It's so great to hear from you. Life in Paris is pretty good! I was a little lonely at first, but I'm starting to make some friends. They helped me to learn more about the customs here after I had some embarrassing experiences at a party last month. I'd like to share some tips with you.
1. How did Nancy feel at the beginning of her stay in
France
She felt a little lonely at the beginning of her stay in France.
2. What were the three
mistakes that Nancy
made at the party
① arrived 10 minutes
early;
First, you shouldn't arrive early to a party. It's normal to be on time or a few minutes late, but arriving early can cause problems. Once, I arrived 10 minutes early to a party. Usually that's the polite thing to do, right But my friend looked so surprised to see me! He was still getting everything ready.
Second, it's important to bring a gift when you visit someone. When I attended my friend's party, I didn't bring anything. It wasn't his birthday, but everyone else brought gifts like chocolates or flowers to thank him for the party. I was so embarrassed!
Third, you should always try to dress for the occasion. At that party it was surprising to see how nicely everyone was dressed. It was summer, so I was just wearing a simple blouse and shorts. But everyone else was dressed so well that I felt silly.
② didn't bring a gift;
③ didn't dress for the
occasion.

Fourth, it's best not to ask personal questions unless you know the person quite well. Many French people are quite private. They don't
like it when others ask them about their age, their family, whether
they are married, or how much money they make. Food and culture,
however, are safe conversation topics.
3. What should you not ask about when talking to
someone in France
You should not ask about someone's age, family, whether they are married, or how much money they make when talking to someone in France.
4. Why does Nancy ask Diana to speak in French
whenever possible
Because using French helps develop closer relationships with people in France, and it is very important in their culture. Even a simple “merci” can go a long way.
Last but not least, make sure you use French whenever you can. Lots of people speak English here, but you can develop closer relationships with them if you use French. It's very important in their culture. I found that even a simple “merci” goes a long way! You'll see what I mean as soon as you get here!
5. What can you learn from Nancy's
experiences of being in a new country
We can learn that when in a new country, it's important to learn about the local customs and manners to avoid misunderstandings.
Read for structure
Read the tips again and match them with the five parts.
