1. Cross-Cultural Awareness
• What is cross-cultural awareness? • Cross-cultural awareness is the ability to
understand cultures—your own and others’—by means of objective, non-judgmental comparisons. It is an appreciation for, an understanding of, cultural pluralism—the ability to get rid of our ethnocentric tendencies and to accept another culture on its own terms. Many cross-cultural interactions go sour due to a lack of such an awareness.

Whatever the reason behind the rule, you do not insist on offering alcohol. And while I certainly did not figure Heping for Mormon, a Muslim or a reformed alcoholic, so unconscious and so strong are our communicative competence rules that we equally politely never made a second offer of beer to Heping, who probably thought North Americans are most uncouth.
Xiao Li (an interpreter): You must be very tired. You’re old… Catherine (an elderly American lady): Oh, I’m NOT old, and I’m NOT tired.
The Chinese way of showing concern is usually expressed by statement.
American: That’s how we make people feel
comfortable. People feel friendlier toward each other when they use first names. Englishman: it’s different here. For example, when you met my boss you should have used his last name. Also there’s something else that you do that English people don’t often do. American: What’s that? Englishman: You touch people on the shoulder quite a bit, especially when you compliment them.
