While you're staying with an American family, try to keep your living area neat and
tidy. Your host family will appreciate your consideration. And they may even invite you back! Most Americans consider themselves hospitable people. Folks in the southern United States, in particular, take pride in entertaining guests. In fact,"southern hospitality" has become legendary.
But in all parts of America, people welcome their guests with open arms. So don't be surprised to find the
welcome mat out for you. Just don't forget to wipe your feet.
大多數美國人都認為他們是好客之人。尤其是美國的南方人更以款待客人自豪,事實上,「南方的款待」是人們所津津樂道口口相傳的。
不過在美國各地,人們都展開雙臂歡迎他們的客人,所以當你發現有W E L C O M E字樣的鞋墊為你而鋪時,別驚訝,只是別忘了把你的腳擦乾淨就是了。
