-reading
Yes, exactly. Our ideas of politeness come from our culture.
That sounds good. So does culture determine how we behave and how we treat others?
Post-reading
Sure. But there are also many differences.
Are there any similarities between different cultures?
Post-reading
Well, we greet people in special ways. That is part of our culture. What about your idea?
What examples can you see in our daily life?
Post-reading
I think culture is everywhere around us. It influences almost everything we do.
So we should try to understand and respect different cultures.
4 Do you feel any difference when you travel to a new place? Why? Use your own experience as an example to explain it.
Post-reading
Last year, I travelled to Xishuangbanna in Yunnan. I felt great cultural differences there. These differences are related to local people’s beliefs and traditions. Culture determines how people behave. The differences go beyond special food and colourful clothes.
I visited traditional Dai bamboo‑houses. They are built high above the ground to stay cool in hot weather. I also enjoyed the beautiful Peacock Dance and tasted delicious pineapple rice. Besides the Water‑Splashing Festival, these are important parts of their local culture. I found some similarities with our customs, but many differences too.
Different environments creates different culture. We should learn to respect all kinds of local cultures.
