8、and ill-mannered taxi drivers are hardly unknown in the US. Yet it is an observation made so frequently that it deserves comment.For a long period of time and in many parts of the country, a traveler was a welcome break in an otherwise dull existence. Dullness and loneliness were common problems of

The cruel realities of the frontier also shaped this tradition of hospitality. Someone traveling alone, if hungry, injured, or ill, often had n

As is true of any developed society, in America a complex set of cultural signals, assumptions and conventions affects all social interrelationships. And, of course, speaking a langu

14、age does not necessarily mean that someone understands social and cultural patterns. Visitors who fail to translate cultural meanings properly often draw wrong conclusions. For example, when an American uses the word, friend, the cultural implications of the word may be quite different from those it

15、 has in the visitors language and culture. It takes more than a brief encounter(邂逅) on a bus to distinguish between courteous convention and individual interest.
