Помогите пожалуйста написать сочинение Do you think it is a dangerous thing to judge about a nation by existing stereotypes? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

Answer 1

Each people have the steady ideas of other people. When "the typical Englishman" or "the typical German" speak, mean quite certain character. As a rule, existing cultural images are formed by literature, cinema, stories of those who visited the country, and mass media. Formation of similar stereotypes is connected also with long historical process of communication: people with each other. Most often images of other countries are ambiguous, inconsistent and include both traditional stereotypes, and modern representations.
For example, British are proud of that considerably differ from any other nation of the world. They to these holes adhere to strange customs, such, as left-side movement or game in cricket. They very reluctantly passed to decimal system of measures, having changed the adored pints for liters, and inches on centimeters. Till 1971 at them the wild three-level not decimal monetary system according to which the account for a dinner could look as "four pounds six shillings and seven and a half pence" worked. And though other Europe measures distance in kilometers, British still cling to the miles though now they buy fabrics in meters, instead of yards. Logic - not the most outstanding line of the British character.
