1. Sweden
瑞典
Keep personal distance and don’t touch people when you talk to them. Ensure proper table manners, never discuss religion or politics, and try to maintain a level of quiet dignity. Silences during conversations are not considered uncomfortable, and it’s better to be a bit quiet, rather than overly verbose. When dining out, don’t drink before the host offers a toast, and don’t get drunk.
和人说话的时，要保持一定的距离不要碰到对方。注意正确的餐桌礼仪，不要讨论宗教或政治话题，还有尽量做到有自尊。在谈话中保持沉默并不会让人感到有不舒服的感觉，适当的安静比太过啰嗦反倒好。外出就餐时，主人端上面包之前不要喝酒，而且不要喝醉。
2. Mexico
墨西哥
When meeting others, women should initiate handshakes with men, but all people should avoid making too much eye contact; that can be seen as aggressive and belligerentbehavior. If sharing a meal with others, keep your elbows off the table and try to avoid burping at all costs. Keep your hands off your hips, and make sure you never make the “okay” sign with your hand: it’s vulgar.
男女见面时，女人应该主动与男人握手，但不要有太多的目光接触；总有眼神接触会被看作是积极好战的行为。如果与他人一起吃饭，不要把你的手肘放在桌子上，不要打嗝。不要把手放在臀部上，而且不要做“OK”的手势，这个手势粗俗之至。
3. Germany
德国
Much like Scandinavian people, Germans tend to be reserved and polite. Ensure that handshakes are firm, and always 、address people with Mr. or Mrs. followed by their surname (“Herr” or “Frau” if you’re confident that you’ll pronounce them well). Decent table manners are of great importance, and be sure to say “please” and “thank you” often.
德国人和斯堪的纳维亚人一样都倾向于保守和礼貌。握手时要牢牢握紧，在姓前加上先生或太太的称呼（如果你对自己的德语发音自信的话，要用德语称呼“先生”或“夫人”）。良好的餐桌礼仪非常重要，“请”和“谢谢”一定要常挂嘴边。
4. China
中国
Be generous with saying “thank you” when someone does anything from pouring you tea to offering you a gift, and if or when you receive a gift, take it with both hands. If someone makes a comment about your weight/appearance/idiosyncrasy, try not to take it as offensive: it’s merely an observation on their part.
当有人给你倒茶给你送礼物时，不要吝惜说“谢谢”，并且如果你收到礼物或当你收到礼物时，要用双手接礼物。如果有人评论你的体重/外表/特质，尽量不要视为是有冒犯之意：那只不过是对你个人外表长相和性格特质的一种表象观察印象而已。
5. Pakistan
巴基斯坦
Be sure to dress modestly (especially if you’re female), and if you go out for a meal, eat with your right hand; the left is considered unclean. Sit on your left hand if you need to, but keep it away from your food. Don’t show anyone the bottom of your shoe, and try not to touch anyone with your feet.
穿着一定要得体（尤其是女性更要注意衣着得体这点），如果你出去吃饭，用右手吃饭；左手被认为是不洁净的。如果需要坐的话，坐在你的左手边，但左手不要碰食物。不要把脚抬起来，你的脚尽量不要碰到对方。
