关键事件练习 (CIE) 越来越多地在英语课程中使用，毫无疑问，除了提供英语练习机会外，CIE 还可以帮助学习者培养跨文化能力。问题是：CIE 帮助学习者培养跨文化能力的哪些具体方面？本文介绍了一种开放式的 CIE 形式，称为“遭遇练习”，并探讨了定期使用此类练习有助于学习者建立跨文化能力的各个方面。本文借鉴有关双过程思维观的最新文献，认为遭遇练习对于帮助学习者建立以下思维习惯很有价值：（1）有意识地意识到跨文化交际情境中的解释过程，（2）有意识地考虑对令人困惑或有问题的跨文化遭遇的多种解释，（3）有意识地关注可能影响人们如何解释有问题的跨文化遭遇的因素，特别是影响感受或解释规则的因素，以及（4）有意识地关注“疑点利益”问题。
Critical incident exercises (CIEs) are increasingly used in English courses, and there seems little doubt that in addition to providing English practice opportunities CIEs also help learners build intercultural competence. The question is: What precise aspects of intercultural competence do CIEs help learners build? This article introduces an open-ended variety of CIE called an ‘encounter exercise,’ and explores the aspects of intercultural competence regular use of such exercises helps learners build. Drawing on recent literature about dual-process views of thinking, this article argues that encounter exercises are valuable for helping learners build the following habits of thought: (1) being consciously aware of the interpretation process in intercultural communication situations, (2) consciously considering multiple interpretations of puzzling or problematic intercultural encounters, (3) paying conscious attention to factors that may affect how one interprets problematic intercultural encounters, especially factors that affect feelings or interpretation rules, and (4) paying conscious attention to the ‘benefit-of-the-doubt’ question.
