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 28 to 32.
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.
