When two people meet, there are a lot of ways of greeting. The ways of greeting are not always the same in different countries.
In America, two people usually greet each other with a handshake. It is a way to show respect(尊重) to the other person. Athletes from opposite teams shake hands before a game for the same reason. However, most Americans don't shake hands when they meet people they already know well. When American friends meet each other, they might only wave(挥手), or maybe just nod(点头) their heads.
In New Zealand, there is a special way of greeting called \the greeting, two people press their noses and foreheads(前额) together and close their eyes. This is an old tradition that comes from the Maori, who were the first people to live in New Zealand. Even today, many New Zealanders still press their foreheads when they meet.
Kissing is sometimes used as a way to greet someone. In some countries, important people used to wear special rings. It was the custom for visitors to kiss these rings when they came for a meeting. In France, when people meet, they sometimes kiss each other on the face.
In Japan, people bow to each other every time they meet. Even family members bow to each other. People decide how low to bow depending on how respected the other person is.

Don't circle your plate with your arms. If you do so, you will become the focus(焦点) of the table. Everyone would wonder, \there anything wrong with the food?\the food or something like that.
Don't push the plate back when finished, leave it where it was. Do you want to let the hostess know that you've just done a labor?
Don't lean(倚靠) back and say \fork and knife across the plate. That's all.
Don't cut up everything before you start to eat. Cut only one or two bites(块) at a time.
Never take a huge mouthful of anything. Do you want to show how hungry you are? Don't do that. It's not so good.
It's never good to reach across the table for anything. If the thing you want is not at hand, simply ask the nearest person for help, like \could you pass me the dish?\

Knowing how to ask for information and help politely is important.
In English, \
me where the restrooms are?\请求) —both are correct English, but the first could sound rude. It's important to use correct language, but sometimes this alone is not enough—we need to learn how to be polite when we make requests.
In English, just like in Chinese, we change the way we speak when talking with different people. The expressions you use might depend on whom you are speaking to or how well you know them. If you say to your teacher, \me, Mr. West. Do you know where my book is?\much more polite. On the other hand, it might be alright to say \book?\
And you would not usually say \lend me your pen.\A very direct order like this can sound rude in English. Usually in English polite questions are longer and include extra(附加的) language, such as \you please...?\you please lend me your pen?\first say \you but…\
It might seem that speaking politely is more difficult than being direct, and in a way this may be true.
78. When we make requests, we need to speak in a way. A. polite B. careful C. different D. direct 79. You should say \ A. Which is the way to the zoo? B. How can I get to the zoo?
