Unit5 Crossing Cultures作文讲解与练习

 写作话题

本单元的核心话题是“跨文化沟通”，重点探讨文化习俗、身份适应及跨文化沟通策略。写作时,可聚焦不同国家在做客拜访、餐桌礼仪、礼物往来等习俗场景,介绍各类习俗细节（像到达时间、合适礼物、用餐规范等），对比文化异同,还可融入交流时因习俗不同产生的故事、感受。文体可选用议论文、说明文或记叙文。人称以第三人称客观论述或第一人称经历叙述为主,时态灵活运用一般现在时（普适规律）与一般过去时（个人经历），借助as soon as,so that等引导的状语从句以及firstly, secondly等副词清晰呈现逻辑，展现对跨文化习俗的理解及跨文化沟通的思考。
