Unluckily, this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the United States. I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese rest

13、aurant. One time, when I was serving food to a middle-aged couple, the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly.

14、appened to hear what I said, took me aside and gave me a long lecture about how sensitive(敏感) Americans are and how they dislike the description “old”. I then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife. After the couple heard my reason, they understood that the problem was caused by cultura

15、l differences, so they laughed and were no longer angry. In my village in China, people are proud of being old.
