Answer:

Among the complaints about the Enlishmen that the author´s grandmother is:

  • The habit of not taking a bath twice a day.
  • That they ate in front of each other.

Explanation:

Ethnocentrism is when people disagree with the culture of other countries, so they have prejudices against people who come from that country. Usually, ethnocentrism is a faithful defense of one's own culture without taking into account what others think; for these people, there are only their values.

For example, we can see that the author's grandmother does not agree that Englishman do not bathe twice a day, and just thinking that they can not bathe is inconceivable to her. All this is because she has other values, customs, and criteria different from the Englishmen but can not accept that it is good to have differences, and this is a clear example of ethnocentrism.

In their study on self-affirmation creswell, welch, taylor, sherman, gruenwald, and mann found that people who confirmed themselves by thinking about their most significant values were better able to cope with the stress generated by a challenging task. In addition, the use of the case study method may lead to unexpected findings that are the source of new and stimulating testable hypotheses and operational descriptions of concepts are important because they provide an objective and reliable basis for communication between scientists.

What do people say winterbourne is doing while not in america?
ratelena [41]
<span>Rather than tell people that Winterbourne is basically having a mistress while away in Geneva, his friends decide to simply just tell people that he is away studying. This also helps to prevent Winterbourne from sounding like the typical rich, idle slacker that people often associate with the wealthy.</span>
