I.Explain the following terms.(20 points)

1.Cross-cultural communication:

Answer: Cross-cultural communication refers to communication between the native speakers and non-native speakers of communication, also refers to the communication among any people in different language and the background. Cross-cultural communication is a field of study that looks at how people from differing cultural backgrounds communicate, in similar and different ways among themselves, and how they endeavor to communicate across cultures.

2.Enculturation:

Answer: Enculturation is the process by which a person learns the requirements of the culture by which he or she is surrounded, and acquires values and behaviors that are appropriate or necessary in that culture. As part of this process, the influences which limit, direct, or shape the individual (whether deliberately or not) include parents, other adults, and peers. If successful, enculturation results in competence in the language, values and rituals of the culture. The process of enculturation is related to socialization. In some academic fields, socialization refers to the deliberate shaping of the individual, in others; the word may be used to cover both deliberate and informal enculturation.

3.Perception:

Answer:Perception is the means by which we make sense of our physical and social world. Our perceptions give meaning to all those external forces. Perception is the process of attaining awareness or understanding of the environment by organizing and interpreting sensory information. All perception involves signals in the nervous system, which in turn result from physical stimulation of the sense organs. For example, vision involves light striking the retinas of the eyes, smell is mediated by odor molecules and hearing involves pressure waves. Perception is not the passive receipt of these signals, but can be shaped by learning, memory and expectation. In contemporary psychology, perception is defined as the brain?s interpretation of sensory information so as to give it meaning. Cognitive sciences make the understanding of perception more detailed: Perception is the process of acquiring, interpreting, selecting, and organizing sensory information.

4.Behavioral residue:

Answer: Behavioral residue refers to those things that remain as a record of our action. It implies the way we perceive people around us by the behaviors that we observe; just like the saying “The deed proves the man”. Many behaviors leave some kind of discernible residue in their wake. Given that large quantities of behavior are performed in personal environments, it makes sense that these places might accumulate a fair

amount of residue.

II. Answer the following questions briefly. (40 points)

1.How can you understand “intercultural communication is a dynamic rather than static process”?

Answer:Intercultural communication is a dynamic course during which various contextual aspects interact. To make the communication run smoothly, mutterer and interpreter should adapt their linguistic choice to the communicative context consisting of language users, psychological, linguistic, social and physical worlds. Only when the language choice adapts to linguistic and social contexts can successful communication be achieved. And, to avoid communication failures, one should know the saying- "when in Rome, do as the Romans do."Intercultural communication, in its final analysis, is a semiotic activity, dealing with sign exchanges through sign transmission in a much more complicated dynamic manner than interpersonal communication in an Intraocular. Many semiotic theories given by classic demolitions or contemporary semiotic scholars can explain intercultural communication phenomena better than those borrowed from other disciplines, at least more theoretically acceptable.

2.In what ways are high-context cultures different from low-context culture?

Answer: Context is the most important cultural dimension and also

immensely difficult to define. The idea of context in culture was an idea put forth by an anthropologist by the name of Edward T Hall. Hall breaks up culture into two main groups: High and Low context cultures. He refers to context as the stimuli, environment or ambiance surrounding the environment. Depending on how a culture relies on the three points to communicate their meaning, will place them in either High or Low context cultures. For example, Hall goes on to explain that low-context cultures assume that the individuals know very little about what they are being told, and therefore must be given a lot of background information. High-Context cultures assume the individual is knowledgeable about the subject and has to be given very little background information.

3.What are collectivism and individualism? What features do they have respectively?

Answer:Collectivism is defined as the theory and practice that makes some sort of group rather than the individual the fundamental unit of political, social, and economic concern. In theory, collectivists insist that the claims of groups, associations, or the state must normally supersede the claims of individuals.

Individualism is the moral stance, political philosophy, ideology, or social outlook that stresses "the moral worth of the individual". Individualists promote the exercise of one's goals and desires and so value independence and self-reliance while opposing most external

interference upon one's own interests, whether by society, family or any other group or institution.Individualism makes the individual its focus and so starts "with the fundamental premise that the human individual is of primary importance in the struggle for liberation.

Features of Individualism:

(1)Emphasizes independence and individual achievement

(2)Promotes self-expression, individual thinking and personal choice

(3)Associated with private property and individual ownership

(4)Stresses competition as a means of achieving collective goals Features of Collectivism:

(1)Emphasizes interdependence and group success

(2)Promotes adherence to group norms, respect for authority and creating consensus

(3)Associated with shared property and group ownership

(4)Stresses cooperation as a means of maximizing individual achievement

4.What do you think are the important factors for intercultural communication?

Answer:(1) Stereotype

Stereotyping due to generalizing may be inevitable among those who lack frequent contact with another culture. But if you rely on the stereotypes, you will likely put yourself into an awkward and embarrassing situation

and offend others.

(2)Ethnocentrism

A consequence of this limited experience within one particular society, most people feel that their particular way of life is superior, right, and natural and that all other cultures are inferior and often wrong and unnatural. This feeling is called ethnocentrism. People everywhere develop customs and values, not to make their life more difficult or complicated, but to make life simpler and easier in their own society. We should attempt to look at other societies "within the framework of that society", instead of looking at it from the perspective of our own society.

(3)Pragmatic transfer

Transfer is borrowed from educational psychology which is used to describe the human tendency to generalize what has been learnt in one situation to other situations.

Positive transfer can help and enhance our foreign language learning while negative transfer (interference) may hinder the learning and cause breakdowns in communication.

III. Please show your understanding of the following statement.

(40 points)

Differences exist between Chinese culture and western cultures in terms of the cultural patterns including human nature, relationship of mankind to nature, sense of time, activity and social relationship.

Answer:

(a)Human nature orientation

Chinese culture: Innately good.

The orientation of being goodness is found typically in the Buddhist tradition. Buddhism maintains that we are born pure and are closest to what is called “loving kindness” when we enter this world. Chinese culture believes that people are innately good.

Western culture: Innately evil

Western culture believes that people are intrinsically evil and therefore cannot be trusted seek to control the actions of their members with institutions ranging from the religious to the political. The orientation in western is based on the concept of original sin. By following some rules people can change, improve, and “be saved”.

(b) Relationship of humankind to nature

Chinese culture:Oneness

On viewing the relationship between humankind and nature, the Chinese tend to fuse the human and 'heaven' as one part.

Western culture: dividedness

Western culture is based on science, which attempts to resolve people and nature's relationship. The westerners believe that the relationship of humankind to nature is dividedness.

(c) Sense of time

Chinese culture: past-orientated

Past-orientated cultures believe strongly in the significance of prior events. History, established religions, and tradition are extremely important to these cultures, so there is a strong belief that the past should be the guide for making decisions and determining truth. One typical past orientation is in China.

Western culture: future-orientation

Future-orientation cultures emphasize the future and expect it to be grander and nicer than the present. What is coming next holds the greatest attraction for them. The United States is considered to be such kind. Most Americans are believed to be always planning for the future instead of experiencing the moment. In fact, American?s vi ew of the future makes them optimistic, which is reflected in the proverb: “If at first you don?t succeed, try, try, and try again.”

(d) Activity

Chinese culture: Being

Being orientation refers to spontaneous activity. Such cultures hold the view that the current activity is the one that matters most and believe that the act of …being? is one of the main goals and joys of life.

Western culture: Doing

Doing orientation describes activity in which accomplishments are measurable by standards external to the acting agent, that is, this

orientation thrives on action. E.g. “No sooner said than done—so acts your man of worth”, “Idle hands are the devil?s workshop.”

(e) Social relationship

Chinese culture: Collectivism and Group-oriented

Collectivism is characterized by a rigid social framework that distinguishes between in-groups and out-groups. People count on their in-group (relatives, clans, organizations) to look after them, and in exchange for that they believe they owe absolute loyalty to the group. A culture based on masses. People placed country and family above your own self. Chinese uses ethics and tolerance to resolve people and people's relationship,

Western culture: Individualism and Ego-centrism

Western culture is based on individualism rather than on mass (collectivism). For instance, in the US, you always talk about individual rights, instead of placing the whole society above your own self. This is clearly different in China where a country, society or families are placed above your own self.

Unit 1 Page 22 The growth of intercultural communication as a field of study is based on a view of hi story that clearly demonstrates people and cultures have been troubled by a persistent i nability to understand and get along with groups and societies removed by space, ideol ogy, appearance, and behavior from their own. What is intriguing about many of huma n civilization's failure is that they appear to be personal as well as global. The story of h umankind is punctuated with instances of face-to-face conflicts as well as international misunderstanding--major and minor quarrels that range from simple name-calling to i solationism or even armed conflict. It is obvious that increased contact with other cultures and subcultures makes it impe rative for us to make a concerted effort to get along with and to try to understand peop le whose beliefs and backgrounds may be vastly different from our own. The ability, thr ough increased awareness and understanding, to peacefully coexist with people who do not necessarily share our lifestyles or values could benefit us not only in our own neigh borhoods but could be the decisive factor in maintaining world peace. 纵观历史,我们可以清楚地看到,人们由于彼此所处地域、意识形态、容貌服饰 和行为举止上存在的差异,而长久无法互相理解、无法和睦相处。在这种情况下,跨文化交际作为一个特定的研究领域得以形成和发展。值得注意的是,人类文明在 发展过程中所遭受的许多挫折,既是个人的,又是全球性的;人类历史进程总是充 满了个人间的直接冲突和民族间的误解——从骂骂咧咧到孤立主义直至到武装冲突,大大小小争端不绝。 很显然,文化间以及亚文化间的交往比以前多了,这迫切要求我们共同努力,去 理解有着不同信仰和文化背景的人们,并与之和睦相处。通过加深认识和理解,我 们能够与生活方式、价值观念不同的人们和平共处;这不但有益于我们周遭环境的 安定,也是维护世界和平的决定性因素。 Unit 2 Page 60 Culture is sometimes referred to as our mental programming,our “software of the mind. ” But we can take that computer analogy further and say that culture is the operating environment that enables software programs to run. Culture is like DOS or Unix or Windows:it is what enables us to process information in various specific application. The metaphor of windows seems to be very appealing to describe culture: culture is a mental set of windows through which all of life is viewed. It various from individual to individual within a society, but it shares important characteristics with menbers of a society. Culture is like the water fish swim in┄a reality that is taken for granted and rarely examined. it is in the air we breath and is as necessary to our understanding of who we are as air is to our physical life. Culture is the property of a community of people, not simply a characteristic of individuals. Societies are programmed by culture, and that programming comes from similar life experiences and similar interpretations of what those experiences mean. If culture is mental programming, it is also a mental map of reality. It tells us from early childhood what matters, what to prefer, what to avoid, and what to do. Culture

1.Iceberg:{Edward. 7. Hall.--标志着“跨文化交流”学科的开始} Culture can be viewed as an iceberg. Nine-tenths of an iceberg is out of sight (below the water line). Likewise, nine-tenths of culture is outside of conscious awareness. The part of the cultural iceberg that above the water is easy to be noticed. The out-of-awareness part is sometimes called “deep culture”. This part of the cultural iceberg is hidden below the water and is thus below the level of consciousness. People learn this part of culture through imitating models. / Above the water: what to eat, how to dress, how to keep healthy;Below the water: belief, values, worldview and lifeview, moral emotion, attitude personalty 2.Stereotype:定型主义 a stereotype is a fixed notion about persons in a certain category, with no distinctions made among individuals. In other words, it is an overgeneralized and oversimplified belief we use to categorize a group of people. 3.Ethnocentrism: 民族中心主义Ethnocentrism is the technical name for the view of things in which one’s own group is the center of everything, and all others are scaled and rated with reference to it. It refers to our tendency to identify with our in-group and to evaluate out-groups and their members according to its standard. 4.Culture:Culture can be defined as the coherent, learned, shared view of group of people about life’s concerns that ranks what is important, furnishes attitudes about what things are appropriate, and dictates behavior. 5.Cultural values: Values inform a member of a culture about what is good and bad, right and wrong, true and false, positive and negative, and the like. Cultural values defines what is worth dying for, what is worth protecting, what frightens people, what are proper subjects for study and for ridicule, and what types of events lead individuals to group solidarity. 6.Worldview: A worldview is a culture’s orientation toward such things as God, nature, life, death, the universe, and other philosophical issues that are concerned with the meaning of life and with “being”. 7.Social Organizations: The manner in which a culture organizes itself is directly related to the institution within that culture. The families who raise you and the goverments with which you associate and hold allegiance to all help determine hoe you perceive the world and how you behave within that world. 8.Globalization: refers to the establishment of a world economy, in which national borders are becoming less and less important as transnational corporations, existing everywhere and nowhere, do business in a global market. https://www.sodocs.net/doc/166243911.html,munication: Communication is any behavior that is perceived by others. So it can be verbal and nonverbal, informative or persuasive, frightening or amusing, clear or unclear, purposeful or accidental, communication is our link to the rest of the humanity.

如何培养英语跨文化交际能力

如何培养英语跨文化交际能力 中宁五中张永宏 摘要:本文通过分析我国英语教学现状,探索英语教学中培养跨文化交际能力的必要性,具体分析“跨文化交际能力”的三大组成,思考培养英语跨文化交际能力的具体方法。 关键词:跨文化交际语义文化语用文化 多年来,我国的英语教学主要采用传统的教学方法,即传统的听说法“with its end less and mind-numbing repetitive drills”和古老的以教师为中心的语法—翻译法。教师往往只注重学生语言形式的正确与否或使用是否流畅,而较少注重结合语言使用的场合来培养学生综合运用的能力。学生在这种教学模式下,经过十几年的英语学习,即使是有些成绩很好的学生也不能用所学的英语同外国人进行有效地交流。为了改变这种现状,人们必然对英语教学提出新的要求。而跨文化交际能力的培养却能在一定程度上弥补传统教学的这种缺陷。 首先,何为跨文化交际呢?“跨文化交际”的英语名称是“intercultural communication”或“cross-cultural communication”,它既指本族语者与非本族语者之间的交际,也指任何在语言和社会文化背景方面有差异的人们之间的交际。由于不同的民族所处的生态、物质社会及宗教等环境的不同,因而各自的语言环境产生了不同的社会文化、风土人情和语言习惯等诸语境因素,造成人们不同的说话方式或习惯话语。这就可能使交际双方对对方的话语做出不准确地推论,从而产生冲突、误会或交际的故障。 跨文化交际能力就是针对文化冲突提出来的,它是一种在理解、掌握外国文化知识与交际技能的基础上,灵活处理跨文化交际中出现的实际问题的能力。 一、英语教学中培养跨文化交际能力的必要性。 1、近年来, 随着改革开放步伐的加快, 对外交往日益频繁, 国与国之间的交流也越来越 广泛, 特别是社会信息化提高, 国际互联网的开通使更多的人足不出户便涉及到跨 文化交际。中国成功地加入WTO后,国际市场对能用英语熟练有效地交际的复合型人才的大量需求给外语教学提出了新的挑战,所以培养跨文化交际能力有其现实意义。 2、培养跨文化交际能力有助于我们要打破以往“就语言教语言”的模式,把交际因素引 进到英语教学中来,在英语教学过程中揭示那些隐伏在语言背后的,易引起误会和冲突的文化因素。掌握语言不只是掌握语法、音位和语义规则,还必须考虑到外国社会文化背景造成的语言之外的规则。 3、培养跨文化交际能力有利于处理好语言和文化的关系。语言和文化是不可分割的,二 者相互依存、相互影响。语言是文化的载体,又是文化的重要组成部分,也是文化的

《跨文化交际》_名词解释

1.Globalization is considered as a process of increasing involvment in international business operations. 经济学视角中的全球化表现为不断增加的国际商务往来过程。 2.Macroculture:The term macroculture implies losing ethnic differences and forming one large society. 宏观文化意味着种族差异的消失和一个大社会的形成。 3.Melting pot means a sociocultural assimilation of people of different backgrounds and nationlities. 熔炉:不同背景和国籍的人们之间的社会文化的同化。 4.Microcultures:cultures within cultures 微观文化:文化中的文化 5.Intercultural communication refers to communication between people whose culture perceptions and symbol systems are distinct enough to alter the communication event. 跨文化交际:指拥有不同文化认知和符号体系的人文之间进行的交际。 Chapter 1 6.Culture is a learned set of shared interpretations about beliefs,values,and norms,which affect the behavior of a relatively large group of people. 文化是习得的一套关于信仰,价值观,规范的公认的解释,这些信仰,价值观,规范对相当大人类群体的行为产生影响。 7.Culture identity refers to one’s sense of belonging to a particular culture or ethnic group. 文化身份:指有意识地把自己归为某一特定文化或种族群体。 8.Subculture are formed by groups of people possessing characteristic traits that set apart and distinguish them from others within a larger society or dominant culture. 亚文化:具有能在更大的一个社会范围内或主流文化中使自己有别于他人的特点的人类群体所形成的文化。 9.Subgroup are groups with the dominant culture does not agree and with which it has communication problems. 亚群体:与主流文化不一致,并与主流文化有交际障碍的交际群体。 10.Rules may refers to socially agreed-on behavior or to individual guidelines for behavior. 规则:社会认同的行为或行为的个体原则。 11.Norms are culturally ingrained principles of correct and incorrect behaviors which, if broken carry a form of overt or covert penalty. 规范指的是正确和不正确行为根深蒂固的文化原则,这种不正确的行为一旦发生,就意味着一种显性或隐性的处罚。 Chapter 2 12.Enculturation is the socialization process you go through to adapt to your society. 社会文化适应:人们学习适应自己所在社会的文化的社会化过程。 13.Acculturation refers to an individual’s learning and adopting the norms and

跨文化交际研究现状

跨文化交际研究现状 中国跨文化外语教学的研究有近 60年的历史,近些年来有了更快的发展。如今,外语教学中有关跨文化交际能力的培养已经引起了许多教育家,语言学家的极大关注。外语教学应当结合相关文化来进行,这一点似乎已经成为当今外语教学界的共识。近年来,文化成了热门话题,文章和论著都有不少。无论是讨论教学还是教材,教学大纲还是课程设计,几乎无一不强调外语教学中的文化导入,强调在习得语言的同时习得相关的文化。而我们的英语教学侧重于语言教学,对文化方面涉及不多致使学生一开口常常是“汉语思维,英语形式”。在跨文化交际中,交际双方若不能进入同一文化背景之中,就容易产生不解或误解,导致交际失败。正如托马斯(Thomas)指出:“语法错误从表层上能看出,受话者很容易发现这种错误,这种错误一旦发现,受话者便会认为说话者缺乏足够的语言知识,因此可以谅解。语用失误却不会被像语法错误一样看待。如果一个能说出一口流利英语的人出现语用失误,他可能会被认为缺乏礼貌或不友好,他在交际中的失误便不会被归咎于语言能力的缺乏,而会被归咎于他的粗鲁或敌意。” 跨文化交际能力的培养需要在外语教学中进行文化教学。现在外语教学中对跨文化交际能力的培养以及文化教学很多只停留在文化知识层面,这就要求教师在教学中必须加大文化信息量的导入,引导学生主动发觉文化差异方面的信息。只有这样,教师才能从根本上提高英语教学的质量,学生也才能有掌握实际运用语言的能力。如今跨文化交际能力的培养是勿庸置疑的,关键问题是在于如何培养。高一虹教授指出,新的跨文化交际能力的培养模式应该有以下特点:1.它以文化意识的培养为中心,有对文化多元性的意识和对差异的宽容态度,对异文化共情能力,以及对自身文化价值观念及行为方式的觉察和反省。2 .注重态度和情感层面,也包括认知层面,特别是批判性的反思能力。3. 不限于目的语文化,而是通用于与任何

跨文化交际

【知识点归纳】 1.重点概念: (1)文化:culture,涉及内容十分广泛,不同研究者有不同定义。 广义文化:指人类社会实践过程中所获得的物质、精神的生产能力和创造的物质、精神财富的总和。 狭义文化:精神生产能力和精神产品,包括一切社会意识形式;自然科学、技术科学、社会意识形式。英国人类学家泰勒1871年在《原始文化》中提到的定义影响很大。 总的来说,文化是人类社会创造的财富,包括食物、器具,也包括信念、价值观、习俗、知识。可分为物质文化、制度文化和观念文化。总的来说,文化是人类社会创造的财富,包括食物、器具,也包括信念、价值观、习俗、知识。可分为物质文化、制度文化和观念文化。 其特性是:人类独有;来自后天习得;大部分存在于人的潜意识;是行动的指南;动态,与一定历史时期相联系。 (2)交际:就是人与人之间的往来交际活动,文化在交际中得到发展与传播。跨文化交际中的交际主要指人际间通过语言等交际工具进行的直接或间接的信息交流和沟通活动。 (3)编码与解码 交际是一个编码和解码的过程;编码是把思想、感情、意识等编成语码的过程,解码是对外界接受的符号或信息赋予意义或进行解释的过程。 (4)言语交际与非言语交际言语交际是指使用语言作为交际媒介; 非言语交际是指使用除语言以外的交际工具作为交际媒介,例如:文字、盲文、手语、手势、旗语、号语等。 (5)跨文化交际 广义:具有不同文化背景的人们之间进行的交际往来或信息传播与沟通活动。 狭义:在特定的交际情景中,具有不同的文化背景的交际者使用同一种语言进行的口语交际。 影响跨文化交际的主要因素:民族的历史与传统、宗教思想、价值观念、社会组织形式、风俗习惯、政治制度、社会发展阶段;阶层、职业、年龄、性别等方面。(6)文化模式分为特殊的文化模式和普遍的文化模式两类。 特殊的文化模式是指各民族或国家具有的独特的文化体系。 普遍的文化模式是指一切文化都是由各个不同的部分组成的,这种文化构造适用于任何一个民族的文化。美国人类学家C.威斯勒尔认为,普遍的文化模式包括:①语言;②物质特质;③美术;④神话与科学知识;⑤宗教习惯;⑥家庭与社会体制;⑦财产;⑧政府;⑨战争。 (7)文化深层结构 亦称为“文化潜意识”,相对于文化表层结构而言。指一个民族族体在历史的积淀中形成的固定心态,在一种文化中既不产生律动也不产生突变的心理层次。有些学者认为,西方文化的深层结构是“不断地追求变动,渴望不断地超越”;而中国文化,乃至东方文化则具有静态的目的性,寻求天下太平,维持整个结构的平稳和不变 (8)文化定势 “定势”的概念,最先是由美国政治评论家Lippmann 在1922 年出版的《公

汉硕案例分析答题技巧 最近很多人问关于汉语国际教育考试中的案例分析题该怎样答,我根据自己的粗浅经验,现总结如下: 1.答题思路:按照发现问题-- 分析问题-- 解决问题的思路。具体如下:(1)发现问题:也就是提出问题。在所给的案例中,某个出国教汉语的志愿者教师或来中国教外语的外教等,遇到了什么样的困难。遇到的困难可能是课堂教学时的,比如学生上课都不积极回答问题,不愿意参与老师精心设计的课堂活动,或者问老师一些可能涉及到“隐私”的问题;也可以是这位老师在生活上遇到的问题,比如无法与当地人沟通或交流(语言障碍,文化障碍),无法适应当地人的生活,或不理解当地人做某事时为什么会采取那样的方式,等等。注意:遇到的问题可能是多方面的,要从多角度分析,一般情况下,也不只是一个问题,所以,要按条来答。 (2)分析问题:要求你具体分析一下这位老师或某人遇到这种困难是什么原因引起的,主要是文化方面的原因,可能还涉及到一些他所采用的文化策略等。比如,他由于对对方国家文化不了解,对方国家可能很注重“隐私”,而在我们国家这不被看做是“隐私”。同时要求你分析出我们的母语文化具有什么样的特点,最主要的是和对方国家有什么不一样,哪里不一样,因此造成了他在文化方面的不适应,以至于教学和生活中都出现了问题或遇到了困难。关于他所使用的文化策略,主要就是他自身有没有做到尊重当地的文化,有没有试着去融入这种文化,接受这种文化,还是一味的采取排斥策略,认为自己的一切都好,别人的一切都不好。这就是分析问题了。 (3)解决问题:这是最关键的部分了。怎么解决他遇到的问题或困难?你自己提出个对策就行了,当然,要根据一些你所知道的文化常识和应对策略。比如首先尊重当地文化,多和当地人交流,努力让自己适应当地人的文化和生活方式,做到求同存异,等等。这里需要注意的就是,有些文化的知识是很灵活的,比如中国人的谦虚、中庸的思想等等,都是我们日常生活就知道的,就是稍微总结一下,理顺一下,就能答题了。关于这个,如果时间还来得及,就看一下程裕祯的《中国文化要略》,看一下中国文化的特点等,很多东西是很细致的,自己要稍加总结。如果时间不是很充分了,就把刘珣的《对外汉语教育学引论》上的关于“跨文化交际”的那个章节仔细看一下,我觉得应对这道题应该够用了。 2.答题方法:其实思路清晰了就很好弄了,老师会看你的逻辑分析能力。强烈建议大家一定要分条论述,千万别想到哪说到哪,写出一大片,阅卷老师还得自己去给你找点,这样,老师会很疲劳的,老师最不喜欢的就是这种思维混乱的。所以说,大家答题时我觉得可以按两种方法来写: 第一种:按发现问题---分析问题---解决问题来写,一共三条,然后在每条的下边分几个小点,因为发现的问题肯定不止一个,相应的分析问题和解决问题也会不止一条。 第二种:按一共出现了几个问题分条,第一条,问题1:发现问题--分析问题--解决问题;问题2:发现问题--分析问题--解决问题;问题3--以此类推。 总结一下,以上两种方法都各有利弊,因为有时不同的问题是由同一个原因产生的,或者需要同一种解决策略。所以,大家可以根据自己的喜好来选择其中一种。按以上的问题全部分析完以后,最好再来个综述,大致总结一下,字数不用太多,就是有个小结尾。 最后,要跟大家说的是,字数和字迹的问题。这个案例分析要求是1000字以上

1 Translation 纵观历史,我们可以清楚地看到,人们由于彼此所处地域、意识形态、容貌服饰和行为举止上存在的差异,而长久无法互相理解、无法和睦相处。在这种情况下,跨文化交际作为一个特定的研究领域得以形成和发展。值得注意的是,人类文明在发展过程中所遭受的许多挫折,既是个人的,又是全球性的;人类历史进程总是充满了个人间的直接冲突和民族间的误解——从骂骂咧咧到孤立主义直至到武装冲突,大大小小争端不绝。 很显然,文化间以及亚文化间的交往比以前多了,这迫切要求我们共同努力,去理解有着不同信仰和文化背景的人们,并与之和睦相处。通过加深认识和理解,我们能够与生活方式、价值观念不同的人们和平共处;这不但有益于我们周遭环境的安定,也是维护世界和平的决定性因素。 2 Translation 文化有时候被称为我们的心智程序,我们“头脑的软件”。但是,我们可以进一步引申这个用电脑所做的类比,把文化看作是支持运行的操作环境。文化就像电脑使用的DOS或者Unix或者“视窗”(Windows)等操作系统一样,使我们能在各种各样的实际应用中处理信息。用“视窗”这个比喻来描述文化似乎也很有吸引力。文化就是我们心灵的视窗,透过它我们审视生活的方方面面。一个社会中不同个体的视窗是不大一样的,但都有着一些重要的共同特征。 文化就好像是鱼畅游于其中的水一般,人们想当然地把文化看成是客观存在的事实,因而很少去研究它。文化存在于我们所呼吸的空气之中,文化对于我们了解我们自身之为何物是必不可少的,就正如生命离不开空气一样。文化是特定群体的共有财产,而不单是个体的特征。社会按照文化设定的程序运作,这种程序来自于相似的生活体验以及对这种生活体验之含义的相似阐释。 如果文化是一种心智程序,那么它也是现实的心灵地图。从我们很小的时候开始,文化就告诉我们应该看重什么、偏好什么、规避什么和做些什么,文化还告诉我们事物应该是什么样。文化为我们提供超越个体经验可能的理想典范,帮助我们决定应该优先考虑的人或事。文化为我们建立起行为准则,并视遵守这些准则的行为为正当、合法。 3 Translation 43
