北师大版高中英语模块4--Unit12CultureShock Lesson3-2
[00:01.73]But my host kept on putting more food
[00:04.27]in my rice bowl.
[00:05.88]They didn't seem to hear me saying
[00:07.72]"No, thank you" in my poor spoken Chinese.
[00:10.86]This was a very special experience
[00:12.73]I had in China.In my culture,
[00:14.87]you don't get more food
[00:16.10]if you don't ask for more.
[00:17.99]Martin
[00:19.73]I had a similar experience the last time
[00:22.56]I visited China.
[00:24.82]The Chinese are the friendliest people
[00:26.59]I have every met.
[00:28.20]After my visit to a Chinese family,
[00:30.57]my friend's grandfather
[00:31.92]wouldn't let me go to the bus station alone,
[00:34.64]he insisted on walking me
[00:35.83]to the station to see me off.
[00:37.96]I kept saying that I knew the way my self,
[00:40.23]but it just did not work.
[00:41.88]What he did was amazing.
[00:43.81]This will not happen in many other cultures,
[00:45.45]I guess. Tom
[00:47.96]Chinese people are very modest too.
[00:50.84]Last time, when I visited China,
[00:52.78]we saw the tour guide
[00:53.97]wearing a very pretty for coat
[00:55.90]on the day we left.
[00:57.25]I told her the coat suited her,
[00:59.05]but she looked very embarrassed,
[01:01.02]saying that it was a cheap one she had boutht
[01:03.07]a long time ago. I was surprised.
[01:05.47]In my culture, when people say nice things
[01:07.51]about us, we feel very happy and say thanks.
