Don’t be nervous—Chinese people are very hospitable, and the Zhao family will surely welcome you warmly. Here’s some advice to help you: - Gifts: Bringing a gift is a good idea. You can choose something like local American snacks, a small decorative item, or fruits (but avoid pears, as the pronunciation sounds like “separation” in Chinese). When giving the gift, use both hands—it’s a gesture of respect.- Table Manners: Wait for the elders (especially Grandma Zhao) to start eating before you do. Don’t stick your chopsticks upright in the rice, and don’t make noise when drinking soup. It’s polite to offer to refill others’ drinks or dishes.- Conversation Topics: You can talk about your interests, your experience in Shanghai, or ask about their hobbies and family. Avoid topics like personal income, age, or political issues.Just be friendly and sincere, and you’ll make a great impression. I’m sure you’ll have a wonderful time!Looking forward to your stories after the visit.Cheers,YamingCrossing Cultures ( 59*Project Compare two countries'customs In groups,research the similarities and differences between customs inChina and another country.You can choose some topics from the list below Complete the table with your ideas.· greetings ● visiting others● wearing the right clothes ● table manners· giving and receiving gifts ● good/bad conversation topics60 UNIT 60We researched table manners.In China,it's not polite to talk with your mouth full.In Brazil,it's rude to do that too.In China,we usually use chopsticks.But in Brazil, …Join a different group.Tell them about your research.60 UNIT 604c Rejoin your original group.Share what you learnt in the other group.60 UNIT 60Hello everyone! Our group researched table manners in China and Brazil, and we’d like to share what we found with you.First, let’s talk about a common polite rule. In China, it’s considered very impolite to talk with your mouth full while eating. And guess what? In Brazil, doing that is also seen as rude. This is a nice similarity—both cultures value basic courtesy when it comes to eating and talking.Next, let’s look at the eating tools. In China, we mainly use chopsticks for almost all meals. It’s a traditional tool that’s been used for thousands of years, and there are even special rules for using chopsticks, like not sticking them straight up in the rice. But in Brazil, people use knives and forks for most dishes, just like many Western countries. They rarely use chopsticks unless they’re eating in a Chinese restaurant.There are also some interesting differences in other habits. In China, it’s common for the host to put food on your plate to show hospitality. But in Brazil, people prefer to serve themselves, and it’s not polite for others to put food on their plates without asking. Also, in Brazil, you should finish almost all the food on your plate—leaving a lot of food is thought to mean you don’t like the meal, which would be rude to the cook. In China, though, it’s okay to leave a little food if you’re full, and sometimes it even means you’ve had enough and the host has prepared plenty.Overall, even though China and Brazil have different table manners, they all center around respect and kindness. That’s the most important part of table manners everywhere, right?Thanks for listening! If you have any questions, feel free to ask.1.What customs from around the world have you learnt?2.What are some cultural differences between China and other countries?One cultural difference is that Chinese people use chopsticks to eat while people in Western countries use knives and forks. Another difference is that Chinese people often give red envelopes during festivals, but Western people prefer to give gifts like chocolates or flowers.60 UNIT 60I have learnt that in Japan, people bow to greet each other, and in Western countries, people usually hug or shake hands when meeting. Also, in some Middle Eastern countries, it's polite to take off your shoes before entering someone's home.3.Do you understand adverbial clauses with so...that, unless,and as soon as?Can you use them properly?4.Why do you think it is important to know about cultural differences?60 UNIT 60Yes, I understand them. For example: She was so tired that she fell asleep immediately. I won't go to the party unless I finish my homework. As soon as he arrives, we will start the meeting. I can use these conjunctions to make complex sentences correctly. Knowing about cultural differences helps us avoid misunderstandings when communicating with people from other countries. It also allows us to respect different cultures and build better relationships with people around the world.5.How should we communicate with people from different cultures?60 UNIT 60We should keep an open mind and respect their customs and habits. We can learn about their culture in advance, listen carefully when they speak, and ask politely if we don't understand something. Also, we should be patient and avoid judging their culture by our own standards.Thanks for watching.
