英语备考（课文、翻译、十五选十）Unit 1课文：Communicating successfully with people from different cultures can be a real challenge. Cultural differences may lead to tensions（紧张）, arguments（争论）, and even wars between peoples and nations. We bear（承担）equal responsibility for teaching people of different cultures about our culture and in turn（进而）learning about theirs. We cannot expect people from other cultures to understand ours automatically（自动地[ˌɔːtəˈmætɪkli]）. Probably the best strategy（策略）for coping with the various （各种各样的）impacts（[ɪmˈpækts]冲击）of culture shock is to make a conscious（有意识的）effort to adjust to the new culture, though it may require personal awareness（意识）, patience, and perseverance（毅力ˌpɜːrsəˈvɪrəns）.与来自不同文化背景的人成功交流可能是一项真正的挑战。

文化差异可能导致人民和国家之间的紧张关系、争论，甚至战争。

我们承担同等的责任，向不同文化的人传授我们的文化，进而了解他们的文化。

我们不能指望来自其他文化的人自动理解我们的。
