M: I’m Will Arditti, and (1) this week we’re going to talk about what students coming to study in the US can do to avoid culture shock in the classroom. We have invited Susan Iannuzzi. She’s an international consultant in English language teaching from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Hi, Susan. Welcome.
W: Thanks.
M: So tell me what you did about it.
W: Well, actually, one of the things that we did at the University of Pittsburgh was that we used the sports equivalence, which, you know, is not something we came up with. It’s the three conversational styles of, say, bowling, rugby and basketball. So, for example, (2) the bowling style. That would be considered something perhaps highly considerate, which means that people from those countries would use a style where they would take turns and they would hold back if they’re a junior person and allow the older person or the more senior person to speak first. And then when they are asked for their opinion they would jump in.
M: Just like you would take turns in a bowling game.
W: Exactly. You go and roll and I’ll wait for you, and now it’s my turn, and everybody knows that there are going to be turns.
M: So that’s the high-considerate model.
W: Yes. Then there’s the rugby style, which might be the other end. And this is high-involvement. (3) And in this style you’re expected to interrupt other people and the other people are fine with that— they expect to be interrupted. So there’s a sort of rapid changing of topics, changing of speakers and overlapping of speeches. (4) This is a style that’s common in southern Europe, in African cultures, in cultures of Latin America, many voices happening at one time. It’s also a style in Russia and Greece.
M: And then the basketball model?
W: (5) Well, the basketball model is a little bit closer to what we have here. So think about it as if you’re playing basketball. You’re carrying out the conversation. You’re just going along. And when you hesitate, other people see that as an opportunity to jump in and steal the ball, to steal the conversation away. Not in a bad way, just as "Oh, it’s my turn now. "
This is the end of Part One of the interview. Questions 1 to 5 are based on what you have just heard.
1. What is the interview mainly about?
2. In what kind of conversation style do people take turns to give opinions?
3. What are you likely to do when you are engaged in a rugby-style conversation?
4. Which of the following does NOT often use the rugby style of conversation?
5. According to Susan Iannuzzi, what may be the conversation style in the US?
选项
A、Take turns to speak.
B、Interrupt other people.
C、Remain silent unless spoken to.
D、Get offended when interrupted.
答案
B
解析
根据句(3)可知,在橄榄球式的讨论风格中,一个人会打断他人的谈话是预料之中的事,而他人也不会介意,他们预料到自己的话会被打断,话题和说话人转换迅速,谈话会发生交叉,因此答案为[B]。
