Passage 3: Read the passages carefully, then choose the best option
Greetings in all languages have the same purpose: to establish contact with another person, to recognize his or her
existence and to show friendliness. The formulas for greeting are very specific and usually do not carry any literal
meaning people say “ Good morning “even if it is a miserable day and may reply to “How are you?” with “Fine,
thanks” even if they aren’t feeling well.
Closings, like greetings are commonly used to exchange with no literal meaning. People who are leaving each other
permanently or for a long time shake hands or embrace, depending on the relationship. If you are in an unfamiliar
situation and wonder what to do, watch other people or ask.

Traditions, saying, beliefs, language, and values are just a few things that make up our culture. Culture is the
framework in which families are structured. It shapes our expectations and ideals. Culture plays a part in the
meaning of marriage and our roles as husbands, wives, children and parents.
Understanding cultural differences and similarities related to marriage is important. Culture affects the roles that
spouses take within marriages, the age at marriage and number of children a couple have, the meaning of divorce,
cohabitation and non-marital childbearing, and the way parents raise children. Understanding how relationships
and marriages vary across cultural contexts, and how they are similar, we will be able to identify the unique ways
that marriages and family life affect people of various cultures. As a result, we will be able to help families and
sustain happy marriages.
A cross cultural marriage or similar love relationship can be extremely exciting. The cultural background, visits to the
other country, the language of the country and learning to speak it, the different habits and ways of doing and


saying things that people from other cultures have, are all very exciting indeed. What are the disadvantages of a
cross cultural marriage or love relationship with someone from another country or cultural background? No matter
how much you love your husband or wife, no matter how high your level of cross cultural awareness, cross cultural
communication and respect for differences, misunderstanding seems to be unavoidable.

Body postures and movements are frequently indicators of self-confidence, energy, fatigue, or status. Cognitively,
gestures operate to clarify, contradict, or replace verbal messages. Gestures also serve an important function with
regard to regulating the flow of conversation. For example, if a student is talking about something in front of the
class, single nods of the head from the teacher will likely cause that student to continue and perhaps more
elaborate. Postures as well as gestures are used to indicate attitudes, status, affective moods, approval, deception,
warmth, arid other variables related to conversation interaction.
The saying “A picture is worth a thousand words” well describes the meaning of facial expressions. Facial
appearance – including wrinkles, muscle tone, skin coloration, and eye color-offers enduring cues that reveille
information about age, sex, race, ethnic origin, and status.
A less permanent second set of facial cues-including length of hair, hairstyle, cleanliness, and facial hair-relate to an

individual’s idea of beauty. A third group of facial markers are momentary expressions that signal that cause
changes in the forehead, eyebrows, eyelids, cheeks, nose, lips, and chin, such as raising the eyebrows, wrinkling the
brow, curling the lip.


Some facial expressions are readily visible, while others are fleeting. Both types can positively or negatively
reinforce the spoken words and convey cues concerning emotions and attitudes.

Passage 5: Read the passages carefully, then choose the correct answer.
If you invite an American friend to join you to have dinner in a restaurant, phone the restaurant first to find out if
you need a reservation to avoid a long wait for table. To make a reservation, just give your name, the number of
people in your group, and the time you plan to arrive. When you invite someone to have dinner, you should be
prepared to pay the bill and reach for it when it arrives. However, if your companion insists on playing his or her
share, do not get into argument about it. Some people prefer to pay their own way so that they do not feel
indebted, and those feelings should be respected. In most American restaurants, the waiter or waitress’s tip is not
added to the bill. If the service was adequate, it is customary to leave a tip equal to about 15% of the bill. In
expensive restaurants, leave a bit more.

If you are invited to an American friend’s home for dinner, remember these general rules for polite behaviour. First
of all, arrive approximately on time but not early. Americans expect promptness. It will be all right to be 10 or 15
minutes late, but not 45 minutes late. When you are invited to someone’s home for meal, it is polite to bring a small
gift. Flowers and candy are always appropriate. If you have something attractive made in your country, your host or
hostess will certainly enjoy receiving that gift. What will you do if you are served some food that you cannot eat or
you do not like? Do not make a fuss about it. Simply eat what you can and hope that no one noticed it. Be sure
to compliment the cook on the food that you are enjoying. Do not leave immediately after dinner, but do not overstay your welcome, either. The next day, call or write a thank- you note to say how much you enjoyed the evening.

Passage 2: Read the passages carefully, then choose the correct answer.
When people plan to marry, they expect to find in their partner not only a lover but a friend also. They find a person
with whom they can share their opinions, their emotions, thoughts and fears. In marriage we are looking for a
partner who will be able to understand our values, our likes and dislikes.
If a man and a woman are born and raised in the same country, most likely they are familiar with the same songs,
movies, jokes, books and life in general. They basically have the same roots. In the case of a western man and
foreign woman family everything is more complicated and requires much more patience and understanding from
both spouses. On one hand each of the partners has an opportunity to learn a great deal about the other’s country,
culture, traditions and life styles which can be very interesting. On the other hand it can be very disappointing if
there is the inability to understand your partner’s excitements and frustrations. For example, you are watching the
television and suddenly you see a famous actor or singer, or other type of an artist whose name you have grown up
with. Maybe this artist was an idol for your parents and the music of this artist was often played in your house when
you were a child. Unfortunately you realize that your wife is unable to understand your feelings because she has no
idea who this artist is. Her eyes are absolutely empty because she has never even heard the song before. You feel
rather disappointed! Remember that your wife has the same situation with you. You do not know her country’s
songs, her country’s famous actors, her books. She has her own memories and in actuality, for her, everything is
much more difficult than it is for you. At least, you live in your own country where everybody can understand you.
She lives in completely strange surroundings, where she has nobody to share her feelings with, except you.
Do some research and learn about your wife’s country, culture and lifestyles. Talk with her, ask her questions, get to
know what songs she likes, what movies and books are of interest to her. The Internet will give you a great
opportunity to find anything! Tell her about your country’s culture, let her listen to the music that you like, rent a
movie for her that left you with great impression. Let her understand you better through the things that you like.
Patience and time will help you to fight cultural differences.

Passage 2: Read the passages carefully, then choose the correct answer.
When people plan to marry, they expect to find in their partner not only a lover but a friend also. They find a person
with whom they can share their opinions, their emotions, thoughts and fears. In marriage we are looking for a
partner who will be able to understand our values, our likes and dislikes.
If a man and a woman are born and raised in the same country, most likely they are familiar with the same songs,
movies, jokes, books and life in general. They basically have the same roots. In the case of a western man and
foreign woman family everything is more complicated and requires much more patience and understanding from
both spouses. On one hand each of the partners has an opportunity to learn a great deal about the other’s country,
culture, traditions and life styles which can be very interesting. On the other hand it can be very disappointing if
there is the inability to understand your partner’s excitements and frustrations. For example, you are watching the
television and suddenly you see a famous actor or singer, or other type of an artist whose name you have grown up

songs, her country’s famous actors, her books. She has her own memories and in actuality, for her, everything is

much more difficult than it is for you. At least, you live in your own country where everybody can understand you.
She lives in completely strange surroundings, where she has nobody to share her feelings with, except you.
Do some research and learn about your wife’s country, culture and lifestyles. Talk with her, ask her questions, get to
know what songs she likes, what movies and books are of interest to her. The Internet will give you a great
opportunity to find anything! Tell her about your country’s culture, let her listen to the music that you like, rent a
movie for her that left you with great impression. Let her understand you better through the things that you like.
Patience and time will help you to fight cultural differences.

Passage 3: Read the passages carefully, then choose the best option
Greetings in all languages have the same purpose: to establish contact with another person, to recognize his or her
existence and to show friendliness. The formulas for greeting are very specific and usually do not carry any literal
meaning people say “ Good morning “even if it is a miserable day and may reply to “How are you?” with “Fine,
thanks” even if they aren’t feeling well.
Closings, like greetings are commonly used to exchange with no literal meaning. People who are leaving each other
permanently or for a long time shake hands or embrace, depending on the relationship. If you are in an unfamiliar
situation and wonder what to do, watch other people or ask.
It is interesting, and sometimes very important to learn about the standards of courtesy in different cultural areas of
the world so that we can practice them well and avoid awkwardness in case we get a chance to visit a person or a
community of unfamiliar social customs.

If you invite an American friend to join you to have dinner in a restaurant, phone the restaurant first to find out if
you need a reservation to avoid a long wait for table. To make a reservation, just give your name, the number of
people in your group, and the time you plan to arrive. When you invite someone to have dinner, you should be
prepared to pay the bill and reach for it when it arrives. However, if your companion insists on playing his or her
share, do not get into argument about it. Some people prefer to pay their own way so that they do not feel
indebted, and those feelings should be respected. In most American restaurants, the waiter or waitress’s tip is not
added to the bill. If the service was adequate, it is customary to leave a tip equal to about 15% of the bill. In
expensive restaurants, leave a bit more.

Passage 2: Read the passages carefully, then choose the correct answer.
When people plan to marry, they expect to find in their partner not only a lover but a friend also. They find a person
with whom they can share their opinions, their emotions, thoughts and fears. In marriage we are looking for a
partner who will be able to understand our values, our likes and dislikes.
If a man and a woman are born and raised in the same country, most likely they are familiar with the same songs,
movies, jokes, books and life in general. They basically have the same roots. In the case of a western man and
foreign woman family everything is more complicated and requires much more patience and understanding from
both spouses. On one hand each of the partners has an opportunity to learn a great deal about the other’s country,

culture, traditions and life styles which can be very interesting. On the other hand it can be very disappointing if
there is the inability to understand your partner’s excitements and frustrations. For example, you are watching the
television and suddenly you see a famous actor or singer, or other type of an artist whose name you have grown up
with. Maybe this artist was an idol for your parents and the music of this artist was often played in your house when
you were a child. Unfortunately you realize that your wife is unable to understand your feelings because she has no
idea who this artist is. Her eyes are absolutely empty because she has never even heard the song before. You feel
rather disappointed! Remember that your wife has the same situation with you. You do not know her country’s

Passage 7: Read the passages carefully and choose the best option
Body postures and movements are frequently indicators of self-confidence, energy, fatigue, or status. Cognitively,
gestures operate to clarify, contradict, or replace verbal messages. Gestures also serve an important function with
regard to regulating the flow of conversation. For example, if a student is talking about something in front of the
class, single nods of the head from the teacher will likely cause that student to continue and perhaps more
elaborate. Postures as well as gestures are used to indicate attitudes, status, affective moods, approval, deception,
warmth, arid other variables related to conversation interaction.

The saying “A picture is worth a thousand words” well describes the meaning of facial expressions. Facial
appearance – including wrinkles, muscle tone, skin coloration, and eye color-offers enduring cues that reveille
information about age, sex, race, ethnic origin, and status.
A less permanent second set of facial cues-including length of hair, hairstyle, cleanliness, and facial hair-relate to an
individual’s idea of beauty. A third group of facial markers are momentary expressions that signal that cause
changes in the forehead, eyebrows, eyelids, cheeks, nose, lips, and chin, such as raising the eyebrows, wrinkling the
brow, curling the lip.
Some facial expressions are readily visible, while others are fleeting. Both types can positively or negatively
reinforce the spoken words and convey cues concerning emotions and attitudes.
A nod of the head from the teacher will likely ask his student to ………. what he is saying.
