I'd like to tell you some Chinese table manners and customs to help you get used to life here. First, let's talk about table manners. When eating, we use chopsticks instead of knives and forks. It's impolite to stick chopsticks into a bowl of rice or tap bowls with chopsticks. We should wait for the elders to start eating first to show our respect. Also, we usually use public chopsticks and spoons to take food from the public plates. Besides, there are some important customs. When you meet someone for the first time, you can shake hands with them gently. It's rude to ask strangers' private questions, such as their age and income. When visiting friends, it's good to bring a small gift, and you should be on time. During festivals, we often visit relatives and friends and eat traditional food together. I hope these tips will help you. I'm looking forward to meeting you soon and showing you around China. Yours, Yaming 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
