Answer:

a. "Why won’t you look me in the eye when I am talking to you!"

Explanation:

In sociology, the term ethnocentrism refers to the phenomenon by which we measure other cultures based in the standards that we use in our own culture and therefore <u>this stops us from understanding other culture's norms and traditions.</u> In other words, we look at the world through the perspective of our own culture.

In this example, the option that has to do with judging one person based on the norms of our own culture would be a. "Why won’t you look me in the eye when I am talking to you!" since <u>in some cultures, looking to one person in the eye is considered a disrespectful sign </u>and <u>this person is judging the other one and getting upset because the other person is not looking at him/her in the eye when it's probably because of the different cultures they belong to. </u>
