b. we will experience culture shock
c. we will have to learn many new languages
d. people will make assumptions about you

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Option a: Assuming differences can lead to isolating oneself from others as it creates barriers in interactions.
• Option b: Culture shock is due to new cultural experiences, not assuming differences.
• Option c: Assuming differences doesn't force learning new languages.
• Option d: The question is about the negative effect of our assumption, not others' assumptions about us.

So the correct option is a.

Answer:

a. we can isolate ourselves from others
