讨论-Language and Culture

1. Can you list several English words that have a positive connotative meaning in English language but a negative connotative meaning in Chinese language?

2. Can you tell what are the dominant Chinese communication styles? Why?

3. Case study: read the following case and answer the questions

Mr. Benton, who is from the US, has traveled to China to introduce Mr. Yeh-Ching, a Chinese engineer, to a new operating system. Mr. Benton and Mr. Yeh-Ching are meeting at a local restaurant in Beijing.

Mr. Benton: Ah, Mr. Yeh-Ching. I’ve been waiting a while. Had you forgotten about our meeting?

Mr. Yeh-Ching: Good morning, Jerry. It is so nice to see you.

Mr. Benton: Well … I’m glad you’re finally here. I have all the material you need to see about the new computers we’re installing. Here’s our plan …

Mr. Yeh-Ching: Jerry, have you seen much of our city?

Mr. Benton: Well … I really don’t have much time for sightseeing. This isn’t a vacation, you know. My boss expects me to close this deal today and be back in New York by the weekend.

So here’s my idea for installation …

Mr. Yeh-Ching: Our city is so beautiful and full of history. Please allow me to arrange a tour for you. We can go together.

Mr. Benton: I’d love to, but you know … business is business.

Mr. Yeh-Ching: Can I arrange a tour for you? My staff would be delighted to get to meet you.

Mr. Benton: No, thanks, but I’d like to show you something. Look at these new configurations for the computers we’re installing. Now … notice that—

Mr. Yeh-Ching: Here is a menu. This restaurant has some very interesting Chinese dishes that I would like for you to try.

Mr. Benton: Oh, I grabbed a bite to eat at the Hilton. Go ahead and eat, though. I can show you the production schedule.

Questions:

1. Is it likely that Mr. Yeh-Ching will buy Mr. Benton’s new computer system? Why?

2. What do you think has caused the clashes between Mr. Yeh-Ching and Mr. Benton?
