Question

1. each student in your class has to give an example that represents the meaning of cultural values in a society. which example best demonstrates cultural values?

when someone breaks the law, they are punished.
people respect the right for everyone to speak their minds.
when people get on the elevator, they generally move to the back.
lots of people choose to wear black to funerals.

Explanation:

Cultural values are the core principles and ideals upon which an entire community exists. They are the shared standards of what is acceptable or unacceptable, important or unimportant, right or wrong, workable or unworkable.

• "When someone breaks the law, they are punished" is more about legal enforcement rather than cultural values.
• "People respect the right for everyone to speak their minds" reflects a cultural value of freedom of speech and respect for others' viewpoints.
• "When people get on the elevator, they generally move to the back" is a social norm (unwritten rule about behavior in a specific situation) but not a deep - seated cultural value.
• "Lots of people choose to wear black to funerals" is a cultural custom (a traditional practice) rather than a value.

Answer:

People respect the right for everyone to speak their minds.
