1.What kinds of help do family members give each other?
Well, relatives help each other in many different ways. First of all, parents always give advice
to their children, especially when it comes to important questions such as education, career
choices, or issues with relationships. I think it is actually normal for parents to help their children.
It is their responsibility, even their duty to assist the child, even when their child becomes a
grown-up
.
In addition, family members also support each other. They usually encourage each
other, and it's very common in my country to lend money to our relatives if they need it. I think
most Chinese families provide each other with financial help
.
And you know, when our parents
get older, we ask them to come and live with us. It's a cycle: they helped us when we were young,
and we give them a hand when they get old.
2. How important is it to help visitors in your country?
It's extremely important to be welcoming and helpful to foreign tourists
.
Well, actually, we
should be considerate with everyone, not only foreigners
.
I think that it's a national value to be
nice and polite to everyone. The government emphasized this value in 2008, before the Beijing
Olympics
.
They asked everyone in the capital to smile and help visitors. In my hometown, people
are quite friendly and hospitable. People will always treat their guests to tea and some
snacks
.
However, I guess that in the city, things are a little different. There are so many people;
people don't care so much about others.
