A:Have you everbeen to a different country?
B :Yes,I havebeen to Australia before.
A:Did you enjoyliving there?
B :Sure!Thatwas a great place to be,but there is some difference in Australian culturefrom Chinese one.
A:What do youmean by “culture difference”?
B:Hmm,I meanthat when I say or do something in China,and the Chinese would understandingme totally and easily; they would not misunderstand me either.
A:Is there anexample?
B :Forexample,when I was ordering food in China,I would just call out to the waiterin a loud voice,so that he can hear me.And also we Chinese enjoy talking loudlyand happily while eating our foods.
A:I think it is not accepted in Australia at all.In Australia,if you shout or get too noisy while dinning,maybe you will be despised or kicked out of the restaurant… That is a horrible thing to experience.
B :Luckily I was only reminded by the Australian waiters to keep quiet,instead of being kicked out.
A:Poor boy,so next time you visit an Australian or American restaurant,you know what to do,right?
B :Yes!
A:Anyway,it is good to know a different culture.
B :of course it is!
A:And we also need to be frank and honest to ourselves and others,so even the culture difference won’t stop us from making new foreign friends.
B :You are definitely right!
