Before you begin:
 Read all the questions carefully.

 Check that you have answered all the questions.
 If you do not know the answer to a question, move on and come back to it at the end.
 Re-read your work once you have finished and look out for any silly mistakes.
A. Before reading the text, answer the following question in about 40 (20 marks)
words.
What do you like learning when it comes to learning English? Do you
like learning more about English grammar, vocabulary or culture?
Why?
Cultural differences and language barriers

The world is full of different cultures and languages, even within each
country. A good example is The United States where there are many different
people from around the world that speak so many different languages. This
raises an important question: How can people who come from distinct
cultures communicate effectively? You see, our culture makes us see, hear
and interpret the world we live in a particular way. Thus, it is easy to
understand that these various cultural interpretations can lead to serious
misinterpretation and confusion.
In some cultures, people are very emotional and outgoing, while in
others, they tend to be much more reserved and low profile. What makes
people react so differently in the same situations? Once again the answer is
culture. Cultures tend to differ due to religious beliefs, educational systems,
government, history and a whole lot of other things. The only way that we can
minimise or avoid conflict between cultures is if we make a conscious effort to
respect and understand each other.
But conflict can also arise from people speaking the same language.
The latter is far more subtle and tricky to control, but can be just as serious.
For example, a native speaker of a language might speak really quickly and
confuse a foreign speaker who is making a big effort to communicate
effectively in the language. The result will not only be stressful but may also
easily provoke a terribly confusing or embarrassing situation or even an ugly
argument.
To make things even more confusing there is the problem of body
language. For example, in some cultures it is polite to look straight into
someone’s eyes when speaking to them. In others, this is considered to be
intimidating and so is best avoided!
So, the real question is how can we avoid all this? Well, if this is to be
avoided, then each party needs to learn about different cultures as well as to
respect them and to be more tolerant and aware of them.

Listening script
PART 1
There are several greeting styles in South Africa depending upon the ethnic heritage
of the person you are meeting. When dealing with foreigners, most South Africans shake
hands while maintaining eye contact and smiling. Some women do not shake hands and
merely nod their head, so it is best to wait for a woman to extend her hand. Men may kiss a
woman they know well on the cheek in place of a handshake.
In general, South Africans give gifts for birthdays and Christmas. Two birthdays which
are often celebrated with a large party in which a lavish gift is given are 21 and 40. It is
common for several friends to contribute to this gift to help defray the cost. Wrapping a gift
nicely shows extra effort and it is always opened when it is received.
If you are invited to a South African’s house, arrive on time, especially if you are
invited to dinner. Offer to help the hostess with the preparation or clearing up after a meal is
served. Wear casual clothes. This may include jeans or pressed shorts. It is a good idea to
check with the hosts in advance.
PART 2
How are British South Africans different from the British living in Britain?
Obviously we have to generalise here and group people together. Not all will be the
same however.
People of British descent who have been in South Africa for generations tend on the
whole to have more traditional values: they are indeed much more church going, are stricter
with their children and more courteous to one another. The values that went out with them
remain by and large unchanged. The children are brought up with respect for their elders, and
the family structures are still important. Having said this, the “curse” of modern life is
impacting on society, and problems similar to those of the UK and US do exist. However, anti-
social acts are not tolerated so easily. When it comes to drinking, they still drink a lot, but not
in the binge drinking mode. Beer is drunk at most events and there is problem drinking, but it
is not as noticeable as in the UK.
