• Sequence 4: Being a multiculturalist.I. Reading Activities (1) Read the following text carefully.
Each society has its own customs, social habits andbeliefs. They give people a sense of who they are supposed tobehave and what they should or should not do. When people visit or live in a country for the first time,they are often surprised at the differences that existbetween their own culture and the culture of the othercountry. That is why it is important to understand and appreciate cultural differences. Being a multicultural person will help you have a positive experience.
A multicultural person is someone who can adapt successfully to living in a culture different from his own. The sort of person we could describe as a citizen of the world or a member of the global community. In my opinion, there are four key qualities to be a multicultural. -The first is to be open- minded. This means you should not judge one culture as better than another or believe that the way thingsare done in your culture is the best way or the only way of doing things. In other words, don’t be an “ethnocentric”.
-Second, you must be adaptable. To live successfully in another culture, particularly in one that is very different from your own, you have to adapt to differences, not only visible differences of food, climate and customs but also to invisible differences- the different ways in which people of other cultures understand and interpret the world and their differentvalues. -Third, you ought to be sensitive. That means you should be able to see things from the other person’s point of view and avoid doing things that people of another culture might find strange, unacceptable or offensive, even if in your culture, such things are normal.-Fourth, you must be interested in othercultures. Try to learn their language,find out about their country, and developa real understanding of their culture.
1. Read the following advice and write them in the appropriate column.a) It is important for you to observe and understand what is going on.b) Think that some cultures are better than others.c) Respect other religious beliefs.d) Try to learn about cultural differences and understand them.e) Avoid discussing with other people because they have different cultures.f) Speak and behave without taking into consideration other people’s cultural habits.What a multiculturalist What a multiculturalistshould do shouldn’t do1 ……………………... 1 ……………………...2…………….………… 2……………………...3 ……………………... 3 ……………………...Social Customs Around the World

World citizenship by Garry Davis On 25 may, 1948, in Paris, France Garry Davis (26) a former Broadway actor and US. bomber pilot of World war 2, renounced his exclusive citizenship in and allegiance to the United State of America. At the same time he publicly declared himself at the world. “All human being born within the territorial limits of the home planet Earthshall be ipso facto world government citizens.”Since the sixteenth century there has been a belief that universal principlesshould exist to institute a world- wide justice, hence the idea of a common worldcitizenship; a given fact which you practice daily without realizing it. Common “world law”” give rise to the notion of a
common world citizenship; a given fact which you practice daily without realizing it. Hospitality to the guest, sympathy for the underdog, love in all its forms, sharing food, keeping clean, aid for aged, young and infirm collecting garbage, seeking truth, all are evidence of cooperative “world laws”. Those who tried to expand these world laws were often considered asidealists, utopians, sentimental humanitarians, then came the 20th century.Electricity and electronics eliminated time and distance as barriers betweenhumans. Today, with Computers and Satellites, that is, withvirtually no distance and no time between humans, eachperson is a part of a global world community. Everythinghappening in the world affects, sooner or latter, eachindividual. A middle East war raises the price of oil for everyone;an atomic bomb exploding in the south pacific can meanleukaemia for a baby born in Dayton, Ohio; dumpingradio-active waste off the coast of Florida can mean radio-active first caught by fishermen off the coast of island,Great Britain, France or Spain; a shortwave radio placedanywhere on the surface of the globe receives a babble ofvoices-and ideas- from all corners of the world community.
Everything is happening at once and everything ishappening to every body. This is the most revolutionaryfact of our century. Universal world citizenship, then, is the only dynamicidentity capable of reconciling the human being with theplanetary community.There is no other pathway to the future…and to the stars.
1. Now, answer these questions:a) How long has the idea of one world existed? ……………………………………………b) Give some examples of universal values. ……………………………………………c) What are the things helped the planet Earth become a global community? …………………………………………...2. Which definition corresponds to the word “citizen”? Definition A: people without boundaries who do not owe allegiances to one single community, nationality, religious grows or ethnicity, and who work to strengthen the world community. Definition B: people who identify themselves as members of their own community, who give priority to their religious group, ethnicity and who think it is important to improve their own community………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
II. Mastery of Language.Read the Credo of “world citizen”. Rewrite it using: “should” or “ought to”. 1. Be a peaceful and peacemaking individual both in daily life and contact with others. …………………………………………………….. 2. Be just and equitable to all fellow humans. …………………………………………………….. 3. Respect the view points of his fellow citizens from anywhere in the world. …………………………………………………….. 4. Be aware of his responsibilities and rights as a legitimate members of the world community. …………………………………………………….. 5. Show commitment to universal values. ……………………………………………………..
Note: credo means statements that express a belief or rule that a particular person or group has.III. Writing Activities.Some people think that a citizen should be “a model citizen” that is a citizenserving his own community. Others think a citizen should be “a world citizen”that is a citizen working to strengthen the world community. Which position doyou agree with? Why ?
Start like this:A world citizen…1) should be or ought to be a peaceful and peacemaking individual both in daily life and contact with others.2)……………………………………………………….3)……………………………………………………….4) ……………………………………………………….5)……………………………………………………….
Remember: • We use must/have to express necessity and/or when giving commands. eg. 1. you must obey the law. 2. you mustn’t park your car here. 3. you have to respect others. • We use should/ought to for giving advice. eg. 1. you should join a green association. 2. you shouldn’t buy CFs products. 3. you ought to share food with poor peopleNote -must is stronger than have to -must is used by people in authority -Ought to is a little stronger than should but should is the most common modal for giving advice.

Read the following text Major Achievements of the United Nations The United Nations was established after the Second World War to helpstabilize international relations and maintain peace in the world. Here, in brief, isa sampling of what the United Nations organizations have accomplished since1945 when the world organization was founded.
1. Maintaining peace and security – By deploying peace-keeping forces and observer missions in conflictual areas, the United Nations has been able to restore calm to allow the negotiating process to go forward.2. Making peace - Since 1945, the United Nations has been negotiating many peaceful settlements that have ended some conflicts in the world.3.

• Sequence 2: I. Reading Activities Read the following extract and then do the exercises that follow. Palestine and the Occupied Territories The UN General Assembly voted the original partition of Palestine in November 1947 and the UN deployed its first peace-keeping forces to monitor the ceasefire lines after the war of 1948. For many years, successive Israeli governments refused to consider a Palestinian state. In the 1970s both sides began to recognize the need for compromise. The Palestinians proposed a separate state, claiming as their homeland the territories occupied by Israel in the 1967 war. This idea found support in the international community, and Israel was called on towithdraw from this land according to UN Security Council Resolutions 242and 338. Since resolutions, the Security Council has taken nosignificant steps to end the Israel-Palestine conflict. Israel's 1967 occupation of other territories complicatedthe matter. Key issues that stop the \"peace process\" include:Israel's occupation,, sovereignty over Jerusalem, and the right of return ofPalestinian refugees.
