hospitality专四听力原文
[11:24.39]The last reading.
[11:26.27]Hospitality
[11:28.24]An American friend has invited you to visit his family.
[11:32.55]But if you've never been to an American's home before,
[11:35.53]maybe you're not sure what to do.
[11:38.72]Should you take a gift? How should you dress?
[11:41.91]What time should you arrive?
[11:44.03]What should you do when you get there? Glad you asked.
[11:48.59]When you're the guest, you should just make yourself at home.
[11:52.78]That's what hospitality is all about:
[11:55.46]making people feel at home when they're not.
[11:58.47]The question of whether or not to bring a gift
[12:01.08]often makes guests nervous.
unions专四听力原文[12:03.53]Giving your host a gift
[12:04.81]is not just about social manners in some cultures
[12:08.59]and you are even expected to do so.
[12:10.95]But in American culture, a guest is not obligated to bring a present.
[12:15.72]Of course, some people do bring
[12:17.78]a small token of appreciation to their host.
[12:21.26]Appropriate gifts for general occasions might be flowers or candy.
