Instruction:

The following is a case of cross-cultural communication. Please use the “three-step approach” to analyze the cases. Failure in applying all steps will result in the loss of marks.

Ma Dan (马丹) and Michael are classmates in the States. It is only one week before the submission date for a term paper for their class. Unfortunately, Ma’s computer broke down at this critical time. In order to hand in the paper on time, Ma Dan decided to borrow Michael’s computer for only one day to finish her typing. In order to get an easy “yes” from him, Ma Dan treated Michael to a pizza lunch at Pizza Hut, an expensive eating-place for students like them. At the end of the lunch, Ma Dan asked Michael for a favor: “Michael, my computer broke down recently. But you know we have to hand in our term paper on time. I wonder if I could borrow your computer this weekend. We are friends, aren’t we?” To her astonishment, Michael replied, “Yes, we are friends, Dan. But I’m afraid I’ve got a lot of things I need to type up every day during these days. I cannot afford to let it go even for a day. I hope I could help you in other ways.” Ma Dan was puzzled and thought: “are we really friends?”
