B
A government banning foreign films to protect local cinema
C
A traditional craft losing its meaning due to mass production
D
A region's culture being overshadowed by dominant global brands
Understanding the Answer
Let's break down why this is correct
Answer
A good example is when a small town in Mexico adopts the rhythm of hip‑hop but uses the traditional mariachi guitar to create a new style called “mariachi‑rap. ” The musicians keep their language and instruments, showing that global music can inspire new local sounds instead of erasing old ones. This shows that cultural globalization can give local artists new tools while still keeping their identity. The result is a fresh, popular music that locals love and that attracts tourists, boosting the local economy. Thus, globalization can enrich rather than replace local culture.
Detailed Explanation
A local dance troupe gets worldwide attention through a global talent show. Other options are incorrect because The idea that banning foreign films protects culture is a misconception; Thinking that mass production always destroys meaning is a misconception.
