PART C_2

America is truly a melting pot of the world’s ethnic groups. Roughly 80% of Americans are considered “white,” 13% are African American, and 4.5% are “Asian.” The rest are natives of Alaska, Hawaii, or another Pacific island. About 15% of the population come from Spanish-speaking countries. These people come from places like Spain, Mexico, and Central or South America. In fact, most people in America have immigrant backgrounds. A typical “white” person in America might be part British, part German, and even part Italian. To be “American,” then, is to be a mixture of ethnic groups.

Question:
First, read the following passage about “melting pot” and “salad bowl.” Then, based on your understanding of the concepts, describe how Japan is doing as far as the issue of immigration is concerned.

The USA has traditionally been referred to as a typical case of a “melting pot.” Generations of immigrants have melted together. They have abandoned their cultures to get assimilated into mainstream society. Today, however, cultural diversity is considered a positive thing globally, and people of different cultures try to live in harmony in much of the world. This model of racial integration is called a “salad bowl.” In a bowl of salad, the lettuce, tomatoes, and carrots come together, but they do not lose their unique features.
