Dear Mike,
I’mglad to hear from you. It’s true that Chinese customsare different from yours in America. Let me give you some suggestionsabout Chinese customs.
When you meet othersfor the first time,you are supposed to shake hands instead of kissing. It’spolite to hand out your right hand and shake it with another person’s right hand. When you are eating at the table, you should letthe old start first. When you are eating with your chopsticks, it’s impolite to point at other people with your chopsticks. It’s also impolite to stick your chopsticks into the bowl of rice andleave them there.
When you go out withpeople, you are supposed to tell the hostess where you are going, who you aregoing with and when you will come back. In our culture, the hostess willworry about the safety of her guests, so it’s polite tolet her know these things.
Have a safe trip andI look forward to meeting you soon!
Yours,
Zhang Hua

Protect Traditional Chinese Culture
The protection ofnational and folk culture is of great significance to Chinese culturaldiversity and also to the harmonious development between local economic andsocial development. It is reported that the Guangdong government pays specialattention to protecting Chaoju(潮剧)， a localdrama born in Chaozhou in the eastern Guangdong province.
In my opinion, somemeasures should be taken to protect traditional culture effectively. To startwith, we should make a law to regulate the society’sperformance. Besides, we should draw more people’sattention to it, for the more they know about the importance of cultureprotection, the stronger support we can get from the public.
In a word, it ishigh time for us to treasure and develop our own valuable culture.
