In the United States, people greet each other with a handshake in a formal introduction. The handshake must be firm. If the handshake is weak, it is a sign of weakness or unfriendliness. Friends may place a hand on the other’s arm or shoulder. Some people, usually women, greet a friend with a hug.
Space is important to Americans. When two people talk to each other, they usually stand about two and a half feet away and at an angle, so they are not facing each other directly. Americans get uncomfortable when a person stands too close. They will move back to have their space. If Americans touch another person by accident, they say “Pardon me” or “Excuse me”.
Americans like to look the other person in the eye when they are talking. If you don’t do so, it means you are bored, hiding something, or are not interested. But when you stare at someone, it is not polite.
Learning a culture’s body language is sometimes confusing. If you don’t know what to do, the safest thing to do is to smile.25、Suppose you are meeting a new customer from the United States, how will you greet him?()

To whom it may concern,
As my watch (model: 5M43-0B19, S/N: 6D8256) was clearly in need of repair, I recently took it to the Lexington Repair Center where the defective components in the watches are repaired. To my surprise, my request for the repairs to be billed to your company was declined in spite of the fact that there are still three years remaining in the coverage period. As there are no other authorized service centers in my area, I decided to pay for the repairs myself.
The following are the charges billed by the service center:
Parts:
New mainspring...........$23
New hour hand.............$8
New battery...................$5
Labor.............................$34
Total..............................$70
Showing prices including tax
I have included a copy of the receipt I got for the repairs and a copy of my warranty certificate. Please let me know if you need any additional information.
Regards,
Tomas Rodriguez
