Professor: Good morning.1'm sure everyone did the homework reading, S0 1
Want to begin today's class on intercultural communication. My first
question is "叉入rhy do we need to study intercultural c0111munication?"
Would anyone like to answer?
Student l: Yes,1'11try to answer that. people may think the way they do
things or the way they view the world is "natural" and "correct."
When they encounter someone doing things differently, they regard
it as "strange" or "wrong." Having an awareness of intercultural

these days because people travel overseas for many reasons, such as
Work, study, or vacations. The opportunities to meet people from

there are more chances for trouble between people from different

Some ways of living are considered to be more correct than others
there were many more cases of lntercultural comlnunication in the past
We can cope with cultural misunderstandings more eaSⅡy and slnoothly
Professor: Let's move on to the concept of "culture." You should know that
because culture is a11 around us a11 the time, it is di丘icult to define.
Therefore, we tend to discuss culture in terms of characteristics.
Can anyone give an example of a cultural characteristic?
16
(2110-16)
Student 2: The characteristic l found interesting is that people belonging to a
Cult山'e have the same values, beliefs, and behaviors. values are
things that are felt to be of worth,Ⅱke the Japanese concept of
"mottainai." Beliefs are things that people believe to be true, and
these cover a wide variety of areas. For example, people in a culture
might share beliefs about the kinds of foods that are unacceptable.
Behavior is about people's actions, and people in the same cuHure

Student 3: can l ask a question?
Professor: ofcourse.
Student 3: what about people who always seeln to be d廿ferent from those

friends. SO, if we need to have the same behavior for
group
memba'ship, does that mean those who are not the same aren't
members of their cultura1 即'OUP?
Professor: That's a good question. To answer it we need to think in tenns of
Cultural nonns rather than individual examples.
Student 3:气入rhat is a culturalnonn?
Professor: we11, a cultural norm is a rule or standard of behavior shared by
members of a cultural group.

Student 3: Then what happens to the people who do not f0ⅡOw the cultural

Professor: we11, they may belong to a smaⅡer group, or a sub・cultural group,
but that group is stiⅡ Considered to be part of the culture. This is
true as long as their actions are within the acceptable limits of
behavior for that particular culture.
Student 3:

The us domestic market receives orange imports from various countries
and regions. Among the major suppliers, Mexico is a longtime s0山'ce.
However, due to the strong us de111and for h'esh oranges throughout the year,
the southern Hemlsphere countries have also become major supPⅡers,
especiaⅡy during the summer months when domestic navel oranges are not
available. Australia was the first such country, starting in the early 1990S
after it obtained permission from the us govermnent to export its navel
Oranges
there. Australia was f0ⅡOwed by south Africa in the late 1990S, and
most recently by chile as weⅡ.
In the us, two main types of oranges are produced dolnesticaⅡy:"navel
Oranges" and "valencia oranges." Navel oranges-virtuaⅡy without seeds,
With aesh that separates easily and is finn rather than watery - are the lnost
Popular oranges for eating fresh. The navel orange share of us production of
fresh・market oranges waS 76 Percent during the yearS 2010-2012. 1n
Comparison, valencia oranges-with thin sMns, containing occasional seeds,
and with juicy and sweet flesh-accounted for 24 Percent during the same
Period. As the us's top supplier of fresh・market oranges, california produced
87 Percent of fresh・market navel oranges and more than 81 Percent of fresh・
market valencia oranges.
The main haNest period for domestic fresh・market oranges is froln
November through May, a time when california's navel oranges
are ln season.
However, the amount of oranges produced and shipped domesticaⅡy fa11S
Significantly fr01η June through october.1n earlier years, when fresh・orange
imports sti11 accounted for only a sma11 Portion of domestic use, valencia
Oranges were a popular variety when navel oranges were out of season. AS

"No one thought l would amount to much," uncle John said, as he stood in
the kitchen, showing me how he put together an award・winning four・course
dinner.1 had just graduated from university, and this dinner was his gift to
me.1t felt great to have a weⅡ・hlown chef cooking for lne. on top of this,1
Was excited because in a few days he was going to compete in rhe Big'・ri斧le
CO0え ojy', a nationwide Tv cooking contest.
叉配hen uncle John was young, his family lived in the countryside. His
mother taught at a local scho01, but when John was lo, she had to quit to take
Care of her elderly mother. untilthen, his father had been Mnd and had had
enough time to play with John and his two younger sista'S. But as bi11S kept
Piling up, the family got into trouble. John's father fina11y had to take a job in
a city far away, so he could only come home on the weekends.
Gradua11y, because of his busy work schedule, John's father began looking
tired whenever he came home. To teⅡ the truth, he had changed from being
good・h山nored to being in a bad mood a11the time. when he was home, he just
Wanted to rest. He often scolded John for smaⅡ things. wanting to be
accepted by his father, John tried to do his best but never felt he was good
enough. EventuaⅡy, he started avoiding his father. He began hanging out at
the shopping ma11With friends, sometimes skipping his classes. Little by little
John's grades got worse. His parents and teachers were worried about his
future.
One sunday morning, while John's mom was out taMng care of her own
mother, his father was napping in the Tv room. John's sisters were hungry, SO
John started to cook something for them. He was not sure how to cook, but he
did not want to bother his father.
Suddenly, the kitchen door opened, and his father was standing
26
there.
(2110-26)
"Dad,1'm sorry if l woke you up. chelsea and Jessica are hungry, and l was
trying to cook them some eggs." His dad looked at him seriously for a
m0111ent."Eggs? Eggs m'en't good for lunch on a beautiful sunday like today.
Let's griⅡ Some steaks in the backyard.""Are you sure? You must be tired."
"1t'S OK.1 Ⅱke cooking.1t reminds me of my c0Ⅱege days when l worked
Part・time as a cook.1'11 Show you how to prepare delicious steaks."
TO John's surprise, his father became energetic when he started cooking.
He took John aside and explained to him in detailthat cooklng was, in a way,
Iike a science project."You need to measure the ingredientS 則'ecisely and
know which items go together.1f you master this, you can provide pleasure
for a great many people." John felt close to his father for the first time in a
10ng time. From then on, John spent more time at home. He started cooking
for his family regularly, and then later for his friends at c0Ⅱege. John always
felt happy when he cooked, and this happiness spi11ed over into other areas of
his life.
Uncle John wm'ked his way through c0Ⅱege with jobs in restaurants, and
eventua11y he became a chef at a famous restaurant. He reaⅡy liked the job
and worked hard developing his own specialtechniques. He was finaⅡy able to
Open his own restaurant seNing his unique style of food. He won several
awards and cooked for the rich and famous.
This brings us back to the contest. uncle John and l were excited about
his being selected. Yet, he shared something rea11y touching with me tha'e in
the kitchen."You know, Mike," uncle John said,"1'm thriⅡed to be able to go
On Tv as part of rhe Big'・7i111ぞ CO0え ojy'. But what lnakes lne the happiest is
to stand here with you, one of the people l care about, and talk^just you and
me.1t's exactly like what my dad did for me one fine day in summer, so many

Opera is an art form that celebrates the human voice at its highest level
Of expression.
No other art form creates excitement and moves the heart in
the way that opera does, especia11y when performed by a great singer. such
Singers are trained to present some of the greatest and most cha11enging
music that has ever been composed for the human voice.
②
Opera is an important part of the 叉入7estern classica1111Usic tradition.1t
Uses music, words, and actions to bring a dramatic story to life. opera
Started in naly at the end of the 16th century and later became popular
throughout Europe. over the years, it has responded to various musical and
theatrical developments around the world and contlnues to do so.1n recent
decades, much wider audiences have been introduced to opera through
modern recording techn010gy. some singers have become celebrities thanks
to performing on radio, on television, and in the cinema.
③
However, in recent years, opera has been fadng serious chaⅡenges.
The causes of solne of these are beyond its contr01. one current chaⅡenge
to opera is economic. The current world economic slowdown has lneant that
Iess
money is available for culturalinstitutions and artists. This shortage of
nloney
raises the broader question of how much should be paid to support
Opera singers and other artists. society seems to accept the large salaries
Paid to business managers and the multi・mi11ion・d0Ⅱar contracts given to
Sports athletes. But what about opera singers? somehow, people have the
idea that artists can be creative only if they sU丘er in poverty, but this is
Unrealistic:1f artists, including opera singers,1ack the support they need,
Valuable talent is wasted.
④
Not only the shortage of money, but also the way money is managed in
the opera world has led to hardshゆS. principal singers are genera11y paid
Performance fees once they complete a show. They typicaⅡy receive nothing
30
(2HO-3の
during the many weeks of rehearsal before a show starts. To prepare for a
role, they must pay the costs of lessons and coaching sessions. H they
becolne i11 0r canceltheir perfonnance, they lose their perfonnance fee. The
insecurity of this system puts the future of opera at risk.
⑤
Another problaη faced by opera is how to meet the demands of
audiences who are influenced by popular entertainment. pop singers are
Often judged as much on the basis of how they look as how they sound.
Therefore, opera singers, performing to audiences influenced by this popular
Culture, are now expected to be " models who sing." These danands may be
Unrealistic and possibly harmful. opera singers simply cannot make a sound
big enough to fiⅡ a large theater or concert haⅡ Without a microphone 廿
their body weight is to010W. Emphasizing physical appearance over singing
ability may cause audiences to miss out on the human voice at its best.
⑥
There are no easy solutions to opera's problems and there are many
d廿ferent opinions about the value of opera. However, every year many
young people register for music courses with hopes and dreams of
developing their talents in this special art fonn. The fact that opera has
SⅢ'vived many obstacles and continues to attract the rising gena'ation
demonstrates that it relnains a respected art fonn fUⅡ of value.
