Do you have the text? I assume by metaphors they mean concepts like "the melting pot" or "the salad bowl". The latter fits more with the nation.


Yup! By text do you want the taxonomy text in textbook?

[Spoiler]
How I Found Myself by Kari Parker. This story narrates a teenage’s life as a traveller during her High school days. She was inspired by a dream to embark on a journey abroad. Although Kari was a little bit tender as she is the only student from her High School. She went traveling by herself looking for the world and found herself instead.

ANNOYED

"It's not the end of the world." They would always say, constant reminders that the world was so much bigger than the confines of high school life.
I hated hearing that. It was a phrase done to the point where the only response was mimicry, and theirs a scolding look. This phrase was meant for us teens of the 21st century, us teens whose world's ended where the latest school drama began.

DELIGHTED
Sophomore year brought the realization that the world was bigger than I ever could have imagined. All those ___ brochures recommended going abroad young, and, at the age of 16, I did. Traveling abroad was the single most defining moment of my teenage life; it taught me what adults had been trying to say for years.

High school felt so life-defining, but the truth is the world is so big that you can always start over in a place where nobody knows you and your past decisions won’t haunt you.

That lesson alone was satisfying, but little did I know the lessons didn't end there.
Many travels with school and parents later in my life were wonderful and eye opening, but it wasnt until 3 summers ago when one of my adventures played teacher once more.


WORRIED
I convinced myself that all the semester abroad programs they'd been advertising for were too long for me, and the two week summer program at Oxford was no different. I couldn't just up and trapise across Europe, I had too many responsibilities, too many excuses, too much to lose. Yet on the day of the deadline, like a flipping switch, I decided to go. And in mid August I was strapped into an aisle seat, flying over the Atlantic.


My first time travelling abroad was unfamiliar. But I met the other seminar students who I attended classes and later traveled the city with. It was unfamiliar, but it wasn’t lonely.
In fact, that was the travel's lesson this time — just because I was alone didn’t mean I was lonely.

RELIEVED
On my last night in Oxford, everyone was tired. A night of dancing and liquor-infused ice cream sundaes followed by A day of exploring left us exhausted. But I had traveled all the way to the UK alone, eating McDonald’s in my room for dinner wouldn't cut it. And that's what motivated me to get dressed and venture out in search of somewhere to dine. I’d never sat at a restaurant by myself before, the thought scared me. But the fear didn't outweigh the depressing thought of eating McDs in solitude. I found a place -- a dimly-lit, lovely little restaurant whose name I can't recall -- and sat at a table across the bar and observed my surroundings. A wall of pretty-colored liquor bottles behind the bar. The bartender gliding from one end of the counter to the other, taking orders and joking with a patron. Yelps from the large party at the back of the restaurant where only sporadic candlelights lit smiling faces. With so much life around me, I wasn’t alone. No, in fact, I felt comfortable, happy, and happy because I was comfortable. Traveling alone gave me courage. Traveling alone forced me out of my comfort zone. Traveling alone proved that I can do it alone.

COMPASSIONATE
These are things I would’ve never known about myself had I not let all those excuses sink, had I listened to that voice that told me I needed a traveling buddy, that I wouldn't be fine on my own. The lesson wasn’t expected, but it was one I needed to learn. For traveling and for life. I’ll never forget how it felt to depart, sitting in the back of a black car on the way to JFK, excited and nervous for the adventure that before me. And I’ll never forget how it felt to return, having conquered a new fear and having learned another new lesson. Like I had been changed for good. I went looking for the world and I found myself instead.
