16/128

Americans often have short conversations, called small talk, with strangers whom they meet

on the street. Such chats occur at bus stops, on buses, in elevators, while waiting in line

almost anywhere that strangers gather close together. These short verbal exchanges are a

way to say hi and express friendliness. They usually center on broad topics such as the weather,

customer service, movies or TV shows, or a particular consumer product. Personal questions about

money, family, religious beliefs or politics are off limits during these conversations. When making

small talk, its best to ask open-ended questions. For example, if you ask visitors whether they like

your city, they may say simply, Yes. But if you ask What do you think

of our city, they will have more freedom in how they answer. This

type of question also shows that you are interested in theiropinion. Usually, if you appear to be interested

in what people are saying, they feel more

comfortable talking with you.

Americans end many conversations with

the phrase Have a nice day or Have a good

day. Store clerks, especially, say this to

customers after purchases are made. Though

at first it might sound insincere, studies

have shown that it actually makes many

people feel better. It gives people a sensethat others care about them, rather than

ignoring them. The American greeting

How are you has a similar effect. Even

though the questioner does not really care

about the answer, simply asking the

question often raises the other persons

spirits.

Many people in other countries have a misunderstanding about

American culture. They think that parents in the United States

kick their children out of their house when the latter turn eighteen,

and will not let them live at home again. Like every stereotype, this is only

partially true. While some parents insist that their children leave the nest

at eighteen, most are saddened to see their offspring go. Moreover, its

important to note that these young people rarely go grudgingly. The

majority of eighteen-year-olds are eager to fly the coop. Eighteen is

the age of legal adulthood in America, and these new adults are

anxious to spread their wings and soar on their own.Traditionally, students get their first taste of freedom on

the university campus, their first step in becoming independent of

their parents. Those who dont go to college usually find jobs and

move into apartments. In many cases, their parents help them

along at first.

After graduation, students might return home for a short time.

Usually their parents welcome them back. As soon as they find a

job, however, they leave their parents behind again, this time for

good. It is unusual in the United States for adults to live with their

parents. Those who do, in fact, often have to endure teasing aboutit from friends and colleagues. It is considered weak, a mark of

dependence, to be living with Mommy and Daddy once a person

has reached adulthood and started his or her own career.


1. When do you think a person becomes an adult?

Do other people in your class agree?

2. What does it mean to be an adult?

3. Is it unusual in your culture for grown children to live with their parents?

4. Did this passage change your perception of American culture? If so, how?

1. Why do you think most American teachers are women?

2. What kinds of people become teachers in your country?

3. Does teaching deserve more respect than other professions?

4. What qualifications or characteristics should a good teacher have?

Who is teaching American students? Are most American teachers men or women? What

is the general educational level of these teachers? In the last few years, there has been

much research into these and other questions. Now there is a fairly clear picture of the

people who teach in Americas schools.

To begin with, 75% of all teachers in the United States are women. In addition, most American

teachers, both men and women, are in their forties, with an average age of forty-six. Out of all the races

in American society, these teachers are most likely to be white. There is a somewhat disproportional

number of minority teachers in comparison to their overall populations. For example, a survey

found that 9% of US teachers were African American, though the population of African Americans

is around 13%. Of course, America is a big place, so these teacheraverages would vary depending on locations, and there are probably

a variety of reasons why there arent more minority teachers.

The average American teacher has been teaching for fourteen

years, which indicates that, generally speaking, most teachers see

their job as a career, not just temporary work. This also suggests

that teachers are largely happy with their profession. A recent

study seems to confirm this, finding that two thirds said they

enjoyed their jobs.

As might be expected, teachers on average are more educated

than the general public, with sixteen years of formal educationas opposed to thirteen for ordinary people. Another perception

is that teachers in the US do not make much money. Though

many people might protest that teachers are underpaid, the

average income of American teachers comes to about

$43,000 a year, which is close to the average for all people

with bachelors degrees.

CULTURAL READING

1. How common is it in your country to make reservations for restaurants?

2. Do you like to spend time enjoying a meal at a restaurant, or do you like to eat up and leave as soon

as possible?

3. Can restaurants be romantic, or are they simply places to eat?

4. Are there kinds of food that taste better at restaurants than they are made at home?

In the United States, if you want to go to a restaurant, you usually do not have to make a

reservation. Most restaurants are rarely full, so it is perfectly acceptable to just go.

If a restaurant is full when you arrive, you can simply wait a short time until a table

becomes available. At regular restaurants, the only times reservations are necessary are

special occasions such as New Years Eve.

For certain kinds of restaurants, it is always necessary to make reservations.

This can be for several reasons. Some restaurants may serve special or very

sophisticated food that can only be prepared for a specified number of people

or that takes longer than usual to prepare. This means that the number of

people coming has to be known exactly. Some other restaurants are simplyvery popular. Since so many people want to go there, reservations are the

only way to ensure that a table will be available. For some very popular or

elite restaurants, reservations must sometimes be made more than a month

in advance.

When making a reservation, you should say how many people are

coming, specify the time, and provide a name. It is important to be on

time for reservations. Being late or not coming at all can upset a restaurants

schedule, and other people who made reservations may be

inconvenienced. Therefore, it is always good

practice to inform a restaurant ifyou are going to be late or have

to cancel your reservation.

1. What are the three types of stores?

2. If you are on a tight budget, which stores would you patronize?

3. What are some differences between malls and flea markets?

4. What types of stores are there in your country?

Which stores do you prefer to shop in?

There are many different types of shops in the United States; they can be divided into three

price ranges: inexpensive, middle, and expensive.

Inexpensive shops cater to the general public, and they include some store chains,

thrift stores, and flea markets. Some store chains, such as Kmart, offer goods at low prices. Thrift

stores, or second-hand shops, are generally cheaper than the store chains, but they have a much

smaller selection of goods. Second-hand shops offer items that have been previously owned or used

and are being resold. The prices in these stores may be negotiable, unlike in the store chains. Flea

markets are a collection of independent vendors who sell their wares in a designated area. The

vendors usually rent space in a warehouse or parking lot for a certain number of days or hours.

The goods at flea markets may be new or used, and the prices are usually negotiable.Middle-priced stores usually have higher quality goods, but they are also more expensive. Mid-

range shopping centers include stores like Target and Fashion Bug. Shopping malls are a collection of

stores, usually inside a certain building or enclosed area. Unlike the flea market, mall vendors are

usually affiliated with a company, and they rent their space on a yearly contractual basis. Prices in

malls are fixed.

Expensive stores are generally specialty stores. They are devoted to very high quality or

unique products. Some shopping malls fall into the expensive price range as well. As

with the malls, the prices in these stores are not negotiable, although the service

and the quality of the goods are generally superior to those of other

stores.Whatever your goals or price range, you can

probably find whatever youre looking for if

you ask around. You might end up

having to drive for a while to

get there, but thats half the

fun of shopping expeditions.

Be sure to bring a friend!
