This question is incomplete, here´s the complete question.  

Read “The Sacred Rac” by Pat Hughes.

Why do cultures like India and the asu put such a value on things like rac and cow?

Answer: Both cultures consider those animals to be sacred, as part of their religious heritage and a fundamental element of their culture.

Explanation:

While the cow is considered sacred in India, the rac is sacred for the Asu tribe. Owning and caring for a rac is a social obligation and a symbol of wealth and prestige. The sacred animal is even part of the puberty rite which initiates youngs into the ceremonies involved in the care of a rac before allowing them to own one.

Despite the difficulties of this tradition, the Asu tribe considers it crucial to the strength of their culture.

Ame three supernatural powers that people thought witches had.
bulgar [2K]
In Shakespeare’s time people believed in witches. They were people who had made a pact with the Devil in exchange for supernatural powers. If your cow was ill, it was easy to decide it had been cursed. If there was plague in your village, it was because of a witch. If the beans didn’t grow, it was because of a witch. Witches might have a familiar – a pet, or a toad, or a bird – which was supposed to be a demon advisor. People accused of being witches tended to be old, poor, single women. It is at this time that the idea of witches riding around on broomsticks (a common household implement in Elizabethan England) becomes popular.

There are lots of ways to test for a witch. A common way was to use a ducking stool, or just to tie them up, and duck the accused under water in a pond or river. If she floated, she was a witch. If she didn’t, she was innocent. She probably drowned. Anyone who floated was then burnt at the stake. It was legal to kill witches because of the Witchcraft Act passed in 1563, which set out steps to take against witches who used spirits to kill people.

King James I became king in 1603. He was particularly superstitious about witches and even wrote a book on the subject. Shakespeare wrote Macbeth especially to appeal to James – it has witches and is set in Scotland, where he was already king. The three witches in Macbeth manipulate the characters into disaster, and cast spells to destroy lives. Other magic beings, the fairies, appear in A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Elizabethans thought fairies played tricks on innocent people – just as they do in the play.

Misperceptions can lead to miscommunication. List an example from the article.
melomori [17]

Misperceptions can lead to miscommunication when there is a negative bias towards someone.

  • Misperception brings about miscommunication because when there's an incorrect interpretation about a particular thing, it leads to miscommunication.

  • Misperception simply means an incorrect interpretation. It's a mistaken belief or interpretation about a particular thing.  On the other hand, miscommunication is when there's a failure for a person to communicate properly with others. It should be noted that misperception can result in miscommunication.

  • For example, poor listening skills or negativity bias effects can lead to misperception, and this further causes miscommunication.
