广东省教育厅教研室
1. In the United States, it is common for a man to shake hands with another man when they are being introduced or when greeting a male friend. Women tend to do less hand-shaking.
2. In some cultures it is OK to call a person by his or her last name only. In fact, it is the usual way to address people in some places. In the United States, however, people don't generally use a person last name unless they add a title such as Ms, Miss, Mrs or Mr.
3. Unlike Chinese names, English names are listed with the given name first and the family name or surname second. Many people have two given names, e. g. Sarah Ann Smith. The second name is called the middle name and has no real significance. English family names are inherited form the father and a women family name changes to the family name of her husband when she marries. Most Chinese women do not necessarily take their husband's family name when they marry. Many English names have an old meaning, but the meaning is not usually a consideration when choosing a name, the way the name sounds is more important.
4. Telephone numbers can be written in several ways. In the United States, telephone numbers include a 3-digit area code followed by a 7-digit number.
(760) 431-2022
(Area Code) Telephone number
Because telephone numbers can be difficult to remember, people sometimes break them up when they say them or write them down. It is quite common for people to write a number as 431-2022 rather than 4312022.
