Unsung hero: how culture influences movies and
storytelling
¹ Have you ever been immersed in a film, TV show, or book
and thought, "Wow, this feels so Japanese"? (or American, or
French, or Chinese…?) There are so many ways our cultures
differ when it comes to storytelling! A culture's values and
beliefs shape the very foundation of their stories, from their
underlying ideas and themes to the individuals who inhabit
their worlds.
² Maybe you’re familiar with "The American Dream": the
hope of achieving success through hard work, determination,
and initiative. Because U.S. culture values self-reliance and
personal autonomy, stories often focus on a single
protagonist who has to overcome personal challenges and
external obstacles to succeed. In the end, the hero is
transformed and emerges a stronger, more resilient version
of themselves.
³ Even imagining what a hero should be reflects the values
and beliefs of each society, and nearly every culture has their
own brand of hero! For example, back in Japan, heroes often
prioritize the greater good over their own desires,
showcasing the importance of duty and self-sacrifice in
Japanese culture. In Britain, heroes are often characterized
by their honor, chivalry, and intelligence (think: Sherlock
Holmes and Hermione Granger). British heroes often
showcase their wit, wisdom, and willingness to stand up for
what's right. In South Africa, heroes are celebrated for their
courage, resilience, and commitment to justice.

Examine the following statements about ‘Text 4’:
I. The text indicates that the culture's influence on a story acts on its popularity, themes and characters.
II. A way of paraphrasing paragraph 2 could be: U.S protagonists tend to grow stronger and through personal challenges because American culture seems more selfish.
III. By exemplifying British heroes as witty and wise, the text implies other countries' heroes are not as smart or valued by their cleverness.

In an effort to attract younger Hispanic voters, campaigns
are turning to Spanglish
¹ Mayra Alejandra Rodriguez is used to seamlessly toggling
between Spanish and English in conversation. If she doesn’t
know the Spanish version of a word, she’ll use the English,
and vice versa. The mishmash, known as Spanglish, comes
naturally. Those around her understand her, at least most of
the time.
² The Silver Spring, Md., resident is the kind of young
Hispanic voter attracting increasing attention from political
operatives who advocate that campaigns use the blended
language in advertising and other outreach as the 2024
election cycle accelerates.
³ The language — a portmanteau of English and Spanish that
blends words, grammar and dialects from both tongues — is
growing in popularity in the United States as the country’s
Hispanic population grows. Currently, 19 percent of the U.S.
population identifies as Hispanic, a new high according to the
Pew Research Center, which also found that 63 percent of
Hispanics in the United States speak Spanglish at least
sometimes in their day-to-day life. Forty percent say they
speak it often.
4 Operatives who are urging campaigns to reach young
voters in Spanglish argue that its use not only reflects the
nation’s changing demographics, but is also a way to meet
voters with a lingo that feels more familiar and approachable.

Examine the following statements about ‘Text 1’:
I. In: ‘Those around her understand her, at least most of the time.’, the repetition of her is necessary, since ‘those around her’ occupies the place of the subject in the sentence, while the other ‘her’ is the indirect object.
II. In: ‘The Silver Spring, Md., resident is the kind of young Hispanic voter attracting increasing attention from political operatives.’, the ‘Md.’ inserted between The Silver Spring and resident breaks syntax order by separating its nominal group.
