Hi Yaming ,
One more week to go! I’m so excited to see you. I’ll meet the Zhaos as soon as I land in shanghai. I’ll be staying with their family for two weeks, and I’m a little nervous! Mr and Mrs Zhao are both in their forties, and they have a son who is younger than me. His grandmother also lives with them.
Could you give me some advice Should I bring a gift In America, we usually bring the host something small, like food. Is that a good idea Also, what are the right table manners What are some good conversation topics in China Is there anything else I should know I’m worried about doing something silly. It could give people the false impression that I’m a rude person. First impressions are so important that I don’t want to say or do anything wrong!
I’m looking forward to hearing from you soon!
Cheers,
Tina

Imagine you are Yaming, Write an email to Tina to give some advice.
Dear Tina,
It’s so great to hear from you! You asked me about Chinese customs. Here are my suggestions.
You can just nod and say “ Ni hao ” when you meet someone. You should bring some small gifts when visiting a friend, such as fruit or flowers. But clocks are not good gifts. During the meal, never stick chopsticks upright in your bowl of rice—it is considered to be rude. As for good conversation topics, food and hobbies are safe, while personal questions can upset people unless you know the person quite well. I hope my advice will help you!
Yours,
Yaming
