1．Some people believe that your nationality can influence your personality．This is why you might hear someone saying"She is a typical（典型的） Australian"or"He is so French"．It seems that people from a certain country share certain similar characteristics．
French
French people are often seen as romantic and outgoing people with a great love for life，food and wine．They are good at singing and dancing．
Chinese
Chinese are friendly people who are hard-working．They are polite because they are careful about"saving face"when dealing with other people．
Australians
Australians are merry people who spend a lot of time outdoors．They enjoy a slower life．They laugh a lot but sometimes people think they are loud and rude．
Germans
Germans are often described as being serious and careful．They are hard workers and pay a lot of attention to details．However，sometimes people say Germans have no sense of humour．
All these national types can be true for some people，but very wrong for others．For example，you might meet a German who is a confident singer with a great sense of humour，or an Australian who is shy and quiet．!
