Different MannersPPT，第二部分内容：课文呈现

THINK ABOUT IT

•In your opinion，what are good manners?

•Do you think cultures shape manners?

My name is Wu Zhou. I have lived in Canada for twenty­three years. In Canada，I call myself Joe Wu. Joe is an English name that sounds❶like Zhou.

Though I have lived here for a long time，I still don’t feel Canadian. This is probably because North American manners and Chinese manners are so different.　

In China，being modest is a virtue. If someone praises❷ you and says that your English is excellent，you should be modest and say，“No，no. My English is still poor.” But in North America，this is usually a sign of being weak and not confident. You should just say，“Thank you.”

In Canada，people only ask children about their age. It’s not polite to ask an adult’s age. They think it is private. But this is common in many places in China.

In both China and North America，it is polite to offer an elderly person a seat on the bus. In North America，however，

an elderly person may feel embarrassed about being offered a seat.
