This time the old lady also wrote on the paper, “Hospital.” So, Li Ming began to draw the route on the paper, but finding his time was limited and afraid she may have trouble, he just wrote, “Let me take you there”.

Please reply to Tom and give him some advice. greetings 01 table manners 02 receive gifts 03 space 04 eye contact ... 05 A sample writing Dear Tom, I’m excited about your upcoming visit during the Spring Festival! To help you navigate Chinese culture more smoothly, here are some tips on body language etiquette: When greeting someone, a slight nod or bow with a handshake among friends is common. However, prolonged eye contact might be interpreted as impolite, so it’s polite to glance away briefly. Receiving gifts requires expressing gratitude verbally but avoiding immediate opening in the presence of the giver, as it shows respect for their thoughtfulness. For requests or giving directions, we often use open palms facing upward, which conveys friendliness and non-aggression. Lastly, personal space is respected, although we tend to stand closer than Westerners during conversations. Always be sensitive to others’ comfort levels. These are general guidelines, and individual behavior may vary. Keep an open mind and enjoy learning about our customs!Looking forward to your visit and sharing the joy of the Spring Festival with you! Warm regards, Li Hua The eyes are the windows to the soul. 眼睛是心灵的窗户。 A smile goes a long way. 微笑能走很远的路。 Your body never lies. 你的身体从不撒谎。 Posture says a lot about a person. 姿势能说明一个人的很多情况。 Body language tells the truth. 身体语言揭示真相。 The way you stand says a lot about you. 你站立的方式能说明很多关于你的事。 Non-verbal cues can speak louder than words. 非语言线索比言语更有说服力。 Using Language Thanks for Listening Lavf58.20.100 Lavf56.40.101 Tencent APD MTS $$
