Answer and Explanation:
I disagree with Kipling's idea that people from the East and the West are so different that they can't possibly understand each other. It is true that cultural differences may create obstacles to understanding. However, empathizing is a part of our nature as humans. When we keep an open mind, we find it easy to see our similarities instead of focusing solely on our differences. Since we are all human beings, no matter if we are from the East or from the West, we are bound to have something in common (experiences, feelings, fears, problems). That something is enough to generate understanding through empathy.
Alliteration because of the sibilance between the 't' of tale and terror
