the differance between new world and europeans

the two country can agree to some extant.for example Gertrude is not satissfied with her strict severe american puritanism.when she is introduced to her europeans relatives,felix and eugenia,she gets attracted to their culture.she like Eugenia's waysof speaking and behaving and her task in decorating as well as felix painting and his scdene of beauty and art.thus she accepts europeans culture.second,though felix is very happy with his euopeans standard,he accepts new world value.he is fascinated with their simplicity and good hospitality and system of value.therfore, we can say that felix and gertrude can live in happiness with their differant cultures
