After I was married and had lived in Japan for a while, my Japanese gradually improved to the point where I could take part in simple conversations with my husband, his friends and family. And I began to notice that often, when I joined in, the others would look startled and the conversation would come to a halt.【R1】______But for a long time, I didn’t know what it is. Finally, after listening carefully to many Japanese conversations, I discovered what my problem was. Even though I was speaking Japanese, I was handling the conversation in a Western way.
【R2】______And the difference isn’t only in the languages. I realized that just as I kept trying to hold western-style conversations even when I was speaking Japanese, so were my English students trying to hold Japanese-style conversations even when they were speaking English. We were unconsciously playing entirely different conversational ballgames.
【R3】______If I introduce a topic, a conversational ball, I expect you to hit it back. If you agree with me, I don’t expect you simply to agree and do nothing more. I expect you to add something — a reason for agreeing, another example, or a remark to carry the idea further.【R4】______I am just as happy if you question me, or challenge me, or completely disagree with me. Whether you agree or not, your response will return the ball to me.【R5】______I don’t serve a new ball from my original starting line. I hit your ball back again from where it has bounced. I carry your idea further, or answer your questions or objections, or challenge or question you. And so the ball goes back and forth.
【R6】______There is no waiting in line. Whoever is nearest and quickest hits the ball, and if you step back, someone else will hit it. No one stops the game to give you a turn. You are responsible for taking your own turn and no one person has the ball for very long.
A Japanese-style conversation, however, is not at all like tennis or volleyball.【R7】______You wait for your turn, and you always know your place in line. It depends on such things as whether you are older or younger, a close friend or a relative stranger to the previous speaker, in a senior or junior position, and so on.【R8】______When your moment comes, you step up to the starting line with your bowling ball, and carefully bowl it. Everyone else stands back, making sounds of polite encouragement.
A. If there are more than two people in the conversation, then it is like doubles in tennis, or like volleyball.
B. A western-style conversation between two people is like a game of tennis.
C. After this happened several times, it became clear to me that I was doing something wrong.
D. It is like bowling.
E. But I don’t expect you always to agree.
F. The first thing is to wait for your turn, patiently and politely.
G. And then it is my turn again.
H. Japanese-style conversations develop quite differently from western-style conversations.
【R8】
选项
答案
F
解析
日本的谈话取决于许多社会因素,既然把它比喻为保龄球赛,那么谈话过程也就像打保龄球一样,必须耐心礼貌地等待自己的机会。这也正是空格处所需要的内容。并且空格后也指出:“你的机会到来时,你就可以小心谨慎地把你的保龄球抛出去了。”本句前面需要一句话过渡到此句。选项F符合题意。
