Language reflects culture so we can say this is one aspect of culture.Then,it is important to learn about culture into the foreign language classroom in order to master the language and the cultural contexts in which the language occurs.
We have to know that effective communication is more than a matter of language proficiency.This involves also cultural competence.So it is necesary to know about culture.Besides,this can lead us to empathy and respect toward different cultures and the society in which the language is spoken.
According to the reading:"Culture must be fully incorporated as a vital componet o f language learning".Because this help us to learn what is appropiate to say to whom,and in what situations.So we as teacher must include in our classroom different activities and using authentic materials for teaching the importance of culture.Cultural information should be presented in a nonjudgmental.We must try to create a neutral space that learners can explore and reflect on their own perspectives to enable them to find their own voices in the second language speech community.

I think it's very difficult to present varying cultural information in a non-judgmental way. The more cultures you know, the more comparisons you are likely to make.
