way to a bookstore. As they got to the bookstore, they saw a young man walking down the stairs. In his hurry,
he missed the last two steps, and fell to the ground. He tried hard to get back to his feet while people around
him laughed. Luckily, he seemed to be OK.
Mary was worried. She found Huihua smiling a little and was not comfortable about it. "Tell me, Huihua,
how could people laugh when someone felllike that? Do they care at all? Shouldn"t they go up and ask the
young man whether he was hurt?"
"They knew he wasn"t hurt too much." Huihua said.
"But I still don"t understand. A fall is a fall. In my culture, people would do anything but laugh!"
Chinese Perspective (观点)
This is an example in which the Chinese and the westemers explain a smile differently. Very often, the
Chinese people would also laugh or make a joke to ease the embarrassment (缓解尴尬) when they are caught
in the embarrassing situation. However, if someone gets hurt seriously, it will not be a laughing matter any
more. People will help him instead.
North American Perspective A westemer would explain laughter in such a situation as a sign of either
insensitivity (不关心) or, worse, pleasure that the person falling had hurt himself because that person was
disliked. A westemer"s reaction would have been to rush over, help the person up, and to ask him," Are you
OK"?" If a westemer fell, he, like a Chinese person, might probably make a joke out of the incident (事件)
if he was not hurt. If two close friends are walking together, and one trips but clearly isn"t hurt, a common
joke is to say "Have a nice trip". However, this joke would be made only between two people who knew each
other well. | 1. Did Huihua help the young man after he fell down in the bookstore?

west of England. He was swimming in the sea one day. As he opened his mouth, his false (not real) teeth fell
out and floated (漂) away. The following year, Mr. Jones retumed to the same town. When he was having
dinner in a local cafe one evening, he mentioned the story of his lost teeth to the manager. The manager looked
surprised. He explained that he had found a set of false teeth on the beach last month.Then he asked Roy
Jones if he wanted to try them on. "OK," said Mr. Jones. "I suppose it won"t do any harm." When the
manager brought him the teeth, Mr. Jones put them into the mouth, and laughed and laughed. They were his!

three hours, but couldn"t find it. A few months later, Mr. Bentley went fishing off the same beach. As he

" Mum, you never let me make decisions. You always decide what we are going to eat or where we are going
to go. "
The next day her mum called, " Lisa, you can decide what you are going to eat. I"ll cook whatever you
want, but you have to eat up whatever you ask for. " A big smile spread across Lisa"s face. "Okay. I"d like
bacon, sausages, toast, eggs and chocolate milk. "
Lisa liked this. She ate the bacon, sausages and toast, but when she finished her first egg, she was full. Lisa
forced herself to eat up and then she walked to school. When she got to school, her stomach hurt, but by the
time she was ready to go home, she had been back to normal.
"Mum, I"d like steak, pie, peas, bread and butter and chocolate cake for supper. " As her mum made supper,
she started smiling, knowing it wouldn"t be much longer before Lisa leamed her lesson. Lisa had no problem
finishing the steak, pie, peas, bread and butter, but when she started eating the chocolate cake, she felt very
full. That night she had a stomachache. She was up all night crying and felt very sick.
The next moming she went to her mum, " Mum, I don"t want to make all the choices any more. I want
you to pick what we"ll have for dinner in the future. "
Satisfied that Lisa had leamed her lesson, her mum replied, " You can pick what to eat once a week, but
don"t ask for too much, all right?"
From then on, Lisa didn"t argue with her mum that much, and her mum let her make more decisions. They

Mama would carefully divide big groups for the housing, and food, and one or two coins for Nels or 1
-Katrin to buy notebooks.
With 2 interest we would watch the money becoming less and less. At last Papa would ask, "Is all?"
When Mama nodded, we could relax a little. For Mama would look up and smile, "Is good," she"d say,
"we do not have to go to the Bank.”

money out of the bank.

could be put off.
The day the Strike was over and Papa 10 to work, I saw Mama stand a little straighter. Last year I sold
my first story. I hurried to Mama"s and showed her the check. " For you," I said, "to put in your Bank Account. "
"Is no 11 ," Mama said. "In all my life, I"ve never been inside a Bank. "
