举一反三
When Chinese student Du Juan brought her American boyfriend home two years ago to use the toilet, her Japanese roommate became so upset that she shouted in English: "I hate you."
Du, then 21 and an undergraduate at Bridgewater State College in Massachusetts, was shocked. So was her boyfriend.
"Later I realized that she didn"t literally mean what she said and that she was not aware of the full meaning of the word "hate" in English," said Du. "It was more a problem with translation," she added.
Cultural differences can cause confusion about what words or even actions mean, an issue that has come to the forefront recently following the arrest of a Chinese doctoral degree student in New Jersey.
Zhai Tiantian, who studied at the Stevens Institute of Technology, has been accused of trying to set fire to a campus building and of making threats to a professor who gave him a low mark. No physical altercation took place but Zhai reportedly said something along the lines of "at worst, I will risk anything on the line." The professor called the campus police.
According to the indictment sheet(起诉书), Zhai is facing the serious charge of making a terroristic threat.
For a few days, Chinese media mistranslated, or misunderstood, the charges and reported that Zhai was being charged with terrorism.
Some language experts have speculated(推测) that the disagreement between Zhai and the professor can also be chalked up to cultural and linguistic differences. "What Chinese people regard as acceptable speech may be regarded by Americans as threats," said Luo Gang, the Chinese Consulate"s Overseas Chinese Affairs consul. "This is an unfortunate incident. Even though Zhai intended no harm, he has done himself a great deal of harm."
Du, now 23, said she supports Zhai"s actions in fighting to save his academic career, but added he needs to learn more about communication in a foreign language.
"Chinese students in a foreign country must prepare more in terms of languages and conversation skills to avoid misunderstandings," she said.
小题1:What does the underlined word “altercation” mean?
A.fightB.checkC.educationD.experiment
小题2:By saying “It was more a problem with translation”, what does Du Juan mean?
A.Translation was not the real problem, as Du Juan and her roommate can both speak English.
B.Du Juan can not understand what her roommate meant at all.
C.Her roommate didn’t know what “hate” really meant in daily conservation.
D.Her roommate spoke such poor English that she felt angry.
小题3:Which of the following statements about Zhai Tiantian is true?
A.He set fire to a campus building.
B.He argued with a professor because he received a low mark.
C.He has received a doctor’s degree at the Stevens Institute of Technology.
D.He is facing a serious charge because he murdered the professor.
小题4:What is the main idea of the passage?
A.Du Juan’s unpleasant experience abroad.
B.Confusion caused by translation.
C.Conservational skills in a foreign country.
D.Cultural differences between China and America.

Do you like sitting on the edge of your seat? How about falling off it laughing? If so, "Rush Hour 1" is the perfect movie for you. Although it didn’t get the best reviews, it is perfect for those who like a good comedy.

Just as in the first "Rush Hour," Inspector Lee (Jackie Chan) and LAPD Detective James Carter (Chris Tucker) are partners. This time, they are on vacation in China and Carter is looking for a good time, but they are on the job again when a bombing at the American Embassy kills two customs agents. Lee and Carter go to look for a suspect named Ricky Tan. For Lee this is a serious case because Tan killed his father. Will Carter and Lee be able to capture Tan?
Another reason to see this movie perhaps is for the thrilling action, which includes karate fights with Jackie Chan. One of my favorite scenes shows Carter and Lee in a massage parlor (店堂) when everything goes crazy.
"Rush Hour 2" is, of course, really funny with Chris Tucker in the lead role. Chan and Tucker have many clever jokes and remarks. Some of the jokes aren’t enjoyed by the critics, but most will find them entertaining.
With no doubt, the movie was great. I was filled with anxiety about what was going to happen next. Many critics say that sequels (续集) are not as good as the original but this one is great. I especially enjoyed it because the special effects are minimal so everything looks as though it actually happened. The lighting effect is great as well as the sound.
So, if you are looking for a great action movie that leaves you at the edge of your seat and makes you laugh quite a bit, you should rush to see “Rush Hour 2.”
小题1:According to the author, "Rush Hour 2" is a perfect movie particularly ______.
A.full of special effects
B.with the best actors
C.full of humors
D.with great lights
小题2:In "Rush Hour 2”, the two leading roles are on duty again because ______.
A.their vocation in China is limited to a short term
B.inspector Lee doesn’t want to have a good time
C.the American Embassy in China was attacked
D.a suspect named Ricky Tan killed Lee’s father
小题3:In Rush Hour series, the following are usually included EXCEPT _____.
A.thrilling actionsB.maximal special effects
C.karate fightsD.clever jokes and remarks
小题4:If "Rush Hour 3" is shot, what kind of the movie will it be? ______.
A.Stage tragedyB.Action movie
C.Soap operaD.Situational comedy
