America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, but disappear soon if situations change. Neither side gets h【1】 by this. They may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while - then no m【2】. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to u【3】, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending（延伸）sometimes deeply into b【4】 families.

Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that a【5】 they treat us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don't show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be g【6】with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as g【7】 to show our best friends around. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly cannot manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine（事務(wù)）. They will be likely to expect us to get ourselves from the a【8】 to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find o【9】 treated hospitably.

For the Americans, it is more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to r【10】, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality（好客）at home!
