11．I Never Know When to Shake 1 Hands 我该什么时候握手
A: I have a real 2 problem 3 when I meet people.
B: What is it? Maybe I can help.
A: I never know when to shake hands and when not to. Can you tell me something about it?
B: Do you come from a country where they shake hands?
A: Oh yes. Men, women, and children shake hands all the time.
B: It’s very simple 4. Men shake hands, women and children don’t.
A: But some women do shake hands. And now a lot of children have such 5 good manners 6, they shake hands too.
B: Well, a good rule to follow is, for men you hold out your hand, for women and children, you wait and see what they do.
A: That sounds easy enough.
B: Sure. Once you get the hang 7 of it, it’s a piece of cake! It’s nothing to worry about.
译文：
A: 我在和人会面的时候有个问题。
B: 什么疑问？或许我能帮你。
A: 我不知道该在什么时候握手，什么时候不握手。你能不能告诉我有关这方面的事?
B: 你们国家的人握手吗?
A: 握呀。男人、女人、小孩、时时刻刻都在握手。
B: 那很简单。男人握手，女人和小孩不握。
A: 可是有些女人也握手呀。而且现在很多有礼貌的孩子也握手。
B: 你就遵循这条原则：对男人你先伸手，对女人和孩子就看他们怎么做。
A: 这听上去再简单不过了。
B: 可不是嘛。你一旦掌握了窍门，那就成了小菜一碟！没什么可担心的。
