從付小費(fèi)的海關(guān)和付款要求，到入境要求和道路規(guī)則，來(lái)美國(guó)之前要記住以下重要事項(xiàng)。

How to greet

如何問(wèn)候/打招呼

Many people think that Americans are very open about how to communicate so when they meet, they can kiss or rub their cheeks together. Actually, such greetings are only for close relationships, or long-term acquaintances. If it is the first time you meet someone, then people just shake hands. Shaking hands is the most common way of Americans to say hello or goodbye. So do not hesitate to shake a hand to show respect.

許多人認(rèn)為美國(guó)人在如何交流方面很開(kāi)放，所以當(dāng)他們見(jiàn)面時(shí)，他們可以親吻或摩擦臉頰。實(shí)際上，這樣的問(wèn)候只適用于親密的關(guān)系或長(zhǎng)期的熟人。如果這是你第一次見(jiàn)到某人，那么人們只是握手。握手是美國(guó)人說(shuō)你好或再見(jiàn)最常見(jiàn)的方式。所以，不要猶豫，握手表示尊重。

Things not to say in a conversation

談話(huà)中不能說(shuō)的事情

Americans in particular and Western countries in general do not like to be asked about their income, religion, politics, or sexual orientation. In particular, asking a woman about her age will make her unhappy. There are things you should not be curious about. If you don't want the conversation to be too boring, you can ask about their hobbies and discuss a book or dish together, which would be much more fun.

西方國(guó)家一般不喜歡被問(wèn)及他們的收入、宗教、政治或性取向，特別是美國(guó)人。特別是，問(wèn)一個(gè)女人的年齡會(huì)讓她不開(kāi)心。有些事情你不應(yīng)該感到好奇。如果你不想談話(huà)太無(wú)聊，你可以問(wèn)一下他們的愛(ài)好，一起討論一本書(shū)或一道菜，這樣會(huì)有趣得多。

Behaviors in public spaces

公共空間的行為

When in public, thanks and apologies are always present in American conversations, showing their politeness and understanding. You will notice this feature most clearly when taking the bus or in the supermarket, restaurants... Passengers often greet, smile and say thanks to the driver. If they feel they are interfering with someone else's problems, they apologize sincerely. Besides, when going to a supermarket, the person who goes in first often stops to hold the door for the person who comes after, and that person will say thanks.

Tipping

付小費(fèi)

You may have seen US travelers giving a tip to waiters. It is the habit of most Americans because in this country, tipping is like a mandatory task after each use of the service. Usually people will leave about 15% of the bill, sometimes up to 20%, and the waiter is entitled to the amount as a reward for their work.

About pets

關(guān)于寵物

Americans love animals, so you should pay close attention. The way they pet their pets or even others’ will surprise many people a little.

Herds of goats and deer can be found standing and grazing on cliffs near an area full of vehicles without fear of being hunted. Those who commit animal abuse here will be prosecuted.
