(二)单元话题范文背记
A
假如你是张敏，你的美国笔友 Tina发来一封电子邮件，说她下周要来中国，但对中国的风俗习惯、见面礼仪及餐桌礼仪了解很少，于是向你寻求帮助，请你给她回一封100词左右的电子邮件，告诉她一些中国的风俗习惯、见面礼仪及餐桌礼仪的情况。
内容包括：
1.中国人第一次见面时握手；
2.去别人家做客的注意事项：送礼物不能送钟，也不能送菊花(chrysanthemums)；
3.餐桌礼仪的不同：我们用筷子就餐；就餐时不能用筷子指着别人；就餐时不可以多说话等。
Dear Tina,
I am so happy to know that you are coming to China next week. You ask me something aboutChinese customs. Let me tell you some of them.
In China, people shake hands when they meet for the first time. If you are going to visit their homes, you should remember some customs. You can bring some fruits. But don't bring a clock as a gift. It sounds like“death” in Chinese. Flowers are a good choice except chrysanthemums,because they are used for the people passed away. When you are at the dinner table, try to use chopsticks. Don't point at others with the chopsticks or stick them into the rice. You'd better not talk when your mouth is full.
I hope these suggestions are helpful to you. Looking forward to your arrival.
Yours,
Zhang Min

Secondly,in China, it is important to wait for the eldest family member or the host to start before you eat.Usually, the eldest begin to eat first. Thirdly, don't leave at once after dinner. You can have some tea and chat with people.
These table manners are really different from those in the USA, aren't they If you don't know how to behave at the table, you can ask the people next to you. Or you can just see what the others do and follow them. I'm sure nobody will laugh at you and you will have a good time here inChina.
I am looking forward to seeing you soon.
Yours,
Li Hua
