听材料, 回答问题。 Today, we are going to talk about the spread of culture.<br />We all know that throughout history, ideas spread from one culture to another when different<br />groups of people get in touch with each other.<br />However, people don't always adopt new inventions, food and ways of life.<br />Well, why is this the case?<br />One possible reason is the availability of raw materials.<br />For example, a foreigner once introduced a tasty soup.<br />But to make the soup, people would have to use the dried leaves of a special plant that<br />isn't available in this country.<br />That is to say, there's no raw material.<br />What happens next?<br />They would not make the soup a part of their regular diet, even if they enjoyed the taste.<br />The other reason is that if people already have something similar in their own culture,<br />they might refuse the new item.<br />They may feel they don't need two things serving the same purpose.<br />For example, if a traveler introduces a unique musical instrument to a country, but the locals<br />already have their own instrument that produces similar sounds, it's likely that the new instrument<br />will not be widely accepted.<br />Today we are going to talk about the spread of culture.<br />We all know that throughout history, ideas spread from one culture to another when different<br />groups of people get in touch with each other.<br />However, people don't always adopt new inventions, food and ways of life.<br />Well, why is this the case?<br />One possible reason is the availability of raw materials.<br />For example, a foreigner once introduced a tasty soup.<br />But to make the soup, people would have to use the dried leaves of a special plant that<br />isn't available in this country.<br />That is to say, there's no raw material.<br />What happens next?<br />They would not make the soup a part of their regular diet, even if they enjoyed the taste.<br />The other reason is that if people already have something similar in their own culture,<br />they might refuse the new item.<br />They may feel they don't need two things serving the same purpose.<br />For example, if a traveler introduces a unique musical instrument to a country, but the locals<br />already have their own instrument that produces similar sounds, it's likely that the new instrument<br />will not be widely accepted. （1） What is the lecture mainly about?  A .
