      Dear Betty,

    　　My roommate’s family wants me to celebrate Thanksgiving Day with them in their home. I accepted the invitation, and I’m excited about going, but I’m a little nervous about it, too. The social customs in my country are different from those here, so I’m a little worried about making mistakes.

    　　Should I bring a gift, such as candy or flowers? Should I arrive on time or a little late?  At the dinner table, how can I know which fork or knife to use? How can I let the family know that I’m thankful for their kindness?

    Yours,

    Knowing Nothing

    Dear Knowing Nothing,

    　　It’s a good idea to bring a gift when you go to a dinner party. Flowers are always welcome, or you can bring a bottle of wine if you know the family drink it.

    　　You should arrive on time or five to ten minutes late. Don’t get there early. If you are going to be more than fifteen minutes late, you should call and tell them.

    　　Try to relax at the dinner table. If you don’t know how to use the right fork, knife or spoon, just watch the other guests, and follow them. If you still have no idea of what to do, don’t be shy about asking the person next to you; it’s better to ask them than to be silently uncomfortable and nervous.

    　　If you like the food, say so. Of course, you’ll thank the host and hostess for the meal and for their kindness. It’s also a good idea to send a card to thank them the day after.

    Yours,

    Betty

    　　Even nowadays there’s a lot of misunderstandings between nationalities．

    　　Let’s have a look at what the following people have to say．

    　　Maria Conti：I find the English people insincere(虚伪的), cold and unfriendly．They keep saying “Thank you”, “I’m sorry”, even when they don’t know each other．They are even polite to their own relatives!Except for helping you find your way in the streets, they aren’t really friendly and never invite you to their house．

    　　Giannis Sinios：On the contrary I found them both broad-minded and friendly．I was invited to people’s houses and they all showed great interest in my ideas, Greek life and people．In England I learned that it was possible to be warm, friendly and polite at the same time．

    　　Judy Brown：I lived in both Italy and Greece for a few years．At first there were a few misunderstandings between my foreign friends and myself．For example, I once gave a Greek friend a present for her birthday．I was rather sorry that she didn’t unwrap it immediately．What’s more, she even didn’t thank me until I asked her if she liked it!I’ve learned from different experiences that a lot of foreigners find our attitude to what we English people call politeness rather insincere．They feel that politeness isn’t necessary between friends．
