11. Look at the pictures below. Then read the article. Why do people say the USA is a melting pot?
Latin Americans
Millions of Americans are of Latin heritage. Their culture is celebrated during Latin American Culture
Week, a ten-day festival which includes Latin music, dance, literature and art. Musicians from countries such
as Mexico, Colombia, Argentina and Brazil give performances, and there are also conferences and
discussions with Latin American authors about their latest books.
African Americans
This culture has a very powerful influence in the USA. African Americans are the third-largest ethnic group
in the country. They have influenced American culture in a lot of different ways, such as fashion, music and
hairstyles - braids and dreadlocks are very popular all over the country.
Asian Americans
It’s impossible not to notice the influence of Asian cultures in the USA. Almost all big American cities have
a ‘Chinatown’ – a district full of Chinese shops where a lot of people of Chinese heritage live. Americans
love delicious Asian food, and there are restaurants everywhere serving traditional food like spring rolls and
sushi.

15. Look again at the vocabulary on activity 7,8,9. Choose three words that are important to you.
For each word:
a. Draw a diagram or picture to explain why this word is important to you.
16. Read this English proverb and write about what you think it means.
‘When in Rome, do as the Romans do.’
_____________________________________________________________________________
17. Read the text. Then explain in your own words what the proverb means. Is there an equivalent
proverb in your language?
In English, people often say ‘when in Rome, do as the Romans do’, or just ‘When in Rome.’ It
means that you should act like local people, when you visit somewhere different. It is said that
this proverb comes from the 4th Century, when the church didn’t permit people to eat on
Saturdays in Rome, but permitted it in Milan, in Italy. Visitors to Milan didn’t know if they
should eat or not, and one visitor asked the advice of Januarius, an important bishop from
Naples. His advice was: ‘When I am in Rome, I do not eat on a Saturday. When I am in Milan, I
eat on a Saturday.’ Over time, this became the expression that we know today.

19. Read the text about living in Colombia. Do you agree with everything that the author says?
Living in Colombia
Have you recently moved to Colombia? Some things will be new and strange for you. But
don’t worry – I’m sure you’re going to have a fantastic time in our country. Let me tell
you about living in Colombia.
One of the most incredible things about living in Colombia is its people. You will feel the
warmth of Colombians – you must be prepared to receive lots of kisses and hugs!
Colombians are also very friendly and sociable. There are a lot of colourful festivals to
enjoy throughout the year. Colombians are famous for dancing – you should definitely try
Salsa or Cumbia if you can. Or watch other people doing it!
Colombians are caring people, and they always give up their seats on a bus to elderly
people or pregnant women. You mustn’t forget to do this, or people might think that you
are selfish.
Colombia has 59 beautiful National Natural Parks, so you don’t have to go into the
Amazon jungle to see some amazing wildlife.
Finally, if you want your family and friends to come and visit you, people from most
countries don’t have to get a visa. Colombia is open to visitors from all over the world.
However, everyone who enters the country must have a valid passport.

d. You don’t have to / mustn’t pay to enter this museum. It’s free!
e. If you want to go to the UK, you mustn’t / have to save a lot of money.
23. Look at the ways of greeting people. Which of these are typical in Colombia, and in which
