INTERCULTURAL COMMUNICATION
‘Apersonal goal for many students s to be able to speak English
perfectly. By this, they mean that they would lice tobe abe to tell a
joke or feel completely confident in atace-totace conversation with
‘a group of native speakers. Any student can achieve this goal (and
‘many da), but it takes mary, many years of study.
Itjust the thought of all those years of study makes you feel
‘exhausted then the book you are now holding in your hands may
‘befor you. A Beginner's Guide to Intercultural Communication has
‘been written to help students who are learning English to answer
the question, What are the best ways to communicate in a foreign
language?
BUt frst of al, let's think about what communication actually

| Is simple - whether something seems to be rude or polite
depends on culture. To communicate successfully in a foreign
language, we need to remember that people are usually trying
to say the same things, but we also need to remember that
diferent cultures say them in different ways — and that is what
intercultural communication is all about. GVLISTENING

To ANTIDOTE: HAPPINESS Rel PEOPLEWHO
CAN'T STAND POSITIVE THINKING by oliver Burkeman
{s your life disappointing? Does that make you feel depressed? If you answered yes to those two
‘questions, what can you do to find happiness? The answers to these questions can be worth their
‘weight in gold - last year, people spent almost $11 billion on self-help books. These books promise
a ‘tomake us more confident, more sociable and more successful. They tell us that all we really need to
find love and achieve our goals is a positive attitude,
Ifyou are amused by promises like these, then Oliver Burkeman’s book The Antidote might just be
for you. Burkeman has travelled the world in search of happiness and he has found itn some very
unusual places. For example, he meets poor people in Africa who seem to be happier than some
‘wealthy people he knows in London. For Burkeman, this shows Us that people who do not own very
‘much cannot worry about losing it. In other words, having a lotof things can add a lot of stress to
Sip Ut Ive OF course, he isnot saying that poor people in Africa have an easy ie. Instead, Burkemnan
ay uses this example to talk about ‘negative paths!
negative path is important for a satisfying life, He suggests that we need to remind
‘ourselves that bad things happen and that we should learn tollve with ther. True
«happiness - ifit exists - must include both positive and negative experiences. A complete
PN fe should be one that knows hate as wells love and ilness as wel as health.
In my favourite part of the Book, Burkeman takes us toa small village in Mexico
‘on the Day of the Dead, The Day of the Dead is a festival that celebrates everyone
who has died. However, it is not a sad festival at all, but a lively party for friends
and family. According to Burkeman, we need events like this to remember why We
should be happy more often. The Antidote is an ir teresting book that has the ability
tomake you feel that happiness really is possible. GI USTENING
