It has often been argued that the United States is a "melting pot" of cultures. Which is the best explanation of what this means
? A) European cultures are allowed to take precedence over other cultures. B) Cultures with undesirable traits have those aspects “melted” out of them. C) People and cultures combine to a degree in which a homogenous culture is created from many. D) While there is a distinctive basic set of cultures, component groups are distinguishable from one another.
I believe it would be C, but D is also an option. America has many cultures and the 'melting pot' term most likely means C, but because I live in America I would consider it more D. I would choose C on your test though.
