加拿大介绍Canada Introduction
Canada IntroductionCanada has a population just less than 30 million people in a country twice the area of the United States. The heritage of Canada was French and English; however, significant immigration from Asia and Europe's non-French and English countries has broadened Canada's cultural richness. This cultural diversity is considered a national asset, and the Constitution Act prohibits discrimination against individual citizens on the basis of race, color, religion, or sex. The great majority of Canadians are Christian. Although the predominant language in Canada is English, there are at least three varieties of French that are recognized: Quebecois in Quebec, Franco-Manitoban throughout Manitoba and particularly in the St. Boniface area of Winnipeg, and Acadian. The Italian language is a strong third due to a great influx of Italian immigrants following W.W.II. Canada's three major cities are distinctively, even fiercely different from one another even though each is a commercially thriving metropolitan center. Montreal, established in the 17th century and the largest French city outside France, has a strong influence of French architecture and culture. It is a financial and manufacturing centerand seaport, with the majority of Canada's European exports and imports coming through its harbor. Toronto, another major financial and commercial center, is filled with office towers not historic buildings. It has a great number of people living in and around the central business district. The downtown district does not "close up" when people leave work. Vancouver, nestled at the base of the Coast Mountains, is the financial, commercial, agricultural, and industrial center for western Canada. It's harbor and mountains make it one of Canada's most picturesque. Consequently, West Vancouver is the most densely populated urban area and has the highest income per person of any municipality.Canada Fun FactThe western frontier was "opened" in 1885 when the Canadian transcontinental railroad completed its peaceful construction process. The railroad offered cheap land so immigrants moved in communities establishing towns with citizens from the same European country. These settlements, along with the Inuit communities, give Canada cultural diversity across its nation, not just in major metropolitan cities. Keep in mind that Quebec, because it is a French province, has a verydifferent value system from the rest of Canada, with its predominately English influence.Geert Hofstede Analysis for CanadaThe majority of Canadians, as well as citizens of other English speaking countries, (see Great Britain, Australia, New Zealand, and the United States) have individualism ranked highest. Success is measure by personal achievement. Canadians tend to be self-confident and open to discussions on general topics; however, they hold their personal privacy off limits to all but the closest friends. It should be noted there is tension between the French province of Quebec and other Canadian provinces. Citizens of Quebec tend to be more private and reserved. Ethnocentrism is high throughout Canada, but particularly in Quebec.Canada has Individualism (IDV) as the highest ranking (80) Hofstede Dimension, and is indicative of a society with a more individualistic attitude and relatively loose bonds with others. The populace is more self-reliant and looks out for themselves and their close family members. Privacy is considered the cultural norm and attempts at personal ingratiating may meet with rebuff.The majority of Canadians, as well as citizens ofother English speaking countries, (see United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, and the United States) have Individualism as their highest ranking Dimension.Among high IDV countries, success is measured by personal achievement. Canadians tend to be self-confident and open to discussions on general topics; however, they hold their personal privacy off limits to all but the closest friends .Canadian's lowest ranking Dimension is Long Term Orientation at 23, compared to the average of 45 among the 23 countries surveyed for which scores have been calculated. This low LTO ranking is indicative of societies' belief in meeting its obligations and tends to reflect an appreciation for cultural traditions.Canada's Power Distance (PDI) is relatively low, with an index of 39, compared to a world average of 55. This is indicative of a greater equality between societal levels, including government, organizations, and even within families. This orientation reinforces a cooperative interaction across power levels and creates a more stable cultural environment.It should be noted there is tension between the French province of Quebec and other Canadianprovinces. Citizens of Quebec tend to be more private and reserved. Ethnocentrism is high throughout Canada, but particularly in Quebec. This may be in part due to the difference in religious background of the French population, predominately Catholic, and the English population, predominantly Christian.The predominant religions in Canada are Catholic 42% and Christian 40%, but the population is somewhat segregated, with a high percentage of French Catholic's in Quebec. Note that the predominant religion in France is Catholic (83%) and in the United Kingdom is Christian (70%).Appearance in CanadaPlan for a very cold climate, especially during their winter.Men should wear a dark conservative business suit with tie, especially in cities. Build a wardrobe based on classic lines (selecting suits with a traditional lapel width, and ties staying within a traditional width range). Conservative colors of navy and gray, and shirts in white and light blue.Women should wear a conservative business suit or dress, especially in cities. Select yourclothing with classic lines and colors in mind. Navy, gray, ivory, and white are the basics to work with. The major cities can be very sophisticated.New or trendy clothing is a poor choice. Older, classic clothing that is clean and neat is more valued. Choosing quality, natural fibers for your wardrobe will give you this look. Quality leather shoes are important to completing this look.Rural areas are less formal, but stay conservative in your wardrobe. Even with cold winter weather you may find yourself in a skirt or dress. Add a good quality long coat with minimal and classic detail to your wardrobe. In addition to navy and gray, a classic camel coat, or a lined Burberry may be a good addition. This will work for a sophisticated city meeting, or a more casual rural meeting.Casual attire is appropriate when you are not working. The weather and activity will dictate what you will be wearing. Build a casual wardrobe using the classic colors (camel is additional color for casual). You will look professional, even though relaxed.The "V for Victory" sign is an insult if your palm is facing yourself. If you must use this sign, face your palm outward.Behavior in CanadaBe punctual for meetings and appointments, as promptness is valued. In French areas, time is more relaxed. However, you will be expected to arrive at the appointed time, even if the French attending the meeting don't.Always maintain a reserved demeanor, and follow good rules of etiquette. Traditions and gracious manners are part of the culture, even in more rural areas. If you travel to different cities or areas, pay attention to local customs. By being observant, you will respect the pace and nuances of each area.Do not eat while walking in public. Plan your time so you can stop in a café or restaurant to enjoy your snack.Gifts are not routinely given. If you do give a gift when you arrive or when you are leaving, make it a modest one. A lavish gift, though accepted, would be frowned upon.Gifts are given to celebrate finalizing a negotiation, a contract, or a project. Gifts for the office, a nice bottle of wine or liquor would be appropriate.Taking a business associate to a nice meal or an evening sporting event, play, or symphony is always a nice gesture.Invitations to private homes are rare. Occasionally, in the western provinces, you may be invited to someone's home. If you are invited, you may take candy, flowers, or liquor to the host or hostess.Wait for your host to start a business conversation during or following a meal. Traditionally, business is not discussed during dinner; however, this is slowly changing.Personal space and body movement or gestures differ between the English and the French provinces and cities. In English areas, body movement is minimal, there is rarely touching other than handshakes, and personal space - how close someone stands - is about two feet. In French areas, people stand closer together,people will frequently touch, and gestures are more expressive.Communications in CanadaUse a firm handshake with good eye contact when meeting and leaving. Both French and English areas use and expect a firm handshake.Men will wait for a woman to extend her hand for a handshake.French Canadians will shake hands more frequently, even with a subsequent encounter the same day. Others may just nod or smile at a subsequent encounter on the same day.Use a person's title if he or she has one. Otherwise, use Mr., Mrs., Miss and the surname.English is spoken in most of Canada. French is spoken in Quebec, and some area of Nova Scotia and New BrunswickFrench Canadians may use their first name when talking to you on the telephone, but will generally use their full name when meeting you in person.Be open and friendly in your conversation. If youare naturally reserved in your behavior, you will appear confident and credible. If your natural tendency is large sweeping arm gestures, restrain yourself when meeting and talking with Canadians- other than with French Canadians.French Canadians stand closer and are more demonstrative when talking.For French Canadians, print all material in French and English.Don't be boastful, and don't overstate yourproduct or service's capabilities. You couldimplicate your company in a legal situation.If you are from the U. S., don't say, "we Americans", inferring you are including your Canadian hosts or guests in your reference.Canada is a distinct country with its ownwonderful history and culture.AFTER YOU ARRIVEOnce you arrive in Canada, it's a great idea to get involved in your new community right away, even before you feel the possible effects of home-sickness. Your new school will likely have activities and programs for international students, as well as opportunities to talk with both peers and counsellors about any problems or concerns you might have.It's also a good idea to get involved with other activities on campus, and to make friends with Canadian students. Most schools have clubs, recreationalsports or other activities and organizations available for students to join, including film clubs, running clubs or musical groups and organizations. There are also independent immigrant associations in most cities aimed at helping new arrivals to Canada settle in. Your university or local Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) office will be able to give you a list of such societies and associations. All of these organizations and activities provide the opportunity to make friends and be better integrated into the community, reducing your chances of loneliness or isolation.Be patient with yourself and with other people, and never be afraid to ask for help. Canadians in general are a friendly, open people and are happy to help you feel more welcome.List of Canadian slang words orphrases2-4 — (two four) a case of 24 beer ("Beer"being the plural of "Beer" in much ofCanada.)26er (also 2-6, twixer) — a 262⁄3 imperial fl oz(758 ml) in earlier times, or 750 ml (26.4 fl oz) bottle ofalcohol40 — a 40 fl oz (1 imperial quart, 1.14 L) bottle of alcohol.(see forty pounder)66er — a former 66.6 imperial fl oz (1/2 U.S. gallon, 1.89 L)bottle of alcohol, probably also applied to 1.75 L (61.6imperial fl oz) bottles (see gripper)"AADAC" (ay-dack) from the Alberta Alcohol and DrugAbuse Commission, used to refer to any sort of beveragewhich would get you drunk thus making you prime candidatefor alcohol addiction.alcool — grain alcohol; everclear (from French, but pronounced as in English)The Ballet — Strip club, or exotic dance club.Baywop — Someone living in a rural area centered around abay.

However, the connection between time and productivity is not always positive. In fact, many studies show that after a certain point, employees become less productive as the number of hours they work increases.There are several reasons for this. First, when people work long hours, they tend to get tired. This makes it difficult for them to concentrate and perform at their best. Second, long hours can also lead to stress. Stress can have a negative impact on both physical and mental health, which in turn can affect productivity.Some companies have started to recognize this problem and are taking steps to address it. For example, they are implementing flexible work schedules. This allows employees to have more control over their work hours and can help them to be more productive.16.

One area where the Internet has had a particularly significant impact is in education.Online courses are becoming more and more popular. There are many reasons for this. For one thing, online courses are very convenient. Students can study at their own pace and at a time that suits them. They can also access course materials from anywhere in the world.Another advantage of online courses is that they are often less expensive than traditional courses. This makes them more accessible to a wider range of students.However, online courses also have some disadvantages. One problem is that students may feel isolated. They may not have the same opportunities to interact with their classmates and instructors as they would in a traditional classroom setting. Another issue is that some online courses may not be of the same quality as traditional courses.19.

Men and women can't be 'just friends'
• So, can men and women be “just friends?” If we all thought like women, almost certainly. But if we all thought like men, we’d probably be facing a serious overpopulation crisis. • 因此，男女之间存在纯粹的友谊吗？ 如果我们都像女人那样想，答案当然 是肯定的。但如果我们都像男人那样 去想，那地球上就要人口大爆炸了。
• The results suggest large gender differences in how men and women experience oppositesex friendships. Men were much more attracted to Байду номын сангаасheir female friends than vice versa. Men were also more likely than women to think that their opposite-sex friends were attracted to them—a clearly misguided belief. • 研究结果显示，男性与女性对待异性友谊的 态度有很大差别。与女性对男性的态度相比， 男性更容易喜欢上女性朋友。男性也更容易 觉得女性朋友喜欢他们，这当然是一种错觉。
• Men were also more willing to act on this mistakenly perceived mutual attraction. Both men and women were equally attracted to romantically involved opposite-sex friends and those who were single; “hot” friends were hot and “not” friends were not, regardless of their relationship status. • 男性也更愿意为这种误判的互相吸引付诸行动。男性与女性被异 性朋友吸引时，都与对方是否单身无关，在这一点上男女并无差 异。帅哥靓妹更受欢迎，而长相平平的则无人倾心，与对方的感 情状况无关。 • However, men and women differed in the extent to which they saw attached friends as potential romantic partners. Although men were equally as likely to desire “romantic dates” with “taken” friends as with single ones, women were sensitive to their male friends’ relationship status and uninterested in pursuing those who were already involved with someone else. • 但在将“名花有主”的异性朋友视为潜在的浪漫对象的程度上， 男女之间存在差别。尽管男性不管女性朋友是否单身，都期待和 她的“浪漫约会”，但女性对男性朋友的感情状况非常敏感，对 追求已经不再单身的男性没有兴趣。
