Passage three
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.
Let’s look at another example of how people’s communication patterns differ:the way people conserve.Some foreigners have observed that when
Americans carry on a conversation,it seems as if they are having a Ping-Pong game.One person has the ball and then hits it to the other side
of the table.The other player hits the ball back and the game continues.
If one person doesn’t return the ball,then the conversation stops.Each part of the conversation follows this pattern:the greeting and the
opening,the discussion of a topic,and the closing and farewell.If either person talks too much,the other may become impatient and feel that
he is dominating the conversation.Similarly,if one person doesn’t say enough or ask enough questions to keep the conversation going,the conversation stops.
Many North Americans are impatient with culturally different
conversation styles simply because the styles are unfamiliar.For example,
to many North Americans,it seems that some Latin Americans dominate
conversations,or hold the ball too long.Speaking of her co-workers from
several Latin American countries,one North Americans woman said,”I just
find it difficult to cut in.they seem to take such a long time to express
themselves.They give you a lot of unnecessary details.”when she talked
with them,she became tense,because she found it so hard to participate.
Yet she also noted that when they talked to each other,nobody seemed
uncomfortable or left out.
The North American woman didn’t know how to interrupt the Latin American
conversations because North American ways of listening and breaking in are
very different.She had been taught to listen politely until the other
person had finished talking.(once again,there are gender(性别)difference;
it has been observed that men tend to interrupt women more than women
interrupt men.)when the North American woman did what was“natural”or
“normal”for her(i.e.,listen politely without interrupting),she was not
comfortable in the conversation with the Latin Americans.The result was
that she became more passive in her conversations with her co-workers.The
differences between the unspoken rules of conversation of each cultural
group interfered with their on-the-job relationship.
