Speaker
The interviewee mainly replys four questions in this interview
The first one is that why the interviewee, Erin, develops the interest in researching on cultural difference and inventing a Culture Map tool. Erin answers that this is becasue she found that the the development of theories of cultural management don't keep up with that of the world. So she hopes that she can contribute to this problem and help people better adapt to different culture they have to communicate with daily.
The second one is that why Erin make so many efforts to push the finding to an extremely high level. What she does is far beyond communication to talk about specific activites like persuasion. She replys that because she wants to help people pinpoint what is really different in their daily communication with various culture and thus increase the effectiveness. In most time, people only know several scales of this difference but not all of them, making them misunderstand some aspects of other culture.
The third one is that if three or more different culture works in a single room, how does her theory of relativity work. She gives us an example to clarify this quesition. Through this example, I realize that different cultures will a totally different point of view about a specific one. So, as the world changes so dramatically and thus only knowing the comparasion between one different culture and my own is not enough, understanding the relativily is the key to work with various culture in the world.
The last one is that the interviewer is curious that after the research, which cultures are closer to Erin's assumption and which ones are further apart. Erin states that we can't restrict our ideals to our sterotypes. We can't take us assumption to analyze the difference between various cultures because only small gaps between the assumption and reality matter.
Time2+3
The most risk recession is the recession of Euro zone. All the organizations, including IMF, are trying to figure out a solution. Until now, reforms of issuing low-interest funds and creating more wiggle room has been a feasible plan.
While many other people also argue that spending more money on infrastrcture will contribute to the growth of economy, the results of this method is inconclusive.
During this hard time, German has been under spotlight. However, even though IMF, USA and other G20 members ask Germany to shore up the sagging growth, Germany reject to do this.

The passage mainly tells us what will happen to US at the present time when economy of Europe becomes worse than assumed. While most of Europe suffers a sagging development, the lastest updates for Germany, the biggest economy, are dispointing. Because European Union is a major trade partner with the US, the sagging economy will also have a negative effect on the US. However, even though now the lastest numbers of Europen economy are not good-looking, those of American economy are encouraging. So, the problems of Europe will influence the development of the US but we don't know for sure what exactly the influence is.
