curtain
,
a
teenager
pack
ed
up

his
overcoat
into the
suitcase
. He planned to leave home
at dusk
though there was
thunder
and
lightning

outdoors
. He
had got to do
this because he
was tired
of

his parents’ nagging about his English study and did not want to

go through
it any longer. He couldn’t
get along
well
with
English and
dislike
d
join
ing
in

English classes because he thought his teacher
ignore
d him
on purpose
. As a
result, his score in each exam never
add

up

to
over 60.





His
partner
was
concerned
about

him
very
much.
She
understood
exactly
what he was

highway
to studying English well.





The teenager was
grateful

Now, he has
recover

有 个
少年
躲在
积满灰尘的松散窗帘
后把
大衣装入手提箱
。尽管
外面
正
打雷闪电
，

他仍计划在
黄昏时分离家出走。他
不得不
这样做是因为
厌倦
了
父母对他英语学习 的唠叨，不想再
忍受
下去了。他的英语学习总是无法
取得
进展
，而且
不喜欢参加
英语课的学习，因为他以为老师
有意忽视
他。
结果，他每 次考试的分数
合计
从未超过
60
。





他的
搭档
很
关心
他，也
确切地
理解他< br>遭受
的折磨，但却
完全不同意
他
的想法。
为了
使他< br>冷静
下来好好
解决
问题，她和他
面对面
地交谈，并
交 换
了
一系列
的学习心得
技巧
。她
写下来
的
条款
帮助他找到了学好英语的
最佳
捷径
。

这个少年非常< br>很感激
，并从朋友的话里获得极大的
动力
。现在，他已
经从
沮 丧
中
恢复
过来，真正
爱上
了英语。



2. Different Countries Have Different Kinds of Englishes

不同的国家有不同的英语


Voyage
s of people from England
play an
important
part in
spreading the
English language.
At present
, English is
frequently
spoken as an
official
or
common language in many countries,
such as
America,
Singapore
,
Malaysia

and some
African
countries. All
base
d
on
British English, the English spoken
in
these
countries
can
be
well
understood
by
native

English
speakers.
But
actually
, these Englishes have been
gradually
changing in
accent
s,
spelling
s,
expression
s and the
usage
of
vocabulary
.

Because of
this fact, you can
make use of
the differences to tell which
country the foreigners of your
block
are from. For example, if a boss
fluently
commands

his driver, ―
Come up straight
to my
apartment
by
elevator
and
tak
e
some
gas
for my trucks and
cab
s‖, instead of
request
ing, ―Please come
to
my
flat

by
lift

and
take
some

petrol

for
my

lorries

and
taxis‖,
you
can
recognize
his American

identity
, while the
latter

suggest
s that he is British.

英国人的
航海
在英语的传播中
扮演了
重要
的角色
。
目前，英语在许
多国家被作为
官方
语言或通用语言
频繁地
使用，例如
美国、
新加波、马
来西亚
和一些
非洲的
国家。这些 国家的英语都
以
英式英语
为基础
，能很
好地为以英语为
本族
语
的
人所理解。但是
实际上
，这些英语在
口音、拼
写、表达
和
词汇
的
使用
方面都在
逐渐
变化。

因为
这一情况的存在，
你就可以
利用
这些英语之间的区别说出你 们
街
区
的外国人是哪个国家来的了。
例如，
如果有个老板
流 利地命令
他的司机：
“
Come
up
straight
to
my
apartment
by
elevator
and
take
some
gas
for
my
trucks
and
cabs
（
直接
搭
电梯< br>到我
公寓上来
拿卡车和
出租车
的
汽油
）”，
而不是
要求
说，“
Please come to my flat by lift and take some petrol for my
lorries and taxis< br>（请直接搭
电梯
到我
公寓
上来拿
卡车
和出租车的汽油
）
”
，
你就可以轻易地
辨认
出他的美国人
身份
，而
后者
却
暗示
着那是一位英国
人。
（请注意 ：听力录音里第二段两个“电梯”的单词跟原文不一致，原
文是对的，录音弄错了，

elevator
才是美式说法而
lift
是英式说法。
)

3.A Hard Trip

一次辛苦的旅行


My
sister
was
fond
of

traveling.
Ever
since
graduating
,
she
had
been
determined
to
organize
a trip to an old
temple
. Since
transport
ing
fare
was
expensive,
she
decided
to
use
a
bicycle
to
cycle

there
not
caring
about

the
disadvantage
s. Her
stubborn attitude
was always her
shortcoming
. Once she
made up
her
mind
to do something, no one could
persuade
her to
change
her
mind
.
Finally,
we
gave in as usual
though we
prefer
red to take a train. After
we prepared everything, including the
schedule, reliable
weather
forecast
and
the
insurance
, we began our trip.


Our
journey
was along a river
flow
ing from a high
altitude
. Our
pace
was
slow because the river frequently had many sharp
bend
s through deep
valley
s,
where the water seemed to
boil
. Just as I recorded in my
journal
, it was really
a hard journey. But we also enjoyed great
view
s. One night, I put my head on
my
pillow
--
a parcel of

wool
coats, and lay
beneath
the stars. When the
flame
in front of our

cave
went out
at midnight
, I found the sky so beautiful!



我的妹妹很
喜欢
旅 行。
自从毕业
以来，
她就
下定决心
要
组织
一次往一
座古
庙
的旅行。因为
交通费用
昂贵，她决定
骑自行车
去，毫不
担心
其中的
不利
情况。
顽固的态度
一直都是她的
缺点
，一旦她
下定决心
要做的事，就
没有人能
说服
她
改变主意
。
最后
，我们
像往常一样让步
，尽管我们
更喜欢
乘火车去。我们准备好了所有东西，包括
时间表
、
可靠的
天 气
预报
，还有
保险
，就开始了旅程。

我们的
旅程
沿着一条从高
海拔
处
流
下来的河流前行。但我们的
步伐很
慢，因为当流经深深的
峡谷
时，这条河流急
转弯
很多，急湍的 河水都似乎
沸腾
起来。正如我在
旅行日志
里记录的那样，这真是一次艰苦的旅 行。但
是我们也欣赏到了美丽的
景色
。一天晚上，我把头枕在
一包羊毛
衣服做的
枕头
上，躺
在
星空
下
，当
岩洞
前的
火焰
在
午夜
熄灭时，我发现夜空是如此
的美丽！



4.A Horrible Earthquake

可怕的地震

Dirty
water rose in
well
s and
canal
s before the
earthquake
. But no one
judge
d
that
an
earthquake
was
coming.
Suddenly,
everything
shook.
It
seemed

as
if

the
world
was
at
an
end
.
Millions
of

brick

houses
and

a
number
of
dam
s
were
destroy
ed.
Railway
track
s
became
useless
bar
s.
Pipe
s in
mine
s
burst
and let out
smelly

steam
. Huge
crack
s
trap
ped
cyclist
s
everywhere.

The next day, this
event
was the
headline
or main
title
of all newspapers.
With the
reporter
s giving an
outline
of the
disaster
, the whole
nation
was

shock
ed
by
the
damage

and
the
victim’s
extreme

suffering
.
People
were
moved
when
they
read
that
the
survivors

comforted
each
other
by
saying
―
Congratulations
!
You
survived!‖.
So
they
not
only
express
ed
their
sympathy
sincerely
,
but
also
organized
together
to
help
the
victims
right
away
. The
injure
d were
rescue
d and the dead were
buried
. The
frighten
ed
survivors were
dug out
from under the
ruin
s and were offered
shelter
, fresh
water
and

electricity
.
Thanks
to
people’s
help,
the
loss
was
minimized.


地震
前，
水井
和
运河
里的
污
水都涨涌起来。但是却没人
判断
出地震
即将来 临。
霎那间，
一切都在摇晃，
似乎
整个世界就要
结束
。数以百万
的
砖
房和
许多水坝
遭到
破坏
；铁路< br>轨道
都变成
无用的
铁
条
；
煤矿管道
纷纷爆裂
，发出有

臭味的蒸汽
；到处都有
骑车的人
被巨大 的
裂缝陷住
。
第二天，
所有报纸都纷纷以
大字标题
或主要< br>标题
报道了这一
事件
。
记
者
们描述了
灾难< br>的
大概情况
，全
国
都被地震的
破坏
和灾民们
极度的苦难
所
震惊
。当人们读到
幸存者
以“
恭喜
啊 ，你还活着。”来互相安慰时，都
被感动了。
人们不仅
衷心地表达
了他们的同 情，
而且还
立刻
组织起来帮助
灾民。
伤
员被
救助了，死者被
埋葬
了，
吓坏
的幸存者被从
废墟
中
挖出来
了，
栖身处
、净水和
电力
也很快得到提供。多亏了人们的帮 助，灾区的损
失被减到了最小。

作为
共和国
的< br>创始人
，
这位
总统
具备许多的优秀
品质
。
还 在
掌权
之前，
他就是一位
慷慨的律师
。他
愿意无私地
帮助那些
向
他
求助
的人。他免
费
为
失业的
，或没有受过
教育
的人提供
法律指导
和
意见
。后来，因为 相信所有
人类
都是生来
平等
，他全身心
投入
到废除
不平等的反
黑人法律工作中。他
建立
了黑人
青年团
并被
选< br>为领袖。然而，尽管他坚持没有
暴力
、没有
恐怖
的
和平原则< br>，
卑鄙的
敌人还是
炸毁
了他的家、
袭击
了他的
亲属
，他自己也
无法
逃脱被判
30
年徒刑的遭遇。
在狱中，
他毫不畏惧狱警的
残酷
，
始终保持
积极
的态度 ，
不向他们
乞
求
怜悯。
实际上
，他在任何一个
困境 时期
都
充满着希望
，从未
灰心

最后，人们以领袖的职位和一块金

毯子回报
了他的贡献。



6.A Brave Maid

勇敢的女仆

A
wooden vase
from the Ming
Dynasty
at the
entrance
of the
reception
hall
amaze
d
everyone.
The
artist
s
design
ed
it
in
a
rare
style

and
select
ed
valuable jewel
s to
decorate
it. People
thought highly of
its
fancy
colour of
honey
and the beautiful
painting
s on it.

The vase used to
belong to
a
former castle
. But when the country was
at
war
,
the
enemy
troop
s
explode
d
the
castle.
Debate
s
on
how
the
vase
survive
d went on and on. In order to
remove

people’s
doubt
, a team of no
less than
20 people carried out an
informal
investigation. The
evidences
they
found showed that a
maid took
the vase
apart
and asked a
sailor
to
sink
it in
a
local
well. She never gave away the secret even under the cruel
trial
of the
enemies who were
in search of
treasures.

It is
worth
giving this brave maid a fortune
in return
.

它。人们
高度赞赏
它那

这个花 瓶曾经
属于
一座
从前的城堡
，但在
战争
期间，敌人的
军队炸

了城堡，
于是关于这个花瓶是如何
幸存下来
的
争 论
就一直在持续着。
为
了
解开
人们的
疑问
，一个由 不
少于
20
人的调查队开展了一次
非正式的

查。他们找到 的
证据
表明，有个
女仆

把
花瓶
拆开

水手
把它

当地的
一个水井里。她从来没有泄露 这个秘密，即使是在

这位女仆真是
值得
给予一大笔钱作为对她的
回报
。





7.A Fair Competition

公平的比赛


Swift
er,
Higher
and
Stronger
stands
for

the
spirit
of
the
Olympics.
But
fairness is the
basis
of this
motto
. Only when you win fairly will you and your
homeland deserve
the great
glory
. But
nowadays
, unlike the
ancient
honest
slave competitor
s, some
hopeless athlete
s who can’t bear the
pain
of training
cheat
when
taking
part
in

games.
Medal
s
seem
to
have
magical
power
causing
them
to
cheat,
and
the
prize
money
has
replace
d
the
motto
as
their
only goal.


So, in the
gymnastics
event to be held in our city next month, one of the
host
’s
responsibilities

is
to
keep
competitions
fair.
They
advertise
d
on
poster
s
outside
the
stadium
to
promise
that
every
competitor
is
to
have
a
regular physical
examination in a
gymnasium one after another
. No one can
bargain
on this. The
volunteer
s
in charge
will be very strict. It is
foolish
to
cheat because they will not be
admit
ted to
compete
and will even be
fine
d
as
well
.



“
更
快
！更高！更强！”
代表
着奥运精神。但是公平却是这一
格言
的
基础
。只有当你公平地赢得比赛，你和你的
祖国
才会
承受
这样的< br>光荣
。但
如今
，不像
古代
那些诚实的
奴隶参赛者，有些
没有希望的运动员
无法承受
训练的
痛苦
，于是在
参加
比赛时作假。
奖牌
似乎有某种
魔
力使他们作假，
奖金也 已经
代替
了奥运格言成为了他们唯一的目标。

因此，
在我们市下个 月即将举行的一场
体操
赛事中，
主办方
的其中一
项
责任就是要确保比赛的公平。他们在
体育场
外的
海报
上
做广告
，承诺
说每个参赛者都将在
体育馆一个一个地
参加
常规的身体
检查 。对此没有
人可以
讨价还价
。
负责
此事的
志愿者
将 非常严格。作假是很
愚蠢的
，因
为他们将不被
允许
去
竞赛< br>，甚至
还
将被
罚款
。

电脑


The
goal
of
early
calculating
machines
was
to

simplify
difficult
sum
s.
But
with the help of
new
technology
,
electronic chip
s replaced
tube
s and a
revolution

of
artificial
intelligence

has
arise
n.

From

then

on
,
the
appearance

of
computers
totally
changed
our
lives.
They
can
not
only
download

information
from
the
wet

when
connected
by
the
network

or
mobile
phone
signal
s, but also
solve
different
type
s of
logical
problems. With
operator
s
as
their
coach
es,
they
can
even
control
rocket
s
to
explore
the
moon and instruct
android
s with the
human race
’s
character
s to
mop
floors
and
watch over
your
naughty niece
.
Anyhow
, computers are
so
helpful
that

they do bring
happiness
.


However,
computers
are
easily
attacked
by
virus
es.
This
reality

has
become a hard- to-
deal with
-problem.
As a result
, computers are dangerous
in
a
way
.
So,
personally
,
I
worry
about
their
universal
application
s
in
some
fields, such as
finance
.



早期

机器的
目的
是
简化

在
新
技术
的
帮助下
，
电子芯片
代替了
电子 管
，一场
人工智能革命
由此
掀起
。
从
那时
起
，电脑
的
出现完全
改变了我们的生活，它们不仅能在
网络
或
移动
电话
信号
的连
接下从

下载信息，而且可以
解决

教练
下，它们甚至还可以控制

不管怎么说
，电脑都是
如此的
有用，
以

快乐
。

然而，电脑很容易受到
病毒
的攻击，这一
现实
已经成为一个难以
处理

结果
，电 脑
在某种程度上
是很危险的。因此，
就个人而言

保护野生动植物


Wildlife Protection

Dinosaur
s

died
out

because
of
an
unexpected
incident
.
But
wildlife

today
disappears or is
in danger
just because humans do
harm
to it. For example,
tigers are
hunt
ed for
fur
to make
carpet
s
so that
they can only live in
secure
reserve
s; grassland is destroyed without
mercy
so that
dust
storms
come into
being
affect
ing
distant
cities.


Last year, scientists saw some monkeys
rub
bing themselves with a
certain

kind
of
insect
s
to

protect
themselves
from
fierce
mosquito
es
biting
.
According to
the result of the
inspection
, they found that the insect
contain
s a
powerful

drug,
so
local
farmers
were
employ
ed
to
catch
the
insects.
The
ending
was that the insects disappeared from the whole
zone
. When told that it
was a
loss
to humans, the farmers
burst into laughter
and
respond
ed, ―Our
real loss is our
decreasing

income
.‖


We should
appreciate
the natural balance and
pay
more
attention to
the
importance
of
wildlife
protection
.
Not
until
we
succeed
in

letting
wildlife
live
in peace
, can we smile
in relief
.





恐龙
因 一次
意外事件
而
灭绝
，但是今天的
野生动植物
却是因为人类 的
伤害
而消失或
处在危险中
。例如，老虎被
猎杀
以获取做< br>地毯
的
皮毛
，
以致
它们只能生活在
安全的保护区里；草地被毫不
怜悯
地破坏，以致
沙尘
暴
开
始影响遥远 的
城市。


去年，
科学家观察到猴子在身上
擦某
种
昆虫
来
保护
自己
不受凶猛的蚊
子的叮咬
。
根据检查
的结果，他们发现这种昆虫
含
有一种具有
强大
效力
的
药物，于是，
当地的农民都被
雇
来抓虫子。
结果
是，< br>这种昆虫从这整个
地区
都消失了。
当被告知说这是整个人类的
损失时，
农民们都
突然大笑
着
回应
道：“我们
减少的收入< br>才是我们真正的损失呢！”


我们应该
意识到
自然平衡的< br>重要
，
更加
注意
野生动植物的
保护。
直到
我 们
成功
让野生动植物
安详平静地
生活，我们自己才能
如释重负地笑开
颜。



First Band

我的第一支乐队


I was very
sensitiv
e to music. Just
dip
ping
into
the music books
briefly
, I
could sing or play well.
To be honest
, I always
dream
t
of
becoming a famous
folk
actor

.
I
was
so
confident

that
I
never
decreased
my
devotion
.

I
form
ed my first band called ―
Roll
ing Frog‖. At the beginning, we
relied
on

perform
ing
on
instrument
s
in
pub
s
or
to

passer
s
–
by

to
earn
extra
money
in cash
. Then we wore false
beards
to
pretend
to be the
musician
s
whom people
were familiar with
.
In addition
, we
attach
ed
humorous
acts
to our
performances
and
play
ed
jokes on

each other. Soon, our ―funny
jazz
‖
became
famous
and
invitation
s
to
perform
for
broadcast
stations
began
to
come.
Afterwards
, we
sort
ed
out

attractive
music and made
a
record in a
studio
.
A

million
or
so

copies
were
sold
and
we
became
millionaire
s.

It was
painful
that the band
broke up
finally. But
above all
, I realized
my dream to be a musician.



我对音乐很
敏感
，
只要
简要地浏览
一下乐谱，
我就能演唱或演奏得很
好。
说实话
，我一直都
梦想
着能成为出名的
民间演员
，自信的
我从未减
少过
热爱
。


我
组 成
的第一支乐队叫做“
摇滚
蛙”。开始，我们
依靠
在
酒吧< br>里或向
路人表演乐器
来
挣
些
零花的现金
。然后我们带 上假
胡子假扮
人们
熟悉
的
音乐家
，
除此之外
，
我们在
表演
中
加上幽默的
动作，
互相
开着玩笑
。
很快，
我们的
“滑稽
爵士乐
”
出了名，
到
广播
电台表演的
邀请
开始多起来。
随后
，
我们把 我们
吸引人的
音乐做了
分类
，在一间音乐
工作室
录制了1
张唱片，
大约
卖出了
100
万张，这使我们都成了
百 万富翁
。


乐队最终的
解散
让我很心
痛
，但
最重要的是
，我实现了自己当音乐家
的梦想。




Interesting Festival

有趣的节日

The
Agricultural

Feast

take
s
place
after the
Independence
Day. It is not
a
worldwide

celebration
.
Only
Christian
s
in
Mexico

look
forward
to

its
arrival
for its
religious

origin
:

Long ago, humans’
ancestor
s were bad. They
fool
ed and
play
ed
tricks on

each
other
and
never
kept

their
word
.
So
God
turn
ed
up

and
drown
ed
all
their crops. Humans
starve
d
day and night
,
weep
ing. In order to
gain

God’s
forgiveness
,
a
woman
poet

set
off

to
see
God.
She
admire
d
God
and
kept
apologizing
. God was moved. With his
permission
, humans finally had good
harvest
s
again.
So,
to
wipe

sadness

and
remind
themselves

of

the
belief

in
God, people began the festival.

On the festival, people
gather
in open air, such as playgrounds or
parking
lot
s,
and
energetic
ally
have
fun
with

each
other
all
night
long
,
as
though
they
were
never
tired.
When
a
beauty
dress
ed
up

in
lovely
clothing

reads
poems
in
memory
of

the
poet,
everyone
hold
s
their
breath
.
Then,
it
is
the
custom


that
the
bone

of
a
rooster

head
is
given
to
her
as
an
award
.
Obvious
ly, the story is not true, but the festival is interesting.

农业盛会
在
独立
日后
举行
。它不是一个
世界性的庆典< br>，由于它的
宗
教起源
，只有
墨西哥
的
基督徒
才
盼
着节日的
到来
：

很久以前，人类的
祖先很坏，他们互相
欺骗
，
耍诡计
，从不
遵守诺
言
。于是，上帝
出现
了，
淹死
了他们所有的作物。人们
日夜挨饿
，
哭泣
着。
为了
获得
上帝的
原谅
，
一位 女
诗人出发
去见上帝。
她对上帝的
赞美
和
怀有的
歉 意
感动了上帝，有了他的
允许
，人类终于又获得了
丰收
。因此，为了
抹去忧伤

并
提醒
自己
对
上帝的
信仰
，人们开始举办这个节日。
在节日那天，
人们
聚集
在露天场所，
例如操场或
停车场
，
通宵达旦地
玩
得非常开心，
精 力充沛的
人们
似乎
不知疲倦。当一位用可爱的
衣服盛
装打扮
的
美女
朗读诗歌以
纪念
那位诗人时，在场的每个人都
屏住了呼吸，
然后，按照
风俗
，将
奖励
给她一只
公鸡
的头
骨
。

很
明显
，这个故事不是真的，但是节日却很有趣。

help,
but
the

didn’t
permit

his
staff
to
help
though
he
bow

Staring
at

his

he
understood
that
it
was
the
fault
of his skin colour that
account

for
their


refection. So he decided to
take a chance
to sail on a small boat home.

He
met

On

when
bringing
him
a

Aboard,

by working as a barber and got home finally.
As for

he

couldn’t

of
a

17A New Farming Way

新的耕种方式

Tuan was a farmer in
Vietnam
. For
decade
s, he had been
struggling
to
rid
his family of
hunger
. However, it always
confuse
d him how to
expand
the
output

of
his
crop
s.
This
disturbing
problem
led
to
his
regret
ting
being
a
farmer. He
would rather
have chosen another job.


One day, when
skim
ming through a newspaper, Tuan read a
comment
on
Yuan
Longpin.
He
underline
d
Yuan’s
nationality

and
occupation
,
and
then
focus
ed
on

his
discovery

and
the
statistic
s
of
his
research.
He
found
the
knowledge
Yuan
circulate
d
very
practical.
Therefore
,
he
made
a
summary

and began to
build up
a new farming method. He planted
super grain
of rich
nutrition
and
equip
ped himself to keep his crops
root
s free from
bacteria
and

pest
s.
He
also
enriched
mineral
s
in
the
soil

while
reducing
chemical
fertilizer
s. Though it cost him more time and

freedom
, he was full of hope.

The next year, Tuan was
sunburnt
but
satisfied with
his
production
very
much.
Thanks to
Yuan Longpin, he not only won the
battle
against hunger,
but he could also
export
his crops abroad.




俊是一名

的农民，几
十年
来，他 都一直在
努力使
家人
摆脱
饥饿。
然而，如何
扩大
他 的
农作物产量
这一问题却一直在
困扰
着他。这个
恼人
的问题
导致
了他

后悔
当一名农民，而
宁愿
自己当初选择其它的工作。

一天 ，俊在
浏览
报纸的时候，读到一篇关于袁隆平的
评论
。他在袁的
国籍
和
职业下面划了线
，然后将
焦点集中在
他的
发现
和 研究
数据
上。他
发现袁
传播
的知识非常实用，
因此
，
他做了
摘要
，
并开始
建立
一种新的耕
作方式。他 种植
营养
丰富的
超级谷物
，
添置设备
以使作物的
根 部
免受
细
菌害虫
的伤害；他还增加
土壤
所含的
矿物 质
，同时
减少化学肥料
的使用。
尽管耗费了他更多的时间和
自由，他却充满着希望。


第二年，
俊被
晒黑
了，
但是却对自己的
生产
非常
满意
。
多亏了
袁隆平，
他不仅赢得了对抗饥饿的

战斗
，而且还将自己的作物
出口
到国外呢。

。
粥
都吃完了，
他只好
挑
出一只鞋子煮来吃 。
他
切下皮革
的鞋底，
像
烙饼
一样地
咀嚼
起来。
据一名
女演员
所说，他的表演是如此地
令人信服
而又
逗人发笑的
，以致在
场的所有人都
忍不住
大笑起来。


19.A Misunderstanding

一场误会

In general
,
spoken statement
s are the
major
way of communication, but
body
language
and
facial

expressions
also
have
such
kinds
of
function
.
For
example,
yawn
ing
means
being
not
interested
and
turn
ing
one’s
back

to

someone
or
swinging
your
fist

shows
your
anger
.
But
what
those
gestures
really
mean
is
subjective

in
different
cultures.
Thus,
misunderstand
ings
happen

now
and
then
in
today’s
world
of
cultural
crossroads
.
Once,
represent
ing
the
Adult
s’
Education
Association
,
I
went
to
the
airport
to
meet
an
official
of
high
rank

from
Columbia

and
take
him
to
his
dormitory

and
then
to
the
canteen
.
After
the
flight

arrived,
I
saw
a
man
looking around
curious
ly. So I
approach
ed to
greet
him. He suddenly
dash
ed
to
hug

me
and
kissed
me
on
both
cheek
s.
As
a
young
girl,
I
felt
truly

embarrassed and put up my hands to
defend
myself. His
false
smile told me
that he had
lost face
.

Later, I received a
cassette
from him, in which he recorded his apology.
On
hearing
that
Columbians
were

more
likely
to

kiss
others,
I
soon
felt
at
ease
.


通常说来
，
口头表达
是人们交流的
主要
方法，
但是肢体语言和
面部
表
情也有这种
功能
。
例如，
打哈欠
意味着不感兴趣 ，
背对
别人或向其挥舞
拳
头
表达的是
愤怒
。
但是在不同的文化中那些手势表达的真正意思是很
主观
的
。由此，
误会
就时不时地发生在今天这个文化
交叉
碰撞的世界里。
有一回，我
代表成人
教育
协会
到机场去接一位从
哥伦比亚
来的高
级< br>官员，
我得带他到
宿舍
和
食堂
。
当他的
航班
到达时，
我看见一名男子
好奇
地
东张西望，于是
走上前去< br>和他
打招呼
。他突然
猛冲
过来
拥抱
我，还亲
了我的
脸颊
。
还是个年轻姑娘的我感到
真
尴尬，
不由自主举 起手来
保护
自
己。他的
假
笑告诉我他感到
丢了面子
。

后来，
我收到他送来的一盒
磁带
，
里面录了他的道歉。
当听到这只是
因为哥伦比亚人更
倾向于
见面时互相亲吻时，我很快就感到轻松安心
了。
