What's in a first name? ln many countries, it's the last. Dear Allen, I have a

problem. My name

Dear Yin,

is Chinese. lt's

Zhang Yin. Zhang is my last name and Yin is my first name. ln China, family names are first and given names are last. l'm a salesman and I often travel to English-speaking countries for business. When I fill out a personal information form in English, I write Yin in the box for first name and Zhang in the box for last name. Then people call me Yin Zhang. When I introduce myself as Zhang Yin, they call me Mr. Yin. So sometimes I say that my name is Yin Zhang. But I don't feel comfortable with that because that isn't my real name. What should I do?

ln English-speaking countries, when you ask, "What's your name?" you always get the person's given name

first and the family name last. ln China, and in many Asian countries, including Japan and Korea, the family name is first and given name

is second. To avoid confusion,

try

introducing yourself like this: "Hi. I'm Zhang Yin. My first name is Yin and my family name is Zhang. Please call me Mr. Zhang."

Read the letters to a health magazine advice column. Dear In-Shape,

I have two health questions for you. I'm an athlete. I play baseball for my university team, and I go running every day.I exercise all the time. I think I m in terrific shape, but I'm worried that I exercise too much. Thatt my first question-how much exercise is too much? My second question is about my diet. I try to eat healthy. I hardly ever eat pizza, fest food, or other snacks. I never drink soft drinks. But I have one really bad habit: I have a sweet tooth! I eat too much chocolate, candy, cake, and ice cream. How can I cut down on sweets?

Dear In-Shape,

I need some exercise advice! I dont feel very healthy. I get tired just walking from my house to my car! My doctor said that I have to exercise more. I'm sure that shet right. I should get out of the house more often. My husband goes running every day, but I never go running with him. I'm a couch potato. My big activiry is watching movies-I watch a movie just about every night. Unforunateh you don't burn many calories watching TV! By the way, the problem is not my diet.

I generally try to fruit.

eat foods that are good for me, like fish, vegetables, and I avoid snacks, and I almost never eat sweets!

Hi, everybody! Well, l'm back from my trip. Last week my husband and I flew to Boston, took a cruise ship to Quebec, took a bus to Montreal, and then flew home. Sounds like a dream vacation, right? Unfortunately my dream turned into a nightmare! You won't believe what happened. First, our flight

was delayed. The airplane had mechanical problems. We waited at the gate for two hours. After we finally took off, I closed my eyes for a nap, but sleeping was impossible. There was a terrible storm, and the flight was bumpy. lt was pretty scary! I tried to watch a movie to stay calm, but the entertainment system wasn't working. The movie didn't have any sound.

The plane landed in Boston at 4:00 p.tvt.-three hours late. Our cruise ship was supposed to depart at 4:30! I ran to a taxi. My face was bright red from running as I gave the directions to the driver. "Please hurry," I added. Luckily, we arrived just in time. We didn't miss the ship! I stood on the ship's deck and enjoyed the scenic views. However, the awful weather continued. I got seasick. EarlieC my face turned red from runnrng.

On the deck, I turned green from the ship's motion. I was seasick the whole cruise! What else could go wrong? A lot! Our bus to Montreal had an accident. No one was hurt, but we were delayed for an hour. Two days latel our flight home was overbooked. We got bumped from the plane and had to wait for the next flight. As you can guess, I'm very happy to be home. Howeve6 I still have one big problem. The airline lost my luggage! Most of my clothing was in my bags, so now I have nothing to wear. Are you looking for a relaxing vacation? Then l, Bettine, have some advice for you-you should stay home!

Now read the sentences. Check true or false.

Bargaining Customs around the World Bargaining customs are very different around the world. Few would go shopping in another country without knowing the exchange rate. However, many travelers don't learn anything about the local shopping customs of the place they are visiting before spending money. Understanding when it's OKto bargain can saveyou a lotof money and make your shopping experience much more enjoyable. ln some countries, bargaining is an important part of the shopping culture. ln others, bargaining is not done at all. Here's a bargainrng guide for some countries around the world:

Morocco: Bargaining

is always expected in

the shopping markets. Here bargaining

more than just getting the best price. lf you go into a shop and agree to the first price a seller offers, the seller may not be happy. For Moroccans, bargaining is a form of

entertainment; it's a game of skill, a little bit of acting, and it's a chance to chat about the weather, business, and family. So be sure to have fun and try to get a better pricel

New York City: Bargaining is not the custom here. Shop clerks can almost never give you a lower price. However, some hotels may give you a lower rate during the less popular times of year. lt can't hurt to ask.

Tahitir Bargaining

is not appropriate in the South Pacific. ln

fact, it is considered disrespectful to ask for a better price. ln the food markets, sellers will even take their fruits and vegetables back home with them, rather than give a discount!

true 1. Bargaining customs are similar around the world.

2. Generally, market sellers in Morocco love to bargain. 3. ln New York City, it's OK to bargain for a cheaper hotel room. 4. lt can't hurt to ask a fruit seller in Tahiti for a lower price.
