课时作业(六)
Ⅰ 阅读
(2024·江西省南昌市第十中学高二上月考)While you are studying or working abroad, sharing an apartment with people from other cultures is a great way of getting the most out of a period of the beginning. This is a situation to which it will take some time to adapt. Here are some tips to make the process go smoother.
Start by being aware of your own culture, values and attitudes. Understand that people who have not grown up in the same country or context as you can sometimes translate some of your behavior in the wrong way. To avoid this, seek advice from your friends and family to find out more about what type of person you are and what you might come across when it comes to people who don't know you. You might also consider conducting a little research about what type of stereotypes (成见) other cultures might hold about the people of your own country.
Be understanding and patient. Now that you know that people are all different, be understanding when you get to know them. Try to be openminded so that you can start off on the right foot. This will promote communication with them. To get to know each other better, plan to spend some time doing what each of you likes to do in your spare time. You can cook meals together, go out to the town, listen to music, take a weekend trip and plan some board games. Moreover, the other person might be from a place where people do not usually do these activities. The opportunities to learn from each other are endless, but sometimes it can take some initiative to actually make it happen.
People are more similar than you think most of the time. We grow up in such a large world with so much information everywhere and sometimes we can be misled into thinking something that we should not believe, but we have the opportunity to make up our own minds. So be kind. You don't know where people come from and what their story is.

I didn't know what to do. I felt a warm tear running down my cheek. I thought there would be no problem because he always knew how much I dreamt about studying abroad. I was so angry and said: “But why do I have to ask your permission? I am already 18 and I'm not a kid anymore. You can't tell me what is right and what is wrong.”
I shut the door so hard that it staggered. I was so disappointed that all these years he couldn't see what I was doing. The tears were flowing on their own. I realized how much my love for dad was. However, I just could not stay at my hometown anymore.
I left home and my eyes were full of anger and tears. I didn't know what to do and what to expect, but I decided to go far away from home and start creating my dream life. I took a bus and went to the airport.
I closed my eyes and felt that something was wrong. Everything was so silent when suddenly I heard my phone ringing. It was a nurse from the local hospital:
“Hello! Are you the daughter of Kuat?” she asked. “Your dad has had a heart attack and he's in a coma now. The situation's serious. We want you ...”
I wasn't listening to her anymore. Tears were flowing and I started to choke when all of a sudden I heard a man's voice and opened my eyes. I realized that it was a nightmare.

[精彩范文]
I started searching for my phone and wanted to hear my dad's voice. I seized my phone and took it out of my bag and quickly began to dial my dad's number. Then I heard, “Where are you, darling? Come home, please,” my daddy said with his trembling voice. I grabbed my bag and hastily got on the first bus I saw. Soon I was at home and my dad was sleeping on the doorstep, waiting for me all the time. I kissed him and he woke up.
“Here you are, my sweetie. I'm not letting you leave because I don't want you to forget me. I want to be your superhero and I want you to be my little Princess. But if that makes you happy, then move on,” my dad said through his tears. “I will never forget you, daddy. You are the best father ever,” I said. Then I understood that it was difficult for both of us and I asked in a voice full of hope and with glowing eyes, “What do you think about moving to the US?”“That's a brilliant idea. Let's go packing!” he said.
