1, I would love to go to Britain for further education. Britain has a well – built education system. Compared to China, it only takes students one year to finish a master’s course rather than three. Also, I can improve my English quickly by talking to native people, which helps me know British people and culture better , as well as make me stand out when I apply for a job later in China. In addition, I enjoy travelling a lot and Britain is a country I would like to visit.#p#分页标题#e#

2, I am well prepared for Britain. I started thinking about going to Britain for study in my third year of college. Since then, I have been searching for information about British culture and everything. For students from China, language can be the very first problem. I have been studying English for more than 10 years. I chose English as my major in college and I passed the TEM8 (the highest grade for English majors) at the beginning of the fourth year.

Now, I am putting more effort in English by doing a lot of reading, listening, speaking and writing. As for a different culture in Britain, I get to know more and more both from books and from internet. I don’t think that will be a problem for me either.

3, I should say most of what I learned in China are practical. It was a bit hard for me to understand local people who have some sort of accent, for example Scottish. They have a very strong accent and some of the words they use are quite different from English. For example, Scottish say “AYE” a lot instead of “yes” or “yeah” and “WEE” instead of “small” or “little”. Apart from the accent, I can understand most of what they say.

After living in Britain for a while, my English has greatly improved. I did a lot of part time jobs when I was doing my mater’s. I enjoyed talking with everyone, both the people I worked with and customers I served. Practise makes perfect. Thanks to the experience, I made huge progress in English.

4, Yeah, I do. Wherever I go, I consider myself as a representative of China. I enjoy telling people things about China, such as culture, people, history and technology. Local people from Britain are interested in China, but they get to know China only from media and books, which sometimes hold a very negative attitude towards China. I think it is part of my responsibility to let people from the world know more facts about China instead of thinking of China in an out-dated way.

I go back to China once a year for holiday. I meet family, friends and relatives. They are very interested in Britain as well. I show them the pictures and videos I took in Britain. They have quite a few questions about Britain and British which I am happy to answer.

5, There are not as many culture shocks as I expected, to be honest. Or I should say they are just cultural differences. Chinese and British have big differences in eating habits. Chinese food is more about flavour. British food can be more about nutrition and time efficiency. Besides, communication is another aspect. It doesn’t only mean speaking but also the relation between people. British people are straightforward most of the time. They will let you know directly what they are thinking, which is different from Chinese.

One thing that I found a bit strange when I first came here is that people call each other by names. For example, I can not call anyone uncle or aunt if they are not my proper relatives. There was once when I called one of my close friends “sister”, every local friends of mine took it as my proper sister living in Britain as well. After that, I understand what the reason was. There were a lot of things like that in my life, but the longer I stay here, the more attention I pay to these cultural differences.#p#分页标题#e#

6, Yes, there are from both sides. For me, I used to think all the British men were gentlemen, all the couples in a relationship go half and half when they pay for dinners, and I thought England was Britain. Now I find those are not 100 % correct. Some guys in Britain can be rude too though there are only a minority of them. For couples, sometimes men pay for everything, and sometimes women. It can also happen that couples take turns to pay for dinners. Most importantly, Britain is a kingdom which has three parts: England, Welsh and Scotland. So England is only a part of Britain. Most of the misunderstandings started when I was at college. Text books only gave me a general picture about Britain. After all, China and Britain are 10 hours’ plane away from each other.

British have some misunderstandings about China too. There are still a lot of people who think that China is as poor as it was 20 years ago. They are surprised to see the skyscrapers in Shanghai and hi-tech Chinese products on TV. As I mentioned above, they only know China from a small number of channels. These channels do not always give people a whole picture of China. What British people see and know is only a tiny little bit of China – like a tip of an iceberg.

7, yeah, tolerance is important. I have to get to know a whole different culture and get used to it if I want to live in Britain, which is true for every community. Eating, communication, transportation and working are all parts of this culture I am in. In other words, culture is in everything. If I don’t get used to it, there is no way that I can survive. That is why I have been trying my best to make local friends, go to local communities and activities where I can get to know people and culture better.

8, No, I don’t think my knowledge of Britain would be the same if I didn’t come here. Language is only one part of the whole culture. Living in a community can bring me the very detail of everything. On the other hand, my English wouldn’t have improved so much if I just learned it in China. Also, the ability in communicating is about the way you communicate. Your voice volume, your tones, your gestures that go with the words and your expressions are all important parts of English communication. The experience in Britain lets me know a lot more about this culture.

9, I think I am partly merged into the culture I am staying in and meanwhile I still keep my own Chinese way of thinking. I should say it is a mixture of both Chinese and British cultures. How long I stay in a foreign county matters a lot. I am a person who can easily adapt myself into one culture, and it will be a much harder life if I don’t change. It is like sunflowers that change the direction of their faces -moving towards the sun - to get more sunshine to survive. However, it is certain that the root won’t change.
