Living in a foreign culture can be exciting, but it can also be confusing (令人迷惑的). A group of Americans who taught English in other countries recently discussed their experiences. They decided that miscommunications (沟通误解) were always possible, even over something as simple as “yes” and “no”.
On her first day in Micronesia, an island in the Pacific (太平洋), Lisa thought people weren’t paying any attention to her. The day was hot. She went into a store and asked, “Do you have cold drinks?” The woman there didn’t say anything. Lisa repeated the question. Still the woman said nothing. She later learned that the woman had answered her: She had raised her eyebrows (眉毛), which in Micronesia means “yes”.
Jenny remembered an experience she had in Bulgaria, a country in Europe. She went to a restaurant that was famous for its cabbage. She asked the waiter, “Do you have cabbage today?” He nodded his head. Jan waited, but the cabbage never came. In that country, a nod means “no”.
Tom had a parallel problem when he arrived in India. After explaining something in class, he asked his students if they understood. They answered with many different nods and shakes of the head. He thought some people had not understood, so he explained again. When he asked again, they did the same thing. He soon found out that his students did understand. In India, people nod and shake their heads in different ways depending on where they come from. You have to know where a person is from to understand whether they mean “yes” or “no”.

A. should often have discussions about their experiences

Shanghai is the first city to carry out strict regulations (规章) on garbage sorting and recycling on July 1, 2019. Shanghai requires its people to divide garbage into four kinds, namely recyclable, harmful, dry and wet waste. If people fail to divide their garbage properly, they can be fined (罚款) up to 200 yuan.
Since the regulation worked, the amount of total daily waste in Shanghai has been reduced by an average of 15,500 tons, dropping 26 percent from the end of 2018, while the average (平均) daily weight of recyclables hits 4,500 tons, five times higher than the end of 2018. according to the Shanghai Landscaping and City Appearance Administrative Bureau.
The city also rebuilt 21,000 waste-sorting stations and more than 40,000 waste bins have been dated (更新). The city’s waste collection and transportation system is complete, according to the bureau.
“Proper waste sorting protects the environment and saves natural resources,” said Deng Jianping, director of the bureau. “Led by the central government, Shanghai is making efforts to develop long-term solutions to garbage management.”
However, there are also some problems. Some people complained that it is difficult to deal with wet garbage, because they are asked to remove wet garbage from its bag when dumping (倾倒).
According to the sorting rules, the wet garbage must go in the wet waste bin and the bag must go in the dry waste bin. This separation (分离) is necessary, as it makes sure that the wet garbage will decompose (分解) properly and become useful organic (有机的) waste, the bureau said.
