补充:跟美国人聊天的禁忌话题
Age
Age is a very sensitive subject to many Americans, especially to women over age30.
Culture: youth upheld。
Many Americans work hard to maintain a youthful appearance.
“How old are you exactly “ is the last thing they want to be asked, and they think this question is unthinkable.
Anyhow, it’s difficult to always avoid conversation landmines, so be sensible, watch your steps and try not to open a can of worms.
Weight
Americans very much mind their weight and rarely disclose how much they weigh…even if they are thin and in great shape. Therefore, you best not to ask.
如果要谈论可以说：you look great， very healthy looking等等
Income
You should never ask how much someone’s salary is. There‘s no way around this one. However, it’s perfectly suitable to ask about their job title and what they do for a living. This information should give you some idea how much they make a year.
