Summary of Text A, Unit 1During a visit to China for studying arts education, the writer got in the difference between Chinese and American ideas of education through an interesting phenomenon. When the writer’s son Benjamin was trying to place the key into the narrow slot, the writer was happy to see his exploratory behavior, while the nearby Chinese staff would come to his rescue, so called “ba zhe shou jiao”. The key-slot anecdote caused the writer to discuss with Chinese educators. According to the writer, American ideas attach more attention to innovation and self-reliance, emphasize the ability of solving problems on his own, and encourage children to boldly try new and challenging things. To some extent, they don’t care the initial success, instead, they care the fostering of children’s creativity. For Chinese, adults want to mold and shape children’s performance to master as many basic skills with extreme facility as possible. So adults tend to infuse children with all kinds of skills in direct ways, and don’t allow them to explore new things. Nearly all solutions must obey established rules, and some adults usually teach by holding their hands. Nevertheless, the writer still approves of Chinese creativity, and wants to strike a better balance between the poles of creativity and basic skills.。

Summary of the text
This essay is a piece of argumentation. An argument is a reasoned, logical way of demonstrating that your position, belief, or conclusion is valid. One purpose of argument is to persuade reasonable people to agree with your position. Another is simply to defend your position, to establish its soundness even if others cannot be persuaded to agree. A third purpose of argumentation is to attack some position you believe to be misguided, untrue, or evil, without necessarily offering an alternative of your own. In a good essay of this type, enough evidence should be given to support your arguments. Addressing the claims of the opposition is also an important component in building a convincing argument.

Summary of Text A of Unit 1There are some stumbling blocks in intercultural communication.The first block is the assumption of similarity. that is : people naively assume that people around the world have similar ways to exchange information and express themselves. However, people from different culture are not all alike.The second one is language difference. A word may has numerous meanings in different context, the learners’ tenacity with “one word, one meaning” is worse than trying to understand the meaning of the new word.The third one is nonverbal misunderstanding. people from different cultures have different perception on life, and they usually fit or interpret other cultures through their own culture. It is even harder to understand the unspoken codes than observed signs and symbols.The fifth one is the presence of preconceptions and stereotypes .Preconception leads to misunderstandings and stereotypes are not easy to change even when the reality is against the imagination because it is deeply rooted in one’s culture.The sixth one is the high anxiety.It is common in intercultural communication that people are anxious about uncertainties. The case is the more anxious you are, the harder you’ll achieve successful communicat ion.Knowing the six stumbling blocks is helpful in avoiding them. We can gradually expose ourselves to cultural differences so that they become less threatening. (229words)Most stepfamilies do not blend, A stepfamily is less likely to become a "whole".it is normal that relationship is different within the same stepfamily.Stepfamily want to cut off the previous family history, and quickly form a new home. But it is impossible to maintain the family without love, and it will only let family members suffer greater harm.Both parents have denied the facts about stepfamily, which hindering the normal fusion of stepfamily. Accepting the stepfamily’s uninue challenges and opportunities can further change the predicament.Because stepfamily have high expectations, hoping that various values and interests can come together. Family members will always feel anxiety and fear.Teach children to respect others is very important, and let the children find a sense of belonging after returning another home.The above ones are generally not helpful. Stepfamilies choosing Crockpot cooking style understand that time and low heat make for an effective combination.In the integration process of stepfamily, being patient is necessary. Stepfamily need time to adapt to the new environment and lifestyle. Moreover, Family members need time to find a sense of belonging and an identity as a family unit.As a stepparent, do not force to care for children.Slow-cooking stepparents understand the cardinal rule of relationship development with stepchildren: Let the stepchild set the pace for the relationship.Mini-family activities help children get uninterrupted time with their biological parent and siblings, honoring their need for attention from the ones they love most.Only Respecting the feelings and interests of each family member can stepfamily have a better integration. As a stepparent need to backoff, honor one another’s past by spending time with kids doing what he enjoy.。
