26、辑关系,进行概括和归纳,从而选出正确答案。3阅读理解 As a Fulbright(富布莱特法案基金)scholar at Yale, I wanted very much to get some individual help from some famous professors, but their office-hours were only once a week and there were always students waiting outside. At first, I was too polite to get their help. Then I realized t
27、hat Chinese politeness does not work in this society. I needed to be aggressive to get what I wanted. I also noticed that Chinese students or Asian students were very polite in class while American students often interrupted the professor, asking questions and dominating the discussion. The Chinese
28、students were not as aggressive as American students. I was impressed by the role of the professor in the class. The professor didnt act as an authority, giving final conclusions, but as a researcher looking for answers to questions together with the students. One linguistic feature of his interacti
29、ng with his students was that he used many modal verbs-far more than I did in Beiwai. When answering questions, he usually said: this is my personal opinion and it could be wrong. It would be a good idea if you could read the book I mentioned the other day. Or, You may find the book I recommended he
30、lpful. Or, You could be right, but you might find this point of view also interesting. When making comments on students performances, the professor usually said: It might have been much clearer if you had taken in some of the ideas we discussed earlier this semester. In China, authorities are always
31、 supposed to give wise decisions and correct directions. Therefore students always expect the professor to give an answer to the question. I still remember how annoyed they were when foreign teachers did not provide such an answer. Their expectations from authorities are much higher than those of Am
32、erican students. Once the Chinese students got the answer, they were sure about it. That is why they make far more certain statement than American students. That is why Chinese students find it difficult to use modal verbs because the function of modal verbs is to provide room for negotiation and different ideas.
