The Chinese also don't use a lot oI hand gestures when speaking. They Iind them very distracting
when used by others, so they should be avoided as much as possible

f someone gives you a present, it's best not to open it in front of them.
Remember when entering any home in China that you need to always take off your shoes.
Believe it or not, finishing everything on your plate is NOT a good thing in China. f you eat all of your
meal, the Chinese will assume you did not receive enough food and are still hungry.
