The Ten CommandmentsMoses called together all the people of Israel and said to them, "People of Israel, listen to all the laws that I am giving you today. Learn them and be sure that you obey them. At Mount Sinai the Lord our God made a covenant, not only with our fathers, but with all of us who are living today. There on the mountain the Lord spoke to you face-to-face from the fire. I stood between you and the Lord at that time to tell you what he said, because you were afraid of the fire and would not go up the mountain."The Lord said, 'I'm the Lord your God, who rescued you from Egypt, where you were slaves."Worship no god but me.""Do not make for yourselves images of anything in heaven or on earth or in the water under the earth. Do not bow down to any idol or worship it, for I am the Lord your God and I tolerate no rivals. I bring punishment on those who hate me and on their descendants down to the third and fourth generation. But I show my love to thousands of generations of those who love me and obey my laws.""Do not use my name for evil purposes, for I, the Lord your God, will punish anyone who misuses my name.""Observe the Sabbath and keep it holy, as I, the Lord your God, have commanded you. You have six days in which to do your work, but the seventh day is a day of rest dedicated to me. On that day no one is to work—neither you, your children, your slaves, your animals, nor the foreigners who live in your country. Your slaves must rest just as you do. Remember that you were slaves in Egypt, and that I, the Lord your God, rescued you by my great power and strength. That is why I command you to observe the Sabbath.""Respect your father and your mother, as I, the Lord your God, command you, so that all may go well with you and so that you may live a long time in the land that I am giving you.""Do not commit murder.""Do not commit adultery.""Do not steal.""Do not accuse anyone falsely.""Do not desire another man's wife; do not desire his house, his land, his slaves, his cattle, his donkeys, or anything else that he owns." 注：《十诫》选自《旧约》的“申命记”（Deuteronomy）。中世纪以来，在基督教教会的极力推行下，“十诫”成为传统西方社会的道德准则，对西方文化产生了深远的影响。如果把它的具体内容同中国文化的传统价值观作一比较，我们不难发现它们之间存在着明显的异同。一方面，中西文化泾渭分明。前者表现出入世的、宽容的特征，如孔子不谈“怪、力、乱、神”，中国人“见神就拜”，相信“八仙过海，各显神通”；后者则表现出强烈的出世与排他倾向，这一点在第1—4诫中可以看出。另一方面，中西文化也具有共同的道德追求，第5—10诫可以为证。当然，当代中西文化均已发生很大变化，这一点，还望读者明察。

1Father And Son As related to Absalom and Achitophel Absalom and Achitophel begins in the world of Old Testament history. The vague biblical past of the opening lines lets the narrative to be set from 2 Samuel in a wide historical frame that hopes to legitimize the king's promiscuity by associating the king as father of the land: In pious times, e'r priestcraft did begin, Before polygamy was made a sin; When one man on many multiplied his kind, Ere one to one was cursedly confined; When nature prompted and no law denied Promiscuous use of concubine and bride; Then Israel's monarch after Heaven's own heart, His vigorous warmth did variously impart To wives and slaves; and, wide as his command, Scattered his Maker's image through the land. (l. 1-10) The association between God and David is made through the clever comparison of divine and human fertility. There is some irony in seeing God's abundant creation reflected in the king's sexual extravagances, but the irony doesn't reduce the status of the king. It serves, at the beginning of the poem, to separate the person of the king from the office of the king. The opening scenes emphasize David as an indulgent father, not as head of the country. David's pleasure in Absalom parallels God's attitude toward Adam in the Garden. All of Absalom's motions are accompanied with grace, And paradise was opened in his face. With secret joy indulgent David viewed His youthful image in his son renewed: To all his wishes nothing he denied; And made the charming Annabel his bride. (l. 29-34) The easy going nature of Absalom, put together with the specific reference to paradise, help establish him as the figure from Eden that will be seen again in the temptation. The characterization of David emphasizes a combination of divine and human paternity. Like God, David takes great joy in his creation; like God, he supplies Absalom with a worthwhile bride. This serious presentation of David in his fatherly joy and indulgence, as compared to the divine model, cannot be taken as criticism of the king. It strengthens the casual relationship between God The emphasis is on David's paternal indulgence. The initial presentation of David and Absalom closes with a declaration of the calm of David's reign: Thus praised and lived the noble youth remained, While David, undisturbed, in Sion reigned. Next, Achitophel calls Absalom the country's cloudy pillar, guardian fire, and second Moses (ll. 233-35). All three are familiar biblical signs; and the pillar and fire are promised in Isaiah as signs of god's renewed presence among the Israelites (Isaiah 4:5). The typical signs that Achitophel mentions have general biblical meaning and would have been persuasive for Absalom, the biblical prince. In convincing Absalom of his messianic role, Achitophel portrays David as an old man with declining powers and as a fallen Lucifer: Had thus old David, from whose loins you spring, Not dared, when Fortune called him, to be king, At Gath an exile he might still remain, And heaven's anointing oil had been in vain. Let his successful youth your hopes engage; But shun the example of declining age; Behold him setting in western skies, The shadows lengthening as the vapors rise. He is not now, as when on Jordan's sand The joyful people thronged to see him land, Covering the beach, and blackening all the strand; But, like the Prince of Angels, from his height, Comes tumbling downward with diminished light. (ll. 262-274) There is a great deal of irony in this, warning of Achitophel's deceptive persuasion. Hoping to convince Absalom of the practicality of a "pleasing rape upon the crown" (l 474), Achitophel associates David's old age with his supposed political impotence. Achitophel attempts to remove the kingship and the question of secession from the authority of Heaven and the law of God by falsifying the account of David's return from exile. According to Achitophel, David was called from Gath by fortune; according to the Bible, he was called from exile by god and anointed by Heaven. Achitophel's argument makes the sanctity of heaven dependent on the arbitrary role of fortune's wheel, whose prizes must be grabbed. In the context of biblical history, that ethic obviously contradicts the moral code and world order implied by God's written law. The end of Achitophel's description is the simile "like the Prince of Angels," used to epitomize David's decline. Achitophel chooses this image to contrast the descending, faltering light of David's kingship with the rising royal planet of Absalom's aspirations; but the use of this simile reveals more than the wordy resemblance. By identifying Godlike David with Satan, Achitophel joins forces with the devil himself as a defamer of God. As the picture of David comes to a close, Achitophel characterizes David's impotance more subtly. Asserting that David is powerless to resist Absalom's claim to the throne, Achitophel asks, "What strength can he to your designs oppose, / Naked of friends, and round beset with foes?" (l. 279-80). The second line of the couplet alludes to Samson and suggests the description, from Milton, of Samson being blind among his enemies: Betray'd, Captiv'd, and both my eyes put out, Made of my enemies the scorn and gaze; . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Blind among enemies, O worse than chains, Dungeon, or beggary, or decrepit age! (Samson Agonisties ll. 33-34, 68-69) There are two ways of reading this allusion back into Achitophel's portrait of David. The most obvious is that Achitophel unknowingly predicts the final triumph of David as a Samson figure who wreaks havoc on his enemies and asserts the force of God's law. especially Christ among enemies and false friends. That relationship also suggests the final victory of God over Satan and all antichrists. Moreover, David as paralleled with Samson, given the typical relationship that both Old Testament figures bear to Christ, plays off nicely against David's own reference to Absalom as a false Samson, a pretend Messiah: If my young Samson will pretend a call To shake the column, let him share the fall. (l 955-56) The couplet works in two ways, characterizing Absalom's revolt and messianic claim as a 'fall' and ironically opposing it to the true messianic 'call' and 'fall' to sacrifice and death which Samson, as type of Christ, exemplifies. The words of Achitophel and the drama of his temptation of Absalom characterize the two figures and confirm the original relationship that has been established between David and God. Throughout the poem that relationship is reconfirmed by association, by direct assertion, and by the fallen characters' version of what is asserted to be the true order of things. Those reconfirmations of David's relationship with God - especially the increasing emphasis on David's kingly role - work to transform David from private father to public king. Once more the godlike David was restored, And willing nations knew their lawful lord. (l. 1030-31) 2A Son's Love for His Father A son’s love for his father is sometimes not acknowledged until he is an adult. Children often become so wrapped up in their own tasks and obligations that they take for granted the simple acts of loving support given to them by their parents. And parents sometimes feel scared that obvious signs of love and emotion will scare off a child, so they just do all they can to make the child’s life run smoothly and try to fade into the background when it comes to tender moments. In the poem “Those Winter Sundays,” Robert Hayden uses figurative language and other literary devices to show a father’s love for his son as well as the son’s realization of that love. The cold that Hayden describes in the house is a reoccurring hardship that the father must face in his life. “Sundays too my father got up early and put on his clothes in the blue black cold,” (lines 1-2, stanza 1). The father woke up early on his treasured time off from work to make sure that the house was warm for his son. The cold is described as if it were a tangible item causing the reader to be drawn in to the poem. “No one ever thanked him.” (line 5, stanza 1). This quote illustrates the fact that the father did this not for praise or to make himself look better in the eyes of his son, but because he would rather compromise his own comfort and enjoyment then have his son start the day off in the cold. Hayden uses figurative language to bring alive the cold and to make it seem like more of an enemy for the father. “fearing the chronic angers of that house,” (line 4, stanza 2). The son is speaking of the dreaded cold, which he wishes that he did not have to face just as much as the father. It shows that the father was really making a contribution towards the happiness of the son by making the effort to rid the house of it. “…and hear the cold splintering, breaking.” (line 1, stanza 2). In this line, Hayden uses imagery to represent the fire that the father builds which helps to defeat the cold. The splintering and breaking are the sounds of the logs being burnt and, as the son finds later, the cold dying. Flashback is used to show the true reason behind the father’s acts and the son’s subsequent comprehension of his father’s true feelings. “…driven out the cold and polished my good shoes as well. What did I know, what did I know of love’s austere and lonely offices?” (lines 2-5, stanza 3). The son realizes here that his father did the things that he had always simply thought of as done. He looks back and sees how much his father must have done for him without being acknowledged. Throughout the poem, Hayden uses the imagery and other forms of figurative language as well as flashback techniques and a consistent setting to paint a picture for the reader about the relationship between the father and son. He describes how the father shows his affection for his son and how the son takes that in. At the end of the poem, the son contemplates his father’s motives and finds the true emotion behind the father’s actions. 3Father and Son Relationship in Hamlet Hamlet, of the play, Hamlet, by William Shakespeare, is a young man with many distinctive characteristics. He is the loving and beloved son of Hamlet, the deceased King of Denmark. He is talented in many ways, as actor, athlete, and scholar. Prince Hamlet draws upon many of his talents as he goes through a remarkable metamorphosis, changing from an average, responsible, young Prince to an apparently mad, raging son intent upon avenging his father’s untimely death. In the beginning of Hamlet, the Prince behaves as any normal person would following the death of a loved one. Not only is this a loved one, but an extra special someone; it is his loving father whom he adored. Hamlet is grief stricken, depressed, and even angry that his mother remarried so soon after his father’s death. Having witnessed how his father had treated his mother with great love and respect, Hamlet cannot understand how his mother could shorten the grieving period so greatly to marry someone like Uncle Claudius. He is incapable of rationalizing her deeds and he is obsessed by her actions. Throughout the play Hamlet is in constant conflict with himself. An appearance of a ghost claiming to be his father, “I am thy father’s spirit”() aggravates his grief, nearly causing him to commit suicide and leaving him deeply disgusted and angered. Upon speaking with his ghost-father, Hamlet learns that his uncle-stepfather killed Hamlet the King. “The serpent that did sting thy father’s life Now wears his crown”() Hamlet is beside himself and becomes obsessed with plotting and planning revenge for the death of his father. Hamlet struggles constantly, trying to decide how he should go about avenging the loss of his father to his deceitful uncle-stepfather. Planning to kill him isn’t easy. Hamlet is given many opportunities to kill Claudius, but keeps stalling for time to be certain the ghost had spoken the truth about the murder. Finally, Hamlet decides upon a plan. “the play’s the thing/Wherein I’ll catch the conscience of the King”(). He will stage a performance for the King that would actually be a reenactment of his father’s murder. The play he chooses to reenact is entitled "The Murder of Gonzago" with a few changes made to accommodate Hamlet’s new lines and actions reflecting Claudius murdering his father. Upon seeing Claudius’s crazy behavior during and following Hamlet’s play, Hamlet realizes that his ghost-father had spoken the truth. This provides all the reassurance needed for Hamlet to carry out his plot to kill Claudius. Hamlet appears insane throughout the play, but only to the unwary eye. “As I perchance hereafter shall think meet To put an antic position on”(). He has put on this act to throw off his uncle’s spies. Though Hamlet is obviously intelligent, his character uses his talents as he evolves through many changes from a normal young prince to a grief-stricken, loving son of a beloved father to an apparently madman. Any son who possesses such intense feelings and goes to such great lengths to avenge his father bears testimony to an endearing father-son relationship. A son must have utmost respect and undying love for his father to carry out such a vigorous retaliation. Hamlet gives his life in the pursuit of justice, as he knows it. What more could a ghost ask of anyone? 4The Father and Son Relationship in Song of Solomon The book called Song of Solomon, by Toni Morrison, deals with many real life issues, most of which are illustrated by the relationships between different family members. One archetypal relationship that Morrison includes in her book is the father:son relationship. Although it is obvious that Morrison does talk about this topic, it is not so obvious what she is trying to say about it. So, one might ask, how does the author establish the father:son relationships throughout Song of Solomon and do they fit some sort of archetype? To answer a question such as this, it would be beneficial to examine the actual father:son relationships throughout the book. One established father:son relationships that is significant to this issue is the one between Milkman and Macon. From the start, Macon objected to Milkman even being born; he forced Ruth to do things to her body that could possibly kill the fetus. With a little help from Pilate, however, Milkman was allowed into the world. Macon, perhaps instigated by never having a mother and seeing his own father killed, has always appeared to be a cold and unforgiving parent even to his other children besides Milkman, but since Macon heard that his son¹s nickname was ³Milkman² he has seen him as a symbol of his disgust for his wife and lost a lot of respect for his son and became even colder towards him. The only time Macon did spend time with Milkman, he spent it boasting about his own great upbringing, warning him to stay away from Pilate and telling him about the embarrassing actions of Ruth. This is the manner in which Morrison establishes the relationship between Macon and Milkman in the first part of the book. As Milkman grows up, he recognizes the emotional distance between his father and himself. He goes his own way with a few skirmishes here and there and later he even manages to hit his own father. As Macon and Milkman grow apart and go their separate ways, Milkman doesn¹t even think twice about it and just continues on with his life as if nothing was different. Near the end of the book Milkman seems to change his view of his father, with some help from the positive memories of the old men in the passage. Milkman grew up thinking that his father was a cold-hearted, hot tempered control freak who was only interested in gaining money and property. He came to realize that although there was some truth to what he thought, Macon was not inhuman. This is displayed in the passage when it states, ³His own father¹s words came back to him: ŒI worked right alongside my father. Right alongside him.² Even though Macon was against Milkman¹s birth, he came to cherish his only son in his own way. Probably under the impression that showing affection was a sign of a weak man, Macon held back what feelings he had for his son. Milkman¹s feelings about his father¹s shows of affection are described when Morrison writes, ³Milkman thought then that his father was boasting of his manliness as a child. Now he knew he had been saying something else.² One of the few good memories that Macon had of his father was spending time working alongside his father. Milkman finally figured out that Macon¹s description of his time spent working with his father were meant to as a show of affection for Milkman and to cause Milkman to see the similarities between Macon¹s relationship with his father and Milkman¹s relationship with Macon. Milkman¹s revelation is explained, ³That he loved his father; had an intimate relationship with him; that his father loved him, trusted him, and found him worthy of working Œright alongside¹ him.² He most likely remembers gaining a great amount of respect for his father by learning and watching how his father made a living. Milkman now saw that all those times that he spent with Macon down in the workshop and being taught how to run a business were his father¹s mild way of showing love. When Macon would tell Milkman about how he worked right alongside his father, he wasn¹t bragging about how masculine he was when he was little, he was attempting to describe the only real time he ever had an intimate relationship with his father. Macon shared what he had with his father with his son. Milkman now realized that there was some substance to his relationship with his father and that it wasn¹t completely disfunctional. It is not clear whether Toni Morrison intended this part of the storyline to fit an archetype, but no matter what she intended, it does. It is the common story of two related characters who never really appreciate each other, or do appreciate each other but separate and never really discover the true value of their relationship with the other character until it is too late can be found in this book.

雅思写作范文：

In many metropolises around the world, especially in English speaking countries, it is not surprising to see people from different ethnics or cultures living and working together. How this comes into existence and what influence this exerts on our society will be discussed as follow?

在世界各地的许多大都市，特别是在讲英语的国家，来自不同种族或文化的人们在一起生活和工作并不奇怪。这是如何产生的，它对我们的社会有什么影响?

Such co-existence of races in many major cities can largely be attributed to modern transportation and telecommunication technologies, to be specific, airplanes， computer and the internet. This advancement increases mobility of human and promotes communication and interaction between people without limitation of space and time. The earliest and most obvious representation lies in the globalization of trade and business which expand beyond the national border and facilitate people involved to immigrate permanently or live overseas temporarily. Some countries like USA or Australia have tradition of immigration and they welcome distinctive cultures and ethnics or at least they tolerate differences well. In these places, multi-culture is the embodiment of a high level of civilization.

在很多大城市中，种族的共存很大程度上可以归因于现代交通和通信技术，具体地说，飞机、计算机和互联网。这种进步增加了人的流动性，促进了人与人之间的交流和互动，不受时间和空间的限制。最早和最明显的表现在于贸易和商业的全球化，这种全球化扩展到超越国界，并促进有关人员永久移民或暂时住在海外。像美国或澳大利亚这样的一些国家有移民传统，他们欢迎独特的文化和种族，或者至少他们能容忍差异。在这些地方，多元文化是一个高度文明的体现。

Of course melting pots have caused some concerns or problems. Races with different religions sometimes collide due to misunderstanding of other cultures. The dominant culture may have the tendency of assimilating or marginalizing other minor ethnics, leading to the young immigrated generation being confused with their cultural and political identity. Multiculturalism aimed at establishing an egalitarian society is deemed by some people to be over simplistic and idealistic.

当然，融合引起了一些关注或问题。由于不同文化的误解，不同宗教的种族有时会发生冲突。主流文化可能具有同化或边缘化其他少数民族的倾向，导致年轻移民一代被混淆于他们的文化和政治身份。哪些建立平等主义社会的多元文化主义被一些人认为过于简单化和理想化。

However, this trend of globalization seems impossible to reverse and trying to deny it would not be as wise as to keep pace with it. Cultural diversity is believed to stimulate open-mind of people and the creativity and innovation of a society due to accommodation and communication of different ideas, therefore enhancing productivity and prosperity of a society in both economic and cultural terms. Looking back human history, brilliant ancient civilizations always featured a high level of inclusiveness of exotic cultures and religions.

然而，这种全球化趋势似乎不可能逆转，试图否认它并不如跟上它的步伐那样明智。人们认为，文化多样性能促进人们的思想开放，促进社会的创造和创新，这是由于不同思想的容纳和交流，从而在经济和文化方面提高生产力和社会的繁荣。回顾人类历史，灿烂的古代文明总是以高度包容异域文化和宗教为特征。

To conclude this essay, the integration of cultures and ethnics in many areas in the world reflects the desire of human beings for widening their horizon and exploring the unknown world and this in turn accelerates more contact between distinctive cultures and ethnic groups. Human society would be more dependent on each other and realizing this sooner would be helpful for us to adapt to the current trend.

最后，在世界上许多地区的文化和民族的融合体现了人类的眼界和未知世界的探索，这将促进独特的文化和民族之间的联系。人类社会将更加彼此依靠，实现这一点有助于我们适应当前的趋势。

It is widely acknowledged that in many places worldwide, different races live in the same place with the same method of grouping peoples benefits in many aspects; however, it also brings about some conflicts racially. Personally, it is not a choice but a must to create and maintain a multi-cultural society for mu ti-racial nations.

Admittedly, to ensure the security of the community, it is effective to divide different groups of peoples into different regions in the same city, which does reduce the conflicts of races to some extent. However, with the isolation of distinctive groups, it is much easier for the races whose beliefs are opposite to the others to ignite hostility against the others.

Establishing a multi-cultural society has at least three benefits: First and foremost, it promotes understanding between in the same place and experiencing the same lifestyle make peoples remit others' aggressive behaviour , it is colorful for people to live under the circumstance of multi-cultural society. With various kinds of cultures, people may and will enjoy the mixed culture consisting of peoples from all kinds of traditions. Taking New York City for example, it is always said that the Big Apple is a “Melting Pot” of all cultures. Lastly, the barriers or the gap between two different peoples are nothing but living in the same community, it is impossible for anyone to eliminate discrimination amongst peoples.

In conclusion, it is better to create and maintain a multi-cultural society with multi-racial in this way can people enjoy the high levels of civilization from all peoples.

众所周知，在世界很多地方，不同的民族拥有同一国籍并生活在同一地区。这种民族群体生活方式有很多好处。然而，它同时也产生了民族冲突。个人认为，为多民族创建并维护一个多元化社会势在必行。

必须承认，为确保社会安全，在同一城市内将不同民族划分成为不同区域是行之有效的方式。从某种程度上这的确可以减少民族冲突。然而，由于各特殊民族的孤立划分，很容易让某些民族信仰相对立的民族引起彼此之间的仇恨。

建立多元化社会至少包含了三个方面的好处：第一，也是重要的一点是可以增进民族间的相互理解。生活在同一地区，经历相同生活方式，能使各民族逐日宽容其他民族激进的行为。第二，生活在多元化社会下，人的生活是丰富多彩的。伴随各种各样的文化，人们可能并将会享受到由多民族组成的多元文化和其中的各种传统。拿纽约来说，总被提到“大苹果”(纽约别称)是个文化大熔炉。后，两个不同民族间的障碍其实就是固有的偏见和成见。如果没有生活在同一社区，任何人都不可能消除民族之间的歧视。

参考范文

It is believed that multicultural environments bring many advantages for many people, since the variety of races, cultures and traditions will make the country become unique and attractive. Although, multicultural societies have some negative issues, but I do believe that the positive sides are greater than the negative ones.

On the one hand, countries that have multicultural communities have some similar problems. Firstly, it is common that discrimination would have been the main issue. Some groups of people feel that their races are the most superior one; therefore they would underestimate certain kinds of races. Secondly, there is always a debate about religious activities, as some groups might have extreme faith in their religions and would annoyed other believes. One of the classic examples would be about the debate of religion in Israel between the Jewish and the Palestinian, which have caused so many casualties.

Despite of all the drawbacks, multiculturalisms will bring many advantages for the government and the people, if they are well managed. Multicultural societies makes the city become alive and fascinating, as some sides of city shown Asiatic cultures, while on the other side it show Western civilizations. This situation makes the city become unique, and would attract tourists from many parts of the world. As a result, it will boost the tourism industry, create a lot of employments and generate income tax for the governments. There are many multicultural cities that are well known, such as Sydney, Toronto and Singapore and they are considered as advanced cities, due to the proper management of its local government.

In conclusion, it is undeniable that multicultural environment has its own advantages and disadvantages. In my point of view, I do believe that multicultural societies have more benefits than its drawbacks, if they are managed properly by the government.

2018年雅思写作大作文范文：多元文化在不同的民族和文化背景下，随着经济和文化的全球化继续成为主流，在这个新时代中并不少见。这是一种必然的趋势，我认为应该更加乐观。

It is not uncommon in the new era that people with different nationalities and cultural background mingle together, as the globalization of economy and culture continue to become mainstream. This is an inevitable trend and I deem that it should be embraced with more optimism.

The interaction between citizens of diverse cultural backgrounds is likely to add more spice to the modern life. People coming from various countries lead quite distinct lifestyles due to different living habits and cultural heritage. The diversity of culture can bring continuous feeling of freshness and a novel, exotic experience to those who have no former access to the other cultures. Take New York for example, it is a noted metropolis renowned for its multitude of cultural complex and a bunch of cultural genres, which are the fusion of different ethnic groups’ beliefs and cultural outlooks. The residents in New York can hardly feel bored with the monotonous life because they are more accessible to a cultural melted pot.

Besides, a multicultural society is more tolerant. It is true that the openness of one country is closely related to how diverse the culture is for the reason that mutual understanding and empathy are the foundation of peaceful co-existence. Thus, the dissent is inclined to be set aside in order to gain more consensus and the society will become more open to the less dominant cultures.

As for the dark sides of multicultural trend is rather limited but still worth mentioning. One most conspicuous drawback might be the threat to the local culture, especially when other foreign cultures are too aggressive and dominant. But this problem can still be handled if some precautious measures are carried out.

To conclude, the exchange of different cultures is the unavoidable tendency and both individuals and the society as a

whole can be beneficiaries.

多文化社会，包括不同人种的混合，给国家带来的好处比坏处更多。你在何种程度上同意或反对?

抛砖：

多民族、多文化国家通常会比较有趣。各种民族有自己不同的文化，不同的生活习惯，因此多民族国家里我们可以看到各种各样的文化现象和生活习惯。即使是发生文化冲突，也会经常让人有新鲜感。

多民族国家里，各个民族的人思考方式不同，可以互相启发，有利于发明创造。比如在美国，大学和研究生院里集合了全世界各地的优秀学生，非常有利于技术创新。而且，各个民族有自己擅长的领域，比如爱尔兰人喜欢政治，犹太人擅长经商，中国人擅长科研，德国人在机器制造上领先，而瑞士人擅长精密制造，大家能各尽所长，更有利于经济发展。

虽然多民族国家可能会有种族冲突，但总体上讲有利于经济发展。
