THINK ABOUT IT
1.In your opinion,what are good manners?
2.Do you think cultures shape manners?
My name is Wu Zhou.I have lived in Canada for twenty-three years.In Canada,I call myself Joe Wu.Joe is an English name that sounds like Zhou.
_Though_ I have lived here for a long time,I still don't feel Canadian.This is probably because North American manners and Chinese manners are so different.
In China,being _modest____ is a _virtue___.If someone _praises___ you and says that your English is excellent,you should be modest and say,"No,no.My English is still poor."But in North America,this is usually a sign of being weak and not confident.You should just say,"Thank you."
In Canada,people only ask children about thier age.It's not polite to ask an adult's age.They think it is _private____.But this is common in many places in China.
In both China and North America,it is polite to offer an _elderly__ person a seat on the bus.In North America,however,an elderly person may feel embarrassed about being offered a seat.
When Chinese people eat out in restaurants,they may _take turns__ paying for the meal.In Canada,you pass food to _guests___,but you don't usually put food on their plates.
In China,people seldom give _extra___ money to _waiters____,waitresses,taxi drivers or hotel workers.In North America,this is always done.It is called "_tipping___".
It's interesting to experience two different cultures.I think understanding cultural differences really helps us to understand each other,live together and work together.
