What is more popular for American immigrants to treat and give gifts?

American immigrant life: what is more popular as a treat and gift? China, known as the country of etiquette, attaches great importance to treating guests and giving gifts. So I found that many people are worried about giving gifts to Americans. However, many people bring gifts from China all the way, but they dare not compliment and even make others feel at a loss, so I want to write about this topic for your reference.

First of all, you should know that Americans don't care much about giving gifts, especially when students send their teachers. Teachers have no psychological presupposition of accepting students' gifts. Therefore, foreign students who come here to study don't need to give gifts at all. If you have a good relationship, you can send them later. Second, the amount must not be too large. Anything with $65,438+00-20 can be used. An expensive gift will make the host very uneasy. If it is for the boss, it is even more inappropriate to send expensive gifts, because it may cause unnecessary speculation. It's always right for others to invite you to dinner and send wine (if the host is a Christian who doesn't drink or something, you can't send it). I made low-level mistakes when I first came here. My American colleague held a party at home. I asked what to bring, and she said, bring something you like to drink. I don't drink myself, so I foolishly took a few cans of coke, only to find that what I drink on this occasion usually refers to alcohol. If you are visiting a patient, it is not bad to send a bunch of flowers on your birthday, which is generally not wrong, so the most important thing to send a gift in the United States is the occasion. Immigrant expenses, immigration conditions, immigration policies, and the investment of immigration agents in China handicrafts are the choices that many people mistakenly think are given to Americans. In fact, few Americans really like China folk handicrafts, and most of them are shelved. But exquisite and practical handicrafts can still be sent, such as carpenter Tan's comb mirror, beautiful fans and exquisite jewelry boxes. The key is that the workmanship must be particularly good. Forget Beijing Opera. Few Americans have seen Peking Opera, but children still find facial makeup scary. Cloisonne things are too rampant, and they are free. Clay figurines, paper-cuts and traditional Chinese paintings, authentic China goods, are rarely appreciated by Americans. Don't send embroidery that is not very delicate. Another misunderstanding is that Americans like to drink China tea. In fact, almost all of them drink bagged tea and give them our loose tea. They have no idea what to do! I once sent tea to my American friend, but I had to buy her a teapot with a filter before she could drink it. Moreover, almost all Americans drink black tea, and they can't get used to the taste of China tea, especially those who can taste green tea. It's a waste to send tea.
