Culture is passed on from one generation to the next through communication. Thus, culture refers to beliefs in a(36)supreme being, to attitudes toward success and happiness, and to the values placed on friendship, love, family, or money, since these are (37) transmitted through communication.
    Parents, (38) peer groups, schools, religious institutions, and government (39) agencies are the main teachers of culture. One new (40) instrument for spreading culture is the Internet. Because the Internet, although world wide, is so (41) dominated by the United States and by the English language and idiom, "Some countries," notes one media watcher, "already unhappy with the (42) aggression of American culture are worried that their cultures will be further (43) eroded by an American dominance in cyberspace".
    A different process of learning culture is acculturation(文化互渗), (44) the process by which you learn the rules and norms of a culture different from your native culture. Through acculturation, your original or native culture is modified through direct contact with a new and different culture. For example, when immigrants settle in the United States, the host country, their own culture becomes influenced by the host culture. Gradually, the values, ways of behaving, and beliefs of the host culture become more and more a part of the immigrants culture. (45) At the same time, the host culture changes, too, as it interacts with the immigrants’ culture. Generally, however, the culture of the immigrant changes more. The reasons for this are that the host country’s members far outnumber the immigrant group, (46) and the media are largely dominated by and reflect the values and customs of the host culture.
