I have learnt a lot about Chinese life and culture while teaching in China and found them very interesting．

First, family life is quite 　36 in China from that in the USA． In the USA, many young people 　37 home after they finish their education and start working． However, in China, it is 　38 for people to live with their parents until they get married． 　39 , many of my Chinese friends told me that their 40 lived with them and helped take care of them when they were children． It seems that Americans think independence is more important 　41 the Chinese think family relationships are more important．

Bargaining is another 　42 that I have tried to learn． In the USA, prices are 　43 and you can’t ask for a lower price． However in some small Chinese stores and tourist places, you are 　44 to bargain． My Chinese friends taught me to ask for 40 percent or 50 percent 　45 the original price． If the salesperson doesn’t agree to my price, I should 　46 to leave and he might let me come back and sell me the item． It is a skill that you have to 　47 if you live in China．

Tipping hasn’t been easier to 　48 ． In the USA, many people in the service 　49 want to get 　50 money for serving customers． Tipping is not a part of Chinese culture． 　51 I tried to tip a taxi driver． He looked a little 　52 and refused to take the money．

In dinners, perhaps what surprises an American visitor most is that some of the Chinese hosts like to put food into the plates of their 　53 ． Actually, this is a 　54 of true friendship and politeness． My Chinese friend told me if I didn’t want to eat it, I should just 　55 the food in the plate．
