Being shy keeps many Chinese people from getting to know Westerners．You may feel nervous about making language mistakes in front of a native English speaker．

    But remember，Westerners living in Asia know how it feels to try to communicate(交流)in a foreign language．They have made many mistakes when speaking Chinese．

    So don′t worry that you cannot speak perfect English．The important thing is simply to communicate．Start talking，and find some friends today．

    Many Westerners value(注重)their privacy(隐私)．Don′t be surprised if your new friend doesn′t include you in everything he does．This may seem strange to Chinese who worry that their friends will get lonely．

    Chinese people often want their good friends to give advice and take care of them in many ways．If you expect(期望)this kind of care from Westerners，you may be frustrated. Why? Because most Westerners value independence．They feel unhappy if others think they can′t take care of themselves．

    Of course，these tips are just rules of thumb(经验之谈)and may not be true with all Westerners．Each person will have his or her own ideas about friendship．When you get confused(迷惑的)，don′t worry to ask questions．Your new Western friends also have many questions about Chinese culture，and they may be hesitant(犹豫)to ask…So encourage them to ask questions，too．

    Be honest and open to your friends．Respect each other′s differences．The friendship you make can be lifelong treasure(财富)for you and for your new friends．

Everyone has got two personalities — the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real. You don't show your secret personality when you're awake because you can control yourself, but when you're asleep, your sleeping positionshows the real you. In a normal night, of course, you often change your sleeping positions（姿势）. The important position that best shows your secret personality is the one that you go to sleep.
If you go to sleep on your back, you're a very open person. You normally trust（信任） people and you are easily influenced by new ideas. You don't like to make people unhappy, so you never express your real feelings. You're quite shy and you aren't very confident.
If you sleep on your stomach, you are a person who likes to keep secrets. You worry a lot and you're always easily becoming sad. You never want to change your ideas, but you are satisfied with your life the way it is. You usually live for today not for tomorrow.
If you sleep on curled up (蜷缩), you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and often protect yourself from being hurt, so you are very defensive. You're shy and you don't usually like meeting people. You like to be on your own.
If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced personality. You know your strength and weakness. You're usually careful. You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel worried, but you don't often get unhappy. You always say what you think, even if it makes people angry.
