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.

Rather, get into the spirit and appreciate that the person you came to see is prepared to take the time to sincerely (51)______ about your welfare.
In Argentina, greetings are usually effusive(过分热情的) with plenty of hugging and (52)______, not unlike the French faire la bise (kiss on both cheeks). This is even the case in business meetings, unless they are of a highly formal nature. In Argentina, men kiss women, women kiss women, (53)______ men do not kiss men.

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.
