Step-by-step explanation:

The cultural myths that are prevalent in our society are George Washington and the cherry tree. In this myth, George Washington, the first president of the United States, chops down his father's cherry tree in his backyard when he was a child. Washington's father was very angry, but he knows that telling the truth is the right thing to do, so he told his father the truth. His father was upset, but admired George's honesty. It is said that this honesty is what got him so far and made him end up as the first president of the United States.
