入乡随俗"（When in Rome, do as the Romans do） 这句古老的谚语，恰恰体现了跨文化交流的核心智慧——在尊重当地文化的前提下，灵活调整自己的行为，以建立和谐有效的沟通。
Nowadays, more and more people travel abroad or make foreign friends. It is necessary for us to learn different cultural manners and customs. Good manners help us get on well with people from different countries.
In China, people usually shake hands and smile when they meet others. We often use chopsticks while eating. It’s polite to wait for elders to start eating first. But in many Western countries, people prefer to hug or kiss each other to show warmth. They mainly use forks and knives at meals. They don’t mind talking happily during dinners.
Also, there are some social rules we need to know. We should avoid asking foreigners personal questions, such as their age, income or family problems. Unless we are quite close friends, these questions will make them feel uncomfortable. As soon as we know more cultural differences, we will behave properly in cross-cultural communication.
We should remember: When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Respecting different cultures is the best way to communicate with the world.
