5、al differences Ma Li: Hi, everyone. My names Ma Li. I need some help on my homeworkits about cultural differences. Can I sit down and talk to you? Waled: Hi, Ma Li, Im Waled from Brunei. Peter: And Im Peter, from the UK. Nice to meet you. Ma Li: Nice to meet you, too. Can you tell me about some cult
6、ural differences you have found? Peter: Waled, why dont you tell her about the British teacher who opened the present as soon as he received it at the end-of-term ceremony? Ma Li: Oh, I already know about that one. My American friend Jack did the same thing. Peter: Well, its what we do in the West.
7、Its rude not to open a present when someone gives you one. We like to see how the person reacts. We think its strange not to open it! What would be another cultural difference . let me think. Well, I once went to an acquaintances wedding in Korea and I was very surprised. Ma Li: Why was that? Peter:
8、 Well, they had a live hen and a rooster as a part of the wedding ceremony. Ma Li: Live chickens? Peter: Yes. Roosters are supposed to drive bad spirits away from the wedding ceremony, and hens are thought to ensure good luck for the marriage. During the ceremony, the hen laid an egg, and everyone c
9、ongratulated the new couple because it was considered very lucky. Waled: Thats interesting! In Brunei, at wedding receptions men and women have to sit in separate areasthe men with the bridegroom, and the women with the bride. Another difference is that while we serve food, soft drinks, tea and coff
10、ee, alcohol is not permitted at the wedding receptionin fact, alcohol is altogether prohibited in Brunei. And you probably wouldnt get much sleep if you lived near where a wedding reception was being held. Thats because we play loud drums to celebrate the wedding for hours afterwards, and sometimes
11、even throughout the night! Peter: Throughout the night? Waled: Yeah, people get used to it. Ma Li: So what other things do you do in your country that are different from other countries, Waled? Waled: Well, you know in many countries people point with their first finger. However, in Brunei that can
12、cause offence, so we use our thumb to point. Its quite funny watching the new foreign teachers trying to adjust to doing that. Another thing is, if you came to Brunei, you would have to take off your shoes before going into someones house. Many foreigners have trouble getting accustomed to it. Peter
13、: But what is really interesting is that there are sometimes great cultural differences even between native English speakers. I am always amazed at how Americans are so different from us Brits. Even though we share the same languagewith different accents, of courseour customs are not always alike. M
14、a Li: Really? Peter: Yes. For example, I have fond childhood memories of Bonfire Night, but my American friends are not familiar with that particular festival. Ma Li: Well, Im not familiar with it either. Peter: Oh, its a celebration that takes place on November 5th every year. People light large fi
15、res outside, and everyone gathers around and has a party. There are plenty of fireworks, and everyone eats hot dogs and other food that can be cooked over the fire. Its great fun. Ma Li: Well, its time for me to go. This has been a really interesting chat. I think now I understand a lot more about d
16、ifferent cultures and what is appropriate behaviour. Its really helped me with my homework! I hope we can talk again soon. After all, learning about cultural differences is a gOod way to understand more about each other. See you later! Waled: See you! Peter: Right, later! HANDWRITING PAPER _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
