Unit 1 跨文化交流中的绊脚石1.为什么我们与来自其他文化的人们的交流总是充满了误会,让人感到沮丧呢?令很多人奇怪的是,即使怀着良好的愿望、使用自己认为是友好的方式,甚至有互利的可能性,也似乎都不足以保证交流的成功.有时候,出现排斥现象正是因为一方所属的文化群体团体是“不同"的。

在这个国际舞台发生重大变化的时刻,探讨为什么尝试交流的结果却令人失望的原因是必要的,这些原因实际上是跨文化交流中的绊脚石。

2.相似性的假设为什么误解或反对会产生呢?这个问题的一个回答就是,大部分的人天真地认为世界上的人有足够的相似之处,可以让我们成功地交流信息或感受,解决共同关注的一些问题,加强商业关系,或者只是产生我们所希望产生的印象。

所有的人都会生儿育女,组成家庭或社会,发展一种语言以及适应他们周围环境的这种倾向特别具有欺骗性,因为它带来了一种期望,这种期望就是这些行为的形式以及围绕这些行为的态度与价值观念将是相似的。

相信“人就是人"和“我们内在本质是相似的",这让人感到心安理得,但是下定决心去寻找证据却只会令人失望.3.力求证明达尔文关于面部表情是共同的这一理论的跨文化研究给人极大的希望,研究者发现脸部的某些看得见的形状,即因愤怒、恐惧、惊讶、悲伤、厌恶、幸福而紧缩的肌肉组合,我们人类各成员都是一样的。

但是这似乎无济于事,只要我们意识到一个人生长的文化决定了这种情感是否会表露或压抑,决定了在何种场合和多大的程度上会表露或压抑。

带来这种情绪感受的情形也因文化而异,例如:由于崇拜的文化信仰不同,一个心爱的人死亡可能带来欢乐、悲哀或其他情感。

4.因为似乎没有普遍的人性可以作为自动理解的基础,所以我们必须把每次交往当作个别案例来处理,寻求任何共同的认知和交流方法并以此作为出发点.如果我们认识到我们受文化的约束,受文化的改变,那么我们就会接受这一现实:因为各自不同,我们确实不太清楚其他人“是”什么样的。

It's long been accepted that women pick out most of the clothes for the family and decide on home furnishings, but this study of 51000U.S.households showed some surprising facets of purchasing decisions broken down by gender. Men defer to women when it comes to choosing movies, restaurants and television shows, according to the survey. The data indicated that women also decide where to sit in a movie theatre, where to shop for food and which guests come to the family home. In fact, the only areas where men had any clout involved personal electronics purchases, the family car and setting household budgets. The gender differences in purchasing could have implications for advertising, media and education companies, said NPD chief analyst Marshal Cohen, who spearheaded the research. "Anyone who's managing a brand, marketing a product or working for an advertising agency needs to be conscientious in the shifts in consumer dynamics," Cohen said.10.I found it hard to identify with any of the characters in the films.11.After months of disappointment, his perseverance was finally rewarded.12.She made her meaning crystal clear.13.Like most married couples they have had their ups and downs, but life is likethat.14.After this cold winter, everyone is yearning for the weather to change.15.This advertisement is calculated to appeal to children.16.This riot is only manifestation of people's discontent.17.Primitive man made himself primitive tools from sharp stones and animal bones.18.The automobile was improved very rapidly after it was invented and soon displaced horses.19.We may have to cut down on the number of privately owned cars and depend more on public mass transit systems because cars pollute and maim or even kill people.20.While wheels have brought with them better or more convenient transportation, they are guilty of many sins, such as air pollution, traffic accidents and traffic congestions.21.Americans are noted for their love for cars and great job mobility.22.If only advances in fuel quality and efficiency and in technology would radically reduce the emissions from automobiles.23.A high developed highway network has made possible the easy movement from coast to coast in the U.S.24.The very thought of the speed at which the beautiful avenue was constructed electrified every visitor; the road had only recently been torn up to lay drain-pipes not long ago.25.Environmentalists have denounced automobiles, believing they are a major factor in the production of dirty air.26.Many new residential complexes have risen up in the suburbs of metropolitan cities because of the availability of convenient public transportation.27.Despite their love for cars, many people lend credence to the extensive use of the public transport system, which can cut down on traffic congestion.。
