4、 communication The key to effective cross-cultural communication is knowledge. First, it is essential that people understand the potential problems of cross-cultural communication, and make a conscious effort to overcome these problems. Second, it is important to assume that ones efforts will not al
5、ways be successful, and adjust ones behavior appropriately.2For example, one should always assume that there is a significant possibility that cultural differences are causing communication problems, and be willing to be patient and forgiving, rather than hostile and aggressive, if problems develop.
6、 One should respond slowly and carefully in cross-cultural exchanges, not jumping to the conclusion that you know what is being thought and said.Active listening can sometimes be used to check this outby repeating what one thinks he or she heard, one can confirm that one understands the communicatio
7、n accurately.

13、一个，这些词组在正常谈话中用得很紧凑，所以没有人会考虑它们的外国来源或者以前的意思。 Versa 可以被认为与 reverse 有关系，这样，不论 versa 还是 -verse 在 reverse 中都可以追溯到拉丁文动词 vertere，“ 旋转” Versa 实际上按照形式可以追溯到 vertere 的过去分词 versus，但是按照句法可以追溯到“ 倒转，转换成对面”的意思。Vice 是名词 vix 用来表达“一个相互的关系” 的绝对离格形式。整个词组的原义是“相互的关系被调换了” 或者“ 正常的顺序反过来，反过来说。 ”这个词组于 1601 年首次记录在英语用法中。5.

40、nfection, a person may not notice any symptoms or may experience a brief period of influenza-like illness. Typically, this is followed by a prolonged period with no symptoms. As the infection progresses, it interferes more with the immune system, increasing the risk of common infections like tubercu
41、losis, as well as other opportunistic infections, and tumors that rarely affect people who have working immune systems.These late symptoms of infection are referred to as AIDS. This stage is often also associated withweight loss.HIV is spread primarily by unprotected sex (including anal and oral sex
42、), contaminated blood transfusions, hypodermic needles, and from mother to child during pregnancy, delivery, or breastfeeding. Some bodily fluids, such as saliva and tears, do not transmit HIV. Methods of prevention include safe sex, needle exchange programs,treating those who are infected, and male
43、 circumcision. Disease in a baby can often be prevented by giving both the mother and childantiretroviral medication.There is no cure or vaccine; however, antiretroviral treatment can slow the course of the disease and may lead to a near-normal life expectancy.Treatment is recommended as soon as the
44、 diagnosis is made.13 Without treatment, the average survival time after infection is 11 years. 2) The Day We Went to a Hospital to See an AIDS Sufferer 12Last Sunday all of our class with our class together with our head teacher went to a hospital to see an AIDS sufferer.
