问题 Because so much of culture is learned implicitly, we may be unaware that certain "invisible" aspects of our culture exist: how long we can be late before being impolite, what topics we should avoid in conversation, or how we show attention through listening behavior. Differences in invisible culture can cause problems when we are unable to recognize behavioral differences as cultural rather than personal. Formal institutions— schools, hospitals, the legal system, and so on—are places where invisible cultural differences come together, and where we may misinterpret the behavior of others or misjudge their intentions. For example, when we see someone wearing exotic clothes and speaking a language other than ours, we do not assume that we understand that person or that he understands us. However, when someone is dressed like us and speaks our language, we may fail to recognize invisible cultural differences. If that person spoke "too loudly" or stood "too close" to us, we might interpret his behavior as rude rather than culturally different. [br] Which of the following is an example of invisible culture?
选项 A、Wearing exotic clothes at school
B、How long we wait to board an airplane
C、How we show that we are listening
D、Speaking a foreign language in a hospital
答案 C
解析 How we show that we are listening is an example of invisible culture. Clue: ...we may be unaware that certain "invisible " aspects of our culture exist: ... how we show attention through listening behavior.
