Culture Diversity
It's so excited that our discussion has moved from scientific evolotion to culture diversity!
If we regard each culture as a beautiful meteor flying across the sky, culture diversity will be the splendid collision of meteors that shines in the darkness. I’ve always believed that even people are driven by perfection in reality; there isn’t anything in the world that is completely flawless. Everything has its strongpoints and shortcomings. So does every culture. The most brilliant person is not the one who forever focuses on his/her own, but the one who adopts other’s strong points while overcoming his/her weak points. Similarly, it is the convergence of different culture that makes continuous process in our world.
I can always remember the first time I felt the power of culture diversity. Students from Yale, kids from an affected area and students from my high school were given a task to put an egg in to a bottle, which neck was smaller than the egg, without smashing the egg or breaking the bottle. Amanda, a student from Yale Yale raised an idea to put a burning candle in the bottle to consume oxygen and create pressure difference. I brought to my mind a boiled egg based on my mum’s breakfast. The local kids were enlightened on the home-made preserved egg( an egg that was processed by ingredients such as black tea, salt, wood ash and stored in the pot for more than twenty days)by his living environment. It was our culture diversity that finally contributed to solve the problem.
