This report is about how to be polite. It tells about how we can make 【小题1】(we)language more polite and how we can make sure we do not upset someone from another culture.

It has been found that words such as "would" and "could" can be used 【小题2】(help)us to be polite. For example,it is much 【小题3】(good)to say "Would you do this?" rather than "Do this!" It is also suggested 【小题4】 it should be useful to say "Please" and "Thank you". People from the West like to use these words in 【小题5】(situation)where some people in Asia may not think it necessary. 【小题6】(say)"Sorry" if we interrupt or disagree 【小题7】 someone also helps us to be polite. For example,when we disagree,we should say "I'm sorry,but I think you are mistaken(弄错的)." rather than "You're wrong!"

In 【小题8】(conclude), we need to know 【小题9】 custom of a country so that we do not make others embarrassed(尴尬的). It seems that if people learn something about other 【小题10】(culture)backgrounds before they visit new countries,they will be less likely to upset others.

Different Cultures

The cultures of the East and the West really distinguish themselves from each other a lot. 【小题1】.

The origin of the Eastern culture is mainly from two countries:China and India. Both of the two cultures are developed by rivers — the Yellow River in China and the Indus River in India. 【小题2】

When the two mother rivers gave birth to the Eastern culture,another famous culture was brought up on the Mesopotamian plain(美索不达米亚平原)一the Mesopotamian Civilization. This civilization later on developed into the cultures of Ancient Rome and Ancient Greek.【小题3】 Like the Chinese culture,the European culture also crossed waters. When the British settled down in America,their culture went with them over the Atlantic Ocean. So the American culture doesn't distinguish itself from the European culture a lot.

【小题4】 Take the language system for example. In the East,most languages belong to the pictographic language while the Western languages are mostly based on the Latin system. Other causes like human race differences count as well. But what's more,due to the far distance and the steep areas between the East and the West,the two cultures seldom communicate until recent centuries. So they grew up totally in their own ways with almost no interference(干预)from the other.

The differences are everywhere. 【小题5】 But different cultures make the world in the 21st century more varied. The cultural gap should not be the obstacle to the civilization of human beings. It ought to be the motivation for our going farther.

A.Let us work together to keep a variety of cultures.
B.One important thing is to learn about the other's culture.
C.And these two are well-known as the base of the European culture.
D.This is because the culture systems are two separate systems on the whole.
E.They helped the two cultures develop for centuries and form their own styles.
F.They are obvious and affect people's ways of thinking and their views of the world.
G.At the same time,some other differences add to the cultural differences.

What is American Sign Language?

American Sign Language (ASL)is a complete, complex language that employs signs made by moving the hands combined with facial expressions and postures of the body. 【小题1】 It is also one of several communication options used by people who are  deaf or hard of hearing.

Is sign language the same in other countries?

No one form of sign language is universal. 【小题2】 For example, British Sign Language(BSL)is a different language from ASL, and Americans who know ASL may not understand BSL.

【小题3】

The exact beginnings of ASL are not clear, but some suggest that it arose more than 200 years ago from the intermixing of local sign languages and French Sign Language (LSF). Today's ASL includes some parts of LSF plus the original local sign languages , which over the years have combined and changed into a rich,complex, and mature language. Modern ASL and modern LSF are distinct languages. 【小题4】

How does ASL compare with spoken language?

【小题5】 But for people who are deaf (particularly those who are profoundly deaf), the sounds of speech are often not heard, and only some speech sounds can be seen on the lips. Sign languages are based on the idea that vision is the most useful tool a deaf person has to communicate and receive information.

A.Where did ASL come from?
B.How do most children learn ASL?
C.Different sign languages are used in different countries or regions.
D.It is the primary language of many North Americans who are deaf.
E.In spoken language, words are produced by using the mouth and voice to make sounds.
F.Parents should introduce a child who is deaf or hard of hearing to language as soon as possible.
G.While they still contain some similar signs, they can no longer be understood by each other’s users.
