The so-called Americanization phenomenon seems to be a consequence of the recent globalization in our world. If we find American products worldwide, it is also increasingly common to find Asian products in the United States.
Going to any country in Asia nowadays, we are going to see a lot of the American icons(图标) everywhere. A few years ago when I was in Ho-Chi-Min City, formerly known as Saigon, I was completely astonished at the number of billboards advertising products from multinational companies, many of them American. It is unforgettable for me--the vision of the spectacular Coca-Cola billboard on a Ho-Chi-Min Street.
Living in the United States now, I am discovering many Asian products in America, from food to movies. In one day in San Francisco, or Seattle, or Houston, we can buy Sisheido cosmetics from Japan at the Galleria Mall, have sushi(寿司) and sashimi(生鱼片) in one of the many Japanese restaurants in the city, go to the cinema and enjoy the beautiful American-Chinese movie Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and take home spring rolls from one of the many Chinese restaurants in town.
I understand that a great many people would like to hold back the globalization process in the world because they think they are losing their own culture, but it is very difficult to stop this process. We can only try to be critical and choose what is best for us to have or to buy.
However, many people think that young people are not free to choose when they are constantly exposed to attractive advertisements that are specially made to capture the youth market. Peaceful protests could be arranged just to help people to think about the situation, but the tendency in our world is that we want globalization, but we don’t want to lose our own culture. [br] We can learn from the passage that One of the consequences of globalization that many people worry about is ______.
选项
A、the spread of culture from one country to another
B、the destruction of cultural identities
C、the prevalence of American culture
D、the resistance to globalization worldwide
答案
B
解析
事实细节题。文章第四段首句提到“I understand... because they think they are losing their own culture”(世界上有很多人抵制全球化进程,这是因为他们认为在全球化进程中各国自身的文化会有所丧失)。由此可知,很多人担心全球化的后果是文化特征的丧失,故B项为正确答案。
