American Social Relations

Gladys G.Doty Janet Ross

American society is much more informal than that of many other countries and, in some ways, is characterized by less social distinction. The American mixture of pride in achievement and sense of “I’m just as good as anybody else.” along with lack of importance placed on personal dignity, is difficult for a foreigner to understand. Americans in general do not like to be considered inferior, and they grumble loudly about inconveniences or not getting a “fair deal.” Yet they do not make a point of their personal honor. As an illustration of the difference between Europen and American reflection in this respect, John Whyte in American Words and Ways gives the following account.

A…[European] professor [visiting in American] was once sent a bil for hospital services which he had never enjoyed. The bill was accompanied by a strong letter demanding payment. It was obvious that a mistake in names had been made, but the professor, thoroughly aroused by this reflection on his character and financial integrity, wrote a vigorous letter of reply ( which an American might also have done.) But in this letter of reply he demanded that the creditor write him a formal letter of apology… for this reflection on his honor. Since no publicity could possibly have been given to the mistake, for mistake it was, most Americans in that sitution, after getting the matter off their chest ( or without doing that ) would have let the matter rest.

An example of the same thing may be that although Americans like to talk about their accomplishments, it is their custom to show certain modesty in reply to compliments. When someone praises an American upon his achievement or upon his personal appearance, which, incidentally, is a very polite thing to do in America, the American turns it aside. If someone should say, “Congratulations upon being elected president of the club,” an American is expected to reply, “Well, I hope I can do a good job,” or something of the sort. Or if someone says, “That’s a pretty blue necktie you are wearing,” an American is likely to say, “I’m glad you like it,” or “Thank you. My wife gave it to me for my birthday.” The response to a compliment seldom conveys the idea, “I, too, think I’m pretty good.”

Likewise, there are fewer social conventions that show social differences in America. Students do not rise when a teacher enters the room. One does not always address a person by his title, such as “Professor” or “Doctor” (“Doctor” is always used, however, for a doctor fo medicine). The respectful “sir” is not always used in the northern and western parts of the country.

Clothing in America, as in every place in the world, to a certain degree reflects a person’s social position and income, or, at least among the young, his attitudes toward society or toward himself. Yet no person is restricted to a certain uniform or manner of dress because of his occupations or class in society. A bank president may wear overalls to paint his house and is not ashamed of either the job or the clothing, and a common laborer may wear a rented tuxedo at his daughter’s wedding.

Yet in spite of all the informality, America is not completely without customs that show consciousness of social distinction. For example, one is likely to use somewhat more formal language when talking to superiors. While the informal “Hello” is an acceptable greeting from employee to employer, the employee is more apt to say, “Hello, Mr. Ferguson,” whereas the emplyer may reply, “Hello, Jim.” Southerners make a point of saying “Yes,sir,” or “Yes,ma’am,” or “No,sir,” or “No, ma’am,” when talking to an older person or a person in position of authority. Although this is a good form all over the United States, “Yes, Mr. Weston.” or “No, Mrs. Baker” is somewhat more common in a similar situation in the North or West.

Certain other forms of politeness are observed on social occasions. Though people wear hats less now than in the past, women still occasionally wear hats in church and at public social functions ( except those that are in the evening ).

In American there are still customs by which a man may show respect for a woman. He opens the door for her and lets her precede him through it. He walks on the side of the walk nearest the street. He takes her arm when crossing a street or descending a stairway. A younger person also shows respect for an older one in much the same fashion, by helping the older person in things requiring physical exertion or involving possible accident.

American surface informality often confuses the foreigner because he interprets it to mean no formality at all. He does not understand the point at which informality stops. A teacher, though friendly, pleasant, and informal in class, expects students to study hard, and he grades each student’s work critically and carefully. He also expects to be treated with respect. Although students are free to ask questions about statements made by the teacher, and may say that they disagree with what he says, they are not expected to contradict him. Similarly, in boy-girl relationships a foreign student should not mistake the easy relationship and flattery that are part of the dating pattern in the United States, nor presume that it means more than it does.

Also, because an American is perhaps more likely to admit and laugh at his own mistakes than one who stands more on his dignity, a foreigner sometimes does not know how to handle the American’s apparent modesty. The American is quite ready to admit certain weaknesses, such as “I never was good at mathematics.” “I’m a rotten tennis player.” or “I’m the world’s worst bridge player.” However, the stranger must not be too quick to agree with him. American think it is all right, even sporting, to admit a defect in themselves, but they feel that it is almost an insult to have someone else agree. A part of American idea of good aportmanship is the point of being generous to a loser. This attitude is carried over into matters that have nothing to do with competition. If a man talks about his weak points, the listener says something in the way of encouragement,or point to other qualities in which the speaker excels. An American student reports that when he was in a foreign country he was completely stunned when he said to a native, “I don’t speak your language very well.” and the native replied, “I should say you don’t.” In a similar situation an American would have commented, “Well, you have only been here two months.” or “But you’re making progress.”

Although Americans are quite informal, it is best for a foreigner, in case of doubt, to be too formal rather than not formal enough. Consideration for others is the basis of all courtesy.

美国的社会比其他国家的社会更加非正式，在某些方面，美国社会的特征就是较少的社会差别。

自考英美文学选读教材改版

如果已经决定了，请坚持下去，相信最后胜利一定会属于你的。我也是读英语自考毕业的。当时，班里有一个女生也是中专毕业，后来选择读自考的。专科段的课程她学起来都困难，这是事实。但她的精神让我很佩服。一到上课，她遇到不懂的就问老师。甚至有时问题太简单了，同学们会嘘声一片。但她坚持下来了，每天都认真上课认真复习认真去上自习。四年下来，毕业率不到5%，她在其中之中。希望你能坚持。因为你感兴趣，兴趣是最好的老师了，这样的话即使你学习很辛苦，但也是甜的。

至于自考的复习，我并没有下太多功夫。因为以前高中时就喜欢英语也有点底子。但如果你功底不好。请你还是踏踏实实地走吧。如果时间充足就从基础的单词，句子，及课文整体意思去学，如果时间紧张地话就只抓粗枝末叶了。记得以前综合英语二还没上课，我就自己报了，时间也紧，我就只背了单词和看了中文的译文，结果也过了。注意，课文的整体意思一定要记个大概，而且个别细节也要记。比如有一次，都考到了课文中主人公的名字。

记单词的话，没有秘诀，关键是及时重复记忆或者把单词放在句子中背。

加油，祝你好运了。

自考综合英语(一)

有一定英语底子的话还是容易的，底子如果不够建议还是慎重考虑，至少把英语水平提升一下考会比较好。英语专业是建立在已有的高中英语基础上，继续往更高难度学习，如果常用的英语也不扎实，想深入学习极其吃力。

自考英语要考什么科目？

大部分院校英语专业要考毛泽东思想和中国特色社会主义理论体系概论、思想道德修养与法律基础、英语国家概况、听力、口语、阅读（一）、阅读（二）、英语写作基础、综合英语（一）、综合英语（二）、大学语文、中国近现代史纲要、马克思主义基本原理概论、第二外语（俄语）、第二外语（日语）、第二外语（法语）、第二外语（德语）、高级英语、英语翻译、口译与听力、英语写作、英美文学选读、英语语法、英语词汇学、外语教学法、国际商务英语、英语科技文选、综合英语（二）、听力、口语、毕业论文。

自考英语怎么复习？

1、要结合自身实际情况制定英语学习计划

如果你的基础比较好，你可以自己安排复习计划，但是大部分同学可能基础比较薄弱，这时候你可以选择报辅导班，跟着老师的节奏来。上课一定要认真听，老师会循序渐进地把语法跟单词一起讲，跟着老师走准没错。

2、学英语是一个积累的过程，就跟滚雪球一样重在坚持

刚开始的时候你可能会感到吃力，学不进去，但是当你坚持一段时间以后就会越来越轻松愉快。
