anners are very iportant for our daily life. There are any different custos and habits aong different countries. We ust find out and follow their custos so that they will not think us ill-annered. Here are exaples of the things that a person with good education(教育) does or does not do. A person with good anners is always popular, but it is troublesoe to a person with bad atters.
If you visit a Chinese faily, you should knock at the door first. When the door opens, you will not ove before the host says "Coe in, please." After you enter the roo, you would not sit down until the host asks you to take a seat. When a cup of tea is put on the tea table before you or sent to your hand, you should say "Thank you" and receive it with two hands, not one hand, or they will think you are ill-annered. Before entering a house in Japan, it is good anners to take off your shoes. In European countries, even though shoes soeties becoe very dirty, this is not done. In a alay house, a visitor never finishes the food on the table. He leaves a little to show that he has had enough. In England, a visitor always finishes the drink or the food to show that he has enjoyed it. The host will be pleased with that.
You have to give your present in public in the iddle East to show it is not a bribe(贿赂). But it's good anners to give your present in private in Asia. You ustn't give knives in Latin Aerica because it suggests that you want to cut off the relationship(关系). You ustn't give your food or drink to Arabia because it suggests that you think your host isn't offering you enough to eat and drink.
"Coe any tie" eans "I want you to visit e" in India. If you don't suggest a tie at once, the India will think you are refusing(拒绝) the invitation. But if an English people says "Coe any tie", they will think you are ipolite if you start fixing(确定) a date.
