1. As soon as Todd arrives, he experiences the discomfort of being disoriented in a
strange new place. What happens at the airport?

 Thay write his name wrong and in the airport he didn’t see his name .

2. When a friendly traveler helps him get on the train, what does he tell him to do?
He tells him to jump into the train while it was moving .

3. When he gets on the train, he cannot find an empty seat. How is this problem
solved for him? How might this be a cultural solution?

 Nice guy.

4. As any exchange student, he has a lot of experiences trying new food. His first
encounter is with an iced drink. What happens?

 He eat with left hand.

5. First encounters with a culture can be shocking – Todd sees crowded streets with
cows, noise, and a man urinating in the street. But how does his host describe the
city?

Explain to him that the left hand is unclean.

 

6. Even though the host Puro speaks English, Todd uses American slang a lot
without thinking. So as not to insult Puro, what does he say the meaning of
Schmuck is?

 To eat cheese burger.

What is the reason he gives Todd?

. I will never do lt again

Americans who have just met would never ask. What kind of things does she ask?
Do not ask for beef again.

9. During his first conversation with Aunti Ji he makes two big mistakes. What are
they?

 He understands and respect Indian culture.

10. The Golden Rule says do unto others as you would have them do unto you. That
means his Indian hosts and friends are trying to make him comfortable the way
they would be comfortable. How does this apply when the servant is preparing
tea for Todd? He sat with them and made himself as a member of the family.
