Numbers in different countries may have different meanings. In China, some people think that some numbers bring them 16 .

For many foreigners, Chinese are the best hosts and the worst guests in the world. In fact, they are not really bad guests, because the guest-host relationship in China is quite different from that in western countries. In China, guests are almost like gods. Whenever I enter a Chinese person’s home, there is always fruit on the table, and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water. In the west, the guest is not a god. Acting according to the host’s way of doing things is common for a guest.
My wife’s mother doesn’t smoke. When I see some guests smoking in her house, as a non-smoker (不抽烟的人), I feel unhappy. Usually I want to stop them, but I must know that in China, to be a good host, she must not do that. In America, if you are a guest, and the hosts are not smokers, you should not smoke in their home. At least, you could ask, “Is it OK if I smoke ” But don’t be surprised if they say, “No, you can’t smoke.”
Guests in China also have some special habits. Some western people may not adapt to these habits very soon. Luckily, my wife is a Chinese. Whenever we visit a Chinese family she tells me to buy them a gift. However, giving a gift to host is not always needed in my country. So if you invite foreign guests to your home, don’t be too surprised if they don’t bring you a gift. And if western hosts invite you to their home, try not to be too surprised if their style of treating you is not what you expected.

“Fall” and “Autumn”
What season is it in October If you ask people from UK, they will tell you it’s “autumn”. But if you go to US, you will find that people use “autumn” or “fall”.
According toDictionary.com, both words have been around for a long time, but neither of them was first to describe this season. During this season, crops would become ripe(成熟)and farmers would have a big harvest. So in Old English, this season was simply called “harvest”.
Then, in the 1600s, more people left their farms and moved to cities. With fewer people farming, the word “harvest” became less useful. English speakers needed a different name for the season. They knew leaves fell from trees during the season, so people started calling it “the fall of the leaf”, or “fall” for short.
But at the end of the 1600s, autumn, from the French word “autompne” and the Latin “autumnus”, came to English. “Fall” as the word for this season disappeared slowly.
At the same time, people in UK were making their first trip to North America. They brought the words “fall” and “autumn” with them. That’s why today Americans have two names for one season.
60.What do people call the season in October in UK
61.Why did people call this season “harvest” in Old English
