Fast Reading教学基本内容（重点、难点）：Section A Time-Conscious Americans I. Background Cultural differences: Students and teachers need to be aware that the ethnocentric attitudes of writers are precisely the way cultural conflict is encouraged. Why is understanding a culture always the others responsibility? Is it not possible that each culture could be made aware of different conventions? Both sides must work at above cultural differences and be willing to compromise and, in both cases, most likely neither side has access to the cultural conventions of the other so blaming is not the answer. Educating is.II. Pre-reading Activities Ask students to answer the following questions1. How is time treated in China? What is the difference with that in the USA?2. What is culture shock?3. How do Americans view time? III.
