Greetings around
the world

In international business, it’s important to know how


to greet people from different countries. In most business
situations, shaking hands is the usual greeting. But people
in different places shake hands in different ways.
In France, for example, handshakes are very quick. In
Brazil, people take more time to shake hands. In both
Brazil and France, it’s common to shake hands with
people when you arrive and leave. People do not usually
shake hands as often in the U.S.
In many parts of Asia, handshakes are gentle and can
last 10 seconds. Handshakes are common in China, but it
is also appropriate to nod your head when you meet a
person for the first time. In the U.S., handshakes aren’t
usually that long.
Here are some things to remember when you shake
hands in English-speaking countries:
• Look at the person’s eyes and smile.
• Shake hands firmly, but not too hard.
• Shake hands for only 2 or 3 seconds.

Hello, Friend

Hi. This is me, Nina Herrera. I'm 10 years old. My birthday


is on July 14th. My family is from Mexico, but I am from United
States. So, we speak English and Spanish. I live in a small
town with my mom and dad. I study in a big school near
home. All teachers are really nice people and help you in
everything you need. My favorite subject is Science. I love it. I
like animals and plants. I'm definitely an explorer.
My mom and my dad are teachers, too. My mom teaches
Math, so she is good at numbers. My dad teaches Spanish, so
he is good at reading and writing. They are very special to
me. We go every weekend to the park and play sports.
So, Kim, Tell me please Where are you from? How old are
you? What's your favorite subject? Are your parents teachers,
too?
Bye.
