Lesson: 课文
Don't be a Rude Dude! (an impolite person) 别作鲁莽人－－这是第一次有人告诉你不应做什么！
What is rude, and what is polite is different in every culture. Each lesson we will discuss some things that many Chine do that can be considered rude, or not polite in the Western business and social world. We will give you advice on you what NOT to say or do. Remember, don't be a Rude Dude!
在每一种文化里，礼貌和粗鲁的定义是不同的。在每一单元中，我们会讲一些中国人很有可能作但实际上是显得粗鲁的事情，或在西方社会中被认为是没有礼貌的事情。我们会给你一些建议，告诉你什么不能说或不应做。－－别作鲁莽人。
In business ttings, one should never:
1) Never offer a foreigner a cigarette. Smoking kills. Don't kill anyone, that is RUDE, and it smells. Smokers smell. PLEASE DON'T SMOKE!
永远不要给一个外国人递烟。抽烟对身体有害。不要伤害别人的身体，否则就是不礼貌
的事情，而且抽烟有气味。你闻到了怪味吗？禁止抽烟！
2) Never criticize someone for wanting to go Dutch or share the bill. In the West, people share the bill to show equal respect. Try going Dutch, it is cheaper, and it shows equality!

如果你需要吐痰，清洁你的鼻子或抠耳朵，在洗手间里完成这些工作，那里没人看见你。在办公室或公共场合，不要作一个粗鲁的人。
DIALOGUE

Gordon: Not much. Are you hungry?
Molly: Why yes. Why do you ask? Do you want to go get some grub (food)?
Gordon: May I treat you to dinner at Pizza Hut tonight?
Molly: I'd love to go with you, but I want equal respect. Let's go Dutch if that is all right with you?
Gordon: No problem, anything for you.
Molly: Anything?

I saw you once. It was disgusting. You had left food in your beard. Don't you know that is improper behavior?
Gordon: Girls sure do love to criticize their boyfriends. I bet if I treated you,
instead of going Dutch, you wouldn't criticize me as much.
Molly: Right you are. However, you don't have enough money to treat me everyday.
Gordon: One day I will have enough money to treat many beautiful girls to dinner. Then you will be so jealous!
Molly: In your dreams! The girls will all laugh at you becau you pick food out of your beard.
Gordon: You are a rude dude, but I love you. So I forgive you. Let's go eat. Molly: A hungry boy is easy to control.
