Greeting is the first step of cross-cultural communication, and proper manners can help us make a good impression on others. In China, people usually shake hands gently and smile when they meet for the first time. It stands for friendliness and sincerity. In Japan, people bow to greet others. The deeper the bow is, the more respect they show. In most Western countries, people prefer handshakes, hugs or cheek kisses. However, some greeting ways are totally different. In Thailand, people put their hands together in front of their chests to greet others. In New Zealand, local people touch noses to show welcome. These special customs are important parts of local culture. When we travel abroad or communicate with foreign friends, we should learn and follow local greeting manners. Never laugh at different customs. Respecting cultural differences is the key to good cross-cultural communication. 1. What do Chinese people do to greet others for the first time? A. Bow deeply. B.

Good table manners show your respect for others and local culture. In Western countries, there are many strict table rules. People should keep quiet while eating and never talk loudly. They use forks and knives properly and shouldn’t make noise with tableware. It’s polite to finish the food on your plate. If you are full, you can politely refuse more food. In China, we also have traditional table manners. We usually let elders sit first and start eating after elders. It’s rude to stick chopsticks upright in the rice bowl. We shouldn’t point at others with chopsticks either. Although Eastern and Western table manners are different, they all stand for politeness and respect. When we are in different cultural environments, we should follow local table manners. Learning different table manners helps us cross cultural barriers and communicate better with people around the world. 5. What is impolite in Western dining? A. Eating quietly. B.
