Listening
1. Have the students listen to the material once with their books closed. Then Open the books and listen to it for a second time. Give them some time to fill in the blanks.
2. Check their answers with whole class.
Speaking
1. For this exercise, the students have to imagine they are at a party. There are a lot of people and all the chairs are taken or covered with coats or bags while all the tables are full of glasses and snacks. Everybody is in good mood, so nobody will get angry about anything, but of course people politely talk to each other and make excuses when troubling others.
2. Go through the useful expressions with the students and ask them to use them in their following dialogues.
3. Ask the students to make their dialogues in the three situations in the book.
4. Sample dialogues:
(1) A: Are you going to introduce me to him?
B: Oh, Forgive me. I didn’t know you hadn’t met before. Donna, this is Alex, my friend.
A: Hi, Alex. Nice to meet you.
(2) A: Are theses seats free?
B: No, I’m sorry. My friend is sitting here. That’s OK.
(3). A: Oh, was that your glass?
B: As a matter of fact, yes.
A: I’m terribly sorry. Can I offer you something else?
B: That would be nice, thanks. I’ll have another Whisky.
5. Task: Think of some other situations in which you have to apologize to another person.
6. Workbook: Talking Situation 1
Sample dialogue:
Girl: In foreign countries men should always help women, for example: pay the bill or film tickets. That sounds good to me.
Boy: Yes. Other examples are: open the door for women, help them put on their coat, carry heavy bags or luggage, help them sit down at the table…Men take care of women because…
Girl: Men don’t need to do that. It just gives you the idea that girls and women cannot open the door themselves. It puts women in a bad position. Men and women should be equal. Women can…
Boy: Yeah, they should carry their own bags and pay my ticket to the cinema…
Girl: Yes. Sometimes, yes. And men should help cook, do the housework and…
Situation 2
Sample dialogue:
A: Do you see that mean has taken off his shirt? It’s really uncivilized. Do you think so?
B: I agree. It’s not polite for men to take their shirts. But the weather in China is very hot in summer. Some people have an air conditioner in their house, but many people don’t have. They do so because they can’t bear the heat.
A: What do you think a foreigner will think when he sees such a situation?
B: We don’t need to think about it. People from different countries have different lifestyles.
A: That’s true. But China is becoming a modern country; we need modern ways of life and we must learn to be more civilized.
Situation 3
Sample:
A: I think it’s a good idea to teach the newcomer about the customs and manners in China. In that way life will become easier for everybody.
B: Yes. And if Chinese people in foreign countries must go to school, they should also learn about their customs.
C: Well, in my experience, many foreigners are very interested in Chinese life and manners. I don’t think we have to teach our customs.
A: Yes, but sometimes there are some misunderstandings. For example: when we meet with friends, we usually say, “Where are you going?” However, foreigners will think that we are curious about their private things.
B: You are right. It’s really necessary for us to know something about other countries’ culture.
Pre-reading.
1.Get the students to discuss what is the proper etiquette in these situations in the book. Write down their answers and discuss in class.
2.Suggested answers:
Rules for being polite in Chinese culture:
At a dinner party
Try to talk to people sitting beside you.; smile; Eat with chopsticks; Stand when others make a toast; Don’t stand up to get the food, wait for others to get the food for you; Don’t keep your hand under the table; Don’t ask for more even you are not full.
Greeting you teacher:
Stand straight and say “Lao shi hao!”; You don’t have to take your hat off, but you must get off your bike when greeting.
Receiving a birthday present
When receiving a birthday gift, you say “Tank you” or “ I’m very happy you have come, but you shouldn’t have bought a present”. Usually you don’t open it until the guests are away. It’s the usual practice to invite all the guests to the dinner party. Food, such as noodles, peaches, is served as they symbolize longevity.
Paying a visit to a friend’s house:
Make an appointment before you go. Bring a small gift. If there are old people or children in the family, you should take them into consideration when preparing gifts. Be punctual(准时) and make sure you are decently(得体的) dressed. Greet the family members in the order of age. Ask if you should take your shoes off before you walk onto the house. Don’t seat yourself before the hoist tells where to sit. Don’t walk around the house to look at all the decorations or furniture, unless you are invited to do so. It is impolite to eat up all the food that the host brings up. Decide when you leave, but don’t stay too long. When leaving, invite the host family to pay a visit to your house.
3. Encourage the students to describe the rules for being polite in western countries:
Suggested answers:
At a dinner party:
Eat with knives and forks. Don’t smoke cigarettes during the diner. Be lively and smile, but don’t shout or laugh loudly at the table. Don’t talk with your mouth full of food.
Greeting your teacher:
Smile and say “good morning” or “good afternoon”.
Receiving a birthday present:
First say you were not expecting anything and that the gift wasn’t needed. Then say something about the beautiful wrapping paper. Open it immediately. Say that it is very beautiful and just what you wanted. Say that they shouldn’t have given it to you. Thank them a lot and kiss your friend.
Paying a visit to a friend’s house.
Bring a gift, for example flowers or a bottle of wine. Do not immediately walk into the house but wait till your friend tells you to make yourself at home. You don’t need to take off your shoes unless you are told to. Say something nice about the house (decoration, furniture or paintings). You may look at the book case but don’t open any cupboard or drawers. If your friend is cooking for you, walk to the kitchen and offer your help.

When arranging the seating for a dinner party for a number of guests, it is often best to try to arrange the seating so that it alternates(交叉) between sexes for a good mix. Splitting couples is a good way to ensure that conversations will flow as people get to meet each other.
(B)
If there is a fish course, it will probably follow the soup. There may be a special fork for the fish, or it may be similar to the meat fork. Often it is smaller.
(C)
It is impolite for you to leave the table during a meal, or before the hostess gives the signal at the end. When the hostess indicates that the dinner is over, she will start to rise from her seat and all the guests can rise from theirs at the same time.
Integrating skills
Thank you letters are short letters of at most three paragraphs that we need to express our gratitude to people. They can be about various kinds of topics and reasons why we want to thank them.
Structure of a thank you letter:
Paragraph 1 Thank the people for what they did for you. Give some details about what you liked.
Paragraph 2 Tell the people something about yourself and things that you are doing now.
Paragraph 3 Ask the people for some details about themselves and what they are doing now. Close the letter by repeating your thanks.
Sample
Thank a teacher for his / her help November 15th
Dear Mr Wang,
I am sending you this card to thank you for all the extra time you spent to help me catch up with my lessons after my illness. My parents and I are grateful for the evenings after school that you helped me with my maths. Without your help it would have been very difficult to catch up and get good marks in the mid-term exam.
At this moment I am very busy with my studies. Thanks to your help, I could not only catch up with maths, but I now also more enjoy the other subjects that were very rough for me before, such as chemistry and physics. I really enjoy going to school now.
How about you? I hope your mother is feeling better. I heard you spent a month in your hometown to take care of her. But if you helped her as well as you helped me with my maths, then I am sure she must be feeling much better.
Thank you again for all your time, and I wish you all the best.
Yours,
William Chen
Thank your parents for their loving support December 18th
Dear Mom and Dad,
Yesterday I received your long letter of November 28th. I was looking forward to that letter and want to thank you for it. But not only should I thank you for your letter, I feel you are the most wonderful parents in the world. If I look around me, I see some students hardly ever hear from their parents. And when I think about you, my heart feels with warmth. So I want to thank you for all your loving support.
Your letters always make me very happy especially when photos are enclosed. I can only send you a short letter today and promise I will write more later this week. At this moment we are very busy preparing for the term exam.
So, how are things at home? I hope Mother’s work in the office is going well. Last time you wrote about the new project that would start. I think working on that job must be very exciting. I suppose everybody already starts thinking about The Spring Festival. Of course, I will be home for that.
Well, thank you again and all the best for the folks back home.
Love,
Emily Zhang
Thank your best friend for being a good friend October 18th
Dear Lewis,
I am writing you this short letter to thank you for being such a great pal. We have known each other for such a long time, and been friends for many years. I know I can count on you, no matter what happens. I think that is really something.
I am in Senior One now, and still have a few more years to go. My studies are getting fine. I actually like many of our books much better than what we studied at the junior high school. My results are also very good. I may even think about going to university, after finishing high school.
What have you been doing lately? Is everything OK with you? Write me sometimes when you have time. You can also send me an email if you like. My new email address is xstian 1989@sohu.com.cn.
Thanks again and I hope to hear from you soon.
Best wishes,
Hunt Tian
Thank your classmate for a birthday present
October 27th
Dear Jennifer,
Thank you very much for the wonderful present you gave me for my birthday last Wednesday. It was nice of you to come and see me, and I was so surprised that you had bought me a present. When I opened it I saw it was just the kind of thing I had always wanted. I like the colors and the shape of the frame. I will probably hang it in my bedroom, or on the empty wall near the bookcase in the living room. It was so nice of you.
Actually, all afternoon and evening friends called me or made visits. It was a very busy day. These days of the weekend give me some time to write some short letters, and enjoy my presents and start reading the book that my neighbor gave me.
How about you? Have you finished the book report for Mr Gao? You told me last week you had started piano lessons. I would like to come over some time and hear you play.
Well, I don’t want to make it too long today. I have to run to the post office and get this letter posted.
Thanks again for the present and hope to see you soon.
Love,
Kathy Huang

Answers to Ex 1:
1. If you are visiting a country in the Middle East/ an Arab country, you should know that some customs are quite different from ours. First, when you meet your friend at the airport, you can greet each other by embracing and kissing each other. When your host invites you to his house, you should be careful not to say that you like a painting or other things in their house very much. If you do that, your Arab friend will have the feeling that he should give it to you.
2. Many counties have rules about hands. Westerners shake hands when they meet. Americans and Europeans want to give, and get, a strong handshake. Your hand should be strong and not soft or wet. People in Thailand put their hands together and bow their head when they greet you. Finally, with Indians you should never use your left hand for greeting, eating, drinking or smoking.
3. In many Western countries you can blow your nose at the table (if you turn away from the table), but perhaps it is better to excuse yourself for a moment and go to the bathroom to blow your nose and wash your hands.
4.
Bad manners in Western countries Bad manners in China
Asking women how old they are
Asking people how much money they make
Talking with your mouth full of food
… Blowing your nose at the table
Talking loudly in public places
Pushing to get on the bus first

Sample
18 October, 2003
Dear Xiaofeng,
I am sending you this short thank-you letter with a small present, which I hope you will like. I want to thank you again for the way in which you have helped my father last Sunday, when he broke his legs on the stairs at People’s Square.
My father told me that he had fallen and hurt his leg badly. He could not get up or walk, and his leg was very painful. He told me that you saw what had happened and came to help him. You helped my father to get a taxi, and took him to the nearest hospital. When the doctor told you my father’s leg was broken, you phoned my mother and told her what had happened. My mother thanked you when she met you at the hospital, but she was too worried about my father. My father is already much better now. He has to stay in hospital for another week, but next week he may come home.
How are you doing at school? We heard that you are a very good student. Your parents should be proud, because what you did for my father shows that you also have a good heart. Once more, my parents and I want to express our gratitude for all you have done for our family.
Please accept my sincerest thanks.
Yours truly,
Ma Hui
