It has often been argued that the United States is a "melting pot" of cultures. Which is the best explanation of what this means? A) European cultures are allowed to take precedence over other cultures. B) Cultures with undesirable traits have those aspects “melted” out of them. C) People and cultures combine to a degree in which a homogenous culture is created from many. D) While there is a distinctive basic set of cultures, component groups are distinguishable from one another.
I believe it would be C, but D is also an option. America has many cultures and the 'melting pot' term most likely means C, but because I live in America I would consider it more D. I would choose C on your test though.
