Dear Chris,
I'm glad to know that you're interested in Chinese social manners.China is a country with a long history, so there are many customs here. Let me tell you some of them. Firstly, you are supposed to shake hands when you meet someone for the first time. Secondly, you should bring a gift when you are invited to a party and be sure to arrive on time or a few minutes earlier. Thirdly, when you eat meals with others, it's impolite to point at others with your chopsticks or stick your chopsticks into the food. And don't make noise while eating.
I hope the above is helpful. Please feel free to ask for more information.
Yours,
Li Hua

我很高兴知道你对中国的社交礼仪感兴趣。中国是一个历史悠久的国家,所以这里有很多习俗。让我告诉你其中的一些。首先,当你第一次见到某人时,你应该握手。其次,当你被邀请参加聚会时,你应该带上礼物,并确保准时或提前几分钟到达。第三,当你和别人一起吃饭时,用筷子指着别人或把筷子伸进食物里是不礼貌的。吃饭时不要发出噪音。
我希望以上内容能有所帮助。请随时询问更多的信息。

Dear Mike,
Everything goes well with me. I’m so happy to hear that you will come to China next week. As we all know, different countries have different rules about table manners. Now I’d like to tell you how to behave at the dinner table in China.
To start with,one important thing is that you’re not supposed to start eating first if there are older people at the table. Another thing you need to know is that you shouldn’t talk when you’re eating dinner. You do remember that you shouldn’t point at anyone with your chopsticks. It is considered as impolite behavior in China.
Sichuan is a good place with some great places of interest. I think you can pay a visit to Emei Mountain, which is famous for its natural beauty and historical relics.
Look forward to your coming!
All the best!
Li Hua
