information in 2a and 2b. 2d Roleplay the conversation. Katie: How was the wele party for foreign students last night? John: Great! I made some new friends. But a funny thing happened. Katie: What? John: I met a Japanese boy called Sato, and as soon as I held out my hand, he bowed. Katie: That’s how people in Japan are expected to greet each other. It’s impolite if you don’t bow. John: I didn’t know that. So I just stood there with my hand out. Finally, I returned the bow. Katie: I remember when I first met Katie last year, I did the same thing. I held out my hand and to my surprise, she kissed me on both sides of my face! John: I wouldn’t mind that! Katie: Very funny. Later I found out French people are supposed to kiss when they see each other. There are many countries in the world. Each country has its own culture and customs. After class, try to find more information about them. Thank you for listening!
