3.Facial expressions carry meaning that is determined by situations and relationships.For example,in American culture (文化) the smile is in general an expression of pleasure.Yet it also has other uses.A woman's smile at a police officer does not carry the same meaning as the smile she gives to a young child.A smile may show love or politeness.It can also hide true feelings.It often causes confusion (困惑) across cultures.For example,many people in Russia consider smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even improper.Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places (although this is less common in big cities).Some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places; some Americans believe that Russians don't smile enough.In Southeast Asian culture,a smile is frequently used to cover painful feelings.Vietnamese people may tell a sad story but end the story with a smile.
Our faces show emotions (情感),but we should not attempt to"read"people from another culture as we would"read"someone from our own culture.The fact that members of one culture do not express their emotions as openly as do members of another does not mean that they do not experience emotions.Rather,there are cultural differences in the amount of facial expressiveness permitted.For example,in public and in formal situations many Japanese do not show their emotions as freely as Americans do.When with friends,Japanese and Americans seem to show their emotions similarly.
It is difficult to generalize about Americans and facial expressiveness because of personal and cultural differences in the United States.People from certain cultural backgrounds in the United States seem to be more facially expressive than others.The key is to try not to judge people whose ways of showing emotion are different.If we judge according to our own cultural habits,we may make the mistake of"reading"the other person incorrectly.

10."BANG!"the door caused a reverberation (回声).It was just standing there,with father standing on one side,and me on the other side.
We were both in great anger."Never set foot in this house again!"stormed father.With tears welling up in my eyes,I rushed out of the flat and ran along the street.
The street lights were shining,causing rather sad feelings.I wandered aimlessly.
A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me.I felt as if I saw my childhood from another space:happy and carefree.
But now …I don't know whether it is because I have grown up or because dad is getting old.We differ in our ways of thinking.We are just like two people coming from two different worlds.It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened.
I wandered the steets,without a destination in mind.My heart was frozen on this hot summer night.As I walked on,there were fewer and fewer people on the streets,until I had only the street lights to keep me company.When I finally reached the high-rise apartment block in which I lived,I saw that the light was still on.
I thought to myself:"Is father waiting for me,or is he still angry with me?"
In fact,it was nothing.Perhaps,dad was throwing away some of his old stamps.Perhaps he thought they were useless.I never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps.
All the lights were off except father's.
Dad was always like this.Maybe he didn't know how to express himself.After shouting at me,he never showed any mercy or any moments of regret.
This was how he always was.He has been a leader for so long that tellig everyone else what to do has become his second nature.
The light was still on."Am I wrong?"I whispered,maybe…With the key in my hand,I was as nervous as I had ever been.At last,I decided to open the door.As soon as I opened the door,tears ran down my cheeks.I suddenly realized that the iron door that I had imagined between us did not exist at all.Love----it's second to none.
