Developing your skills
Expressing Feelings
Some of the possible answers that students may give about the parents include: ? Caring parents who would like Katy to know some Chinese or something about China.
? Family people who still have contacts with their relatives in China.
? American Chinese who still have interests and ties to their Chinese roots and culture.
Examples of things that the parents might say are:
? I hope Sam will get Katy interested in Chinese culture.
? Katy is a bit rude. She should come and join in our conversation. ? Do you think Katy really likes Sam?
? Oh no, what have we done by inviting Sam to our home! ? Thank god, Katy is safe! The silly girl has gone to Sam.
? Do you think Katy knows what she is doing by getting married to Sam? ? Our girl has really changed and we are proud grandparents now.
Some examples of the conversations are:
1) Mother: It?s really nice to have Sam with us.
Father: Yes, it is. Hopefully he?ll get Katy interested in China.
Mother: Yes, we should ask Sam to tell Katy nice things about China and the Chinese way of life.
Father: Yes, good idea.
2) Father: Katy is so American. I?m really worried about her behaviour.
Mother: Yes, I can?t understand why she doesn?t seem to enjoy Sam?s company. He?s such a lovely young man.
Father: Maybe it?s because we are speaking in Chinese and Katy doesn?t understand what
