At school, we learned that How do you do? and How are you? are standard ways to say hello when 1 others. But do you know how to respond (回答) them? Do native (本土的) speakers still use them today? As we learned, How do you do? is for greeting someone we meet for the 2 time. And it can be responded with the same 3 . How are you? is often used to greet someone we are 4 with. It usually follows with a response of I39。m fine, and you? or I39。m well, and you?. But English is a casual (隨意的) language. The formal How do you do? is seldom said by native speakers. It is 5 oldfashioned. Yet they greet each other in many other 6 . You may hear a 7 between British people: You all right? Yeah, you? I39。m good. Any plans for the weekend? or How39。s it going? Yeah, fine, and you? These ways of greeting are 8 for young people to say hello to friends. Americans like saying What39。s up? or What39。s good? to friends. Don39。t be confused (混亂的). It doesn39。t mean What39。s wrong?. It is just one way of saying 9 And people usually respond Not much. 10 Nothing.. Hey, man. is also popular. But it is only used among males. What do females say? You guess it. They often say Hey, 11 .. If you 12 an Australian, you may hear G39。day, mate. It means 13 You can respond with the same G39。day. However, there is no 14 to say hello to each other. If you can39。t remember all of the above, just choose How are you?. This is the 15 mon and standard way for people of all ages. You can reply with Pretty good.
