专题06 语言学习与文化差异—2021高考英语书面表达经典好文推送

六、语言学习与文化差异
1．请阅读下面一篇短文，并按照要求用英语写一篇150 词左右的文章。

Dear Uncle，
I am a senior three student who is facing great difficulty in English learning.My problem mostly lies on the learning and memorizing of English words.
You know，in order to achieve a good score in the College Entrance English Examination，we are supposed to have a vocabulary of around 3，500 English words.However，it seems impossible for me to remember all of them，even half of them.
Every week，we have to learn around 10 new words and review 20 words from our textbook.To help us，my teacher Miss Li usually first explains the meaning and usages of them in class.Then，I will spend a lot of time trying to memorize my notes taken in class.What troubles me is that I am always slower than most of my classmates who seem never to fail the next day's dictation given by the teacher to test our vocabulary mastery.Instead，I have been a frequent visitor to her re－dictation room.Watching her worried and tired face，I always think to myself，“Why am I so stupid as to trouble both her and me so much？” Or rather，there is something wrong with my strategies and the way my teacher helps me?
I know you are good at English learning.Hope you can rescue me.
Best regards!
Xiaofang

Dear__Xiaofang，
In__your__letter，you talked about your difficulty in English vocabulary learning and asked me for help.You also described your learning methods and how your teacher helped you，both in class and after class.
You are not stupid at all.The problem lies in your method.Memorization，which you adopt，is not the sole solution.For a word to really become a part of your vocabulary，you'd better see more about how it is used in more reading and listening.Besides，don't forget to use it in your speaking and writing whenever you have chances.The more frequently you see it and use it，the better it can be remembered.
As to how your teacher helps you，I think she also should make a change.For example，introduce and consolidate the target words in a rich context and allow you more time for practice in class，instead of endless explanation and dictation.
Hope__my__opinion__will__be__of__some__help__to__you．
Yours__sincerely

例一：
The above descriptions and picture show us that cultural differences can be often experienced.People from different countries behave in different ways，for example，interpersonal communication，greetings，and table manners.
Frankly speaking，it's necessary for us to acknowledge cultural differences.For example，it's polite for a receiver to open the gift upon receiving it abroad while it's a different story in China.Unlike Chinese，American people care more about personal space when keeping a conversation with others.
Personally，we can't highlight the importance of cultural differences enough.People should accumulate as much information about cultures as possible through reading or the Internet，thus avoiding unintentional offense while in contact with people from different cultures，especially in the era of globalization.What's more，we should bear in mind that mutual understanding and respect matter in the global village，and enjoy a very “When in Rome，do as the Romans do” mentality.
例二：
When traveling，greeting and even taking a party in a different country，we easily feel embarrassed.Obviously there exist cultural differences between countries in interpersonal communication，greetings and table manners.
Lots of phenomenon account for cultural differences.For example，Chinese people don't have the same concept of privacy as Americans do.They talk about topics such as ages or income，which Americans think is annoying.Chinese leave－taking is very short and quick but western people think it's so abrupt that they haven't prepared for cking awareness of cultural differences may cause misunderstanding.
People should accumulate enough information about cultures through reading or the Internet，thus avoiding unintentional offense while in contact with people from different cultures，especially in the era of globalization.We should bear in mind that mutual understanding and respect matter in the global village，and enjoy a very “When in Rome，do as the Romans do” mentality.

A set of textbook designed to help high school student learn about Chinese traditional culture is to be published soon，Beijing Times reported on Monday.
The books are the first national－level works of their kind and have been developed by a working group that promotes traditional culture.They will be used by students from autumn this year，the report said.
The set contains four classics from ancient times.Two of the works，The Confucian Analects and Mencius，are for 10th－grade students，while the other two，Great Learning and Dao De Jing，will be used by 11th graders.
The initiative follows a series of steps the authorities have taken in recent years to spread and promote traditional Chinese culture on campus.
Last April，the Ministry of Education released a series of guidelines requiring the inclusion of more information about traditional culture in primary and middle school textbooks，especially those used for subjects such as Chinese language，history，art and physical education.
The guidelines said students' knowledge of traditional culture will be tested in the senior high school entrance examination and the gaokao，the college entrance exam.

From this autumn，new schoolbooks highlighting the traditional Chinese culture will be used by senior students，whose knowledge of the country's ancient traditions will also be tested in the gaokao.
There're several factors accounting for the move.The set of books are the significant component of traditional Chinese culture and provide teenagers with internal codes of conduct and thus they will play a positive role in their process of growth.Besides，the basic education system hasn't attached enough importance to the learning of traditional culture for quite a long time，and the textbooks are a beneficial effort to reverse that situation.In addition，learning traditional culture is not solely about reciting texts—it's about utilizing ancient wisdom to solve current problems.
Personally，I strongly support and welcome the move in that it is an initiative to bring Chinese traditional culture back.However，considering individual differences between students，I am not in complete agreement with the practice that they will be tested in the gaokao.。
