Question

【題目】閱讀下面表格的短文，然后按照要求用英語寫一篇 150詞左右的短文。

When in London by tube with mainly English passengers, we tend to sit together in total silence. However, when I traveled in China, people sitting next to me often asked me about my age, salary, and even marriage. They were also willing to introduce themselves as much possible.

On the first day I arrived in China, a Chinese professor invited me to dinner accompanied by his colleagues. After dinner, the professor paid for the meal alone, although the others also offered to pay for it. In Britain, we are accustomed to going “Dutch” while eating in a restaurant.

One day, at a friend’s birthday party, I met with a foreign friend and offered my hand, meanwhile he bowed to me. We were both at a loss for a moment, but soon he seemed to be conscious of something and shook my hand naturally.

Answer 1

【答案】Cultural differences do exist in every corner of the world, where the same behavior often carries totally different meanings when we socialize with people. The three experiences above are typical examples.

It’s not uncommon to witness people’s living habits, values along with customs, which vary widely throughout the world, have led to cultural misunderstandings. Take greetings as a case in point, Chinese people tend to say ‘Have you eaten yet?’, while in western countries, topics are always related to occupations, families, weather and so on. What’s more, when receiving praise from others, foreigners usually show their gratitude with a smile. However, Chinese never fail to pretend to be humble, with a ‘Just so-so’ in response, which is also a convincing proof of cultural differences.

When we are caught in a dilemma to communicate with foreigners, it’s high time that we hold an open mind to embrace different cultures, where, in turn, a critical eye is also needed. We ought to select the good essence of foreign cultures rather than blindly copy them. In short, it’s everyone’ efforts towards the fusion(融合) of cultures that minimize the gap between people.
