their cats safe, owners usually keep them indoors. 5 , many American homes have large yards, so cats
can play here and there. 6 differences also play a role. In Chinese culture, roundness (球形) means

Family influence is 8 reason. “My parents show their love by making delicious food for me, so I
treat my cat in the same way,” said a Chinese user.

Our table was full of fantastic, different food. We could 3 feel the strong spiciness (辣味) as soon as
we tried it. We could hardly eat any there, 4 it was too hot. Later, we wanted 5 different
dishes, so we visited a Hunan restaurant. The most famous Hunan dish is Steamed Fish Head with Chopped Chili.
Hunan cuisine is similar to Sichuan cuisine— 6 are spicy. But Sichuan food has a “numbing” spicy
flavor, while Hunan food is known for its “dry, fiery” spiciness. I also liked Tangyoubaba, a local food with nice

not have one special experience, you can never really know the other.

The world is full of 1 cultures. Each culture has its own traditions, customs, and values. Crossing
cultures means opening our minds to these 2 and learning to live in harmony with others.
My favorite part of cross-cultural communication 3 communicating with people from different
countries. I made a pen pal from Brazil last year. At first, we had some misunderstandings because of cultural
differences. For example, she often sent me long messages, but I preferred short ones. Later, we talked about it
and realized that it’s just a 4 of communication in different cultures.

Brazilians are very friendly and love to celebrate festivals. Last month, she invited me to join her family’s festival
online. I saw people dancing and singing, and I 7 very happy for her.

not judge others’ customs by our own standards. Instead, we should try to understand why 9 do things
in certain ways.
Crossing cultures is a wonderful journey. It helps us grow as people and makes the world a smaller place.
