  32. Jin Li: When I first arrived in San Francisco, I had a difficult time understanding certain aspects of the American way of doing things. Once I went to visit an American friend. After a splendid evening, I finished my cocoa and got ready to leave. As soon as we said goodbye, my friend went back to his room closing the door behind him.It made me feel that I was not really welcome.

  33. Wang Lei: I’ve always been outgoing but since an embarrassing experience in a New York restaurant I’ve been much more cautious. I was enjoying my dessert and talking to my American friend Janice at the table when I noticed people staring at us. I asked Janice what was wrong and she told me that I was talking too loudly. She said that to some American people, it sounded like I was shouting. I whispered for the rest of the evening.

  34. Martin:What did I learn about Chinese customs from my exciting exchange to China? Well, the Chinese are extremely welcoming. One evening, I was invited to a Chinese family dinner. I had a good appetite and the food was yummy. But my host kept on putting more food in my rice bowl.They didn’t seem to hear me saying ‘No, thank you’ in my poor spoken Chinese. This was a very special experience I had in China. In my culture, you don’t get more food if you don’t ask for more.

  35. Tom: I had a similar experience last time I visited China. The Chinese are the friendliest people I have ever met. After my visit to a Chinese family, my friend’s grandfather wouldn’t let me go to the bus station alone. He insisted on walking me to the station to see me off. I kept saying that I knew the way myself , but it just did not work. What he did was amazing, this will not happen in many other cultures, I guess.

  36. Tina: Chinese people are very modest too. Last time, when I visited China, we saw the tour guide wearing a very pretty fur coat on the day we left. I told her the coat suited her, but she looked very embarrassed, saying that it was a cheap one she had bought a long time ago. I was surprised. In my culture, when people say nice things about us, we feel very happy and say thanks.

  37. Read carefully and fill in the table. What should we do on these situations?

  38. After saying goodbye, the host goes back and closes the door at once. The host will see off the guest.

  39. Speak quietly in a restaurant. If you don’t ask for more food, you don’t get more. It is common to speak loudly in a restaurant. The host keeps on putting more food in the guest’s bowl.
