Today, a number of people all over the world have the same interests. For instance, people watch the same movies and wear the same clothes. They look similar to each other in many ways. However, the cultures are still quite different. In the East and in the West, social (社会的) rules are not the same.
In the East, it can take a long time to become someone’s friend. After that, people are very close to their friends. When people from the West meet you, they will call you a friend right away. However, that doesn’t mean they are close to you.
When people from the East meet you, they often ask questions. They want to know about your age, your salary (薪水), and if you have a family. To people from the West, these are not good questions. They don’t like to talk about these personal things.
Family is important to everyone. However, in the East, family is always a part of life. Kids there live with their parents for a long time. They will listen to their parents after they grow up.
In the West, independence (独立) is very important. Parents get something ready for their kids for life. Then, after their kids grow up, they say goodbye and leave home. Later, the kids can choose to start a family or not. They don’t have to listen to their parents.
In the East and in the West, people think differently, too. People in the West think about small things. They also think less and act more. So, they will talk loudly about their ideas. In the East, people care about relationships (关系) between things or persons, and they often keep their ideas quiet. That keeps relationships happy.

.For example. B.In fact. C.At first. D.Of course.

On August 14, 2011, Russia showed plans for a hotel in space about 217 miles up, which would hold 7 guests in 4 cabins (客舱) and have huge windows for views (视域) of the Earth turning below. A 5-day stay will cost 100,000, besides 500,000 for the journey.
