Sun Yan was very happy to hear that she had been accepted by TDP Company,a well-known American company in Beijing,in which she had been looking forward to finding a position.When she came to the office on her first day and was introduced to her boss,Mr Blake,she could tell at once he was a kind of person and easy to get along with.
Everything went smoothly.My Blake and Sun Yan worked together well.Mr Blake had confidence in Sun Yan and regarded her as sweet,smart and efficient.He would often discuss things together with Sun Yan before making decisions.One day when she ws ordering her files in the room outside Mr Blake’s office,Sun Yan heard Mr Blake opening his door and calling her.She looked up and saw Mr Blake extending his left hand,palm up,beckoning her with the forefinger.She put her work down at once and went into Mr Blake’s office.Mr Blake then asked to hear her opinion about a new project.
Later that day,Sun Yan felt a little depressed.She recalled every detail of the day and to try to recall anything which may have upset her and finally found the answer.And when she recalled that scene again,she couldn’t help viewing Mr Blake in a rather less favorable light than before.
Questions:
1.What did Mr Blake do that made Sun Yan suddenly change her opinion about him?Why?
2.What would you do in order to better understand Mr Blake’s gesture if you were in Sun Yan’s situation?
英语翻译Sun Yan was very happy to hear that she had been accepte
1. The way he backoned her into his office.
He used his left hand, and beckoned her using only his forefinger, that is a insulting gesture. We do that to pets, but never can we do so to a collegue.
2. If I was Sun Yan, I would say:" Sorry, Mr Blake,In China beckoning with forefinger means 'I'm sorry, can you forgive me?', In American , it means you are calling your dog. So, I'm confused what you are meaning."
