Their friendships, however, tend to be shorter and more casual than friendships among people from other cultures. It is not uncommon for Americans to have only one close friend during their lifetime, and consider other 'friends' to be just social acquaintances. This attitude probably has something to do with American mobility and the fact that Americans do not like to be dependent on other people. They tend to ' compartmentalize' friendships, having 'friends at work', ' friends on the softball team', 'family friends', etc. Because the United States is a highly active society, full of movement and change, people always seem to be on the go. In this highly changed atmosphere, Americans can sometimes seem brusque or impatient. They want to get to know you as quickly as possible and then move on to something else. Sometimes, early on, they will ask you questions that you may feel are very personal. No insult in intended; the questions usually grow out of their genuine interest or curiosity, and their impatience to get to the heart of the matter. And the same goes for you. If you do not understand certain American behavior or you want to know more about them, do not hesitate to ask all about their country or anything 'American' in which you may be interested. So much so in fact that you may become tried of listening. It doesn't matter, because Americans tend to be uncomfortable with silence during a conversation. They would rather talk about the weather or the latest sports scores, for example, than deal with silence. On the other hand, don't expect Americans to be knowledgeable about international geography or world affairs, unless those subjects directly involve the United States. Because the United states is not surrounded by many other nations, some Americans tend to ignore the rest of the world. 1.What is the main idea of the first paragraph?(no more than 15words) _______________________________________________________________ 2.The underlined phrase on the go means '______' __________________________________________________________________ 3.What would Americans prefer to talk about in order to carry on a comfortable conversation?( no more than 10 words) ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 4.According to the customs mentioned in the passage, what would you do if you want to know something about America?(no more than 10 words) _______________________________________________________________ 5. why don't Americans know much about international geography or world affairs?( no more than 15 words) ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
