Two nurses are discussing appropriate care of culturally diverse populations and a nurse has made the point that the United States is diverse but anglicized. Why is the United States considered to be anglicized?
A) Because English financial institutions have the most economic influence in the United States
B) Because political relations between Britain and the United States have been traditionally cooperative
C) Because United States culture evolved primarily from the early English settlers
D) Because English is the official language of government at all levels
C
Feedback:
The US culture can be described as anglicized, or English-based, because it evolved primarily from its early English settlers. Language use, economic influence, and political relations are not the justification for the fact that US culture is described as anglicized.
