Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer
to each of the questions from 33 to 37.
Australians place a high value on independence and personal choice. This means that a teacher or course tutor
will not tell students what to do, but will give them a number of options and suggest they work out which one is the
best in their circumstances. It also means that they are expected to take action if something goes wrong and seek out
resources and support for themselves.
Australians are also prepared to accept a range of opinions rather than believing there is one truth. This means
that in an educational setting, students will be expected to form their own opinions and defend the reasons for that
point of view and the evidence for it.
Australians are uncomfortable with differences in status and hence idealise the idea of treating everyone
equally. An illustration of this is that most adult Australians call each other by their first names. This concern with
equality means that Australians are uncomfortable taking anything too seriously and are even ready to joke about
themselves.
Australians believe that life should have a balance between work and leisure time. As a consequence, some
students may be critical of others who they perceive as doing nothing but study. Australian notions of privacy mean
that areas such as financial matters, appearance and relationships are only discussed with close friends. While people
may volunteer such information, they may resent someone actually asking them unless the friendship is firmly
established. Even then, it is considered very impolite to ask someone what they earn. With older people, it is also
rude to ask how old they are, why they are not married or why they do not have children. It is also impolite to ask
people how much they have paid for something, unless there is a very good reason for asking.
