Now let's proceed to code interpretation. Okay, let's say the quote together. People who are aware of and ashamed of their prejudices are well on the road to eliminating them. You may have some time to think about the quote before you start. Well, ladies and gentlemen, first of all, let's read this sentence.

We can see the core concepts and terms in this sentence as the prejudices and eradicating them. From the term prejudice, we can think of another term, which we call stereotype. Actually, this kind of perception, no matter it's prejudice or stereotype, they all comes from the different opinions towards others. And we see each other's opinion and others' culture, others' ideas from our own point of view, instead of considering their stand and their perception. However, first of all, I think we should admit that we all have differences and it comes from the diversity and then to eliminate this prejudice and the stereotype we can see that we should put ourselves in others shoes to realize the diversity and also try to seek the common ground behind behind it and in this process we realize we are different we admit the

differences we embrace them and that is when we come to realize and be ashamed of our prejudices because when we are ashamed and aware of that we are also thinking of ourselves in this process that they may also consider ourselves the same way we are considering them. So during the intercultural communication what is really important is to put ourselves into others shoes, to switch our positions, embrace our differences and seek for common ground which we say 求同存异 in Chinese because cultures they are always different. In this process with the idea of 求同存异 or seek harmony without uniformity we can try to eliminate such ideas and prejudices or those negative perceptions and also in the process to seek common prosperity and the vision for a shared future for the mankind like contemporary China we

can see during the SEO summit or the BRICS summit we have implemented this idea to eliminating those prejudices and seek for prosperity that are common and shared by our countries in the world thank you
