第一次跨文化交际的经历作文

第一次跨文化交际的经历作文

第一次跨文化交际的经历作文《我的第一次跨文化交际经历》“哇,妈妈,你看那个外国小姐姐好漂亮呀!”我拉着妈妈的手,眼睛直勾勾地盯着前面不远处的一个外国女孩。

那是一个阳光明媚的周末,我和妈妈正在公园里玩耍。

公园里热闹非凡,有放风筝的,有踢毽子的,还有一群老爷爷在下棋。

而我,却被那个外国小姐姐吸引住了。

她有着一头金色的长发,像瀑布一样垂在肩上,蓝色的眼睛犹如深邃的湖水。

她穿着一条漂亮的碎花裙,在阳光下显得格外迷人。

我忍不住走上前去,用我那蹩脚的英语说道:“Hello,nice to meet you!”小姐姐先是一愣,然后微笑着回答道:“Nice to meet you too!”哇,她的声音好好听呀,就像鸟儿的歌声一样清脆。

“Where are you from?”我继续问道。

“I'm from America.”小姐姐回答道。

“America!That's so cool!”我兴奋地说道,“Do you like China?”“Of course!China is a very beautiful and friendly country.”小姐姐笑着说。

我们就这样你一言我一语地聊了起来,虽然我的英语不是很好,但小姐姐一直很耐心地听我说话,还时不时地纠正我的发音。

妈妈在一旁看着我们,脸上露出了欣慰的笑容。

她走过来对我说:“宝贝,你真棒!能和外国小姐姐聊得这么开心。

”“嘻嘻,妈妈,我觉得和她聊天好有意思呀!”我笑着说。

这时,小姐姐从包里拿出了一块巧克力,递给我说:“Here you are,a little gift for you.”“Thank you so much!”我高兴地接过巧克力,心里像吃了蜜一样甜。

时间过得真快呀,转眼间太阳就要落山了。

小姐姐说她要回家了,我们互相道别。

“Bye,hope to see you again!”我挥着手说道。

“Bye,have a nice day!”小姐姐也挥着手说道。

有关跨文化交际英文作文英文,Cross-cultural communication is an essential aspect of today's globalized world. It involves interacting with people from different cultural backgrounds, which can be both enriching and challenging. Let me share some personal experiences to illustrate this.Once, during a business trip to Japan, I encountered a situation that highlighted the importance of understanding cultural nuances. In a meeting with Japanese colleagues, I noticed that they often nodded their heads while I was speaking. Initially, I interpreted this as agreement or understanding. However, later I realized that nodding in Japanese culture doesn't always signify agreement; it can also indicate attentiveness or politeness. This misunderstanding led to miscommunication, as I assumedtheir agreement when they were simply being courteous. This experience taught me the significance of interpreting non-verbal cues accurately in cross-cultural communication.Another instance occurred during a cultural exchange program in Brazil. While conversing with locals, I noticed they often stood close to me and used expressive gestures. At first, I felt uncomfortable with the proximity, as personal space boundaries vary across cultures. However, I gradually adapted and even found it refreshing to engage in such close, animated conversations. This experience taught me the importance of respecting and adapting to different cultural norms, even if they initially seem unfamiliar.中文,跨文化交际在今天全球化的世界中至关重要。

跨文化交际的英文作文

跨文化交际的英文作文

跨文化交际的英文作文English:Cross-cultural communication is an essential aspect of our globalized world. It involves interactions between people from different cultural backgrounds, where language, customs, beliefs, and norms can vary significantly. Successfully navigating these interactions requires understanding, respect, and adaptability.One significant challenge in cross-cultural communication is language barriers. For instance, during my travels in China, I encountered a situation where Istruggled to convey my dietary restrictions to a local chef. In English, I requested a vegetarian dish, assuming itwould be understood. However, the chef seemed perplexed,and I realized my mistake. I then tried using basic Mandarin phrases I had learned, such as "wǒ bù chī ròu" (我不吃肉), meaning "I don't eat meat." This helped bridge the communication gap, and the chef was able to prepare asuitable meal.Another aspect to consider is non-verbal communication. In many cultures, gestures, facial expressions, and body language convey meanings as much as words do. For example, a firm handshake is often seen as a sign of confidence and respect in Western cultures. However, in some Asian cultures, a softer handshake may be more appropriate, as a firm grip can be perceived as aggressive. Understanding these nuances is crucial for building rapport and avoiding misunderstandings.Moreover, cultural differences in communication styles can lead to misunderstandings. For instance, in some cultures, direct communication is valued, while in others, indirect communication is preferred to maintain harmony. During a business negotiation in Japan, I found that my straightforward approach was met with silence and nods, which I initially interpreted as agreement. However, upon reflection, I realized that my Japanese counterparts were being polite and non-confrontational, and their silence indicated they were considering my proposal rather thanagreeing outright.In conclusion, effective cross-cultural communication requires patience, empathy, and an open mind. Byrecognizing and respecting cultural differences in language, non-verbal cues, and communication styles, we can foster mutual understanding and build stronger relationshipsacross borders.中文:跨文化交际是我们全球化世界中至关重要的一部分。

My experiences of intercultural communication我的跨文化交际经历

My experiences of intercultural communication我的跨文化交际经历

My experiences of intercultural communicationI’m a Chinese student, living with Chinese people around me, so I have few opportunities to do with foreigners. While fortunately, I’m an English major, I have to face foreigners sooner or later and for that reason, I need to practice communicating with people from other culture. And I do have.My first contact with a foreigner took place when I was a high school student. It was a sunny day, and our school was holding a sports meeting. The nuclear family with a lovely girl were seated, watching the running race when I found no seat except one next to theirs. My legs worn out so that I was eager to sit down and enjoy the wonderful match. I wanted to sit next to them. But the point is, I was afraid that if I say something wrong in English, they might think me as a freak. After all, I knew little about their culture then. I just knew they were from the US and the parents taught in our school as foreign teachers. Finally, my tiredness pushed me to walk to them. “Mind if I sit there?” I asked with care, hoping that I did n’t say anything wrong, though there were only five words. “No, not at all. Sit down, please.” Said the mother. I sighed with relief, and replied “Thank you.” Then I could watch the race seated, relaxed. I’m grateful to the family for their politeness. Although I did not talk much with them, I could feel their kindness.As English majors, we have foreign teachers. One of them is called Greg. He is an outgoing, easygoing and humorous guy. He doesn’t give class to us, but somehow I joined a reading club organized by him. Every weekend, members of the club go out to visit a Suzhou garden or just talk about what we’ve read during a week over a cup of coffee. I remember the first time we went out together. We v isited the Liu Garden. We introduced Chinese culture to him on seeing some antiques, and he was quite interested in it. What surprised me most was that he knew a lot of Chinese words, even some modern Internet slangs such as “Fu Er Dai”, referring to those whose parents are rich. He kept asking questions like a curious kid. We tried to answer him even with some strange words. Luckily, due to his teaching experience in China, he could understand us. What a clever big boy!When it comes to gardens , I once came across a gentleman while I was visiting the Zhuozheng Garden with my uncle, anut and my little sister who was a one-year-old baby. The gentlemen was in front of us when we were lining up to have tickets checked. He turned around and said to me “Beautiful girl and cute baby. A happy family!”And then a big s mile. I s miled back to him, saying “Thanks”. Maybe he was an American, I supposed, according to his accent. And he give me an impression that American people are kind-hearted and willing to praising others.The most recent experience communicating with a person from other culture was talking with an exchange student called Daniel. He is a British boy. Brown hair and eyes, light skin and slim figure. He happened to sit beside me so I seized the chance to chat with him, attempting to learn more about their culture. He talked about his travels in China, his favorite Chinese food, what kinds of TV series he’d like to watch and so on. And he told me that they were open, so they could talk about everything with us. I told him about Chinese history and Chinese tourist attractions. When I asked about his hair colour, he said he was from a cold area and he loved the natural colour. I asked for his phone number but pitifully, he didn’t have a Chinese number. He may have left now. And I like the talktive and open boy. With these experiences communicating with foreiners, I find these people from Europe countries or the US are kind and sonsy. They like to wear a s mile on their faces and always say hello to you actively as soon as seeing you. I enjoy staying with them and I wish to have more chances to communicate with them.。

一个跨文化的故事英文作文

一个跨文化的故事英文作文

一个跨文化的故事英文作文英文:As a person who has experienced living in two different cultures, I have encountered numerous interesting and sometimes challenging situations. One particular memorythat stands out to me is when I first moved to China to pursue my studies. I remember feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness as I stepped off the plane and into a completely new environment. Everything seemed so different – the language, the food, the customs, and even the way people interacted with each other.I vividly recall my first experience trying to order food at a local restaurant. I was still struggling to grasp the basics of Mandarin, and when the waitress came to take my order, I fumbled over my words and ended up pointing randomly at the menu. This resulted in me receiving a dish that I had never tried before and had no idea how to eat. I felt embarrassed and frustrated, but looking back, I canlaugh at the situation and appreciate the learning experience it provided.Living in China also exposed me to various cultural practices and traditions that were unfamiliar to me. For example, I was invited to a traditional Chinese wedding,and I was amazed by the elaborate ceremonies and ritualsthat were part of the celebration. I also had theopportunity to participate in the Chinese New Year festivities, where I learned about the significance of red envelopes and the traditional lion dance. These experiences not only broadened my understanding of Chinese culture but also allowed me to form meaningful connections with thelocal community.中文:作为一个在两种不同文化中生活过的人,我遇到了许多有趣的,有时是具有挑战性的情况。

……………………………………………………………………………My Cross-culture Communication ExperienceI can’t agree this view more: The need for intercultural communication is as old as humankind. And it is effortless to find that cross-culture communication pervades our daily life here and there, now and then. I truly believe that everyone has his or her unique and unforgettable intercultural communication experience and so do I.Before starting telling my cross-culture communication experience, something about my family background has to be introduced. Having embraced the life of a good boy, I was the obedient child of my relatively conservative family, thoroughly enjoying my freedom and a steady diet of veracity. From the beginning of my childhood memory, my parents made a perfect impression on me. Their relationship is so harmonious that any uncourteous and impolite words are not allowed, and also, they are hardly anger with each other. So they often educated us kids to take them as the example. However, the generation gap between us become extraordinarily apparent and a little chat or talking happened in our daily life. I don’t think they are wrong or their education manner is bad. Normally, every coin has two sides.As the mentioned that cross-culture communication plays an overwhelming role in our daily life. Especially, after I arrive at a new and strange city to begin my college life, I realized that what the really so-called culture diversity is. For example:It was a weekend and I received a call phoned by one of my classmates when I back to the dormitory. She said that something needs my help and hopping I can give her a hand to carry some stuff. As I was wondering what it is, the next door “Lao Wang” (one of my friends and we call him as thi s) told me that it must be the sanitary towel. “How dose it happened?” I was so embraced and confusing, since I have ever been hold the view that sanitary towel is of the privacy for a girl and it is impossible for her to mention it in the face of a boy let alone helping her to carry it. Whereby the courage I gave her my answer, the “no problem”. While I was on the road to meet her, some “why”, “how” still flash into my mind and most openmouthed, several boys appeared in front of mine. They were also invited by the girl and they were discussing how to do it. From their mouth I realized that all the sanitary towels come from a Japanese company and in order to open the Chinese marketing channel, a sales representative is needed and aim to help them to give out all the sanitary towels to the customers freely so that the customers will someday adhere to the product and buy it, so this is the task of the girl. It must be a good news for most of the Chinese for that we often eager to gain petty advantages without any expense. And at this moment the so-called “boycott Japanese goods” was thrown behind us. Facing so many free stuffs some guys can’t help asking: can I pick up one? Someone even joked: anyhow you are going to give out them and we can help you more directly. Generously, the advice was taken by the girl but some questions were asked: who can use it as you are boys? How do you deal with them? And one answered that he would like to give it to his girl friend. The guy said he can give it to his mother. What the worth mentioning is that I was totally astonished by what the latter replied. Because I deem that it must be embarrassing for me to do like that. I really can’t figure out how it was possible. With the thoroughly confusing, I hope someone can make me out of the wonder. And one of the boys gave me the explanation: “Actually, the extraordinary close relationship was foundedwhen I was born. And she is my good friend rather than my mom and some the innocuous talking often happened in our daily communication.” And he took a joke as the example: “when I was born a scar is left on my head. Once upon a time I asked my mom like this, why and how did it left? I guess it must be the reason that you guys have sex when you are pregnant, right?” after a burst of laught er, I expressly understand what the happened. Here again a funny cross-culture communication experience. It was a cold night, when I was having the buffet dinner in a cafeteria, a French girl come to my side and began her dinner. While the eating I realized something is wrong and the girl watch me now and then. To break the awkward atmosphere I smiled to her and ask slightly: “can you speak Chinese?” she answered me: yes. And she pointed my dish and continued: I will never eat pork for I am a Muslim. I finally knew the reason why she fell uncomfortable and gave the glance on me. Since she added: whenever I meet the one who is eating the pork I will feel strange and of the malaise. Suddenly I realized something impolite happened and gave a sorry for this. Relaxedly, she catered me and replied: it ok, it is none of your business, but my personal faith. Happily and funnily, we talked some things about the personal faith and I found that she is very curious and interrogative for that most Chinese have no personal faith. And she believed that every one should have his or her faith about the life the universe. But in fact, what I want to say is that we also have our own belief, our faith.We have to admit and meet the existence of the cross-culture communication. With or without your desire or consent, you are now thrust into contact with countless people who often appear alien, exotic, and perhaps even wondrous. Therefore, it is vital for us to learn some the relevant knowledge concerning the cross-culture communication if you are to be successful in both your social and professional lives.。
