范文欣赏
Dear Jason,
I'm so glad that you are coming to China soon. Now, I'd like to share some tips about the Chinese customs with you.
Firstly, it's common to greet people by shaking hands when you meet somebody for the first time in China. Secondly, when you visit a friend's home, remember to bring a gift and be sure to take off your shoes as soon as you enter his home. Thirdly, when you have meals with others, you shouldn't start eating first unless the host asks you to. Besides, sticking chopsticks into a bowl of rice is so rude that you should avoid it. Last but not least, don't point at others with your chopsticks or wave them about when you talk.
I hope the above is helpful. Please feel free to ask for more information.
Yours,
Li Ming
