"home", but most of them can trace their families back to other parts of the world. If you look at the
names on shop windows, you will see that Americans come from many different lands. The idea that
these people, who once were strangers to the United States, have lost the customs and cultures of their
original countries and have become "American" is really not true. In fact, what exists in America is more
often a kind of "side-by-side" living in which groups of people from other countries often have kept many
of their customs and habits. They join the general American society only in certain areas of their lives-such as in schools, business, and sports-but they keep many of their own native customs and manners socially
and at home. This living "side-by-side" has both advantages and disadvantages. Sometimes it may cause
disagreements to develop between groups whose ways of life are very different from one another.
however, there are also great advantages that come from the variety of cultures brought by settlers from
other lands. There is great freedom of choice among ideas and dress, food, and social customs in
America. Everyone can find some part of his or her familiar world in the United States, in churches, music, food, national groups, or newspapers.

C. they want to make their home there
D. they like that land very much
B. to keep their own customs while sharing American ones in certain areas
C. the groups of people who live nearby
D. that they get closer to American society
B. live in a kind of "side-by-side" society
C. keep their own customs and habits firmly
D. make no choice to accept American customs
B. "Side-by-side" living style is not suitable.
C. They face the society they are not familiar with.
D. The advantages coming from the variety of cultures make life in America colorful.
B. Different Customs and Habits.
C. Home for the People.
D. "Side-by-side" Living Style in America.
