該書由101個故事構成,每個故事都是作者、作者的傢庭以及朋友親身經曆的事情。讀來讓人覺得詼諧幽默的同時也讓讀者明白在和中國人打交道的時候,什麼該做、什麼不可以做。有些故事介紹中國的禮節、傳授如何購物、如何討價還價等等;有些故事會指導讀者如何避免尷尬和難堪;還有些故事解釋瞭一些在外國人看來難以理解、甚至似乎讓人“討厭”的中國人的舉止。此外,作者會在每個故事後麵加上評論,嚮讀者說明中國人為什麼會這麼做,以及在這種情況下外國人明智的反應。
In 101 Stories for foreigners to Understand Chinese People,Yi and Bryan Ellis tell stories about their experiences living in China to introduce elements of Chinese culture,etiquette and interpersonal interaction. When they moved from New York City to Shanghai three years ago, they read several guide books and thought they were prepared. But dozens of small yet significant cultural differences caught them by surprise! Three years (and numerous faux pas, misunderstandings and misinterpretations) later, they have written this book to help readers benefit from their experiences. Their stories explain both the "what's" and the "why's" of Chinese customs, so that readers can better understand and appreciate the Chinese way of thinking and living. Often,what seems bizarre and strange at first makes perfect sense if you see it from a Chinese perspective. Yi and Bryan have enjoyed learning about Chinese culture and hope that the readers will enjoy this journey of discovery as well.
3.Mrs.Wang’s Husband Is Not Mr.Wang
A good friend Of mine is a very successful Chinese busincss woman work.ing for an American firm.On a visit to China,her American boss invited myfriend and her husband to dinner.My friend’s last name is Wang,so when theAmerican boss met her husband,he shook his hand warmly and said.“Ah,youmust be Mr.Wang.It’s so good to meet you.’’My friend’s husband replied.“It’snice to meet you,too.But actually,I am not Mr.Wang,I am Mr.Liu.”
In mainland China,almost every Chinese woman marrying a Chinesehusband keeps her maiden name after marriage.This has been the customsince 1949 when the Chinese Communist Party began to rulethe country.Un-dcr communism,women and men are supposed to be equal.In fact,a popularslogan in thc 1950s says that“Women hold up half of the sky.”Maintainingone’s maiden name is also a sign of women“independence from men.Today,it is less a political or social statement than it is a habit.I know no mainlandChinese woman who changed her sumame after marriage.In contrast mostChinese women in Hong Kong and inTaiwan will add their husband’s surnarne to their own sO that their names begin with two surnames.
So next time you meet a Chinese couple in China,remember that Mrs.Wang’s husband is not Mr.Wang!
