《Unit 12 Youre supposed to shake hands-初次见面的礼节》文章素材 学英语会话的朋友，大都知道初次被人引介时，要向对方问候"How do you do？"这句问候语虽然是疑问句(interrogative)的形式，但事实上如同叙述句(statement)，句尾语调要下降，对方的回答也总是重复一遍"How do you do？"时间许可的话可以再加一句 "Im glad to meet you." 替初次见面的人互相介绍时，一般的顺序是这样的：1. 把男士介绍给女士，因为这表示女士为尊例如："Mrs. Green, may I introduce Mr. Brown？" 或："Mrs. Green, this is Mr. Brown." 或："Mrs. Green, Mr. Brown."也可以. 2. 把陪客(或位卑年幼者)介绍给主客(或位尊年高者)，即先说主客的名字，再说陪客的名字 3. 平辈间的聚会，彼此间直呼其名的(on a first-name basis) ，可作如下的介绍："Helen (Green), this is Peter(Brown)." 被介绍的男士，彼此之间通常握手为礼。

女士彼此之间通常不握手女士和男士之间，必须由女士先伸出手，男士才可轻握一下为礼有些女士不习惯握手，她们不伸手时，也不表示失礼，男士切莫着急 Host: Mrs. Green, Id like to introduce my boss, Mr. Brown. Mrs. Green: How do you do？ Mr. Brown: How do you do？Im very glad to meet you. Mrs. Green: Nice to meet you, too.结语： 男士在座而有女客进入时，男士应起立，一直等到那位女士入座或离去时，男士才可恢复入座如果后进来的男士被主人带到原先在座的男士们面前一一介绍时，在座的男士也应起立握手为礼 ■「约」而后「会」 西方人的惯例，不管是公事或私事，在拜访之前一定要事先约好(make an appointment)，只有至亲好友(真正好朋友)，才有资格做「不速之客」(drop in without notice )在公事上，主管之间的约会常由秘书(secretaries)排定 Secretary: Good morning. Im Mr. Browns secretary. What can I do for you？ Visitor: I am Peter Smith of the ABC Company. I have an appointment with Mr. Brown. Secretary: Mr. Brown is on the phone right now. Would you please wait a few moments？ Visitor: Certainly？ Secretary: Please have a seat. Visitor: Thank you. **** Secretary: (to Mr. Brown)Mr. Smith is here for his nine oclock appointment. May I bring him in？ Mr. Brown: Yes, please do. Secretary: (to Mr. Smith) Please come with me, Mr. Smith.。
