Our Global Village
Science and technology has turned our world into a global village. The term—global village—was coined by Marshall Mcluhan. It is used to describe the shrinking of the world as a result of the mass media. Nowadays, the mass media is able to bright events from all corners of the globe into people’s homes. Communication technologies make it possible to connect with people in other countries on the telephone and Internet. Modern transportation systems also contribute to the creation of the global village. Now astronauts can circle around the globe in eighty minutes. The moon is already within our【C21】________of travel, and the addition of Mars is just a【C22】________of time. A visit to major cities such as New York, London and Tokyo【C23】________that movement of people from one country and【C24】________to another has become commonplace.
People everywhere are gaining【C25】________, and this is just the beginning. Out mobility places us in【C26】________with people from other cultures. And when we meet, we【C27】________to communicate. In fact, we must communicate. This communicative【C28】________is called intercultural communication. It occurs whenever a message【C29】________is a member of one culture and a message receiver is of【C30】________. We may find intercultural communication difficult.

Language is part of culture and plays an important role in it. Without language, culture would not be possible. One the other hand, language is influenced and shaped by culture; it reflects culture. In the broad sense, language is the symbolic representation of a people, and it comprises their historical backgrounds as well as their approach to life and their ways of living the thinking. It needs to be stressed here that language and culture interact, and that understanding of one requires understanding of the other. [br] 【C21】
