When bilingual canadian students who were born in china describe themselves in english, they make the positive self-statements typical of canadians. when these same students describe themselves in chinese, their self-descriptions are more typically chinese (that is, more in alignment with chinese values). this difference in thinking is evidence for:
a. telegraphic speech. b. belief perseverance. c. syntax. d. linguistic determinism.

Linguistic determinism

Explanation:

Linguistic determinism is a concept that refers to the idea that language and its structures limit and determine our thoughts and perceptions.  

According to this idea, our thinking and worldview is determined and shaped (or at least influenced) by the language we speak. So the kind of language we use is influenced by the way we see the world.

In this example, bilingual Canadian students who were born in China describe themselves different in English than in Chinese, making statements about themselves that are typical of Canadians or Chinese, aligning themselves with the culture of the language they are speaking.

Thus, this corresponds to linguistic determinism since the language they are speaking changes and influences how they see themselves and therefore, the world.

question - in 1827, john walker, a druggist in a small english town, tipped a splint with sulphur, chlorate of potash, and sulphid of antimony, and rubbed it on sandpaper, and it burst into flame. the druggist had discovered the first friction-chemical match, the kind we use to-day. it is called friction-chemical because it is made by mixing certain chemicals together and rubbing them. although walker's match did not require the bottle of acid, nevertheless it was not a good one. it could be lighted only by hard rubbing, and it sputtered and threw fire in all directions. in a few years, however, phosphorus was substituted on the tip for antimony, and the change worked wonders. the match could now be lighted with very little rubbing, and it was no longer necessary to have sandpaper upon which to rub it. it would ignite when rubbed on any dry surface, and there was no longer any sputtering. this was the phosphorus match, the match with which we are so familiar. according the paragraph what was the benefit of the new phosphorus match? it burst into flame when rubbed on sandpaper. it was made by mixing chemicals. it could be ignited on any dry surface. it threw fire in all directions.

answer - matches required natural chemicals
