Chapter 4

     By reading chapter 4, I found three key sections which are important and interesting for me. The first key 

section is Conversation Analysis which is a method of analyzing the patterns in face-to-face conversation 

that produce the smooth, back-and-forth turn -taking of such exchanges. I found that it's important for me, 

because when people make conversation, or face-to face conversation, it's important to make high quality 

conversation; however, when people are polite each other conversation level is very high and it's stay on a 

high level which feels good for me. I hope that people can start to make a conversation interesting and 

valuable, because conversation is a great source for our everyday stories. Think about some of 

the most important moments in your life and about the relationships you have. The foundation 

of nearly all of these is conversations. When we are learning about one another, we are 

listening and enjoying simple moments together.
   
     The second one that I found interesting and important to me is Organizations and Structure, 

which refers to the rules and routines, both formal and informal, that shape daily activity within 

organizations. The roles played by administrators, custodial and maintenance staff, 

professors, and students. Each group has specific roles. This is important for me, because 

every school should have its own roles, and must have  a high quality to teach students how to 

follow the roles and how to respect each other.

      The third one is Traditional action, which is motivated by custom. This is interesting and 

important for me because every country has different  traditions and customs. A tradition is a way 

of doing things that is handed down from generation to generation in a family, club, nation, any group. Tradition i

is important in that it lends a consistency to a social group. A traditional action can then take on a role, such as 

a marriage ceremony. The ceremony must have certain aspects to be recognized as a ceremony accepted by 

the group at large. 

Also, traditions serve as ways of binding a society over time. If we as a generation sing songs of earlier times of 

our country, it's our way of remembering our past and the people who lived then.
