Week 5

Last Friday, we studied the culture of Portugal and Brazil. There is some similarity of these two countries such as the architecture and the customs because Brazil is one of the colonies of Portugal.  Hence, these are quite familiar to me since Macau is also the colonies of Portugal. There are some particular things I realized is the Brazilian love dance very much different from Portugal and Macau. The reason is their culture is also affected by Africa.

Michael and KU were the leader of this lesson. The lead us to play a funny game to guess the noun and also gave us a test of individualism and collectivism. In this test, I got a high marks at collectivism. It is very true because I live in a high collectivism society. Lastly, they show us a video of the discussion ways of people in US and Japan. People in the US will say their opinion first. In the contrary, the Japanese prefer to listen and waiting for the idea of the collectives. We can see the diversity straightly.
