Africans, for ex- ample, are far less (47)______ in their greetings than Europeans. Expect a warm physical greeting, an ex- tended handshake or a hand on the shoulder in most African cultures.

Don’t interpret a soft hand-shake or lack of eye contact as a sign of weakness or lack of aggression. It simply means that your Chinese colleague is, not overly (56)______ to physical contact when greeting a stranger.
