Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily.
Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may begenerous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.
For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!
1.The writer of this passage must be a Chinese.()
2. Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.()
3.From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American friend, we will probably be warmly welcomed at the airport.()
4.The underlined words “generous with our time” in Paragraph 3 probably mean willing to spend time.
5.A suitable title for this passage would probably be “Americans’ and Chinese’s views of friendships”.()
Most Asian American students owe their success to the influence of parents who are determined that their children take full advantage of what the American educational system has to offer. An effective measure is homework. Asian parents spend more time with their children than American parents do, and it helps.
Both explanations for academic success worry Asian Americans because of fears that they feed a typical racial image. Many can remember when Chinese, Japanese and Filipino immigrants were the victims of social isolation. Indeed, it was not until 1952 that laws were laid down giving all Asian immigrants the right to citizenship.

When I was studying English at a training center in Washington D.C. in 2008, I shared a house with two young Americans, Jim and Steve. Jim was studying French and Steve Chinese, both at the Foreign Service Institute. We shared many things in common, but we also thought and acted quite differently. Steve was interested in speaking Chinese. He always tried every opportunity to talk with me with his very English-like pronunciation. I was often touched with his diligence. However, I wanted to practice English with him, too. So we often spoke at the same time in the other’s mother tongue. Jim was fresh from college and the youngest of the three. He was going out all the time. The only time we met was at breakfast. There was a small round table in our kitchen, where we saw around to enjoy our food. Steve had Chinese fast food such as dumplings or noodles, and I ate bread and boiled eggs. But Jim often just drank a cup of tea because he had nothing in his fridge. He was too busy dating pretty French girls to do any shopping. I often offered him some of my food. But Steve told me in his poor Chinese that I didn’t need to do that. He said that it was Jim’s own fault and that it served him right. Although he was learning Chinese, he still had his American sense of values.
Two years later, I returned to China. The three of us still keep in touch. Jim now works in a travel agency in Paris. He got married to one of the pretty girls. He wrote to tell us that he can now enjoy a delicious breakfast with his beautiful wife every morning in their comfortable living room. Steve wants to work in China. And I’m helping him with this. I have introduced him to the dean of the Overseas Section of our university. He is very interested in Steve. He wants to know if Steve can work here teaching the overseas students Chinese. I have sent the message to Steve. I’m sure he’d be very happy to accept the job. However, I hope he could try harder to improve himself. Otherwise, all the overseas students would speak with his terrible pronunciation!

Living without American goods in China？
You could live, but it would not be comfortable, says Zhang Quan, an executive at a Beijing-based securities company.
"It means computers without Microsoft, movies without Hollywood, drinks without Coca-Cola and sport without Nike. Where's the fun？" asks the 30-year-old man who was born in a small town in eastern China.
His first taste of things American was when he ate KFC chicken wings for the first time 15 years ago on a trip to Shanghai.
The American lifestyle, along with innovative products, dominant brands and profitable business models, has firmly seeped into the consciousness of China.
China's exports to the United States may seem huge if the trade balance were the only criterion but American exports have had a pervasive effect on China, too.
US companies are coy when it comes to questions of profit-making in China, typically claiming that investments hero are strategic.
But Bernhard Hartmann, vice-president of well-known US management consultant A. T. Kearney, refers to a recent survey of 1,800 US businesses in China by the American Chamber of Commerce in Beijing, which found that the profit margins for 42 percent were higher than their average worldwide margins.
"It is interesting," says Hartmann.
A story in the Wall Street Journal in February has a more direct answer: It quoted the US Bureau of Economic Analysis as saying that US-affiliated companies in China earned US $3 billion in 2004. Perhaps it does vary from sector to sector, but there is a higher collation by experience than by sector, says Emory Williams, chairman of the American Chamber of Commerce in China.
"The longer companies have been in China, the more profitable they are." Perhaps those not profitable do not last here too long, he says.
Williams adds that companies that have been here six or more years have bigger China margins than their average worldwide margins as they are able to find better ways to manage their business in the China environment.
"Americans firmly believe that a good business must make a real profit," says Bob Lamb, chief marketing officer of China Huatian Investment Co. US companies had a cumulative investment of more than US $50 billion in China by the end of 2005. But "real profit" is also reflected by other means, not only the cash raked in; and Chinese factors help the global performance of American companies.
According to a Pricewaterhouse-Coopers survey which interviewed 65 senior executives of large US manufacturing companies last year, about 36 percent indicated that manufacturing in China would be important to the profitable growth of their company over the next three to five years.
"In the United States, some have suffered lost markets, damage to operating capacity, and reduced profitability. But, these problems are being offset by opportunities abroad, especially in China," says Jorge Milo, leader of PricewaterhouseCoopers' US Industrial Manufacturing Practice.
China's burgeoning consumer market is providing a second wind for a lot of American products, says Mei Xinyu, a researcher with the Chinese Academy of International Trade and Economic Co-operation.
Boeing is a good example. In a bleak global airplane market, China ordered 120 planes from the company last year; and the Chinese delegation to the United States, led by Vice-Premier Wu Yi, signed an agreement to buy 80 Boeing 737 planes last week. Many American brands were drowning and looking for a lifeline, and China came along, Mei says.

Of the world's 100 most valuable brands, 62 are American, according to Interbrand, a consulting group that annually evaluates products.
