Subject Home visit—Help needed!
Could you give me some advice? Should I bring a gift? In America we usually bring the host something small, like food. Is that a good idea? Also, what are the right table manners? What are some good conversation topics in China? Is there anything else I should know? I’m worried about doing something silly. It could give people the false impression that I’m a rude person. First impressions are so important that I don’t want to say or do anything wrong!
I’m looking forward to hearing from you soon!
Cheers,
Tina

It’s important for us to show good manners when we visit friends. In China, we’d better bring a gift when visiting someone. It doesn’t need to be too expensive (昂贵的). For greetings, shaking hands usually works well. When eating, let the older people eat first. Remember not to stick your chopsticks into food or hit the bowl with them. When you have small talk, family life and hobbies seem to be good conversation topics.(答案不唯一,仅供参考)

Dear Tina,
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 and saying “Ni hao” when you meet somebody for the first time in China. Secondly, remember to bring a small gift, such as fruit or flowers. And be sure to take off your shoes as soon as you enter their home.
范文欣赏
Thirdly, you shouldn’t start eating first unless the host asks you to at the table. Besides, never stick the chopsticks into a bowl of rice or point at others with your chopsticks — they’re considered to be rude. As for good conversation topics, food and hobbies are safe.
I hope the advice is helpful. Please feel free to ask if you want to know more.
Yours,
Yaming
Dear Tina,
It’s so great to hear from you! You asked me about Chinese customs. Here are my suggestions.
You can just nod and say “ Ni hao ” when you meet someone. You should bring some small gifts when visiting a friend, such as fruit or flowers. But clocks are not good gifts. During the meal, never stick chopsticks upright in your bowl of rice—it is considered to be rude. As for good conversation topics, food and hobbies are safe, while personal questions can upset people unless you know the person quite well. I hope my advice will help you!
Yours,
Yaming
