Part 2 Speak on the following topic for about 2 minutes.
What do you know about American higher education? Comment on this topic.
ANS: American higher education is uniquely constructed to prepare students for the real world. It is a balance between individuality and modularity. Individuality and modularity are stressed in application and admission, college curriculum, GERs, credits, declaring majors, and school activities. The key to balancing individuality and modularity is helping students to strive in society. Most American colleges emphasize communication, leadership skills, adaptability, honesty and personal uniqueness which are the key factors for success in society. What society requires is what will be taught in American colleges. American college is not only an educational institution, but also an imitation of society.

My dream
I want to be a teacher when I listen to my teacher carefully. I think I can be a teacher when I grow up. I can help many students learn things well. I can play with my students, too. So we are good friends.   I want to be a doctor when I see many doctors save their patients. To be a doctor is really great. I think I can be a doctor when I grow up. Then I can help many people out of danger. I will be the happiest girl in the world.  .  I want to be a reporter when I watch TV every evening. We can get lots of important information from them. They make the world smaller and also make us happy. I would like to be a reporter when I grow up. And I can learn a lot about China and the other countries around the world. I can meet many superstars as well.   I have lots of dreams. I think my dreams can come true one day, because there’s an old saying “where there is a will, there is a way.”

作业（三）简短陈述
Choose one of the topics from the following list and give your opinions orally in class. Your tald should last for about 3 minutes. Your performance will be assessed by both your fellow students in groups and your tutor.
1. How do “good ”health habits differ in America and China? How do “ bad ”health habits differ in America and China? Do you exercise regularly?
Some good health habits in America are considered bad in Chinese standards. For instance, Americans like to take a shower in the morning. However, Chinese thinks that without cleansing your body before going to bed is bad for your hygiene. In china we share dishes when we eat (that's bad cause you can get many diseases from doing so ). Most of the people in north America takes one shower a day and seven days a weak ( On the other hand, both countries share the same opinion on exercises. Thus, I exercise regularly to keep fit.

2. How do Christmas celebrations differ from the Spring Festival celebrations in China? Which is your favorite holiday in China? Why?
Christmas celebrations are religious while Spring Festival is merely celebrating the Chinese New Year. But both holidays involve cheerful family get-togethers.
Speaking of the difference between Christmas and the Spring festival, the first thing pop up in my mind is the origin of those. Christmas is a celebration of baby Jesus but the Spring Festival came from a story about a monster. The second difference is that Americans usually buy a lot of presents and give them to family member at Christmas eve. However, Chinese put cash in red pockets to give to the kids in the family instead of presents. Although there are some other differences such as decorations, songs, etc, we all regard them as very important festivals to spend time with our families. My favorite holiday in China is Spring Festival. Since I am still a kid, I can receive red envelopes from my relatives. Moreover, during Spring Festival, there are delicious food and snacks everywhere.
3. What are the differences between the Chinese and Westerners in greeting people/addressing people? State them and give your reasons.
Chinese people usually say something about eating to greet people, such as "have you had your supper?" While Americans tend to greet people by caring their emotions, such as "how are your families?"

4.In Western countries is it common to make appointments to visit professionals such as doctor, dentists, barbers? Is it common to do so in China? Is it acceptable/ common to visit a friend/teacher without calling first?

It is very common to make appointments in western countries. But in China people rarely do that. Visiting friend's or teacher's without notice is very impolite in China too. It will create much inconvenient to the host.

5.What are the differences between Chinese colleges and American colleges?

Colleges are different from several aspects in different cultural backgrounds. When it come to compare Chinese colleges with American colleges, we can see the distinctions apparently.
Students in American Colleges are more free and more interested in social affairs than their Chinese peers. However，college students in China are tend to pay more attention to study and association activities.
In American colleges, students have much more freedom in choosing their majors while in China students have to decide their majors even before they take the college entrance exam. Also, the size of a class in America tend to be much smaller than in China. In American colleges, an average class size is around 50 students but in China it is about 100.

6.What is a typical Chinese guest/host like? What is a typical Western gust/host like? What are the common cultural mistakes the Chinese make at a Western dinner party?

A typical Chinese host likes his/her guests to finish all the food, usually telling them to "have more". On the other hand, a typical Western host will say "help yourself" to the guests, which gives the guests more freedom to choose their food or drinks.
I think the most common mistake a Chinese would make is making noisy while drinking soup. In China, making noise means the guest is enjoying the food. However, it is considered impoliteness in western dinner parties.

7. What difference in culture do you see at a Chinese dinner party and a Western dinner party?
A Chinese dinner party is loud and happy. People like to make a toast to each other and keep drinking during the party. A Western one is more quiet and people tend to talk to the person who sits next to himself/herself only.

8.What topics of conversation are suitable between the Chinese and Westerners? State them and give your reasons.

I think suitable topics include food, climate, education systems and travels. These topics are not only interesting but also inspiring. Both the Chinese and the western will learn differences in both culture and countries afterward.

9.What are the sensitive issues that we'd better not to touch on when we talk with Westerners? Why？
In my opinion, the sensitive issues include politics, religion, martial status and salaries. Because these topics are about personal privacy, it will be very impolite to mention them.合同管理制度
