　　Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and the assignment below.

　　Some people say, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do," meaning that when you are in a new culture, place, or setting, it is best to change your behavior to adapt to the rules and customs of your new surroundings. But does that old saying still apply in today's world? Isn't the world better off when people facing a change—whether it is a transfer to a new school, the start of a new job, or travel to a foreign country—retain their individuality and way of life instead of changing?

　　Assignment: Should people adapt to their new surroundings, or should they refuse to change? Plan and write an essay in which you develop your point of view on this issue. Support your position with reasoning and examples taken from your reading, studies, experience, or observations.
