本课旨在帮助学生进一步掌握有关文化差异和交际技巧的知识，并提高他们的英语阅读和理解能力。
本课的主题是文化差异与语言交际，通过讲解和讨论相关话题，培养学生的跨文化交际意识和能力。
1.1 教学目标•了解不同文化背景下的交际差异•掌握谈论文化差异的词汇和表达方式•提高阅读技巧和理解能力•培养跨文化交际意识和能力1.2 教学内容•课文导入•词汇讲解•阅读理解•文化差异与交际技巧讨论•练习与巩固2. 课堂内容2.1 课文导入首先，我们将通过一个小故事来引入本节课的主题。
请看下面这个故事：Mr. Smith, an American businessman, went to China on a business trip. On the first day of his visit, he had a meeting withhis Chinese partners. During the meeting, Mr. Smith crossed his legs, showing the sole of his shoe to the Chinese partners. This action caused great offense to the Chinese partners, as showing the sole of one’s shoe is considered impolite in Chinese culture.通过这个故事，我们可以看到不同文化背景下的交际差异。
在中国文化中，露出鞋底是不礼貌的，而在美国文化中可能没有这样的问题。
这个例子揭示了文化差异对交际的影响。
2.2 词汇讲解在本节课中，我们将学习一些与文化差异和交际技巧相关的词汇和表达方式。
请看下面的表格：单词词性解释cultural adj.文化的difference n.差异、区别communication n.交流、沟通etiquette n.礼仪offend v.冒犯、得罪gesture n.手势misinterpret v.误解appropriate adj.适当的foreign adj.外国的respect n./v.尊重behavior n.行为custom n.习俗tradition n.传统adapt v.适应、调整misunderstand v.误解social adj.社交的interaction n.互动diplomatic adj.外交的sensitive adj.敏感的cultural adj.文化的language n.语言、表达方式custom n.风俗、习惯2.3 阅读理解现在，让我们阅读一篇与文化差异和交际技巧相关的短文，并回答以下问题：Cultural Differences in CommunicationWhen people from different cultures meet and communicate, there are often challenges and misunderstandings due to cultural differences. For example, in some cultures, it is common to maintain direct eye contact during a conversation as a sign of respect and attention, while in other cultures, avoiding eye contact is seen as a sign of respect. Thus, what is considered polite in one culture may be considered impolite in another.Another important aspect of cross-cultural communication is body language and gestures. Different cultures have different meanings behind certain gestures. For example, the。

About the writer
Uncle Tom’s Children Native Son Black Boy
The Ku Klux Klan (KKK) is a white supremacist organization that was founded in 1866. Throughout its notorious history, factions of the secret fraternal organization have used acts of terrorism—including murder, Lynching, Arson, rape, and bombing—to oppose the granting of Civil Rights to African Americans. Deriving its membership from native-born, white Protestant U.S. citizens, the KKK has also been anti-Semitic and anti-Catholic, and has opposed the immigration of all those it does not view as "racially pure." Other names for the group have been White Brotherhood, Heroes of America, Constitutional Union Guards, and Invisible Empire.
Irish Catholic is a term used to describe people who are both Catholic and Irish (or of Irish descent). Divisions between Irish Catholics and Irish Protestants (both those who would eventually be called the Protestant Ascendancy and those Protestants of more humble societal position) have played a major role in the history of Ireland from the Reformation to The Troubles.

U5-p.52
Track 11
Commitment
If two people are to make a relationship work, intimacy and passion must be maintained through thick and thin. When time gets rough, both parties must attempt to resolve the problems based on the assumption that the other person also wants to do so, too. Part of commitment means offering support to your partner whenever possible. However, this doesn’t entail blindly accepting everything the other person says or does. It’s perfectly fine to agree or disagree. Respecting differences in opinions and points of view is an important part of any relationship.

Unit 5TextA mother and her son learn more form a moment of defeat than they ever could from a victory. Her example of never giving up gives him courage for the rest of his life.The Day Mother CriedGerald MooreComing home from school that dark winter's day so long ago, I was filled with anticipation. I had a new issue of my favorite sports magazine tucked under my arm, and the house to myself. Dad was at work, my sister was away, and Mother wouldn't be home from her new job for an hour.I bounded up the steps, burst into the living room and flipped on a light.I was shocked into stillness by what I saw. Mother, pulled into a tight ball with her face in her hands, sat at the far end of the couch. She was crying. I had never seen her cry.I approached cautiously and touched her shoulder. "Mother?" I said "What's happened?"She took a long breath and managed a weak smile. "It's nothing, really. Nothing important. Just than I'm going to lose this new job. I can't type fast enough.""But you've only been there three days," I said. "You'll catch on." I was repeating a line she had spoken to me a hundred times when I was having trouble learning or doing something important to me."No." she said sadly. "I always said I could do anything I set my mind to, and I still think I can in most things. But I can't do this."I felt helpless and out of place. At age 16 I still assumed Mother could do anything. Some years before, when we sold our ranch and moved to town, Mother had decided to open a day nursery. She had had no training, but that didn't stand in her way. She sent away for correspondence courses in child care, did the lessons and in six months formally qualified herself for the task. It wasn't long before she had a full enrollment and a waiting list. I accepted all this as a perfectly normal instance of Mother's ability.But neither the nursery nor the motel my parents bought later had provided enough income to send my sister and me to college. In two years I would be ready for college. In three more my sister would want to go. Time was running out, and Mother was frantic for ways to save money. It was clear that Dad could do no more than he was doing already——farming 80 acres in addition to holding a fulltime job.A few months after we'd sold the motel, Mother arrived home with a use typewriter. It skipped between certain letters and the keyboard was soft. At dinner that night I pronounced the machine a "piece of junk.""That's all we can afford," mother said. "It's good enough to learn on." And from that day on, as soon as the table was cleared and the dishes were done, Mother would disappear into her sewing room to practice. The slow tap, tap, tap went on some nights until midnight.It was nearly Christmas when I heard Mother got a job at the radio station. I was not the least bit surprised, or impressed. But she was ecstatic.Monday, after her first day at work, I could see that the excitement was gone. Mother looked tired and drawn. I responded by ignoring her.Tuesday, Dad made dinner and cleaned the kitchen. Mother stayed in her sewing room, practicing. "Is Mother all right?" I asked Dad."She's having a little trouble with her typing," he said. "She needs to practice. I think she'd appreciate it if we all helped out a bit more.""I already do a lot," I said, immediately on guard."I know you do," Dad said evenly. "And you may have to do more. You might just remember that she is working primarily so you can go to college."I honestly didn't care. I wished she would just forget the whole thing.My shock and embarrassment at finding Mother in tears on Wednesday was a perfect index of how little I understood the pressures on her. Sitting beside her on the couch, I began very slowly to understand."I guess we al have to fail sometime," Mother said quietly. I could sense her pain and the tension of holding back the strong emotions that were interrupted by my arrival. Suddenly, something inside me turned. I reached out and put my arms around her.She broke then. She put her face against my shoulder and sobbed. I help her close and didn't try to talk. I knew I was doing what I should, what I could, and that it was enough. In that moment, feeling Mother's back racked with emotion, I understood for the first time her vulnerability. She was still my mother, but she was something more: a person like me, capable of fear and hurt and failure. I could feel her pain as she must have felt mine on a thousand occasions when I had sought comfort in her arms.A week later Mother took a job selling dry goods at half the salary the radio station had offered. "It's a job I can do," she said simply. But the evening practice sessions on the old green typewriter continued. I had a very different feeling now when I passed her door at night and heard her tapping away. I knew there was something more going on in there than a woman learning to type.When I left for college two years later, Mother had an office job with better pay and more responsibility. I have to believe that in some strange way she learned as much from her moment of defeat as I did, because several years later, when I had finished school and proudly accepted a job as a newspaper reporter, she had already been a journalist with our hometown paper for six months.The old green typewriter sits in my office now, unrepaired. It is a memento, but what it recalls for me is not quite what if recalled for Mother. When I'm having trouble with a story and think about giving up or when I start to feel sorry for myself and think things should be easier for me, I roll a piece of paper into that cranky old machine and type, word by painful word, just the way mother did. What I remember then is not her failure, but her courage, the courage to go ahead.It's the best memento anyone ever gave me.NEW WORDSanticipationn. expectationanticipatevt.issuen. 发行物（刊物的）一期tuckvt. put or push into a desired convenient position so as to hold tightly; draw together into a small space 塞（进）；卷（起）boundvi. move along quickly by jumping or leaping movements 跳跃flipv. turn or move quickly or with a jerktighta. drawn, fixed or fastened together firmly 紧的，牢的ad. firmly, closelycouchn. a long comfortable seat with a back and arms on which more than one person may sit; sofa 长沙发椅approachv. come near or nearer(to)cautiouslyad. very carefully 细心地，谨慎地cautious a.typevt. write (sth.) with a typewriterlinen. a row of words in a poem; a row of words on a page of writing or in print （诗、文的）一行helplessa. unable to look after oneself or take action to help others, powerlessassumevt. take as true without actual proof; suppose 假设，主观认为ranchn. a very large farm for raising horses, cattle or sheep 大牧场，大农场nurseryn. a place where small children are temporarily cared for 托儿所day nurseryn. a place where small children are cared for during the daytrainingn. the process of training or being trained; instructioncorrespondencen. the act of exchanging letters 通信correspondence coursen. an educational course in which instruction and work are exchanged between the teacher and student by post 函授课程formallyad. according to proper rules or lawful forms 正式地formal a.qualifyvt. make fit or competent for a special purpose 使具有资格enrol(l)mentn. the number of people who have registered themselves as members of a school, a program, etc.; registering 注册人数，注册，登记enrol(l)v. 注册，登记moteln. a roadside hotel providing overnight lodging for motorists 汽车旅馆frantica. wildly anxious, afraid, happy, etc.acren. 英亩additionn. the act of adding 加，加法full-timea. occupying all normal working hourstypewritern. 打字机keyboardn. the set of keys on a typewriter, piano, etc. 键盘junkn. old useless things 破烂，垃圾tapn. a short light blow 轻叩midnightn. the middle of the night 午夜ecstatica. marked by a state of overwhelming emotion, esp. great joy 欣喜若狂的drawna.

The Twelve Angry Men was written in 1954 based on his experience as a juror. The play was turned into a movie in 1957 with Henry Fonda starring as No8.The present text isbased on of that movie. with much abridgement. What distinguished Rose’s teleplays was their direct preoccupation with social and political issues.﹡Useful legal termsJudiciary system: judge, 12 jurors, lawyer, plaintiff, defendant, public prosecutorThe jury trial is an important component in the U.S. judicial system. The jury consists of 12 jurors, selected at random, agreed on by the lawyers of the two sides, who will, after hearing all the evidenced and cross-examination and careful deliberation, give a verdict of guilty or not guilty. Today no jury would be made up entirely of men any more. Women now serve on juries as much as men.﹡JuryJury: is a group of up to 12 people, called “Jurors” whose duty it is to listen to the evidence given in a court trial and decide whether the accused is guilty or not guilty. The decision is called a “verdict”. If the verdict is not guilty, the accused is set free or acquitted; if the verdict is guilty, the judge will give the sentence.﹡Court System•Jurisdiction司法: by the Highest Court, the High Court, the Middle Court, the district courts, thelower courts•Legislation立法: by the Congress, hearings听证会•①The accused is deemed innocent until and unless proved “ guilty” beyond a reasonable doubt.•②In many jurisdictions, the majority of a jury is not sufficient to find a defendant guilty ofa felony.•③A trial does not aim at discovering who commit a particular crime, but rather the innocence or guilt of the accused.•④The system is not infallible and can be quite precarious.﹡A criminal court• A criminal court is a court of law which hears cases brought by the state against a person or a corporation which has violated a criminal law enacted by the legislature.﹡Police•Scotland Y ard 伦敦警察厅•NYPD, LAPD police department 警察局•FBI Federal Bureau of Investigation•Sheriff (美)县治安官•Police officer•区分：Security guard 保安, Firefighters, fire brigade,•Court-martial 军事法庭, international tribunal 国际法庭3.About the textTwelve Angry Men was adapted by Reginald Roes in1950s. It is about an 18-year-old boy who is on trial for murder, accused of knifing his father to death .The twelve jurors retire to the jury room, having been admonished that the defendant is innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. It turned out that in the first voting .all the 11 jurors vote for conviction. Except No.8, who feels there is a reasonable doubt, which prevents a quick verdict. The juror8 resolutely and painstakingly explains his reasons for doing that. During the heated deliberations, evidence that felt rock-solid is revealed to be dubious and the hidden preconceptions and assumptions of the jurors are revealed. At last, juror8 convinces every man on the jury that the charge to the defendant was not conclusively proved to convict him.4.Pre-class Questions• 1.

Paragraph 4
• I reach for the long, thin fingers that are lying on the chest. They are ice-cold, and I quickly move to the wrist and feel for the faint pulse. Mrs. Clark's eyes open somewhat as her head turns toward me slightly. I bend close to her and scarcely hear as she whispers, "Water". Taking a glass of water from the table, I put my finger over the end of the straw and allow a few drops of the cool moisture to slide into her mouth and ease her thirst. She makes no attempt to swallow; there is just not enough strength. "More," the dry voice says, and we repeat the procedure. This time she does manage to swallow some liquid and weakly says, "Thank, you."

Do you want a better life? According to the author of the following article, the solution is easy. Simply change the way you look at yourself - and you will change the way you live. Improving your self-image is your key to living a better life.Your Key to a Better Lifeby Maxwell Maltz The most important psychological of this century is the discovery of the "self-image." Whether we realize it or not, each of us carries about with us a mental blueprint or picture of ourselves. It may be vague and ill-defined to our conscious gaze. In fact, it may not be consciously recognizable at all. But it is there, complete down to the last detail. This self-image is our own conception of the "sort of person I am." It has been built up from our own beliefs about ourselves. But most of these beliefs about ourselves have unconsciously been formed our past experiences, our successes and failures, our humiliations, our triumphs, and the way other people have reacted to us, especially in early childhood. From all these we mentally construct a "self," （or a picture of a self）. Once an idea or a belief about ourselves goes into this picture it becomes "true", as far as we personally are concerned. We do not question its validity, but proceed to act upon it just as if it were true. This self-image becomes a golden key to living a better life because of two important discoveries: 1. All your actions, feelings, behavior —— even your abilities —— are always consistent with this self-image. In short, you will "act like" the sort of person you conceive yourself to be. Not only this, but you literally cannot act otherwise, in spite of all your conscious efforts or will power. The man who conceives himself to be a "failure type person" will find some way to fail, in spite of all his good intentions, or his will power, even if opportunity is literally dumped in his lap. The person who conceives himself to be a victim of injustice, one "who was meant to suffer" will invariably find circumstances to verify his opinions. The self-image is a "premise," a base, or a foundation upon which your entire personality, your behavior, and even your circumstances are built. Because of this our experiences seem to verify, and thereby strengthen our self-images, and a vicious or a beneficent cycle, as the case may be, is set up. For example, a schoolboy who sees himself as an "F" type student, or one who is "dumb in mathematics," will invariably find that his report card bears him out. He then has "proof". A young girl who has an image of herself as the sort of person nobody likes, will find indeed that she is avoided at the school dance. She literally invites rejection. Her woebegone expression, her hang-dog manner, her over-anxiousness to please, or perhaps her unconscious hostility towards those she anticipates will affront her - all act to drive away those whom she would attract. In the same manner, a salesman or a businessman will also find that his actual experiences tend to "prove" his self-image is correct. Because of this objective "proof" it very seldom occurs to a person that his trouble lies in his self-image or his own evaluation of himself. Tell the schoolboy that he only "thinks" he cannot master algebra, and he will doubt your sanity. He has tried and tried, and still his report card tells the story. Tell the salesman that it is only an idea that he cannot earn more than a certain figure, and he can prove you wrong by his order book. He knows only too well how hard he has tried and failed. Yet, as we shall see later, almost miraculous changes have occurred both in grades of students, and in the earning capacity of salesmen - when they were prevailed upon to change their self-images. 2. The self-image can be changed. Numerous case histories have shown that one is never too young nor too old to change his self-image and thereby start to live a new life. One of the reasons it has seemed so difficult for a person to change his habits, his personality, or his way of life, has been that heretofore nearly all efforts at change have been directed to the circumference of the self, so to speak, rather than to the center. Numerous patients have said to me something like the following: "If you are talking about 'positive thinking', I've tried that before, and it just doesn't work for me." However, a little questioning invariably brings out that these individuals have employed "positive thinking," or attempted to employ it, either upon particular external circumstances, or upon some particular habit or character defect （"I will get that job." " I will be more calm and relaxed in the future." "This business venture will turn out right for me," etc.） But they had never thought to change their thinking of the "self" which was to accomplish these things. Jesus warned us about the folly of putting a patch of new material upon an old garment, or of putting new wine into old bottles. "Positive thinking" cannot be used effectively as a patch or a crutch to the same old self-image. In fact, it is literally impossible to really think positively about a particular situation, as long as you hold a negative concept of self. And, numerous experiments have shown that once the concept of self is changed, other things consistent with the new concept of self, are accomplished easily and without strain. One of the earliest and most convincing experiments along this line was conducted by the late Prescott Lecky, one of the pioneers in self-image psychology. Lecky conceived of the personality as a "system of ideas", all of which must seem to beconsistent with each other. Ideas which are inconsistent with the system are rejected, "not believed," and not acted upon. Ideas which seem to be consistent with the system are accepted. At the very center of this system of ideas —— the keystone —— the base upon which all else is built, is the individual's "ego ideal," his "self-image," or his conception of himself. Lecky was a school teacher and had an opportunity to test his theory upon thousands of students. Lecky theorized that if a student had trouble learning a certain subject, it could be because （from the student's point of view） it would be inconsistent for him to learn it. Lecky believed, however, that if you could change the student's self-conception, which underlies this viewpoint, his attitude toward the subject would change accordingly. If the student could be induced to change his selfdefinition, his learning ability should also change. This proved to be the case. One student who misspelled 55 words out of a hundred and flunked so many subjects that he lost credit for a year, made a general average of 91 the next year and became one of the best spellers in school. A boy who was dropped from one college because of poor grades, entered Columbia and became a straight "A" student. A girl who had flunked Latin four times, after three talks with the school counselor, finished with a grade of 84. A boy who was told by a testing bureau that he had no aptitude for English, won honorable mention the next year for a literary prize. The trouble with these students was not that they were dumb, or lacking in basic aptitudes. The trouble was an inadequate self-image （"I don't have a mathematical mind"; "I'm just naturally a poor speller"）. They "identified" with their mistakes and failures. Instead of saying "I failed that test" （factual and descriptive） they concluded "I am a failure." Instead of saying "I flunked that subject" they said "I am a failure." Instead of saying "I flunked that subject" they said "I am a flunk-out." For those who are interested in leaning more of Lecky's work, I recommend securing a copy of his book: self consistency, a Theory of Personality. The Island Press, Now York, N.Y.
