  Every Chinese-language textbook starts out with the standard phrases for greeting people; but as an American, I always found myself 1 to speak freely when it came to seeing guests off at the door. Just a good-bye would not do, yet that was all I had ever learned from the 2 books. So I would smile and nod, bowing like a Japanese and searching madly for words that would 3 over the visitor's leaving and make them feel they-would be 4 to come again. In my unease, I often hid behind the skirts of my Chinese husband's kindness.

  Then finally, listening to others, I began to pick up the phrases that 5 relationships and sent people off not only successfully but also skillfully.

   6 for the Chinese includes a lot of necessary habitual practice. Although as a 7 , I'm not expected to observe or even know all the rules, I've had to learn the expressions of politeness and 8 at a leaving-taking.

  The Chinese feel they 9 see a guest off to the farthest possible point-down the flight of stairs to the street below or perhaps all the way to the 10 bus stop. I've sometimes waited half an hour or more for my husband to return from seeing a guest off, 11 he's gone to the bus stop and waited for the 12 bus to arrive.

  That's very well, but when I'm the guest being seen off, my protests are always 13 . My hostess or host, or both, insists on 14 me down the stairs and well on

  my way, with my repeating the “Don't 15 to see me off at the every landing”. If I try to go fast to 16 them from following, they are simply out to the discomfort of having to run after me. Better to accept the inevitable(不可避免的).

  Besides, that's going against Chinese 17 , because haste(doing things quickly) is to be avoided. What do you say when you 18 someone? Not “farewell or Godspeed(祝福)”, 19 “Go slowly”. To the Chinese it means “Take care” or “Watch your 20 ”, or some such caution(謹慎), but translated literally(字面意思) it means “Go slowly.”

  Two weeks before Christmas, Mother told me we were going to my grandmother’s house for the holiday.Grandma and Uncle Henry lived on a farm some 15 miles out of town.They had no electricity or running water and   1   what I considered the “good things” in life.They   2   made no plans for Christmas.When Christmas Eve arrived, Mom told me in her best “I-mean-it” voice to   3   all the decorations from our tree.She picked those up, along with all the trimmings(裝飾物)for a complete turkey   4  

  Christmas morning   5   perfectly, with the sun shining brightly across a fresh blanket of snow.  6   I sulked(生氣)silently in the backseat of the car as we made our   7   to grandma’s.This was going to be the   8   Christmas ever!Grandma was   9   to see us as we walked up to her door.“What on earth are you doing here?” She stammered.“We weren’t expecting   10  .It’s Christmas, and I don’t even have a turkey to   11   for you.” “I knew that,” Mom said as we set boxes of goodies on the kitchen table.“That’s   12   we brought one with us.” “We must have a   13  ,” Mom insisted.“  14  , what will we do with all these decorations?” Uncle Henry quickly caught Mom’s spirit.He called me to join him, and we   15   a perfect Christmas tree in the woods.Soon the   16   smelled fresh and piney as we decorated the tree, and the day   17   a festival air.The turkey dinner was very good, too.I was actually beginning to enjoy this unusual Christmas Day!

  Dessert was forgotten   18   Mom came out with the final surprise-a flaming pudding!“Merry Christmas, Mother,” Mom said, “Dear me!” Grandma gasped.“I haven’t seen a flaming pudding since I left England before I was married.” Tears of   19   filled her eyes.

  I could not keep the tears rolling   20   my eyes, either.I knew then that Mom had also given me the best Christmas present ever-she had taught me what a beautiful thing it is to give.
