The main purpose of this greeting is to 1 a good relationship between the people 2 , and each language usually has 3 set phrases that can be used for this purpose. Sometimes, though, there can be considerable 4 in the type of phrases that can be used, and 5 misunderstandings can easily arise. The following is a true story. A young British woman went to Hong Kong to work, and at the 6 of her arrival she knew 7 about the Chinese culture or language. 8 her way to school one day, she went to the bank to get some money.
