In the USA,conversation is less lively than in many other cultures,where everyone talks at the same time.......



Some people say that Americans talk about their feelings more than Asians,but are more secretive about factual matters......

A highly personal conversation can take place after a very short period of knowing someone,but this doesn’t mean that you’re close friends,or the relationship is very deep.But a lot of people are very friendly and hospitable,and the famous invitation “If you’re ever in Minneapolis/San Diego/Poughkeepsie,do call by and see us!” is never made without a genuine desire to meet again.
But while few Ameriicans will worry about the questions you may ask,particularly if you clearly show you’re aware of cultural differences , they may hesitate before they ask you similar questions. In fact,it’s a sign that they don’t wish to violate your private life.So,many Americans will talk about safe topics because they don’t dare to be too curious or personal , but will happily talk about more private matters if you take the lead......

在美国，对话不像许多其它文化（国家）中那样生动，在那些国家中，每个人同时说话。。。

有些人说，美国人比亚洲人更多地谈论他们的感觉，但是对事实比较遮遮掩掩。。。

在认识某人很短时间后就可以开始很个人化的对话，但是这不意味着你们是密友，或者关系非常深。但是许多人是很友好和好客的，著名的邀请“如果你来明尼阿波利斯/圣地亚哥/Poughkeepsie（对不起，查不到这个地名），一定要给我们打电话并来看我们!”确实是真的希望再次见面。

但是虽然很少有美国人担心你可能问的问题，特别是如果你很明确地表明你意识到文化的差别，他们在问你类似的问题前可能犹豫。事实上，这是一个迹象，他们不想侵犯你的私生活。因此，许多美国人将谈论安全的话题，因为他们不敢太好奇或个人化，但是如果你主动谈，他们将很高兴谈论更多私人化的事情。。。
