I have many good friends in Canada, though Canadian culture is different from Chinese culture.
My name is Wu Zhou. I have lived in Canada for twenty-three years. In Canada, I call myself Joe Wu. Joe is an English name that sounds like Zhou.
Though I have lived here for a long time, I still don't feel Canadian. This is probably because North American manners and Chinese manners are so different.
In China, people seldom give extra money to waiters, waitresses, taxi drivers or hotel workers. In North America, this is always done. It is called “tipping”.
It's interesting to experience two different cultures. I think understanding cultural differences really helps us to understand each other, live together and work together.
In China, being modest is a virtue. If someone praises you and says that your English is excellent, you should be modest and say,"No, no. My English is still poor," But in North America, this is usually a sign of being weak and not confident, You should just say, “Thank you,”
In Canada, people only ask children about their age. It's not polite to ask an adult's age. They think it is private. But this is common in many places in China.
The teacher praised her for her courage.
praise作动词的用法:
praise+n./pron.称赞……
They have been praising you all the time.
praise sb. for sth.因某事赞扬某人
