Multiculturalism
多元文化论
Multiculturalism is everywhere today. As the world gets smaller, multiculturalism becomes bigger. Few of us today live in towns in which there is only one culture. Today, we live in towns where we are surrounded by many other cultures. If we live in a city, we will see people from all over the world. Of course, some cities are more multicultural than others. New York is a real melting pot. It is called the most multicultural city on Earth. A city like Tokyo isn't so multicultural. I think multiculturalism is a great thing. It's fantastic walking out of your door and seeing other cultures. This didn't happen when I was young. People didn't understand other cultures. They didn't even want to understand. I'm glad things are changing today.
今天，多元文化无处不在。随着世界变得越来越小，多元文化主义变得越来越大。我们今天很少有人住在只有一种文化的城镇里。今天，我们生活在被许多其他文化包围的城镇里。如果我们住在城市里，我们会看到来自世界各地的人。当然，有些城市比其他城市更具多元文化。纽约是个真正的大熔炉。它被称为世界上最多元文化的城市。像东京这样的城市并没有那么多元文化。我认为多元文化主义是伟大的。走出自己的家门，看到其他文化，感觉棒极了。我年轻的时候没有这样的经历。人们不了解其他文化，他们甚至不想去理解。我很高兴现如今情况有所改变。
