听力原文:Narrator Listen to part of a conversation between two students. Maggie Hey, Jim, what a coincidence to see you here! Long time no see! Jim Yeah, me too. Hey, just as old friends, I gotta tell you...you dont look that well. Are you sick or something? Maggie Well, not really. Seems really serious? Jim Um, not that bad. But...whats wrong? Maggie Guess what? Its the same old story of an overworked undergraduate student. I am up to my neck on one project. Jim How did you end up like this? Is the timeframe. limited or its near the deadline? Maggie Actually I am working on a project that has to be done by the end of this month. Jim Oh, thats it. Cant you speak to your professor about that? Maggie About what? The project or something else? Jim Of course the project. Maybe he would allow an extension and you will then have some breathing space. Maggie Fat chance. Youve never met him, right? Jim Exactly. What is he like? Maggie You know, my professor is one of those workaholic types and he expects everyone that works with him has to be the same way. You know, sometimes he sleeps four hours a night but can still keep going during the day. Jim Wow, sounds like your professor is really nuts. I dont mind working hard, but not to the point of killing myself. Hope you can get your project done without any hitches. Maggie What about you? I heard the faculty building is being constructed on campus. A big project it seems by the looks of things, and its nearly completed, I think. Jim Well, not quite there yet. They still have not decided whether they should move there or not. Maggie Whats the Department Deans opinion? Jim He wants me to mark papers and do some administration work for them. I have to make a decision by the end of this week. Maggie That is a tough decision, isnt it? I would jump on the offer if I had one. To work with some of these academic types must be interesting. Jim Sure it is. I would not think twice if I didnt have such a heavy load this semester. Besides, my girlfriend isnt keen on me always spending time at school. Maggie I can understand how she feels. Maybe you can ask for a light load. Perhaps you should request to work only on certain days. Jim Thats true. Then I wouldnt have to work under a workaholic professor any more. Maggie Hey, Jim.

听力原文:Narrator Listen to part of a talk in an anthropology class. Professor Culture shock can be an excellent lesson in relative values and in understanding human differences. But why does culture shock occur? Thats because were not prepared for these differences. Because of the way we are taught our culture, we are all ethnocentric. Ethnocentrism is the belief that ones own patterns of behavior. are best, to be specific, the most natural, beautiful, right or important. When we say one is ethnocentric, it means that his outlook or world view is centered on his own way of life, while, therefore, other people, to the extent that they live differently, live by standards that are inhuman, irrational, unnatural, or wrong. Theres no one in our society who is not ethnocentric to some degree, no matter how liberal and open-minded he or she might claim to be. People will always find some aspect of another culture distasteful, I mean...it may be others sexual practices, a way of treating friends or relatives, or...simply, a food that they cannot manage to get down with a smile. This is...I should say, not something we should be ashamed of, because it is a natural outcome of growing up in any society. However, as anthropologists who study other cultures, it is something we should constantly be aware of, so that when were tempted to make value judgments about another way of life, we can look at the situation objectively and take our bias into account. Ethnocentrism can be seen in many aspects of culture—myths, folktales, proverbs, and even language. For example, in many languages, especially those of non-Western societies, the word used to refer to ones own tribe or ethnic group literally means "mankind" or "human". This implies that members of other groups are less than human. For example, the term Eskimo...is used to refer to groups that inhabit the arctic and sub-arctic regions. However, it is an Indian word used by neighbors of the Eskimos who observed their strange way of life but did not share it. The term means "eaters of raw flesh", as such is an ethnocentric observation about cultural practices that were normal to one group and repulsive to another. On the other hand, if we look at one subgroup among the Alaskan natives, we find them calling themselves Inuit, which means "real people" -they obviously didnt think eating raw flesh was anything out of the ordinary. Here, then, is a contrast between ones own group, which is real, and the rest of the world, which is not so "real". Both terms, Eskimo and Inuit, are equally ethnocentric—one as an observation about differences, the other as a self-evaluation. However, Inuit is now seen as a more appropriate term because of its origin. Now, shifting from language to myths and folktales, we find a good example of ethnocentrism in the creation myth of the Cherokee Indians. According to this story, the Creator made three clay images of a man and baked them in an oven. In his haste to admire his handwork, he took the first image out of the oven before it was fully baked and found that it was too pale. He waited a while and then removed the second image—it was just right, a full reddish brown hue. He was so pleased with his work that he sat there and admired it, completely forgetting about the third image. Finally he smelled it burning, but by the time he could rescue it from the oven it had already been burnt, and it came out completely black! OK, lets see food preferences. Food preferences are perhaps the most familiar aspect of ethnocentrism. Every culture has developed preferences for certain kinds of food and drink, and equally strong negative attitudes toward others. Now, can anyone of you give us an example? Student A As far as I know, in Southeast Asia, the majority of adults do not drink milk, and in China, dog meat is a delicacy. Professor Well, what if in American culture? Student B Of course, to many Americans, its inconceivable that people in other parts of the world do not drink milk, and eating a dog is enough to make most Americans feel sick. Professor Thats it. Certain food preferences also seem natural to us. We usually do not recognize that theyre natural only because we have grown up with them; theyre quite likely to be unnatural to someone from a different culture. And it is interesting to note that much of ethnocentrism is in our heads and not in our tongues, for something can taste delicious until we are told what it is. Now get ready to answer the questions. You may use your notes to help you answer. 24. What is the talk mainly about? 25. According to the professor, what does an ethnocentric person tend to believe? Listen again to part of the lecture. Then answer the question. Professor Both terms, Eskimo and Inuit, are equally ethnocentric—one as an observation about differences, the other as a self-evaluation. However, Inuit is now seen as a more appropriate term because of its origin. 26. Why does the professor say that the term Inuit is more appropriate than Eskimo? 27. According to the Cherokee Indians, who was first created by the Creator? 28. According to the talk, which of the following are true about food preferences? Listen again to part of the lecture. Then answer the question. Professor However, as anthropologists who study other cultures, it is something we should constantly be aware of, so that when were tempted to make value judgments about another way of life, we can look at the situation objectively and take our bias into account. 29.
