The Shabby Guitar Player

 I chose 1: The man is a beggar and should find a job.

   a)  Finding a job is important for him and me, because if he has a job, he will not come to my table and offer to play. When I come to this restaurant next time, I do not want to meet him. Maybe, I will give some money, but I will feel bad by his coming and offering.

   b)  I think Dimension1, 2, 5 are included in this answer.

Dimension1 influenced on my answer, because I cannot come in contact with the beggar with sympathy.

Dimension2 influenced on my answer widely, because I hurt my feelings by his manner which is to disturb my private time.

Dimension5 influenced on my answer, because I thought that he should have a widely horizon.

 

A Welcome at the Airport

  I chose 2: She is probably the person with whom you will have the meeting.

    a)   I think I should make contact with her, because I have never met her before, so I can not image her appearance. If I ignore her and can not have the meeting, it will be big problem.

    b)   I think Dimension1, 3, 4 are included in this answer.

Dimension1 influenced on my answer, because I can regard her as a businesswoman with strange clothes.

Dimension3 influenced on my answer widely, because we have ‘Stereotype’ in a formal thing and an informal thing.

Dimension4 influenced on my answer, because I try to identify her as a purpose person.

 

The Returning Athlete

   I chose 3: A big one, because even if she did not win, she did participate in the Olympic game and that is a great achievement.

     a)   It is very happy for everyone to have a famous person if even she is famous in the world or not. To praise a person who did her best for the country is very important and natural behavior.

     b)   I think Dimension1, 2, 4 are included in this answer.

Dimension1 influenced on my answer, because I presumed the sprit big worth.

Dimension2 influenced on my answer, because I praised her for the sprit without caring my town’s surrounding. She is a very big symbol for my town.

Dimension4 influenced on my answer, because we believed our own behavior to her.

 

A Virtual Contact

    I chose 1: Write a formal, polite paper letter on your company letterhead.

      a)   This is a business. So we should make a good relationship with somebody. Even if it does on the Web, we must care about a form.

      b)   I think Dimension2, 4 are included in this answer.

Dimension2 influenced on my answer, because a writing my company letterhead means that the letter is official. I must take responsibility for this matter.

Dimension4 influenced on my answer, because it is impossible to say ‘’ the Web is completely safe.’’ The Web has many dangerous problems. So we must not forget that it is very important for us to make contact with another person directly.

        5.        Could be interesting, maybe he plays well.

    (In  my  mind, I  think  everybody  in  the  world  should  be  politely  and  kindly  treated.)

        2.        She is probably the person with whom you will have the meeting.

        3.        It is wonderful to be welcomed so warmly.

    (They  did  have  done  something  for  me,even  if   it  seems  to  be not  very  formal, I  alse  feel  very  warmly  and  very  happy.)

        3.      A big one, because even if she did not win, she did participate in the Olympic games and that is a great achievement

    ( Because she  did  a great achievement, and  she has honored our town.)   

       2.      Send an e-mail starting “Dear Mr. so-and-so” and ending “Kind regards, X.”

   (I  think  send  an  e-mail  to  someone   that  I  have  never  met  before   before I  phone him  is  much  better.)

       I  have  written  my  answers  below  each  questions.
