The Correct Answer to the Question

The usual answer to the greeting “How are you?” is generally “Not too bad.” Why? Because it’s all-purpose. Whatever the circumstances, whatever the conditions, “Not too bad” will get you through. On an average day it 【小题1】 a confusing modesty. In good times it implies a decent pessimism (悲观), a kind of 【小题2】 to express oneself. And when things are rough, really rough and annoying, it becomes a heroic 【小题3】, as if everything goes well. Best of all, it gently prevents further inquiry with all three syllables (音节) equally 【小题4】, because it is basically meaningless.

Americans are small-talk artists. They have to be. This is a wild country. The weakest agreement 【小题5】 one person to the next. So the “Have a nice day”, the “Hot enough for you”, and the “How about those guys” serve a vital purpose. Without these little commonly-used phrases and the 【小题6】 social contract that they represent, to calm people, the streets would be a free-for-all exhibition of disaster.

But that’s the negative view. Some of my happiest interactions with other human beings have been glancing moments of small talks. It’s an extraordinary thing. A person stands before you, a complete stranger, and the best everyday small talk can have his or her soul 【小题7】 in front of your eyes.

I was out walking the other day when a UPS truck pulled to the side of the road. As the driver leaped from his cab to make a 【小题8】, I heard relaxing music coming out of the truck’s speakers -- a kind of familiar and weightless blues music, and it’s my favorite tune. “China Cat Sunflower?” I said to the UPS guy as he rushed back to his truck. He 【小题9】 showed a huge smile, “You got it, babe!”

The exchange of feelings, the perfect understanding, the simplest small talk that emerged instantly between us, and, most of all, the 【小题10】 “babe”—I was high as a kite for the next 10 minutes after such a pure small talk.

Have you experienced culture shock? Culture shock refers to the anxiety【小题1】 when a person moves to an【小题2】 new environment. This term shows the lack of direction, the feeling of not knowing what to do or how to do things in a new environment, and not knowing which behavior is appropriate.


The feeling of culture shock can【小题3】 set in after the first few weeks of arriving in a new country. It is a【小题4】 part of adjusting to new food, customs, language, people and activities. A person with culture shock may【小题5】 to experience headaches or stomachaches, easily tired, loneliness, hopelessness, distrust of【小题6】, painful homesickness, insomnia, or a desire to sleep too much or too little. They are the 【小题7】 symptoms of culture shock.

Culture shock can be 【小题8】as the physical and emotional discomfort one suffers when living in another country or place different from his or her place of 【小题9】. Usually, the way we lived before is not 【小题10】or considered normal in the new country. Everything is a challenge, like not speaking the language or using telephones.

Learning the symptoms and knowing ahead of time of how to prepare yourself and how to deal with culture shock can make it a lot easier to overcome.

China is widely known for its ancient civilisation which has continued all the way through into modern times, 【小题1】the many ups and downs in its history. There are many reasons 【小题2】 this has been possible, but one of the main factors has been the Chinese writing system. 

At the beginning, written Chinese was a picture-based language. It 【小题3】 back several thousand years to the use of longgu—animal bones and shells on which symbols were 【小题4】 by ancient Chinese people. Some of the ancient symbols can still be seen in today’s hanzi. 

By the Shang Dynasty (around 1600-1046 BCE), these symbols had 【小题5】 a well-developed writing system. Over the years, the system developed into different forms, as it was a time【小题6】people were divided geographically leading to many【小题7】of dialects and characters. This, however, changed under Emperor Qinshihuang of the Qin Dynasty (221-207BCE). 

Emperor Qinshihuang united the seven 【小题8】states into one unified country where the Chinese writing system began to develop in one direction. That writing system was of great importance in uniting the Chinese people and culture. Even today, no【小题9】where Chinese people live or what dialect they speak, they can all still 【小题10】 in writing.
