五、书面表达
Dear Tom,
I’m very glad to hear that you will come to China to study soon. Since you know little about Chinese manners, I’d like to give you some advice that will help you a lot.
When you meet people for the first time, you can shake hands, nod or smile, which is the most common way to greet others in China. While you are eating at table, you shouldn’t talk loudly, and you mustn’t stick your chopsticks into the rice because it is considered unlucky. If you have meals with others, you’d better use serving chopsticks.
Besides, you shouldn’t ask private questions such as age or salary, since they will make people feel uncomfortable. As long as you learn about cultural differences and respect local customs, you will certainly get along well with others.
Yours,
Li Hua
