Why did they have difficulty understanding the American and Chinese ways of doing things?Because they didn’t know the culture.Dialogue 1
Jin Li: When I first arrived in San Francisco, I had a difficult time understanding the American way of doing things. Once I went to visit an American friend. After staying for the whole evening, I was about to leave. But as soon as we said goodbye, my friend went back to his room closing the door behind him. It made me feel that I was not really welcome. Wang Lei: I once had an embarrassing experience in a New York restaurant. I was talking to my American friend Janice at the table when I noticed people staring at us. I asked Janice what was wrong and she told me that I was talking too loud. She said m to some American people, p sound like shouting.
Dialogue 2
Martin: What did I learn from my exciting cultural exchange to China? Well, the Chinese are extremely hospitable. One evening, I was invited to a Chinese family dinner. I had a good appetite and ate a lot of delicious food. My host kept on putting more food in my rice bowl. They didn’t seem to hear me saying ‘No, thank you’. This was a very special experience I had in China. In my culture, you don’t get more food if you don’t ask for more.
Tom: I had a similar experience last time when I visited China. Chinese are the most friendly people I have ever met. After my visit to a Chinese family, my friend’s grandfather wouldn’t let me go to the station alone. He insisted on walking me to the station to see me off, I kept saying that I knew the way myself , but it just did not work. What he did was amazing, this will not happen in many other cultures, I guess. Tina: Chinese people are very modest too. Last time, when I visited China, we saw the tour guide wearing a very pretty coat on the day we left. I told her the coat suited her, but she looked very embarrassed saying that it was a cheap one she had bought a long time ago. I was surprised. In my culture, when we hear this, we will feel very happy and say thanks. Read to learn Are these sentences true ( T ), false ( F ) or with no information provided ( NI ).
