主题语境:文化　语篇类型:说明文　词数:299　难度:★★★☆

Meeting people from another culture can be difficult.From the beginning,people may send the wrong signal (信号).Or they may pay no attention to signals from another person who is trying to develop a relationship.

Different cultures emphasize (强调) the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree.For example,business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust.Even with people at work,it is necessary to spend a lot of time in “small talk”,usually over a cup of tea,before they do any job.In many European countries—like the UK or France—people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants or cafés rather than at the office.

Talk and silence may also be different in some cultures.I once made a speech in Thailand.I had expected my speech to be a success and start a lively discussion;instead,there was an uncomfortable silence.The people present just stared at me and smiled.After getting to know their ways better,I realized that they thought I was talking too much.In my own culture,we express meaning mainly through words,but people there sometimes feel too many words are unnecessary.

Even within Northern Europe,cultural differences can cause serious problems.Certainly,English and German cultures share similar values;however,Germans prefer to get down to business more quickly.We think that they are rude.In fact,this is just because the culture starts discussions and makes decisions more quickly.

People from different parts of the world have different values,and sometimes these values are quite against each other.However,if we can understand them better,a multicultural environment will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other.

【语篇解读】本文为说明文。作者主要介绍在不同的文化背景下,人们具有不同的价值观,如何才能做到更好地理解彼此。

A.develop closer relations

C.get to know each other

D.keep each other company

A.the English prefer to make long speeches

B.too many words are of no use

答案D

解析细节理解题。根据第三段前两句“Talk and silence may also be different in some cultures.I once made a speech in Thailand.”可知,作者提到在泰国的例子就是说明“谈话”“沉默”体现不同的文化。

6.How can people from different cultures understand each other better?

A.By sharing different ways of life.

B.By accepting different habits.

C.By recognizing different values.

D.By speaking each other’s language.

答案C

解析细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中的“However,if we can understand them better,a multicultural environment will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other.”可知,对不同价值观的理解有助于不同文化背景的人的彼此理解。
