Jun, Korea(韩国) Posted, 5 days ago | Question:First trip to the USA For my new job,I will travel to the United States next month and meet my American boss.This will be my first trip there.I'm worryed about correct business behavior and manners.My boss invited me to his home for dinner.Do you have any advice? |
Sue, Miami Posted, 3 days ago | Re:First trip to the USA It's a good idea to bring a small gift or something from your country.Don't be surprised if your boss opens the gift right away.In the USA,people often open a gift when they receive it.In Korea,that is not polite,but it's common in the USA. |
Sam, Los Angeles Posted, 2 days ago | Re:First trip to the USA Americans use their hands to eat some kinds of food,such as pizza and fried chicken.Watch your American hosts,and do what they do. |
Kathryn, New York Posted, 12 hours ago | Re:First trip to the USA In Korea and Japan,it's the custom to remove your shoes before entering a house.In the United States,you usually don't take your shoes off.Once I was travelling in Japan and entered a house with my shoes on by mistake.Oops! |
Lee, Korea Posted, 2 hours ago | Re:First trip to the USA Many Americans are very informal(非正式的)at home.One time I went to an American business partner's home for dinner,I was surprised that everyone stood and talked in the kitchen while the husband and wife were cooking dinner.Besides,unlike in Korea,everyone took part in the dinner table conversation,even the man's wife and children. |
Andrew, Washington Posted, 1 hour ago | Re:First trip to the USA I agree with Lee.You probably won't speak about business during dinner,so my advice is to know some topics of conversation.For example,you can talk about travel,food,music,or sports.But you'd better not question about age. |

分析 短文大意:这篇短文中Jun在一个网站的论坛上发帖想要了解美国的商务礼仪,很多人对他的问题进行了回复.从这些回复中我们可以知道,不同的国家有不同的风俗习惯,不同的礼仪.我们在去美国时,应该遵循他们的风俗习惯.
为了我的新工作,下个月我将去美国拜访我的美国老板.这是我第一次去那里旅行.我担心商业行为和举止.我的老板邀请我去他家吃晚饭.你有什么建议吗?
从你的国家里买一些小礼物和其它东西是一个好主意.如果你的老板当着你的面打开礼物时请你不要惊讶.在美国,当他们收到礼物的时候,他们会当面打开的.在韩国这样显得没礼貌,可是在美国这样很平常.
美国人通常用手吃一些事物,如比萨饼和炸鸡.照着你美国主人的做法去做.
在韩国和日本,在进入房间之前脱鞋是礼仪.在美国,你不用进屋时把鞋脱下来.有一次我在日本旅行,没脱鞋就进房间了.哎呀!
许多美国人在家很随便.有一次我去一家美国商务伙伴的家里吃晚餐,我很惊讶的发现,丈夫和妻子在做饭的时候,其它每个人都站在厨房.此外,韩国不同的是,每个人在餐桌上都在交谈,不论是妻子还是孩子.
我同意Lee的说法,在晚餐宴会上请不要谈生意.所以我的建议是谈论一些话题.比如:旅行,食物,音乐和体育.但是不要问年龄.

44.D 细节理解题.根据You probably won't speak about business during dinner.可知,在美国老板的家里吃饭的时候,你不能说一些关于生意的事情.故选D.
